probably important to remember that deportation is a legal term that can only apply to non-citizens…Trump (I’m not a supporter at all) is batting around the idea of using Bukele’s new mega-prison to incarcerate American prisoners…that’s not deportation in the legal sense, it’s offshoring prisoners and for any number of reasons this will not happen, the least of which is that it’s unconstitutional and would be struck down by SCOTUS…we Americans have a lot to be concerned about but deportation of USA citizens is not one of them

@Suzanne *****

idk what news you’re watching but no American citizens have ever, or will ever, be deported from the USA…if they are solely citizens of the United States then where would they be sent? Lots of people illegally residing in the USA have been returned during this administration and every administration before it…recently some people w legal authorization to reside in the USA have been deported-the ethics of that are dubious to be certain, but they are definitely not American citizens….having said all that, no American citizen has ever been deported in the history of the modern United States

@Suzanne *****

wtf are u talking about? This dude is an American citizen…where would they deport him too?

@David *********

I have too, mostly in Texas…border control exists on the highways at the 20 mile exclusion zone and you definitely need a pp to pass legally…that said, anybody can sneak into mostly any country including Thailand but it is not feasible to stay there long term without being legally recognized…also as it applies to Mexico, I’m sure none of us would be surprised if the need for a pp was enforced at the us/mx border sometime in the near future considering the current political climate

@David *********

because you can’t open a bank account, own or rent property, basically do any official business and it’s illegal to stay permanently so it’s not a viable solution…further, Mexican border towns are disgusting, filthy and dangerous

@David *********

Mexico has a 20 mile passport-free zone for economic tourism…you absolutely need a pp to go further in and you cannot live there legally in perpetuity anywhere without going through the Mexican immigration process which is similar to the Thai immigration process

I do it w Wells Fargo-kbank twice a month and it always takes 48 hours…the reverse is instantaneous…the USA tax code for foreigners abroad is the issue I’m told

well the field is pretty packed now with some of the biggest names and sharpest minds in cannabis which could be a barrier to entry for you without solid contacts…generally those contacts are held closely to the vest so as to not dilute the platform anymore than it already is but I wish u luck

@Brandon ***********

there are hundreds of western biologists and scientists working legally in the Thai cannabis sector…it’s definitely doable and needed in this burgeoning cannabis climate

you never know…current DTV holders may be lucky and get grandfathered in but I’d suspect the permissive nature of this visa will soon be tightened up
