Rising Political Extremism in East Germany Signals a Deepening Divide
LOL. Not allowed to vot AfD? In Germany? Seriously? What did you smoke this morning? German secret service spying on AfD members! What a crime! I understand how frustrating it must be for former STASI officers to be jobless, while their western opponents kept their badge and their gun, and are still doing their job. You may ask Putin to send you a few kilograms of polonium, awaiting the beer that will be distributed to celebrate the AfD's victory in Thuringia. It's no mystery that the ex-STASI officers prefer the BSW over the AfD for ideological reasons. And they can still blame the BKA for the poisoning. -

Kamala Harris Drops Bombshells in First Big Interview: 5 Must-See Takeaways
Vice President Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, sat for their first major interview since becoming the Democratic nominees, conducted by CNN’s Dana Bash. The interview, part of their campaign trail in Georgia, aired on Thursday evening, while the actual sit-down was much shorter, interspersed with campaign footage and commercials. Key Takeaways from the Interview Harris Defends Her Policy Shifts Harris tackled her vulnerability regarding frequent changes in her position. She asserted, “My values have not changed,” emphasizing her belief in the dangers of climate change and her past hawkish stance on immigration as California’s attorney general. However, inconsistencies appeared when Bash questioned her stance on fracking and decriminalizing unauthorized border crossings. Harris's responses highlighted her shifting positions without convincingly winning over skeptics. Biden’s Withdrawal from the Race Harris expressed strong loyalty to President Biden, describing his presidency as “transformative” and praising his intelligence and selflessness. She shared a personal anecdote about Biden’s decision to step aside, mentioning her family’s presence during the call. Although she didn’t explicitly ask for Biden’s endorsement, she implied it was a given. When asked about “Bidenomics,” Harris focused on popular aspects of Biden’s economic record without directly labeling it a success, acknowledging both achievements and areas needing improvement. Appealing to Disaffected Republicans Harris aimed to attract undecided voters and moderate Republicans. She suggested an openness to appointing a Republican to her cabinet, emphasizing her career-long commitment to diversity of opinion. This promise was a clear attempt to bridge political divides and reassure conservatives of their representation in her administration. Walz Faces Criticism and Hurdles The decision to pair Harris’s interview with Walz drew some criticism, especially from conservatives, who felt that Harris should have faced the interview solo. Nevertheless, Walz navigated his part of the interview adequately. He addressed past controversial remarks about carrying weapons “in war” and discussed his wife’s fertility treatment candidly. Walz’s most notable moment came when he emotionally recounted his son Gus's pride in his Democratic convention speech, showcasing his relatable side. Trump’s Reaction and Harris’s Strategy Former President Trump called the interview “BORING!!!” on Truth Social. However, this “boring” tone likely benefited Harris. Since Biden’s announcement to step aside, Harris has solidified her nomination, garnered Democratic enthusiasm, and built a robust campaign fund, all while gaining a slight lead over Trump in polls. The interview, although not extraordinary, served its purpose without derailing their momentum. Harris and Walz successfully conducted a major interview, reinforcing their positions and handling critiques without significant missteps. On Thursday, they accomplished a modest yet essential campaign milestone. Conclusion Harris and Walz’s CNN interview, despite some critiques and challenges, reinforced their stance within the Democratic ticket. Harris underscored her policy commitments while addressing inconsistencies in her past positions. Walz, meanwhile, showcased his emotional connection with his family and addressed criticisms candidly. They collectively presented a moderated, uncontroversial vision that aims to attract central and conservative voters, ensuring their campaign’s continued momentum as they edge closer to the elections. -

Pay your Citibank credit card bill - even if you don't have it
Update: well, in the end I was able to open the statement, I did not read the message with which the statement was sent. The password goes like this: your birthday XX Day XX month xxxx year add your last 4 digits of your mobile number registered with UOB, so that could look like: 01Feb19601234, I went to my Bangkok branch at Robinson Surin and the lady who served me was extremely helpful. She was able to put UOB again back into my BBL account. After an initial trial payment of 10 Baht the lady asked me to do, UOB confirmed that they had received the transfer, after that I made the full transfer to UOB and that worked! Voila, this really saved my day! -
