Trumps attacks on free speech

Followers

September 19, 2025Sep 19

This is not a free speech issue.

Peoople can still express their political views freely. Kimmel lied blatantly implying the killer is a MAGA supporter. This obviously offended those people still grieving his death who want the truth about the killing.

So whilst there is still freedom of speech, blatant lying has employment consequences.

In addition cheering on assassination, desecrating memorials, and similar despicable acts will have consequences.

There is still free speech however. It should be noted that Congress has put limits on free speech for decades. So has the Supreme Court. There never was absolute free speech.

Perhaps so,it’s still an attack on free speech by intimidation and a blow to our constitution.

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

giddyup · 17 hours ago17 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?

Anybody care to get out of their bubble and read a reasoned analysis of the present conflict. https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2026/3/16/the-us-israeli-strategy-against-iran-is-working-here-is-why Im sure this will degenerate into the usual Trump deranged nonsense, probably because the analysis is unimpeachable "But the critics are making a different error: They are treating the costs of action as if the costs of inaction were zero. They were not. They were measured in the slow accretion of

Joe Kent, Counterterrorism official in Trump Administration, resigns.

Alan Zweibel · 13 hours ago13 hr

Joe Kent, one of the United States’ top counterterrorism officials, announced his resignation on Tuesday, citing his opposition to the Iran war and what he said was Israel’s influence over the Trump administration’s policies. Here is his resignation letter in full. https://static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics/documenttools/dea3cbf97dbfb39c/1/output-1.png https://archive.ph/R2vUr I may not like his principles, but at least unlike most rightwingers who post here, he doesn't believe that MAGA is Trump an

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

Zelensky to Meet Starmer in UK for New Defence Pact on Drone Warfare

Sydebolle replied to webfact's topic in World News - Discussion

Maybe it is time to get rid of Zelensky and his cronies, once and for good; it is absolutely unbelievable that such a clown tries to blackmail Europe into a corner, for which the Americans don't even get verbally reprimanded.

I had a Kasikorn THB acct before which I used for my yearly extensions. They had web-based & app-based banking. When I asked about a USD acct, the staff told me I had to come into the bank to convert from a USD acct to THB acct. Also, the minimum balance was $5,000 to avoid the monthly fees. Bangkok Bank was the only bank I found that had web-based & app-based banking which allows me to convert USD to THB online. I had Citibank TH from 2016 to 2024, and they were the best for converting USD to THB online 24/7, but they were bouight by UOB, and UOB doesn't allow online conversions. I never had a problem with Bangkok Bank so far, but I don't use them for yearly extensions. Incoming fees vary, but Bangkok Bank is the cheapest; min 200 baht to max 500 baht (USD x .0025) See snippet below of Kasikorn USD acct details.

Trump Criticises UK’s Cautious Approach to Iran Conflict

Sydebolle replied to webfact's topic in World News - Discussion

Changes have to come from within and that also applies to Iran. While Trump and his warmongering congregation of clowns "criticises" NATO members "cautious approach" (in clear English - No, Thank You) the American leadership might note, that the rest of the world criticises America. Has been politically raped for the last 100 years and it seems, that they (quite rightly so) say, "enough is enough". Let them deal with the medieval Mullahs and their flocks of bearded Neanderthaler; none of Americas business.

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

GammaGlobulin · 1 hour ago1 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? Best regards, Gamma

Will Trump back down?

GammaGlobulin · 11 hours ago11 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

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
