Trump’s nephew insists former president is showing signs of ‘dementia’ like his grandfather
I am not a fan of armchair diagnostics. What uneducated people call dementia is often wrong. It was annoying when the Trump collective did this to Biden and it is annoying when the Trump opponents do it now. Trump has always been self important and given to exaggerated statements. In previous years, he had checks and balances that kept him from going overboard. Once he became President, the checks and balances were wiped away and he was surrounded by enablers and minions who encouraged the poor behavior. No one says no to him now. Ivanka used to, but Donald Jr. pushed her aside. The smart one has been replaced by the dumb one. Trump is obese and so his gait reflects that. The oversized clothes with 1980 styling now make him look like a waddling Humpty Dumpty. What worked when he was 58 won't work now that he is 78. He is wearing his pants up around his belly and that just gives off the seniors home resident vibe. -

The US migrant Crisis video report
Thats a bunch of BS! Trump has no parliamentary participation . biden/harris own the purge to the border that created the historic numbers. Also one of the original co author’s of the bill ,Sen.Lankford , you brought up was duped into believing biden administration would be transparent but they couldn’t agree on vetting the illegals,Or the numbers allowed in according to Lankford . Langford said biden administration ignores enforcement of the immigration laws by allowing illegals to break these laws to go unpunished . -

Trump’s nephew insists former president is showing signs of ‘dementia’ like his grandfather
Over on Slate, there's a funny article about his various minions going on TV and pretending he didn't say "there are good people on both sides (on both sides)" about the flat-out nazi's in Charlottesville. But every man, woman, and child on earth saw him say it, and this whole new video thing blows up this RainMan II-like claim. What's more infuriating than gas-lighting? Well, completely inept gas-lighting for one thing. We are two weeks of mental decline away from him declaring that not only didn't he say it, but his dog ate his homework too. -

Paetongtarn Won't Take Defence Minister Role, Declares Thaksin
It is not unusual in western democracies. It is sometimes temporary or when there are political constraints. In Australia 2021, PM Morrison took on additional portfolios including Finance, Health and Resources. This is done when the needs of the state as a whole require a combined and focused strategy, In Thailand Defence is a critical cabinet position and often implicated in the overthrow of an elected government. By retaining the Defence portfolio it is hoped that the military can be better overseen and perhaps thwarted or delayed when there are efforts to influence government policy. If the Thai military respected the concept of a separation of state and military and that the military was subject to civilian oversight there would be no need for the joint position. Some countries are able to do it: The militaries of Canada and the UK have King Charles (or his representative the Governor General in Canada ) as commander in chief. However, the military answers to the elected government. -

London is not much better in winter. I get your point though, Devon is lovely, in the brief English summer. -

Teen motorcyclist dies after being hit by truck at traffic stop
Nope... but you are idiotic enough to suspect people are on your intellectual level - of course all intervews and communications were carried out in Thai, and what we are reading (in the English Press is a translation) who wouldn't think that ? - the fact that you feel the need to explain that indicates that you're an idiot who doesn't realise he's an idiot and feels he needs to explain the obvious to others because it was a surprise to him... ... This behavior of that of being only idiot in the room who doesn't know he's the only idiot in the room and feels the need to explain things to others in the room because he thinks they think in his level - As Ricky Gervais wrote - being stupid is like being dead, you don't know you are dead, just like you dont know you are stupid, its only painful for everyone else !!!.... that that explanation above was painful but you seemed to think you were dropping a golden droplet of genius on the world !!!... News reports indicate that Surat-Nasar Road, at a large intersection - the intersection of Southern Road, at a distance of 9.87 kilometers, Surat Thani Province. Announced as a safety zone From 15 January 2018, set the speed for trucks Public buses limit the speed to 45 kilometers per hour. Personal car and motorbike, speed limit of 60 kilometers per hour.... https://www.matichon.co.th/region/news_4743823.... The Lorry could not stop in time for the lights, the driver was speeding or driver distracted.... Driver questioned by police - the report on your link doesn't say the lorry driver stated he couldn't stop.... in other reports it does... But does he need to say that anyway... its obvious,... he didn't stop so clearly he 'couldn't'... By idiots like you making dumb claims and trolling posters. I'd say you've been quite successful so far if you are a troll plant to drum up traffic of those who question what a numpty you are. In the reports you have sourced there was no quote from the driver. The reports I have read contradict that - its not unusual for different media sources to focus on different aspects, add their spin, ignore other aspects. You state the driver has never said "he couldn't stop in time".... ... Did the driver stop in Time ? or did he kill a young girl because he couldn't stop in time ? your pathetic argument is a waste of time - the drive didn't stop and killed a girl. Oh it happened... the driver couldn't stop in time - thats how someone ended up dead ya silly halfwit. -

Brazil Travel Report
Flew from the falls to Salvador. Def check in on the early side in Brazil. Little English is spoken, check in systems and long lines are very variable. Flights aren't cheap ($300 one way). Booked into the Wish Hotel De Bahia, a 60's modernist semi-masterpiece with lots of bass-relief murals and old fixtures ($120 a night). I booked it way early and the hotel did sell out. Check in took 40 minutes, a very Brazilian experience. The hotel guests were 80% Brazilian, the rest mainly from N. America. Only one other option there for a full service hotel ($350 a night, old mansion). I was afraid to pull the trigger on one of the very small hotels in the old historic district ($40-ish), due to fear of crime, which is def way overstated on Reddit. 'Wish I did, since The Wish Hotel had a truly terrible restaurant; about 80% of the food comes out of the deep fryer. $3 Havana Club 7 year old-shots tho, and lots of aperitif-type cocktails in a bar setting that Connery-Bond would have felt very comfortable in. Lovely guitar lady doing all the Bossa Nova hits you almost remember. Paying for a drink takes a half hour and involves multiple staff members. The electricity kept flipping on and off, the internet too. Unless you're in the historic center, there's not a lot of places to walk to, given the traffic and very few traffic light crossings. If São Paulo felt (a bit -don't go crazy) like a more urban Mex City, Salvador is a less depressing Havana. Lots of old stores selling wigs, lots of street food of the very deep fried variety. The locals are very mixed between Portuguese and full-on, undiluted African. I have never seen such visually interesting people in my life.- 1

Pita vows to reform Thailand’s broken political system
Pita Limjaroenrat represents everything good about Thailand and what Thailand can become. Intelligent, educated and transparent. He is a positive role model for young people. Unlike so many others who were elected to political office, he had experience in running a business, and more importantly in taking a failing business and turning it profitable again through good management practices. best of all he was an honest politician, in it for love of his country and of genuinely to effect positive change. The ruling cabal banned him for a decade in a selfish attempt to protect themselves, but there will be more like Pita in the future. They are trying to hold back progress. The longer they hold it back, the greater the force for change. Pita is the future and a man of great courage and resolve.- 1
