      Why is the MAGA movement so susceptible to crazy conspiracy theories?

      Yeah. Nothing says democracy like a cabal of powerful people, mostly from the left, changing the laws and controlling the flow of information to keep one candidate from getting elected. And the TIME article is them bragging about it.

      Trump’s top general calls ex-president ‘fascist to the core’

      And how many of our little Trump-hating leftists here met Trump? Have you met Trump, Biden, Harris, or Waltz?🤣 One doesn't have to meet Trump to like his polices and the results he delivered during his presidency, as opposed to Biden/Harris and the proposed Harris/Waltz, who'll be even worse. Which makes you . . . ?🤣 The lone guy, a New York Democrat, is a kind of Everyman who's merely opened his mind, rejected leftist brainwashing, done the research, not only listened to your fake news, observed the results and has the evidence of the results. And he gives the lie to that nonsense about "cultists" and "goobers" we love to repeat here, to assert spurious superiority. Further, it turns out that half the electorate agree with the lone guy. WOT? Maybe he's not lone after all. Note that you can't refute anything he says. "Lone" isn't a refutation but a knee-jerk variation of the usual name-calling that has to substitute for rational thinking. That'll do for our leftist peanut gallery, however.

      Foreign Tour Operators Flood Phuket, Taking Jobs from Locals

      Which law? You still provided no evidence of the "cutting lawns" law. Did you use, or devise AN policies to "discipline" other posters, or not? You're a lackey, or even higher, with a "suiting" WP, or not? Lol. "Smarts" like u can't allege me of "abusing", or ask me for "politeness"! I was, and I'm still "polite". You obviously can't get, or don't want to get a glance about what I wrote. Further, I doubt, that you're in any position to tell me where, and what I post! "Stupidity" (it's the empathic version!), or the typical deliberate fact-denying, -neglecting "smart-AH" attitude? Always insisting, that the own (or from others) created narrative is the (only), but superior truth. In short: "Sympathy for the pathetics!

      Sending food back to the kitchen?

      The thing is very simple here, as there are ground rules foe how to serve food world wide. It just doesn´t cut it to say that is not how it´s done here. Dining and restaurants are hospitality businesses, which have a certain code for professionalism. If diners at a table order food at the same time, they shall also receive their food at the same time, so that they can enjoy their dinner together. if the diners at the table order appetizers, main courses, side orders and desserts they should be served: Appetizers Main courses + side orders Desserts Anything else is to be seen as a bad service seen from the perspective of international level. Sure, if Thailand doesn´t want to be seen as a country who cares about their visitors and customers, that will be totally up to them. However, it can never been seen as a good service from owners, chefs or other restaurant personal who cares for there diners culinary experience. Same if you order a certain dish, with a certain which how it should be cooked, and it arrives as something that is not cooked that way, you will have the right to send it back. Sure, if you go to a very low quality restaurant out in nowhere, you might need to have more tolerance with certain mistakes, but you should not need to. I also know that we are all different, in the way how much we accept and what we are reacting on. That is also up to the specific individual. However, to get food served in the wrong way, order and/or have it served without being properly cooked can never be excused with that´s the way they do it. It´s just very poor respect for diners and only a wish that they eat as quick as possible, pay and get out.

Arrest Near Trump Rally Uncovers Weapons, Fake Passports

Authorities arrested a man carrying two firearms and fake passports near a Donald Trump rally in Coachella, California, on Saturday. The suspect, 49-year-old Vem Miller, was found in illegal possession of both a shotgun and a loaded handgun. He was stopped at a security checkpoint while driving a black SUV, where deputies also discovered a high-capacity magazine.

 

Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, commenting on the arrest, expressed that while it was impossible to know the exact intent of the suspect, he "truly believed" that his officers had thwarted what could have been a third assassination attempt. However, the sheriff admitted, "it might be impossible to prove" that this was the suspect's actual goal. Referring to the man as a "lunatic," Bianco refrained from speculating further about the potential motives behind the suspect’s actions.

 

The incident occurred at 4:59 PM PDT, just an hour before Donald Trump was due to speak at the rally. The U.S. Secret Service confirmed that Trump was never in danger and that the security breach did not interfere with protective measures for the former president. Despite the intense security surrounding Trump, this arrest served as a stark reminder of the dangers he continues to face, especially with the election just weeks away.

 

Mr. Miller was taken into custody without resistance and later charged with two misdemeanor weapons offenses. He was released on a $5,000 bail, and no federal charges have been brought against him at this time. Sheriff Bianco revealed that federal authorities are still investigating the case and will determine whether additional charges will be pursued.

 

During a news conference on Sunday, Sheriff Bianco revealed that the vehicle in which Miller was traveling had multiple fake passports and driver’s licenses inside. The SUV itself raised suspicions, with an irregular, homemade license plate that was not registered. According to Bianco, Miller "gave all indications that he was allowed to be there" as he approached the outer perimeter of the rally. However, as he moved closer to the inner perimeter, numerous "irregularities popped up."

 

Despite the alarming details of the case, a federal law enforcement official told CBS News that there was no indication of an assassination attempt tied to this incident. Nonetheless, the investigation is ongoing, and authorities continue to search for answers regarding Miller’s intentions.

 

Sheriff Bianco dismissed questions about the suspect’s political affiliations, reiterating his belief that the man’s behavior was more attributable to being a "lunatic" than any organized political agenda.
