Real estate tycoon Srettha becomes the fourth Thai premier in 16 years to be removed by verdicts by the same court, after it ruled he violated the constitution by appointing a minister who did not meet ethical standards.

Imagine if the US had ethics rules with teeth like this.

This is a politically-motivated ruling… Thailand’s judiciary, including its constitutional court is packed with ultra-conservative royalists who deploy the law to take down their political enemies. Conveniently enough, politicians who are friendly to the royalist/military establishment aren’t subject to such scrutiny.

LoL, at the US who get shafted by a scotus who deems the president a king.
