President Biden's Farwell Address to the Nation - For the History Books
President Biden TALKS to Israeli PM about ceasefire in Gaza - Trump47
The White House releases readout of telephone call between President Biden and the Israeli PM, they discussed the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
Lets Get Real:
At last a ceasefire in the Israeli - Gaza War, it all started when Hamas invaded Israel on October 7th and killed 1,200 and took many hostsges and took them back to Gaza. It might have cost Biden the Presidency with his support of Israel, the far left in the Democratic Party never forgave him, but he did the right thing in this case. Lets hope we have peace in the region.
Trump selling out the Ukraine - Trump47
Guardian: Reports that Trump's nominee for Secretary of State, Senator Marco Rubio has stated the the Ukraine and Russians have to make concessions to end the War.
Lets Get Real:
Thus we come to the sell out of the Ukraine by the US, will the UK and the EU also sell out Kyiv, can they carry the cost of the War without the US support and weapons. The Kremlin will be happy, they have seen their ally Assad fall in Syria, they need some good news, is this Czech Republic in 1938/39, are we on the road to WW3, many have seen the similarities between that period and NOW. The drums have started, can the World escape the logical conclusion.

Biden's Job Approval at 36% - Trump47
CNN: Reports on a new CNN poll that finds President Biden"s job approval at 36%.
Lets Get Real:
The Biden Approval numbers are in the toilet, not as bad as Jimmy Carter in 1981 and Bush 43 in 2009. The American people view the Biden Presidency as a failure, the economy in the view of people is bad, groceries cost to much, and the buck does not cover every day costs. The Ukraine - Russian War is stalled. Today we have news of a ceasefire between Hamas and Gaza, months to late. The Biden view of his Presidency is to rosy.

Queen not told that Blunt was a Soviet Spy - Charles III
BBC News: Repots that her late Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II was not told officially that the keeper of the Royal pictures had been a Soviet spy.

The important word is officially, the Queen is keeper of all secrets, one would have hoped through unofficial officially that the Monarch would have been told, that Blunt was not a good egg, to be on her guard when talking to him, even about Royal pictures. ONE does hope today, that the Royal Court is vetted from top to bottom, we don't need another spy scandal.

Afghanistan Withdrawal was right - Biden - Trump47
Guardian Reports in its 3.45pm post that President Biden in a foreign policy speech at the State Department stated he had no regrets about leaving Afghanistan.
Lets Get Real:
As the post states, Biden's job approval went down the toilet after the disaster that was US withdrawal from Afghanistan, it cost the lives of 13 soldiers and showed the US could not be trusted in the long term, thus showed the Russian Bear, in this case Putin, that Biden was weak and could be rolled, also Biden did not stop the invasion of the Ukraine by Russia, and was slow to supply the Ukraine with the forces it needed to counter Russia, thus the stalemate of the War and Trump47 winning in 2024. Afghanistan is the graveyard of Empires and failed one term US Presidents.
