Very soon the race will be on as to who shall replace Biden. Antony Blinken?
Cornelius Hamelberg
They have been told, “We are gonna win in November, and Joe Biden is our candidate”. His popularity has been faked by statistics, so the less-informed would go along supporting somebody who had lost the capacity of thinking straight. And that for the Presidency of the United States – the Hegemon-in-Chief.
The ”thinkers” of the Dems Party have probably prepared a plot – a secret plan – worked out for years already, to have a chance to beat Donald Trump, in preventing a hypothetical case, where electronic cheating of the vote-counting doesn’t fully work for them.
It is well possible that the Dems will pull a last-minute wild card, just before or during the Democratic National Convention (DNC) – 19-22 August 2024, in Chicago – and propose an alternative candidate to Joe Biden, one well versed in international and national affairs, internationally quite popular, especially with Israel’s Chief-Zionist, Netanyahu – for example, current Secretary of State, Antony Blinken.
Secretary Blinken would have a fair chance to come close to beat Donald Trump, possibly close enough so that the missing “percentages” could be easily manufactured in favor of Blinken. He is a Globalist, Jew, and Zionist – and trusted ally of Zionist-Israel, the country that really runs the United States.
It is widely believed that (other than Israel), Blinken is really running the White House, and former President Obama may also be there in a prominent advisory role.
Some people have mentioned Michèle Obama as a last-minute shoe-in at the DNC. Frankly, that appears less likely, as she may be popular mostly with women, but overall stands a lesser chance, because of her lack of on-the-ground experience.

Stepping back a few years, let us look at the real count of the 2020 elections, when Donald Trump was the real winner by a landslide, some people talk about at least two thirds of all the votes. Some may also remember, the “blackout” for several hours, when there was no vote-counting reporting – in the night from Tuesday, November 3 to Wednesday, November 4, 2020.
That is when the fraud happened – in one way or another (with lost mail-in votes and highly sophisticated electronic voting-boot manipulations; but this is yet another story) – and in the morning the results were suddenly turned around. From an ever-increasing lead of Donald Trump in the evening of November 3, to his sudden defeat by Joe Biden, with an Electoral Vote count of 306 to 232; and a 4-point margin in favor of Biden in the popular vote in the morning of November 4. See this https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2021/06/30/behind-bidens-2020-victory/ .
In fact, in “real terms” and by Real Law, as opposed to the Globalists “rules-based order”, Donald Trump is still President and Commander-in-Chief of the United States of America.
However, under no circumstances could the Globalist elite – aka, the US Democrats – let a non-Globalist President run the Empire. By the way, these same rules apply to Europe. A large proportion of so-called socialists and “greens” have sold their soul to the devil, or you may call it, the Globalists, those being directed by the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) Klaus Schwab and the dark forces behind the WEF’s Great Reset, as well as the WEF-allied United Nations (UN) with its Agenda 2030, and its illustrious 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) – which in reality hide the true agenda of destroying humanity as we know it.
No way could these “nameless” elites tolerate a non-Globalist in the White House, or God forbid at the head of the European Union. Leaders who think nationalist, like Donald Trump – MAGA (Make America Great Again) or Hungary’s PM, Victor Orban, MEGA (Make Europe Great Again, meaning each one of the European countries), are a no-go.
So, the fight will be fierce from now to November 6, 2024 – Presidential Elections, lies and manipulations of the dark forces, no holds barred. In Europe, the neoliberal, corrupt Ursula von der Leyen, has just been reappointed for another 5 years – though the European Parliament still must rubberstamp her appointment. That may happen early next week.

A seemingly unrelated matter – but since everything is connected – the relation is there as we see – could change the entire monstruous game-plan.
Depending on Russia’s reaction to the recent NATO coordinated and guided missile attack by a US-made ATACMS multiple cluster bomb on a Sebastopol beach, killing 5, and possibly injuring as many as 150 people – the world’s macro-balance may change, on relative short-notice.
Rusia’s Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov, has warned Washington, as well as the US Ambassador to Moscow, that the responsibility of this “deliberate missile strike against the civilian population of Sebastopol, lies primarily with Washington, which supplies this weapon to Ukraine, as well as with the Kiev Regime, from whose territory this strike was launched. Such actions will not go unanswered” (see picture).
Mr. Putin’s patience has been running thin already for a while. It is possible that this provoking attack has crossed the red line for good.
What Russia’s reaction may be, is at this point anybody’s guess. But nuclear is not excluded. It could be a tactical nuclear attack on several key European / NATO adversary “provocateurs”, London, Paris, Frankfurt, and even Washington and New York – all simultaneously. “Tactical”- to avoid civilian casualies to the extent possible, yet, to knock out vital infrastructure and financial centers, where much of the western funding for the Ukraine war is coming from.
This is, of course sheer speculation. However, if such retribution – or similar – should be Russia’s reaction, the world’s power balance as we know it, may forever change.
Let us hope a nuclear attack will not happen. But if it does, it would certainly be the West’s responsibility.

This is verily as much the season of conspiracy theories, the season of farewell, as it is hurricane season (“Mystery, sorcery, and guile used to be what made me the lonely one but now I'll be the only one to plea”) and it seems that the first to go (unfortunately) will be a man of colour by the name of Rishi Sunak perhaps for the very same reasons once proposed by Wofa Akwassi in his forecast except that this time the man of colour’s departure is forecast to be precipitated by the UK General Elections slated to be held on the 4th of July, USA’s Independence Anniversary
If we’re not careful - with the anti-immigration wind of change or is it an xenophobic, anti-immigration hurricane blowing over Europe, next slated for a sudden departure is Macron. It looks like he’s already in the process of losing some of the territories of the French Empire in West Africa, namely, Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Senegal, perhaps Ivory Coast, Benin and Paul Biya’s Cameroon to follow and that's partly the reason why his sweetheart Marine Le Pen is standing first in line of succession to the throne on which it is written Liberté, égalité, fraternité.
Let us pray that she does not send him to the guillotine.
The cries for change ( once Obama’s watchword) are now blowing in the wind - strongly - as is the whiff of conspiracy we find here in “The Plot Thickens” that the Democrat Party wants to get rid of their patron saint and patriarch Joe Biden - maybe in pretty much the same way that according to Freud - God forbid, the children of Israel got rid of Moses - without the bowels of the earth opening up and swallowing them as was the case when Korach reared his ugly head. But Biden hardly merits being compared to Moses, as we’re told, “Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died; his eyes were undimmed and his vigour unabated.”
To his credit, the holier-than-thou Joe Biden after months of coaching and weeks of preparation for the great debate which he himself demanded with all the conditions he wanted - no live audience, muted microphones etc ( and which Trump accepted) he must still be thanking his lucky stars that he remembered and did not forget to say to Trump, to his face that he (Trump) has “the morals of an alley cat” and that he didn’t stutter or mumble those words. But is it merely a case of a Genocide Joe who at his age just as your average African president does not want to retire / go to pasture (because “power sweet”) and to his credit too, the alley cat did not compare Genocide Joe to Hitler.
How do the elections in the UK, France, USA, affect Africa?
Here’s a more nuanced view of Trump on the International stage vs what a second term of Biden apparently entering the last of the seven ages of man would like:
The prestigious, semi-official Foreign Affairs Magazine features Trump the Realist - The Former President Understands the Limits of American Power
cornelius...@gmail.com
Since some of us are post-colonial /British or ex- British subjects it’s most amazing that the UK Elections are tomorrow, not a thought from us about that and we are busy speculating about Biden and his enemies, Biden and his chief enemy, as this song ends “and most of all I hate Joe Biden”.
That was after the last election…fast forward and it’s the tables turned , are turning:
Last night, I talked to someone in Washington DC and he advised against making fun of Biden's disabilities, Biden falling down all over the place, referred to ADA ( Americans with disabilities act) and said that he personally only criticised some of Biden's policies or his lack of policy.
Why doesn’t the octogenarian simply retire ? I asked him.
Because then Kamala Harris would automatically take over, he replied.
Well, what’s wrong with that ?
His reply to that was astounding : Because, she’s black, like my ass, and that would cause some major problems. If Kamala had been white, it would have been different, he added ruefully
CBS News : POLITICS ( Updated on: July 1, 2024 / 9:38 AM EDT)
The gaffes can and will of course further increase with time - and the stress that’s ahead for poor Biden in the coming days, weeks and months on the campaign trail - unto The Democratic National Convention, August 19-22nd when, if things have - as Americans say, “gotten” a lot worse and his poll numbers are heading for the bottomless pit ( “are all going to hell” as Trump would say, - he will have to be replaced by someone younger such as his predecessor Barack Obama, who does not suffer from lapses into occasional dementia and can deal with the exigencies of any situation as required when you hold the highest executive office in the land and in the world. The funniest example I can think of was Ronald Reagan on the campaign trail in San Diego, thinking that he was in San Francisco when he said” Hello San Francisco!”, perhaps, not as funny as the redeemed but slightly confused Joe Biden perhaps thinking that he was visiting His Holiness Pope Francis at the Vatican, breaking diplomatic protocol by making the sign of the cross at a little war tête-à-tête session in Prime Minister Netanyahu’s office in Jerusalem - so help and protect him dear Jesus - the Muslim equivalent would be Mahmoud Abbas praying “audhu mina shaitan nir rajim” before entering the aforementioned Netanyahu’s office for any kind of “negotiation” about any kind of Peace or “ Land Deal”
If by August 19, things have indeed gotten progressively worse for Biden , the First Lady more than anyone else will probably remain most loyal to him by insisting that “you cannot change horses in midstream” especially in the middle of war or with war clouds gathering on the horizon. In that regard Mr Biden who gets and perhaps has to digest the latest intelligence briefing every morning had better not ignore or “mis-underestimate” this chilling warning :’Scott Ritter's Chilling Warning to Israel: Hezbollah Will Obliterate You!
The warning bolsters Trump’s argument from that debate, that if he Trump were US President today , things would not have escalated to the extent that Hezbollah would be posing an existential threat to Israel - and that argument could be extended down the line: unlike Biden, Trump would not have been financing Iran’s manufacture and purchase of rockets, nor would Hamas have perpetrated the 7th of October - or Putin gone into Ukraine causing Biden to spend another valuable $175 billion taxpayers money on Ukraine - with Ukraine not an inch closer to “winning” their war or regaining their territorial sovereignty

Now he will be sending his heartiest congratulations to Sir Keir Starmer, twenty years his junior (won by a landslide) and wishing him the best of luck.
Dear Wannabe New Leader of the Free World
the old world
the whole world
the dotty old man
on the world stage,
Give us a break. Please.
Wake up and smell the coffee may sound quite trite
it's the fate of the world hanging in the balance, right?
It's about the 2024 US Presidential Elections
As Abraham Lincoln ( famous Republican) once said, “A house divided against itself cannot stand” So, there are serious concerns about why you seem to be more afraid of your fellow American Donald Trump, than you are afraid of Nuclear Russia, Nuclear China, Nuclear North Korea and the wannabe Nuclear Iran. Trump of course thinks - and perhaps rightly so - that you are more afraid of meeting him for a second debate than you are afraid of “going to hell”. To which taunt I can imagine you replying like Shakespeare’s Caesar, “Danger knows full well that Caesar is more dangerous than he. We are two lions littered in one day, and I the elder and more terrible.”
Really? You, “ more dangerous” ? More dangerous to who? To Trump?
You asked for a debate - an early debate (before you got much older and more decrepit.) You may have forgotten, but it was you who fixed the time, you also fixed the venue, you dictated the conditions, muted microphones, no live audience etc, you had all the time in the world to prepare for this world, earth shaking, heavyweight bout, you had the best coaches and doctors possible, you did some shadow boxing with your sparring partners, rehearsed a couple of likely questions and answers, didn't forget the “ alley cat” line, and now, after Trump trumped you, you are sorrowfully complaining/ crying like a cry baby that it’s because you were feeling tired and blaming it all on jet lag. Your doctors had not prescribed Melatonin? We sympathise with you old boy , even Caesar had the falling sickness. Right now, the best thing you can do is to get some much needed rest, and in the meantime, like Tyson Fury who was recently walloped by his Ukrainian brother Oleksandr Usyk, in your own interest (and for revenge) - justice delayed is justice denied - you could ask for a return match - as soon as possible ( after you’ve had sufficient rest) so that you can show the American people and the rest of the world that in a debate - a real debate, sure,
Things ain’t what they used to be
But you can still
Float like a butterfly Sting like a bee
And show the whole world
That alley cat Donald Trump is no match for thee.
I haven’t seen him for a while; I guess that today he’d be saying that God is not mocked , that God don’t like ugly, and that the prayers of the families of the martyred men, women and children of Gaza and the West Bank left behind (the survivors) will not have been prayed in vain. If there’s any sense left in Biden’s stable, just a cursory look at this calendar should give them some clues about what to do, how to proceed with the approaching catastrophe along the Israel-Lebanon border, in which peace is better than a war that nobody is going to win and Israel’s High-Tec industrial hub Tel Aviv is in the very greatest danger of total annihilation from the suicide-bomber mentality, not forgetting, of course , as you know, whether it’s Gaza or Dresden what’s done cannot be undone.
Back then, my friend Ali ( Sunni Muslim from Baghdad ) used to complain to me that if things were as they should be, instead of spending all that hard cash on ammunition, (a) the United Nations could have arranged a boxing match between Baby Bush and Saddam Hussein and (b) , if Baby Bush really loved Israel that much, then he should have given them half of Texas.
Fast forward, I guess you yourself would not be looking forward to a proxy boxing match that could be easily be arranged - a boxing bout/ martial arts contest between you and Putin, you on your wobbly feet against Xi Jinping , a no holds barred fight to the finish with North Korea’s one and only Kim Jong-Un or the Great Donald Trump himself, and may the best man win.
About the boxing match between Saddam and Baby Bush, my friend Ali says that after the first shout of “Allahu Akbar!”, only the bones of Baby Bush would have remained in the ring.
We understand that ideally, just like Santa Claus, before Christmas 2024, during the remaining days of your first term in the Oval Office, in continuing to make America greater than ever before , like a strong man dictator in the movie in which you are currently starring, you yourself playing the role of Genocide Joe, having quelled all resistance in the Democrat Party that you currently lead - all the upstarts and Democrat rebels’ resistance to the idea of you stuttering and losing your balance, your memory, your mind and your grip on reality all at the same time, their resistance to your glorious idea of being their candidate who would have a chance of defeating Donald Trump in November, and your glorious dream of defeating Russia in Ukraine, and bringing peace and not Armageddon to the Middle East, that this dream should not go up in smoke or down into the grave, as your first Lady Jill your greatest supporter is probably also singing “Don’t let me lose this dream” -so, as a last chance , your well-wishers advise that you could humbly beg the other candidates , Robert F. Kennedy Jr, Cornel West, Jill Stein, and Chase Oliver to join forces with you to defeat your common enemy, the one you don’t want to ever debate again, the one you so desperately want to beat. For the Black Vote you could also enlist the help of your senior American Brother, the Hon Minister Louis Farrakhan , to persuade him to change his mind about the 2024 US Presidential Elections because right now, Farrakhan is praising Trump.
Without getting bogged down in the nitty-gritty (information overload) -your problem during that last debate. A word to the wise. Nuff said.
Happy Listening : Al Green

#President's Physician Met With Parkinson's Specialist in White House
#Biden Declares That Only ‘the Lord Almighty' Can Drive Him From Race
#Furious Jill Biden 'Lashing Out' at Dems Who Want To Boot Biden
For more iconoclasm and ribaldry : The Onion on Joe Biden
As far as we really know, the fact is that in the beginning Biden promised that he would be a one term president. Was it the Almighty that told him to run for President the last time ?
And now, that’s a very strong, final statement coming from the sitting Mister President.
Can he be trusted to keep his word?
It's no longer Barack Obama’s “ Yes we can “
You be the judge.
As the race for the White House enters a new phase,
Joseph Robinette Biden Jr says
only “The Lord Almighty “ Himself
can get him to quit the race.
Yes, you heard that right : it’s a challenge to you the disgruntled folks in the Democrat Party (mere mortals) and other God-fearing Americans. You can stop wasting your energy and your time telling Sleepy Joe Biden that which he does not want to hear, because whether you like it or you like it not, only the omnipotent Almighty Lord Himself can prevail upon him to quit the race.
“A question in your nerves is lit
Yet you know there is no answer fit
To satisfy, insure you not to quit
To keep it in your mind and not forget
That it is not he or she or them or it
That you belong to” ( Mr. Dylan : It’s alright Ma ( I’m only bleeding )
Biden has probably also been listening to Sometimes Satan Comes As A Man of Peace
Otherwise, to be honest, I’m beginning to like Joe Biden, not “ Genocide Joe” but President Joe Biden as a man of God or the man of God. USA’ s Mr. President as the premiere or the quintessential Man of God and a light unto the United Nations. He was well prepared for this friendly ABC News Interview aimed at some damage control, setting the record straight and repairing his battered image after that disastrous “bad night” from which he emerged battered, bruised and somewhat badly shaken, disoriented but not yet defeated by Donald J.Trump, his main adversary who has vowed to make America Great Again.
According to Islamic kalam it is Satan the accursed that is the main adversary of the righteous (one of the reasons why according to the demonology of the Islamic Republic of Iran there is The Great Satan and the Little Satan respectively). In this case we are tempted to toss up the question, who is righteous or more righteous, Trump or Genocide Joe? You be the judge and the jury…or are both of them immune from the wrath of the coming judgement that's to be visited upon the “brood of vipers “?
Biden’s latest defence / self-defence by invoking the name of the Lord is reminiscent of Yahya Jammeh’s more immodest boast that he was ready to rule ” for a billion years”, qualified by “ if Allah wills”. In Octogenarian Biden’s case it’s more difficult to assess exactly what he means by “only The Lord Almighty '' can convince him about changing his ambition to win the next US presidential election. As the good Roman Catholic that he is or trying to be, when he says “The Lord Almighty”, does he mean Jesus or is he referring to the first Person of his Holy Trinity? Cornelius Ignoramus (not that Roman centurion) would like to know. Is it going to be a private revelation - that The Lord Almighty appears or appeared to him in a vision and told/tells him you must continue / you must quit, or will it be a public revelation - a voice from the sky, witnessed and heard by all, like at Mt. Sinai? And what if His Holiness Pope Francis (“the Vicar of Christ on Earth”) were to privately or publicly advise or reprimand him - would he then heed the call of the many members of his party who are saying it’s time for him to quit?
Has he been listening to His Holiness Pope Francis, about other matters such as abortion? Same sex marriage? War? Genocide? The Kingdom of Heaven?

Sir,
Verily you have touched on a very poignant point, some things that even the weakest minds pray for :
Longevity,
Grace
Genetics
Luck
And that includes this message from dear Chomsky showing some signs of all four, here 👍
I'd Like to remind you of these sentiments from five years ago from your more youthful days, when you were immortal as you so movingly expressed it in “Counting the Tiger's Teeth: An African Teenager's Story”,
“I was worried, nervous in that moment that the end of history was in sight, that the end of the world was near. I would be gone to join my father in heaven, a place of no return. Soon we would all be dead. Our struggles were for a better life, but the end was death. If the dog was dead, we all would follow, slaughtered like him, to be decapitated, brutalised, violently killed. Only, unlike the dog, we had notice, and we prepared for the fatal and violent end. Let it come. We were eager to invite death.”
Here’s a personal memorandum on the much feared and fearful “Cognitive decline” - especially fearful / dreadful and possibly also tearful for ojogbons, academics, writers, Romantic poets, scientists, philosophers, even theologians and other so called “ men of God” who are nevertheless never anxious to meet their Creator without any further delay, who want to enter the traditional haven called heaven and perchance even enjoy some joyful sexual activities over there in the Almighty's omnipresence without first having to face the inevitable bodily death, decay and solitude in the grave.
Shakespeare the youthful lover summed it all up in
“Shall I Compare Thee to A Summer’s Day “
- of relevance,
“ And every fair from fair sometime declines…” etc
I just read a review of Paul Auster’s Baumgartner in Svenska Dagbladet and thought about you ( Ojogbon Falola) and our dearly departed Kenneth Harrow, unmistakably. The review begins,
“Paul Auster's last novel is at the top of most book lists right now. Widower and professor Seymour Baumgartner looks back on a life filled with writing, love and grief. The literary critic Abram Martina Lowden writes in SvD: "Baumgartner can be read as a protest against ageing, illness and death. The plot's abrupt jumps and time jumps create an experience of forced vitality, which is reflected in the fast-paced prose. The text sort of zigzags to escape its own shadow, only to rush into its embrace.”
I’d just like to remark that America is America. Definitively, laughter is the best medicine, but in reality, apart from some comedic episodes from Mr Macaroni, it's difficult to imagine a Nigerian presidential candidate of whatever hue, religion, age, ethnicity describing another Nigerian Nigerian presidential candidate in the public /social sphere as an “ old broken down pile of crap” without reaping some dire consequences. He would first and foremost be accused of tribalism/ religious bigotry etc. This leads me to the conclusion that sure, what we have in common is English as the official language and our shared humanity, but it would seem that that’s where the buck stops.

We have all been so patient, up to this point, no worries
it will soon be over even before the Fat Lady sings,
Dear Trump (of Scottish ancestry)
would like to relay to Biden ( his adversary)
this line of Burns from his poem “ To a Mouse“, that
“the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry”
Phase 2: Democrats’ emergency meeting about the fate of Biden
Phase 3 will probably be curtains and the cemetery
The burning question is, will Biden quit
Even before he hears from the Lord Almighty
That he has to do it?
If there was any truth in him then not only would he clear all doubts by submitting to the test and then have the results published in the Washington Post, in addition to that he would also voluntarily take a lie-detector test; but of course we are not to suppose that he would do that either, unless The Lord Almighty “convinced” him to do so. Otherwise he and Trump would probably react to such a suggestion in the same way that O.J. Simpson reacted :
Fox News Channel's Shepard Smith asked O.J. Simpson if he would take a lie-detector test. “ I’m not going to be some dancing monkey for you guys”, Simpson said

Intro to JUICE - A Novel by Ishmael Reed
cornelius...@gmail.com
There is the third commandment found in the Hebrew Bible@ Shemot /Exodus 20:7 and Devarim /Deuteronomy 5:11 that a good Catholic is supposed to know :
“You shall not take the name of HASHEM , your God, in vain, for HASHEM will not absolve anyone who takes His name in vain.”
For our general edification, a brief expatiation on this by Rabbi Aaron L Raskin :
Do Not Take G-D’s Name In Vain
( in this case , not with the aim of some short lived political gain?)
Not that we are in a position to judge Joe Biden, because only The Almighty is the True Judge and in this mundane case only Heaven knows how the folks in the Vatican are to independently verify Joe Biden invoking the ultimate - the supreme appeal to authority, not any specious lower form of argument but that which is unassailable and in the vulgate Latin is known as argumentum ab auctoritate - the appeal to authority in this case not the US Supreme Court but by invoking the name of His Majesty, the King of Kings, the Lord Almighty.
What is not clear is Biden’s current position : Does he view himself as the Almighty’s anointed or has he already been given the go ahead by the Almighty and therefore it is only the Almighty that can tell him to quit the race?
In the Holy Bible, at some point the Almighty tells Abraham to listen to Sarah…

transcript of Biden's big boy press conference
Before he is completely finished, he says that wants “to finish the job”
“While acknowledging that at 81, he is no longer a young man and blaming exhaustion for his performance, he failed in a defiant follow-up televised interview to quell concerns it was more than just one bad debate night.
More Democrats are expected to ask Biden to leave the race in coming days. For now, the White House says it plans to "turn the page" on the incident, despite some opinion polls showing Trump's lead widening and swing states leaning Republican.” (The Star)

#July 13 (Happy Birthday Wole Soyinka) : RealClearPolitics
When Elisabeth Rehn was appointed Defence Minister of Finland, Vladimir Zhirinovsky responded that he couldn’t bring himself to respect a country that has a woman as Minister of Defence. Zhirinovsky passed away at age 75 two years ago and leaves you wondering how he would have responded to the possibility of - in the near future having 86-year old Joe Biden as the second term President and commander-in-chief of Battleship USA ….
It’s 115 day’s to the 5th of November, a day that Biden ( if he's still around) will always remember.
BD : Mississippi - some of the lyrics of this song fit Mr. B to a tee
For now, it’s Good Golly Miss Molly!
“Ay, and that tongue of his that bade the Romans
Mark him and write his speeches in their books,
“Alas,” it cried “Give me some drink, Titinius”
As a sick girl. “ (JC Act 1 Sc 2 )
And that’s Biden’s main problem for the next 115 days , that the news hounds will be on his tail, following him round the clock to take note of the numerous gaffes that will be coming out of his mouth. We ain’t seen nothing yet, but let's start with this one.
Who would've thought that in his desperation, Biden would sink so low?
“He raped her !” bellows Butcher Biden the accuser, about a former US Prezzo.
If I had been in that audience I would have asked “Where?” Some other lost same sex or transgender soul could have probably echoed, “ back or front or in between? “
Like in that restaurant where - so the story goes, Sam Davis Jr was having a good time drinking with his good friends Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Joey Bishop, and Peter Lawford, when a couple of good-for-nothing KKK hoodlums burst upon the scene and shouted “We smell a nigger in here!” - at which point Sammy Davis Jr. ready to dance, jumped up, threw his hands up in the air and enquired,” WHERE?”
In a fit of temporary insanity, the wannabe re-elected & slightly demented who mixes up Russia’s President Putin with Zelensky, who introduces Zelensky as President Putin at a NATO Summit, is quite capable of also mixing up his former democrat predecessor Bill Clinton with his archenemy Donaldo J. Trump and announcing to the world that the latter “raped” Monica with his great Cuban cigar. Where? In the Oval Office.
I was in London during the most turbulent months of the Monica Lewinsky scandal and there I discovered that the British Press was more sanctimonious and more judgemental about the alley cat morals of Bill Clinton than the US Evangelical press was, and to me this was a big surprise given that the sanctimonious Church of England reading public already preached to and conditioned by the Archbishop of Canterbury ( assisted by the Bishop of York) already had the Profumo Scandal as a reminder of spiritual wickedness in high places.
This is how blackmail works and the Stormy Daniels story is simply blackmail, surely, with Trump as the victim?
The UK Sunday papers were having a field day; I went over to the Tobacconist at Putney to get my bunch of the Sunday spread and in one of them, could have been the Telegraph or the Times, Bill Clinton was asked,
” So, why don’t you settle her ( Miss Flowers)?”
He answered, ”Because then all the others would come out! “
“ All the others? How many are they ?”
He : “Hundreds!”
Testimony of virility. Some of the holier-than-thou chimed that’s what happens when you have a southern boy in the White House. Around that time, if I remember correctly, some of the African presidents had lost all respect. Is that “ the most powerful president on the planet”? They wondered. But we do this all the time - a mistress here, a mistress there, one in the hand, two in the bush, it’s known as sexual politics. Long live the presidential dick.
Sadly, mot exactly Afrocentric, a wimpy like Butcher Biden can only say that with some hostility
And that’s how TS Eliot’s The Hollow Men ends
“Not with a bang but a whimper.”

Watch "3 Min Ago: Elon Musk LEAKED The Whole Secrets About Trump"
By the grace of God, Donald Trump escaped death by a hair's breadth - which means that God doesn’t want him dead, at least not yet. Our merciful God is keeping him alive for a purpose , and hopefully, he will stay alive, hale and hearty, long after he has retaken the White House and accomplished much of what has to be accomplished. It’s certainly not up to him to single-handedly “finish the job”. According to Pirkei Avot 2:16 ,
“ He [Rabbi Tarfon] used to say: It is not your duty to finish the work, but neither are you at liberty to neglect it; If you have studied much Torah, you shall be given much reward. Faithful is your employer to pay you the reward of your labour; And know that the grant of reward unto the righteous is in the age to come.”
It’s also a matter of “physician heal thyself”. In responding to the dastardly assassination attempt on his rival's life, the hypocritical Biden the putative healer had this to say:
“ Look, there is no place in America for this kind of violence. It’s sick. It’s sick. It’s one of the reasons why we have to unite this country. We cannot allow for this to be happening. We cannot be like this. We cannot condone this.”
Mr. Biden, in order to unite your country, you must stop sowing the seeds of hatred and division. Henceforth, you must cease all your hate speech, as a sacred duty, pronto, you must cease spewing such bile and calumny on your fellow American Donald Trump, your rival who you so uncharitably regard as your archenemy. If you wanna lead, surely, you must lead by setting a good example for the grandchildren and the great grandchildren of America to follow. You must desist from inspiring the kind motivation for an otherwise innocent American youth to load a rifle, climb up a roof a mere 50 metres distance from the stage where Trump was speaking with the aim of killing the Trump you paint as your avowed enemy and “ a danger to democracy “
Asked whether he thought it was an assassination attempt, the hypocritical Biden had this to say : “ I don’t know enough to — I — I have — I have a — I have an opinion, but I don’t have any facts. So, I want to make sure we have all the facts before I make some comment — any more comments. “
If somebody shot him in the head and counted the bullets to ensure that he was dead - he, Biden - would not know whether it was an assassination attempt or not. That’s how dumb he really is.
This is how Bjorn of Kleen reports on the matter in today’s Dagens Nyheter, about the ultimate question which is uppermost in everybody's mind : How does this assassination attempt impact the 5th of November Presidential Elections? : 👍

“Incumbent President Joe Biden was at St. Edmund's Catholic Church in Delaware when his challenger was shot on stage in Pennsylvania on Saturday night.
Trump was in his own church. At the last mass meeting before the coronation at the Republican Party convention that begins on Monday, surrounded by his supporters and one or more enemies with firearms.
The public stage is where Trump formulated his political messages and cemented his uniquely strong bond with supporters; it is on the stage that he has re-emerged as the Republican presidential candidate and it is on the public stage that he feels life itself.
Now he was also close to dying on stage. There is an eerie logic to it.
Deadly gun violence is so present in the American public that the people who live under the constant threat of being shot at seem almost prepared for it when it happens. Played with dying.
Judging by the already classic photographs, Trump himself is no exception. With blood running down his cheek, his skull on end, hugged by his bodyguards, he raises his clenched fist in the air in a monumental gesture of victory.
The political consequences of the act seemed as immediate and predetermined as Trump's gestures.
Elon Musk, America's richest man, wrote on his own platform X that he now fully supports Trump's presidential candidacy.
Ben Carson, the housing secretary in the Trump administration, captured in a post on the same platform the experience of acute vulnerability that millions of Trump voters already felt before the act on Saturday night. But which of course was raised to completely new levels the moment Trump took cover on the stage floor, under the lectern:
“They tried to bankrupt him. They tried to slander him. They tried to throw him in jail. Now they have tried to kill him, but God protects him, and they will never succeed.”
