Japan has industrialized, conquered half of Asia, resurrected from the ashes of war to become world power.
Suddenly because of a drop in muh GDP it needs to accept foreigners or die.

Notice this "I was getting tricked into carrying drugs" only happens to Australians. This is absolutely not the first time, there was at least another case like this in Bali.

I don't have a political right but as a taxpayer I deserve an answer to just one question: Why is my tax money being used to fund JET or ALT or whatever they call it ? This program produces zero even negative result and the only thing it adds to Japan is the number of foreign sexpats.

Despite this recent elderly American idiot's best efforts, Chinese tourists are still leading the way for title of worst manners.
Johnny Somali is not Chinese. Neither is Logan Paul. Or the break-dancers on the train. For their worst I doubt if any Chinese have tried to burn apartment blocks, like what an American kid did here three weeks ago.

Wasn't there a teen also from America who tried to torch a half dozen apartment buildings in Tokyo a couple weeks ago ?
I don't get it. Why must they cause destruction and suffering wherever they go ?

Maybe we have been too harsh on Chinese tourists. American tourists, they purposely pick up fight with people, break-dance on trains for their Tiktok audience and now straight up defile an ancient structure.

Muhh Fox news.
Well he already had Alaska in the bag. NYT published that his lead in Wisconsin is simply to big for Kamala to catch up. The only reason he declared victory was so he could go to bed.

Here's an excerpt from a CNN analyst:
Harry Enten
I grew up in the Bronx, NY. Trump is getting nearly 30% of the vote in the Bronx right now. You have to go back to Ronald Reagan in 1984, before I was born, to see such a strong performance from a Republican presidential candidate. Trump's inroads with voters of color aren't just in the polls. It's in the results and are very, very real.
