New Mexico judge & wife arrested for harboring Terrorist gang member
I dont expect serious consequences to come out of this , ( jail or a conviction). The Wisconsin jurisdiction is up to their heads in activist leftest judges. But ya gotta wonder how many illegals this judge serviced . Theres a sign on the court room door that( basically )says if you feel threatened to call a phone number and the process can be conducted by zoom. the judge used a room to take the defendant & his lawyer out thats never been used by defendants before. https://apnews.com/article/immigration-judge-arrested-7997186bbca5730e70a25f2347e631f6# The other judge in New Mexico has more serious issues! Those involved should get jail time. https://abcnews.go.com/US/judge-hannah-dugan-arrested-fbi-allegedly-helping-undocumented/story?id=121161497 -

ALL VACCINES WILL KILL YOU - The evidence is overwhelming
Smallpox - valid but moot point: Since ~1980, small pox vaccines have been phased out. MMR - Proven to work, complications of diseases it vaccinates against are not trivial. Influenza - follows antigenic drift and is 40-60% effective at preventing infection and minimises symptoms Covid - You had covid after being vaccinated and by your own admission was not serious - arguably, either the vaccine worked or the strain of covid you had was minor. Polio - the disease is still endemic in some countries, and thus remains an issue, its still necessary to vaccinate against it. Which is fine... I’m sure you’d be just fine living alone on a desert island, or maybe with all the other anti-vaxxer - if that’s really your preference. Of course, that’s a rather extreme and daft analogy, but it highlights an important point: by refusing vaccines, you’re not just making a personal choice. You’re actively contributing to the erosion of herd immunity, the very concept that protects vulnerable people in our communities - those who can’t be vaccinated due to health conditions, age, or other factors. When enough people refuse vaccines, the effectiveness of this collective protection diminishes, and suddenly, everyone is at greater risk, including yourself. Ignoring vaccines isn’t just about your health; it directly impacts the health of the broader community, and could allow dangerous diseases to spread unchecked. It’s a false sense of security to think that avoiding vaccines won’t eventually affect you when you’re part of a larger, interconnected society. The reason the unvaccinated are at less risk now is purely because so many others are vaccinated. But.. this is a 'community' issue, not just you - If you want to argue just about you, as mentioned above, isolate yourself. If you consider yourself anti-vaccine, surely that stance extends to the rabies vaccine as well, right? After all, if you were to be bitten by a dog - whether it’s confirmed to be rabid or not - I’m certain you’d waste no time rushing to the nearest hospital for a shot of that very same vaccine you dismiss for other diseases. It’s funny how quickly the resolve of an anti-vaxxer fades when faced with the very real, immediate threat of a deadly virus like rabies. Suddenly, the logic of vaccine hesitation doesn’t seem to hold up when it’s a matter of life and death. It’s a stark reminder that vaccines are not some abstract concept but a practical and proven tool to save lives. Showing your ignorance on this subject... the black death (Bubonic plague) was spread not by virus but a bacteria. -

ALL VACCINES WILL KILL YOU - The evidence is overwhelming
Independent Samoa had 83 measles child deaths in 2019, due to anti-vax sentiment after a tragic incident in 2018 of incorrectly prepared vaccine. Prior to measles vaccinations in America, there would be 400-500 deaths every year. I had flu in my thirties, 2 weeks flat on my back aching all over. I have been having flu jabs for over 40 years, with not a single recurrence. How would you know there is no polio in the civilized world? Polio can be asymptomatic. There are 6 countries with endemic polio. There are only two countries out of 195 that require proof of polio vaccination from international travelers. -

Economy Thailand Sees Slight Rise in Foreign Condo Transfers Despite Value Drop
Few condos were built exactly 25 years ago just after the 1997 financial crisis, which froze Thailand's construction industry. Skeletons of frozen construction projects dotted Bangkok's skyline for many years. However, some of the strongest condos were built before 1997 during Thailand's great financial boom, which also saw a flood of foreigners. Money, steel, and concrete were cheap as developers focused on strong Western designs like the Sukhumvit Classics, and my own 20 story condo along Chaengwattana near the government complex. My top floor penthouse shook like hell for 3 minutes, getting worse as subsequent waves hit. At one point I had my doubts, but our building suffered no damage. In addition to lots of concrete and steel, many of these older buildings were braced with steel reinforced beams often lacking in newer buildings. We just had an engineering team do a full inspection. The senior engineer was a retired associate professor with a PhD in engineering. He told me that Bangkok buildings were built to survive (not fall down) a 7.3 earthquake. He also said these older building were built much better. Most damage he had seen was in new ones. He also agreed there's no reasonable geological model whereby Bangkok would experience a significantly stronger quake. In Bangkok, "mass evacuations and safety checks" above translates to just two new government non-condo buildings evacuated, The new revenue department building and, wait for it, the immigration dept tower in Muang Thong Thani. Much of the concern in Bangkok may be due to the novelty of a real earthquake. A Japanese fellow in my building shrugged it off. -
