Why is Trump Really Running for Office Again?
The question is why is Trump really running for president again at such an old age? Wouldn't he rather relax with family and play golf for the remaining sunset years of his life without any stress or pressure of the high demands required to be a useful and effective president of the most powerful country in the free world? Then the question is if he is really running for president or if he is simply running from the law and all of his pending federal criminal indictments? And is he thinking that the presidency will shield him from prosecution and provide him the power to take further vengeance upon his adversaries? It seems the answer is somewhere in the middle, but more on the side of ego and self preservation than anything else. And perhaps he doesn't even really know why he's actually running anymore. Like Heath Ledger as the Joker in the Batman film when he said "Do I really look like a guy with a plan? You know what I am? I'm a dog chasing cars. I wouldn't know what to do with one if I caught it! Y'knnow, I just do things." He seems too cognitively jumbled and confused about what he's doing or saying at any given moment and that he simply wants to be the most powerful autocratic leader on the planet to feed his catastrophically, narcissistic ego. So, in one way or another, it's only about him and not about wanting to be the best public servant he can because he's mentally unfit to even be a presidential leader anymore. He certainly doesn't care about the American people or about making America a better country for Americans either because, if that were really true, he would simply pass the baton to someone else younger and smarter from his own party (like Biden was brave enough to do), and that would be someone who is far more suited than he is to be the next commander in chief. Thus, if he really cared about America, and all those hillbilly Americans who turn up at his rallies in support of his confused and unhinged rantings, then he wouldn't even be running at all. -

J.D.Vance declines to criticize Tucker Carlson over his friendly chat with Holocaust Denier
In terms of Churchill, I don't think Cooper was saying that his opposition to Germany was due in part to "pressure from unnamed financiers", what Cooper is actually saying is that Churchill's animosity to Germany was real and was already present, that he was motivated by his failure in WWI to prove that he was a capable warlord after all and that it was the British media complex and financiers that helped put Churchill in a position where he was the person fighting for Britain, and that these financiers shared Churchill's earlier support for Zioninsm. Cooper doesn't name the backers of Churchill, but he most likely means Harry Levy-Lawson, 1st Viscount Burnham, a former proprietor of the Daily Telegraph who came from a Jewish family. As to the financiers Churchill was friends with Nathan Rothschild, 1st Baron Rothschild, and received "extensive loans" from the Rothschilds. In addition Churchill was friends with Sir Henry Strakosch GBE, an Austrian-born British banker and businessman. As a Jewish financier, the financial help he offered to Winston Churchill was exploited by Nazi propaganda during the 1930s and World War II already. "Files declassified in the 2000s showed that Strakosch provided large financial gifts to Churchill in 1938 and 1940, which enabled Churchill to pay off his vast debts and to withdraw his Kent home Chartwell from sale at a time of severe financial pressures." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Strakosch#:~:text=Sir Henry Strakosch GBE (9,Holocaust deniers in later years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Randolph_Churchill#:~:text=Churchill was a friend of,extensive loans" from the Rothschilds. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Levy-Lawson,_1st_Viscount_Burnham Indeed you are right that antisemites and holocaust deniers have used this financial support from jews in their arguments, and indeed Nazi Germany already used this in their propaganda at the time. However, in this instance it is a case of the people you don't agree with having historical facts on their side. The loans to Churchill by Strakosch and Nathaniel Rothschild did happen. Tucker did not seem overly interested in this, but his interest was in why did Churchill persist in fighting Nazi Germany when he did not have the means to do so. This was of course not an adversarial interview because Tucker is a fan of Cooper. Overmans did write the standard work on German casualties in WW2, that's true. But that's not all. In Germany there is a work "Germany and the Second World War (German: Das Deutsche Reich und der Zweite Weltkrieg) a 12,000-page, 13-volume work published by the Deutsche Verlags-Anstalt (DVA), that has taken academics from the military history centre of the German armed forces 30 years to finish. It is considered one of the ultimate standard works on WWII in German academia. Overmans wrote the chapter "Die Kriegsgefangenenpolitik des Deutschen Reiches 1939 bis 1945"("The prisoner of war policies of the German Reich 1939 to 1945"). Germany and the Second World War. Vol. IX. Deutsche Verlagsanstalt, München. pp. 729–875. ISBN 3-421-06528-4. Overmans also wrote several standard works on prisoners of war and was editor of other major works on prisoners of war. His essay above ("The prisoner of war policies of the German Reich 1939 to 1945") Germany and the Second World War. Vol. IX. Deutsche Verlagsanstalt, München. pp. 729–875. ISBN 3-421-06528-4, is where you will find his exploration of the difficulties the Wehrmacht faced in the administration of millions of Soviet prisoners, including lack of food, camps being built in the open air, lack of medical facilities, dysentry and typhus epidemics and so on. He does not absolve the Wehrmacht of mass slaughter, but explains how this mass slaughter happened. I realise you would like a moralist soundbite about this issue, but it is large and complex issue. -

Just nearly sent me back home to Blighty.
This has been going on for several years. Immigration has been denying entry to those who spend long periods of time in the country on tourist visas and visa-exempt entries. Now, here is the answer to your question. There is no specific rule against this behaviour. There are around 11 reasons for denial of entry. So, the Immigration Officer will pass it up the chain and generally suggest Khor 2 to the colonel who puts the denial of entry stamp in your passport. Khor 2 is sufficiently vague. "No appropriate way of supporting oneself in the kingdom" By using this legislation, they "keep it legal" You can appeal if you are denied entry. Here is a link to the legislation if you can read Thai. https://www.immigration.go.th/?page_id=2577 -

Thailand Visa Exemption (60 days) and Visa On Arrival (VOA) (15 days)
That's not true at all. Thailand has a treaty with those countries and they still qualify for 90 days through that bi-lateral agreement. Previously Brazilians and Koreans could decide if they wanted the 30 days visa exempt or the 90 days visa waiver. Now they can decide if they want the 60 or 90. -

The Roaring Silence
Tenet Media got shut down by the US Justice Department and all of the far right posting on Asean Now suddenly disappears. Maybe there really were troll-bots lurking among us. What will we do without the next iteration of SusanLee? -

The question is why foreigners post so much about our election. Do they have a financial incentive? Will the FBI roll up the originators of the propaganda that the foreigners are copying and pasting here? What is their motivation? -

Trump has admitted he lost the 2020 election. You Trumpers who believed Trump's lies in 2020 were fooled by a conman. I hope you've learned your lesson. -

5 year multiple entry DTV visa (Destination Thailand) from 2024-xx-xx
I successfully applied for a DTV via the e-visa system at the London embassy. The two "requests for further documents" were i) not having £11,000 in a current account but rather in a savings account. Savings accounts in the UK usually issue statements annually whilst current accounts issue statements monthly. They really want to see £11,000 on a statement within the last 30 days. ii) my standard work contract does not specify that I can work remotely. To resolve issue i) I explained my position and the fact I rarely keep £11,000 in my current account along with lots of financial evidence. To resolve issue ii) I provided a genuine letter from my manager in the UK. This tallied with my salary shown on my current account statements and all other information and documentation previously provided. As part of the application, you are asked at the initial stage who your employer is. So, I am good for 5 years unless Immigration move the goalposts and don't honour the visa issued by the MFA via the embassies. 😀 -

Or the county clerk is arrested for refusing to do their job. The voters should decide the election, not the bureaucrats. Do you disagree? -

Cnn just exposed harris
The case is in court. Trump told his people to go to the Capitol and fight. Which they did. Telling civilians to attack Congress is not an official act.
