Report Rangsiman Urges Probe of PM Paetongtarn Over Thaksin Hospital Scandal
Thaksin will just say that he believed that the doctors were honest and also their diagnosis of his health. Not having studied medicine himself, he had to rely on those who had. 😉 -

Rejected Non O marriage visa application at CW because "haven't been married long enough".
Could it have possible ties to the fact that your 400k baht in the bank has to be seasoned for a couple of months before the application when doing extensions? I know this wasn't an extension, but maybe the IO had a bad day and got a bit confused. The fact that she said you have to have been married two or three months put me on to this line of thinking. -

President Trump ... accuses court system of blocking him from doing his job
As in the OP: Trump on Truth Social: Our Court System is not letting me do the job I was Elected to do. Trump and Ms. Bondi have fired or caused career attorneys to quit so there are not enough lawyers to handle cases from the Executive orders Trump has enacted. Washington Post headline MAY 4: - Justice Department lawyers face skeptical judges upset by ‘shoddy work’ - As they defend against more than 200 lawsuits challenging President Donald Trump’s initiatives, some government lawyers are getting scolded from the bench.pub and Dem j And the article gives instances of 'shoddy work' in front of judges appointed by both Repub and Dem Presidents. -

American Exceptionalism: My Bloody Sphincter!
I agree with your comments. As an American military/civil service retiree, 78 years old, I realized a long time ago that I was born at the right time to enjoy a wonderful life. I noticed the change beginning in the VN war - 2 years there and then when I returned to the US, not everyone had changed but many had - i.e. Trump and his heel spurs so he could avoid the draft - rich kid, but played all the major sports in college so guess those heel spurs didn't reall affect him. Then in my civilain status, I lived and worked in many countries around the world and only went back temporarily to the US so the change crept up on me. By the time I retired in earl 2000 period, the change was complete. I noticed that everyone being selected for candidacy of government offices was chosen by the superPacs. Yeah there were two different parties but both sets of candidates were fed monies by the rich and powerful. Now look at the Trump govt - the agency heads are worth over 450 BILLION USD, more than 172 countries' GDP. Once elected, they quickly learn the ways to become rich off a govt salary and it isn't easy for honest folks! They then immediately begin collecitng money from the superPacs to fund their re-election campaign chest. Since they are selected by the rich, they then cater to them to garner additional funds no reall separtion along party lines. I realized that the golden age is over for the US and it is still being destroyed even further by the policies of the rich so that they can control more and more ot the funds of the country. I left, being used to living overseas and liked Thailand the best with the Philippines a close second. I have had a great life and still enjoying it greatly in Paradise! I do hope the best for America in the end and all the rest of the world too.
