Non Citizen voting issues: DOJ Sues Alabama
From the nonprofit Brennan Center for Justice that focuses on voting rights issues: Noncitizen Voting Is Already Illegal — and Vanishingly Rare April 17, 2024 The Brennan Center is part of a broad coalition tracking election-related disinformation. A big rumor we’ve identified rattling around the murkier regions of social media is that hordes of noncitizens are voting. That’s false. A lie. An urban myth. But it has also, somehow, become the glue that’s holding together disparate wings of the Republican Party. And it may be the basis for a major new piece of misguided legislation. ... In 2017, my colleagues Myrna Pérez (now a federal appeals court judge) and Douglas Keith conducted an exhaustive study of 42 jurisdictions in the 2016 general election. They found that “election officials in those places, who oversaw the tabulation of 23.5 million votes, referred only an estimated 30 incidents of suspected noncitizen voting for further investigation or prosecution. In other words, even suspected — not proven — noncitizen votes accounted for just 0.0001 percent of the votes cast.” [emphasis added] (more) https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/noncitizen-voting-already-illegal-and-vanishingly-rare -

Non Citizen voting issues: DOJ Sues Alabama
Justice Department Sues Alabama for Violating Federal Law’s Prohibition on Systematic Efforts to Remove Voters Within 90 Days of an Election Friday, September 27, 2024 The Justice Department announced today that it has filed a lawsuit against the State of Alabama and the Alabama Secretary of State to challenge a systematic State program aimed at removing voters from its election rolls too close to the Nov. 5 general election, in violation of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA). ... On Aug. 13, the Secretary of State announced the launch of a “process to remove noncitizens registered to vote in Alabama.” This was 84 days before the Nov. 5 general election. The Justice Department’s review found that both native-born and naturalized U.S. citizens have received letters stating that their voter record has been made inactive and that they have been placed on a path for removal from Alabama’s statewide voter registration list. ... This systematic voter removal program, which the State is conducting within 90 days of the upcoming federal election, violates the Quiet Period Provision. ... The Justice Department seeks injunctive relief that would restore the ability of impacted eligible voters to vote unimpeded on Election Day and would prohibit future Quiet Period violations. The department also seeks remedial mailings to educate eligible voters concerning the restoration of their rights and adequate training of local officials and poll workers to address confusion and distrust among eligible voters accused of being noncitizens. (more) https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-department-sues-alabama-violating-federal-laws-prohibition-systematic-efforts-remove DOJ sues Alabama, state's top election official for allegedly purging voters too close to election The law prohibits the removal of voters within 90 days of a federal election. September 29, 2024 The Department of Justice sued the State of Alabama and its top election official on Friday for allegedly removing voters from its election rolls too close to the November election. Last month, Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen announced that he had begun inactivating the voter registrations of 3,251 people who had been previously issued noncitizen identification numbers. A Justice Department review of the purge also identified multiple native-born and naturalized citizens who were incorrectly identified as potential noncitizens during the voter purge. A coalition of voting rights groups separately sued Allen earlier this month over the move, alleging he illegally targeted and intimidated naturalized citizens. https://abcnews.go.com/US/doj-sues-alabama-election-official-allegedly-purging-voters/story?id=114317068 Bio on Republican Alabama Sec. of State Wes Allen: "Allen defeated Zeigler with the largest percentage margin of victory of any Republican primary race held in Alabama on that date, earning 64% of the votes cast." ... "He has promised that no election machine in Alabama will be connected to the internet under his watch. He has also strongly opposes ballot drop boxes and mass mail voting.[12]" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wes_Allen_(politician) -

White Culture
So to me that is just a picture of a bloke with his shirt off but then again I'm just a bigoted right wing knuckle dragger But you who claim to be a social liberal, presumably proud of your tolerant views and fully supportive of diversity and inclusion of all people seem from your comment to have drawn a very negative opinion of the subject, That wouldn't be due to any unconscious bias or negative stereotyping on your part by any chance would it ? Your smarmy comment does not really reflect your real hatred, perhaps you should also avail yourself of "grammarly" if only to express yourself better and expose your own bigotry to us in a clearer manner -

Investment for income stream for a Thai
Webull have been operating in Thailand since 2024. Only Thais can apply at the moment but foreigners are supposed to be added to registration process in future. As this thread is about Thais investing, maybe another choice. Platform looks easier than IBKR. -

I've heard that some people have more than just one ATM card. Just a rumor though. Seriously though, we don't even know if that guy is in Thailand year-round. For all we know, he might fly back every 1-2 months and carry cash. -

We can't say we weren't warned
@mogandave: Clearly, you have miseducated about corporate taxation. When Eisenhower was president, we had the highest marginal tax rates, and America was most prosperous. Do you disagree? Lowering tax rates makes America poorer. -

1-year extension based on your original Non Imm O Visa WITHOUT having a Thai bank-account
The Swedish guy is already living 3 years in Thailand without a Thai bank-account. He could of course withdraw funds from an ATM using his foreign debit or credit-card. Or send money to himself using Western Union or similar service. But obviously those are not the most economical ways of getting money, so I suggested to him that he opened a Thai bank-account. Having a valid Non Imm O extension that shouldn't be too difficult for him.
