Has WOKE gone to far - Update

CNN: Reports the following, " White House report accuses Smithsonian leadership of radical ideology "

Let's Get Real:

Has WOKE gone to far, the answer is YES, saw a documentary on Thomas Jefferson on the History Channel, the last half hour was about how he fathered black children with Black female slave when she was 16, he freed his Black children when they reached 21, but his plantation slaves were sold off when he died, YES WRONG to have any slaves but he WROTE the Declaration of Independence from the UK.  Also as President he purchased millions of more land to expand the US, he was a founding father of the US, great men are flawed, even clay feet, but still great.

1776 - 2026 America Celebrate their Independence

BBC News: Reports in its 4.13pm post the following, " Pop stars to perform across US to celebrate 250 years of independence "

Let's Get Real:

Thus US celebrates its 250th birthday.  The US is great, yes it has had its flaws, slavery etc, it took deaths and a civil war to STOP, even then it took in till the 1960s for African Americans to get their full rights, in the 21st Century it elected its 1st black President.  On the plus side we had US leadership during WW1 and 2.  The great President Ronald Reagan ended the Cold War, US is not perfect but still a Shining City on a Hill.

Threat to Poland - Update

 BBC News: Reports the following, " Polish PM warns critical months ahead in face of Russian threat "

Lets Get Real:

The Poles and the Baltic States are worried, they fear that Russia could do a false flag operation, or have a plane or helicopter go down in NATO country, and then the Russians send it troops, what would President Trump do, what would the new UK PM Andy Burnham do, very new to OFFICE, would he press the red button to save Poland, we have let Poland down in 1939 and 1945 when it was taken over by the Soviets, even after the Free Polish Forces had fought for the Allies in World War 2.   Trump is erratic, would he take action, he has shown that he is a puppet of Putin, will defend Poland even after they have increased their defence spending.   It is worry for Poland and the Baltic States, one gets the impression that the UK voter does not get how close to war we are, most of them were not about for the 1930s, and thus do not understand the threat.  Let's hope the intelligence networks are wrong about the Kremlin Plans, if not we are in the Summer of 1914, and have no idea what is coming.



Moscow will Fall - Ukraine - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 11.29am post the following, " 'Moscow will fall': Ukraine's drone chief talks up success of recent strikes "

Lets Get Rea:

This is putting the horse before the cart, KYIV has been hammered of late by the Russians, they are on the backfoot because of their loses in the Ukraine and the successful drone strike in CRIMEA, the Russian appointed Governor has declared a State of Emergency, the Russian people do not know of the Russian losses in the Ukraine, in between those killed, injured and lost, the total is 1.4 million, the losses in Afghanistan was less but helped lead to the downfall of the USSR.  The Putin Government is worried it will face the face of the Imperial Russia and Tsar Nicholas II, the lack of gas has lead to fights and the economy is going South, even the bankers are getting on the TV to say the WAR SHOULD END.  There are people in prison for holding up a white sheet as a form of resistance to Putin.   Thus Putin as stated in the previous post could invade Poland, to see show that NATO is a paper tiger and get the West to stop supporting the Ukraine, we are the 1930s again, appeasement wont work and we have a new PM Andy Burnham who has not been tested,  being MAYOR OF GREATER MANCHESTER does not cut it, Putin could see his chance of action before 2030.

Russia thtreat to Poland - Update

Daily Mail: Reports the following, " The Kremlin is planning an armed incursion on Polish land to test Nato's response, according to Washington.  "

Let's Get Real:

Putin wants public support, what better than attacking Poland, part of Russia in the Imperial Era and a satellite of the USSR, it would show that NATO was weak and count on the fact that Trump is a puppet of Putin or a chicken after Iran.  PUTIN is facing gas shortages in Russia, and the economy is tanking, and the people are suffering due to the War in the Ukraine.  This could be 1905 again and Putin will have to grant reforms as did Tsar Nicholas II.

Labour did not plan for 2024 victory - Update

BBC News: Reports " Sir Keir Starmer's former chief of staff has conceded that Labour failed to properly prepare for power in the run-up to its landslide general election win. "

Let's Get Real:

The REAL problem for the coming Labour Government in 2024, was not its u - turns, but the character of the PM, so say he has no charisma is an understatement, by comparison Sir John Major, the UK PM between 1990 - 97, had charisma to spare, the cartoon and sketch writers had him wearing his panse over his trousers, he was liked even in 1997, the day he left office, he went and watched the cricket, what will Sir Keir do, complain to the left wing media that he was stabbed in the back by Andy Burnham, and say his 2 years were great no matter the view of the public.
