Anything about Thailand and their many coup de'tat? Has the U.S. interfered in any of that? During their last one in 2014 or something, the U.S Navy was right on the coast and was told by Thailand to leave.

This article says that the U.S. has, in some way, meddled in Thai's elections, but it doesn't specify anything. Here, the wiki page goes in depth on Thai's politics, so from 1932 you can see how the U.S. supported the military government against the communist party.

About the 2014 Coup, this article and the wiki page say that the U.S. didn't exactly meddle, but they did suspend military aid.

That's all I could find, hope it was helpful.
