Judge Rejects Trump’s Immunity Claim in Hush Money Case, Conviction Stands
That reminds me of a joke. What do you call a person who graduates at the bottom of their class in Med School? "Doctor" Trump could have won by a handful of electoral college and popular votes and he'd still be called "President Trump." Bottom line though - he received a significant amount of the vote. I wouldn't necessarily call it "a landslide" but I will call it "a mandate." Now - I'll let all the far-Left progressives on my ignore list who are triggered have their rant which I won't be reading. -

And she did it without whinging about how the election was stolen like some whiny bastard continues to do to this very day. That's how adults behave. -

How Has Thailand’s New Income Tax Law Affected Your Spending Habits?
Now that a year has passed since the Thai government implemented a new personal income tax on all cash transfers into Thailand by foreign residents, I’m curious how this change has affected your lifestyle and spending habits over the past year. Have you found yourself reducing your spending in Thailand and/or canceling or indefinitely postponing any large purchases you were planning to make here? Personally, while I’ve continued spending about the same amount, I’ve made a conscious decision to stop bringing significant sums of money into the country and to avoid keeping it in Thai banks. My Thai bank account balances have been steadily decreasing rather than staying stable or increasing. This approach, I think, isn’t achieving the taxation benefits the Thai government was hoping for. Instead, I’ve started using overseas debit cards for a lot of my spending here. While I understand that, technically, these transactions are also supposed to be reported to the Thai Revenue Department (TRD) and taxed, I’ll be honest, that’s not going to happen. I’m struggling to see how this policy is a win for the Thai government. They aren’t going to collect any income tax from the money I spend in Thailand from my overseas savings, and, like many others, I’ve scaled back on transferring as much cash as possible into Thailand. The result is that they’re likely receiving less revenue from foreigners overall. Maybe this policy benefits the TRD on Thai nationals earning money abroad and transferring it back home. But for foreigners, I think it’s far more likely to discourage spending and investment in the country. In fact, it already serves as a deterrent for retirees and potential long-term residents. If you don’t already have the ฿800,000 in a Thai bank account required for a retirement visa, who’s going to transfer that amount and lose 20% of it to taxes just to meet the visa requirement? This feels like a long-term misstep for Thailand. Policies like this may discourage large purchases, property investments, and even retirement plans for foreigners who might otherwise bring significant amounts of money into the country. The only way I see this policy working in Thailand’s favor is if it were limited to taxing Thai nationals on any overseas income they repatriate while leaving foreigners out of it. That way, foreigners could continue to spend freely, providing a big boost to the Thai economy. -

Trump’s big fat abject lie …and why he keeps telling it.
When COVID first loomed on the horizon in Thailand, I was in the most vulnerable cohort. My GF is 23 years younger than me. I got myself vaccinated with what was available at the time, Sinovac and AZ. My GF refused to do so, thanks to Thai social media and her circle of friends. When we both developed COVID, I was over it in 2-3 days. Sore throat and runny nose, finish. OTOH, my much younger GF was very ill for 11-12 days. QED. IMO social media has a lot to answer for, when, in the name of free speech, it allows totally unqualified quacks and deranged wingnuts to spread misinformation which puts people's lives in danger. -

Gordon Ramsay, TANACHIRA Group opens flagship Bread Street Kitchen & Bar
Bread Street Kitchen & Bar in ICONSIAM | Photo via TANACHIRA Group Globally celebrated multi-Michelin-starred chef Gordon Ramsay, in partnership with Thailand’s leading lifestyle operator TANACHIRA Group, is set to unveil Thailand’s flagship of the chef’s internationally acclaimed Bread Street Kitchen & Bar concept in ICONSIAM, a global landmark along the Chao Phraya River. Opening late 2024, Gordon Ramsay Bread Street Kitchen & Bar at ICONSIAM will be located on Level 3, offering shoppers distinctively British classics and globally-inspired dishes complemented by an exceptional dining experience. This will be the second Bread Street Kitchen & Bar in Thailand with its first located in Emsphere in the EM district. Dining area | Photo via TANACHIRA Group Designed by the award-winning team at Whitespace Bangkok, the 608-square-metre restaurant will encapsulate Bread Street Kitchen’s signature industrial warehouse-inspired aesthetic, reminiscent of its London flagship, St. Paul’s. The stunning space will blend vintage furniture with modern-urban accents, highlighted by the brand’s iconic checkerboard tile flooring. Guests will be drawn to the bar where its copper and steel elements create an industrial yet warm and inviting space, offering the perfect spot to unwind and sip on cocktails or a selection of fine wines. Signature drinks like Ramsay’s G&T and the exclusive Bangkok by the River cocktail, celebrate both the Bread Street Kitchen ethos and the city it now calls home. Warm copper tones and bright canary yellow hues of the main dining room enhance subtle industrial details, adding to the character of rivets and steel lines. Guests will dine in comfortable banquette seating and enjoy sweeping views of the city through sleek floor-to-ceiling glass windows, while the open kitchen will add a theatrical element allowing guests to witness Ramsay-trained chefs in action. Looking up, solid wooden beams cross the ceiling reminiscent of river piers, a thoughtful nod to the restaurant’s scenic riverside location. Walking out onto the terrace will give guests a captivating view of the breathtaking Chao Phraya River and a stunning sunset as the backdrop, setting the scene for guests dining outdoors. A private dining room that seats 12 will feature a standout design of an antique-style mirrored glass wall with an aged surface, creating depth and an illusion of spaciousness. A custom-designed centrepiece table completes this exquisite space perfect for intimate celebrations, private or corporate events.
