No concern from me, actually I am glad he is firing the Biden appointed Justice Department prosecutors as old Biden weaponized the Justice Department and the FBI.

Yep. Most would have to via coalition process, so some balance. Not so with the current US government owning both Houses. Plus of course the ongoing very active process by trump and Co to destroy US institutions who should provide support and enablement of Rule of Law with sycophants e.g. Justice and FBI.

A coalition means nobody was good enough to have a defined win, or 2 partys join to stop another 'undesirables party winning, as happened in Austria last year.

Making a 90 day report first time in a few years.

giddyup · 20 hours ago20 hr

I've been doing online 90 day reports for a few years, but because I'm about to get a new passport I believe the next 90 day has to be done in person. The last time I did a report at Jomtien it was only necessary to present your passport, now I believe there are a couple of forms to fill out. I have been at the same address for 16 years, do I still have to fill out a TM30?

HE started it and now wants NATO to help

Mavideol · Monday at 10:11 AM1 day

this is the joke of the year, the guy started the war with Israel help, didn't consult with anybody, didn't share any information thus no advise was given to him, he didn't prepare for any counter measure that could happen, like the closure of the strait of Hormuz, since he started it on it's own Nato members have nothing to do with it, guess what is his latest decision???? I know it's laughable, he said if the Nato allies don't help him overtaking the strait, they will face a very bad future BT

Trump Snaps At Reporter As War Questions Intensify A heated exchange between Donald Trump and a reporter aboard Air Force One has gone viral, underscoring growing pressure on the president over the expanding war with Iran. During a press gaggle, a female journalist asked Trump to explain the deployment of 5,000 U.S. Marines and sailors to the region — a question that appeared to trigger an immediate and sharp reaction. “You’re a very obnoxious person,” Trump shot back, before cutting her off

So Why did Trump Start this War?

Wingate · March 10Mar 10

So why did Trump decide to start a war with Iran? Does he even know? Does anyone in his Administration know? Why he is now trying to declare victory and call it off is readily apparent: oil and the stock market. Trump saw oil approaching $120/bbl and Dow futures down 1200 pts pre-market on Monday and decided to make up a definition for “victory”, claim he had achieved it, and do it WHILE the markets were open (I’ll also guess his buddies and sons went long equity futures and short oil before T

How could USA-Trump have so vastly underestimated Iran's military?

GammaGlobulin · Friday at 06:30 PM4 days

Dear Folks, And now a word from CGTN, directly out of Beijing, to explain the US-Israeli-Iran war, without the propaganda, by the way. The other question is: Is Israel now destroying itself from within, just through practicing war on it's neighbors, and perhaps committing genocide? And, is Israel now nothing but a rogue state? We will never get the truth from Trump, nor Hagseth, and should we even expect it? Thankfully; thanks to China's news service, and mostly to Jeff Sachs, we still do ha

glad none of the countries, he asked to join in, are willing to step into, they all said no and now even one of US military commander, that served in Europe, has something to say and the orange will not like it Lieutenant General Hodges, the former commander of the US Army in Europe, told Radio 4′s Today programme: “This is embarrassing for me as an American to hear any American president showing such disdain for any ally, and we are going to regret in the long run as ... nations lose confidence in us, lose trust in us and start finding other ways to look after their strategic interests.” Former US Army General Hits Out At Donald Trump's 'Repulsive' Comments About America's Allies https://au.yahoo.com/news/former-us-army-general-hits-083344048.html

What a manly man you are! Just to clarify, does this mean you'll make an exception for guys who're armed'? Would you go mano-a-mano with a guy if he's packin' a real pistol? Nothing wrong in that, this is a safe space! Back on topic: Hegseth talks like a 14 y/o kid high on testosterone, and with a vocabulary derived solely from playing online war games. He's so utterly out of his league it's embarrassing to watch him during pressers, because deep down he seems to know this himself. The "deer in the headlights" look isn't only because he'd kill for a drink, it's because he really wanna scream "Mommy, I want to go home!"

So no fuel shortage in Thailand. Just panic buying only. In AU also there are queues. Panic buying there too? Maybe it's a global thing now.

Which country's passport is most beautiful? And, why?

GammaGlobulin · 3 hours ago3 hr

Dear Folks, I have, for many years, been so envious of the beauty of the British Passport. It is far more lovely than my own. For example: If you could buy one, which one would you buy? Alternatively, out of all countries on Planet Earth, which country has... \The most beautiful passport.... Aesthetically speaking, of course. How much would you pay for one of these, by the way?

Will Trump back down?

GammaGlobulin · 13 hours ago13 hr

Dear Folks, I have absolutely no idea how to create a “poll”, on TV. However, be that as it may be, what is your opinion? Will Trump back down? Deep in his big heart, Trump knows that the right move, given the reality of his situation, is to finally step down from his high-horse, and just….BACK DOWN. Do you think he is capable for doing so? Yes? No? IMHO, the answer is a definite YES. Trump is easily capable of pragmatically backing down, and getting out of Iran, while the getting is goo

GammaGlobulin · 16 hours ago16 hr

Dear Folks, Ever since the Iran War came into full view, and since the time Hagseth, too, began flexing his muscles, in his too-tight-little suit-jackets, I have been wracking my brain trying to recall the image he most evokes, just based on my many decades of living. Then, wouldn’t you know it? Just about 5-minutes ago, it finally hit me. I know, I know, I shouted. Hagseth is the SPITTING IMAGE of the Dandy song, "Follower of Fashion", first sung by the glorious and very incisive KINKS. Thi
