NO Nuclear and stop killing protesters - Trump - Update

Guardian: Reports that President Trump has stated that the only way for Iran to avoid military action, is no more nuclear ambitions and to stop killing protesters.

Lets Get Real:

Here is the WIMP Trump trying to avoid action, when don't challenge Evil it wins.  The Tehran Regime is EVIL, it kills and tortures its own people, it supports terrorist groups that kills people, it wants Nukes as a form of protection.  The Regime is a theocracy does not believe in Liberal democracy, suppress female rights.  The only thing  that frighten Iran's Elite is military power, a weak President has no effect on them, in fact makes them stronger, smell the coffee POTUS.

Is Turkey the way OUT for the WIMP Trump - Update

Guardian: Reports " Iran seeks to avert US military action with talks in Ankara...Turkey hosts urgent mediation as Trump’s threats mount and Tehran weighs painful compromises to avoid conflict "

Lets Get Real:

The more Trump waits convinces this blog that he is a WIMP.  As the last month has show he backs down under pressure, from Greenland, his slander of British Troops in Afghanistan and now ICE killing of two Americans as they protest the Trump attempt to throw out illegal immigrants.   The Trump Oval is getting pressure from Middle East allies, and his MAG base not to attack, thus Turkey could be his way out, he has the blood of Iranian  protesters on his hands, he said he would come to the rescue and he failed them.  The Democrats should take the House in November, Americans do not like weak leaders, look at what happened to President Biden after his rash exit of Afghanistan.   Reagan and JFK were strong leaders, so in many respects were Bush 41 and Bush 43, after the failure of the peace in Iraq, Bush 43 still won in 2004 Presidential Election, LBJ had to withdraw after doing badly in the 1968 New Hampshire primary, and President Biden had to withdraw after the most disastrous  Debate in Presidential history in 2024.  Trump's poll number are in the toilet, he will get impeached by the Democratic House in 2026, and the Republicans might fancy their chances with a President Vance in the OVAL.

Finger on the Trigger - Tehran

Sky News: Reports in its 5.52pm post that Iran has stated it has the finger on the trigger should the US attack.

Lets Get Real:

As this blog has written Trump is a WIMP, he wants to win the headlines, he does not care about the estimated thirty thousand killed, he called them out on streets to protest and they were killed on streets and hospitals.  A long war would take a long time and the US would lose military personnel, Trump does not have time for that, he likes to WIN, whatever the reality!  That is why Trump is a WIMP, this blog does not expect a long war, a short military action and US could declare a WIN.  That is why Trump is a blowhard and a wimp.


Time running out for Iran - Trump - Update

BBC News: Reports that President Trump has stated time is running out for Iran to come to the table.

Lets Get Real:

Trump is back to the issue of nuclear weapons, it seems the US attack of last year did not do the job as stated by the Trump Oval.  If the Tehran had a brain cell it would get rid of any plans for a nuclear weapons, curtail its Ballistic Missiles capability and stop funding terrorists.  The Trump Oval wants to win short wars and win the news cycle.  If Iran follow tha above advice it would comply with Trump orders and the Theocracy could stay as far as Trump is concerned.  As stated Trump wants the appearance of winning, never mind the reality.

Trump the WIMP might talk to Iran - Update

Fox News: Reports that President Trump has stated that Iran has called many times, they want to talk.

Lets Get Real:

What is it with Tyrants that Trump likes, from Russia to North Korea and now Iran.  The Tehran Regime are past masters at playing the West.  Reagan tried to talk to them, it got him the Iran - Contra scandal, previous Presidents have tried to talk to Iran and have gotten the run around by the Tehran Regime.  The Theocracy will never give up their nuclear ambitions, what ever they to the Trump Oval, they see weakness and will use that against Trump.  The aircraft Carrier Abraham Lincoln has just arrived in the Middle East, talks come through strength, use it or lose it, what will Trump do? 

30,000 estimated to have been killed - Update

Guardian: Reports that an estimated 30,000 thousand protesters were killed by the Tehran Regime, and that they were buried in mass graves, some of bodies had been in hospital and had hospital gowns on them.

Lets Get Real:

How inhuman do you have to be to drag people from hospitals and then kill them, the World should condemn Tehran and the theocracy that runs the Country.   The Trump Oval should hang his face in shame, POTUS could have been a hero, now he is seen as weak and at command of his Allies.  IF he wanted to act, he now has the Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier in the Middle East, will he ACT, one has doubts.

Images of bodies stacked together in Tehran Hospital - Update

BBC News: Reports that verified images show bodies stacked together in a Tehran Hospital, and shooters on buildings.

Lets Get Real:

The Theocracy in Iran has blood on its hands, thousands have been killed, the families of dead protesters are forced to pay a fee to get the bodies back.  Trump also has blood on his hands, for telling the people to come out to protest and he was coming to the rescue.  Trump is a WIMP, he will never do what needs to be done, totally remove the bloody Regime in Tehran.  IT has to be asked what is  the point of sending the Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier to the Middle East when it's far to late to save people.

Venezuela had ENOUGH of Trump's orders - Update

The Hill: Reports " Venezuela acting president says she’s had ‘enough’ of orders from Washington "

Lets Get Real:

Thus what will Trump do now that his colony saying NO to his orders, he might want the press to return to the issue of Venezuela, he kidnapped the corrupt President, this blog gave TRUMP praise for that, but now he has internal problems WITH ICE.   Then there is Iran, will POTUS want to take action since the US fleet Abraham Lincoln is in place.  On both issues this blog says NO, it might taken ground troops to be successful in Venezuela and Iran, Trump wants quick victories, no tough WARS, thus Trump with his lack of action towards the defending the Iranian protesters, one can see that Trump is WAR averse, he does not like political hits, and he likes quick wins, his base does not want long term wars.  Reagan lost over 240+ Marines in Lebanon in 1983 and then invaded Grenada following day, Reagan had a backbone, unlike the WIMP Trump,


Iran getting ready for the US to attack - Update

Guardian: Reports that Iran is getting ready to be attacked by the US.

Lets Get Real:

Tehran is getting nervous, the article reports that the Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier is in the region and could attack soon, it has the power to either severe damage the regime or bring it down.  The bright spot for this evil regime is the fact that President Trump is a WIMP, he did not come and support the protesters, as they were machine gunned to death or arrested and tortured as to send a message.  Thus theocracy in Iran can sleep without worry, Trump has his own problems with ICE, thus will to be to nervous to take action that is not a complete success. 


700, 000 on UC - A Graduate life

BBC News: Reports that 700, 000 Graduates are on Universal credit.

Lets Get Real:

This all the fault of former PM, Sir Tony Blair, while in power he increased the number of students going to University.  The problem is, the more Graduates you have, less chance of a job, or you end in a super market making sure the shelfs are full with latest product, before that there are the hundreds of jobs you have applied for and your lucky to get a reply, so you do another degree on the Open University for free ( they do not do that anymore, wonder why)  Then as you get older, life throws you extra challenges, an aged parent, you have problems, by the end even the Job Centre has sympathetic to your needs, and you end up on UC, that was something you tried to avoid and it was offered years ago, but you turned it down, because you knew it was the end, you had to wait to retire. Here endeth the lesson.

US Natoonal Defence Strategy - Update

BBC News: Reports on the new US National Defence Strategy as published by the War Department.   In essence NATO and Asian Allies are up the Creek with No paddle.   It states South Korea can deal with North Korea, Taiwan does not get a mentioned, even after US sold billions in defence equipment to the Island.   This document is an isolation US view of the World.

Lets Get Real:

Thus NATO Allies will have protect the Ukraine, Taiwan on the whole is by itself, even if the US law must protect the small Democrstic Island.  The paper will be a bigger shock to South Korea, this blog predicts predicts it will develop a nuclear bomb, it has too, North Korea is a nuclear armed State.   Trump is a menace to World security, let's hope the Democrats win big in November and push back on Trump.



UAE Talks End - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 12.48pm post that the talks between Ukraine, Russia and the US have finished in UAE.

Lets Get Real:

Thus we await the details of the talks, did any one flinch, did any of the sides give concessions, the Ukraine on the Donbas, the same with Russia, and what did the US say at the talks.  Sky News reports the UAE has stated the talks were constructive and the sides talked to each other.  President Zelensky has stated there will be further talks.  This has been done not to upset the Trump Oval.

Meeting in UAE to carry on tomorrow - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 7.08am post that the meeting between the US, Russia and the Ukraine will carry on tomorrow in the UAE.

Lets Get Real:

One does hope the talks are productive, who will blink first, one hopes not the Ukraine under pressure from Trump's America.  The Donbas cannot be given away as a form of appeasement, if you give in to a bully, he will come back for more.  

Its all about the Donbas for Russia - Update

Noted: The Slander by POTUS that NATO did not have their troops on the front line in Afghanistan, the UK lost over four hundred of its Armed Forces Personnel in Afghanistan.   POTUS should apologise, he won't, his ego is out of control.

Guardian: Reports in its 10.13am post that the Kremlin is demanding that Ukrainian forces leave the Donbas before Peace Talks carry on.

Lets Get Real:

The Russian demands have not changed, they want the whole of the Donbas, even parts they do not control.  Trump is seen as an appeaser by the Putin, thus he can wait Trump out, and freeze the poor people of Ukraine, in till they give Russia what it wants, a pawn of Russia.  Will Trump walk away and say he did his best, will he stop allowing NATO to buy American weapons for the Ukraine, and what about intelligence sharing, will that carry on.

US Delegation in talks with Putin in Moscow - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 8.33pm post that US Delegation is in a meeting with President Putin in Moscow.

Lets Get Real:

Thus we shall see or hear President Putin's latest demands and what he agrees to or not with deal. This blog will be shocked if he says YES at all, Russian demands have not changed.  The Russians, Ukrainian and US delegations will meet tomorrow in the United Arab Emirates, is this the last throw of the Dice by Trump, before he walks away?

Trump's Good Meeting with President Zelensky - Update

Sky News:  Reports in its 1.25 post, that President Trump has stated he had a good meeting with President Zelensky of Ukraine.  The meeting lasted an hour.

Lets Get Real:

Thus no announcement of an economic package that was expected to be signed today, before Greenland got the attention of the press.   Thus we will have to wait for the meeting tomorrow between US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Putin of Russia.  Back to important issues of peace and war.

Peace in Ukraine soon - Trump

BBC News: Reports in 10.29am post that President Trump has said that the War he thought would be the most easy to end, Ukraine- Russia war, is the hardest, but peace could come soon.

Lets Get Real:

Today was about Trump' Board of Peace, Europe has stayed away, the UK and France said NO, they don't want to join with Putin on Board, as to the Ukraine, US Envoy Steve Witkoff has stated there was only one issue to discuss, he is on his way to Moscow.  President Zelensky will meet President Trump today.

Update: The US and Ukraine agree security guarantees, but documents need to be signed.

Trump CRITICAL of Canada - DAVOS Update

 Fox News: Reports " Trump challenges Carney at Davos, asserts Canada should be 'grateful' for Golden Dome missile defense...Unclear whether Canada will ultimately take part in the project "

Lets Get Real:

At least President Trump has ruled out taking Greenland by force, the 51st State or Kingdom of Canada would be protected by the Golden Dome, one would assume they might agree, as long as Trump stops his obsession with making Canada part of the US.   Also any payment should be part of the deal not to take over the of Greenland, it is part of the Kingdom of Denmark.  It is up to the people of Greenland and Denmark to decide their future.  Not a President who will be gone in 2029, thank goodness for the 22 Amendment passed by the US Congress that bars Presidents from serving more than two terms.   The future after the Mid Terms, will belong the Nominees of the Republican Party; the favourite is VP Vance; and the Democratic Party.  It is unclear who will be the Democratic Favourite. Trump should be happy with the Golden Dome if it ever built and works.


Zelensky still in Kyiv not Davos - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 3.29pm post that POTUS stated he would meet President Zelensky at Davos, the Guardian reports that Zelensky is in the Ukraine.

Lets Get Real:

President Trump stated that he would meet Zelensky at Davos, this won't happen as stated above, the Iceland mix up and now this! If it was Biden the right wing press would go bonkers, perhaps Trump needs a medical, he is old, just as Biden was in his time.

Greenland - Update

BBC News: Reports in its 2.08pm post that President Trump at DAVOS has stated he will start negotiations to buy Greenland, but won't use force.

Lets Get Real:

POTUS has stated that NATO has given nothing to the US, so he wants Greenland to secure the Golden Iron dome for US security.  Did you notice Trump slipped up and said Iceland instead of Greenland, if this was Biden, it would be the whole story!  Also article 5 of NATO was invoked after 9/11, the only time it has been invoked.  LET'S hope the NATO Secretary General has plan to get Trump off this dangerous plan.

Update: BOTH BBC News and Sky News report that POTUS has dropped his tariff threat,  and done a deal with the NATO Secretary General.  Back to Ukraine tomorrow, Zelensky will meet Trump, Real serious issues.

What about the Ukraine ? - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 8.28am post that one of the casualties of the Greenland row is an Economic package for the Ukraine, that was meant to be signed at DAVOS this week.

Lets Get Real:

The row over Greenland has meant no economic package for the Ukraine, YES the war is on going, Ukraine is being Droned every night, its Cold in Winter, Putin must be pleased at the state of disarray in the Western Alliance, it is reported the US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff is off to Moscow for a meeting, what Putin have in mind! Sad day for NATO and the Ukraine.

You 'll find Out - Trump on Greenland Action - Trump

Guardian: Reports in its 8.17pm post that POTUS stated when asked about Greenland, You 'll find out.

Lets Get Real:

Any military action to take Greenland would mean the END OF NATO, also he could be impeached after November Mid Terms by the Democrats, and Republicans could turn on Trump and prefer VP Vance in the OVAL for the 2028 Presidential Election, if Democrats had done that in 1998, we could have had President Gore, history might have been very different! 

Governor Newsom attacks Europe for its Appeasement of President Trump - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 10.48am post that California Governor Gavin Newsom has attacked Europe for not having a backbone to take on Trump.

Lets Get Real:

Newsom is a Democrat and sees himself as a candidate for the Democratic Nominee for President in 2028.  This blog does not rate him, to Liberal for the Fly Over States, in his own mind, he is a candidate, one can expect, AOC, Governor Shapiro, Former VP Harris, and Senator Booker from California, none so far will get the support of this blog, they have to take on the base, none have so far.  Of course it could be somebody NEW, that would make a  change.

UK stupid to give Chagos Island back - Update

BBC News: Reports in its 6.56am post that President Trump has stated that the UK with great stupidity has given the Chagos Islands back.

Lets Get Real:

This is still about Greenland, he wants Greenland because of its Strategic importance, since the ice is melting, granting a North Western acces to Russia and China.  It is really about him wanting to expand the US and to be seen as a powerful President.  POTUS does not care if he trashes long and old alliances.

Democrats and 2028 - It has started very early -Update

Fox News: Reports " Josh Shapiro claims Kamala Harris' team asked if he was a 'double agent for Israel'Excerpts of Shapiro's upcoming book claimed the 2024 presidential candidate's team asked about his ties to Israel "

Lets Get Real:

The sanity of the 2028 race for the Presidency, and for the Democratic Nominee, the front runners so far, Governor Shapiro and former VP and 2024 Nominee VP Harris.  Governor Shapiro has come out fighting and making Harris squirm for 2028, it seems that the Harris team asked in 2024 if the Governor had ever been an agent for Israel, who would ask that kind of question, what was the mind set, and why has Shaprio told this story, 2028 is few years away, but the Governor wants to start making waves, and how and why Harris lost in 2024.   The former VP blamed former President Biden has his debate and late withdrawal from the race,  also she stated in her memoirs that Governor Shapiro wanted to be co-President, not just Vice President.  The VP's memoirs are worth a read, more fun when former candidates are more truthful than you would expect.  Thus Shaprio wants his named as of the front runners for 2028, if WW3 does not happen by then, you cannot tell with Trump.





Trump " No Comment " on taking Greenland by Force - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 3.55pm post the following, " Trump says 'no comment' to question if he would use force to seize Greenland, says Europe should focus on Russia and Ukraine "

Lets Get Real:

This will not go down well in Europe, Sky News does report in its 4.50pm post that Trump has admitted he might have gotten faulty information on why Europe was sending troops to Greenland.  POTUS if he has not gone mad should take this and back peddle back, he does not want to start a TRAD WAR with Europe, he might lose, let's recall there are the Mid Terms in a few months time, Trump cannot afford this kind of mess and there is the Ukraine to deal with first, it has not been in the news for the last few days, but the Russians are still droning Kyiv and other cities in Ukraine. 

Sir Keir Starmer is CRITICAL of Trump over Greenland - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 1,50pm post the following, " Starmer says Trump's Greenland threat 'completely wrong' but plays down retaliatory tariffs "

Lets GET Real:

At least Starmer has come off the fence when it comes POTUS, he has tried to keep Trump sweet, and has got nothing for it, he did not threaten tariffs back, that was wise, we have to defend the Kingdom of Denmark and Greenland from Trump.  If you live LONG enough to see everything, this blog's defence of Europe, Brexit seems a long time ago, all this is because the Donald did not get the Novel Peace Prize, he got a State Visit in the UK what more does does he want,  a honouree Knighthood that Presidents Eisenhower and  Reagan got, for been a firm friend of the UK.  This far the State Visit by the King to the US should be called off, not a wise move considering Greenland.

Is Greenland an ISSUE because the Donald "The Wimp " did not Get the Nobel Prize

BBC News: Reports in its 9.13am post the following, " Trump references lack of Nobel Peace Prize in letter to Norway's PM "

Lets Get Real:

So this is down to the Donald not getting the Nobel Peace Prize, POTUS is the last person who should get this prize, the Nobel Committee makes mistakes, it gave it to President Gorbachev but not to Reagan, on other hand they gave it Henry Kissinger, without Nixon, let's be fair they were a double act.  So the Donald does not think International law is a concerned to him or the role of Allies.   The US Cabinet and the US Congress should think about invoking the 25th Amendment, to replace Trump, he has lost the plot, his wanting Greenland could be a threat to NATO, one is sure VP Vance would not mind replacing a crazy President.  What about the Ukraine, they need a stable POTUS, and World Security is at stake.

Trump places 10% Tariff on UK due to its Greenland policy - Update

Guatdian: Reports in its 4.34pm post that President Trump has placed a 10% tariff on the UK for supporting Denmark over Greenland. The tariff will start in February and go up later to 25%.   Also applies to 7 other Countries.

Lets Get Real:

POTUS has lost his mind, he is attacking Allies and more specific NATO Allies.  ONE does hope that the US Congress will ACT, they must oppose such a daft and dangerous idea, they do have the power to curtail Trump. The KÅ•emlin will be overjoyed, they want to see the destruction of NATO.  




Tony Blair appointed to the Board of Peace for Gaza - Update

Sky News: Reports that Tony Blair has been appointed to the Board of Peace for Gaza by President Trump.

Lets Get Real:

This will not go down well on the Arab Street, they still remember the Iraq War and the failure of the peace.  That is not the fault of Blair, more the Bush 43 Administration, and the removal and sacking of the previous Iraqi Administration and the attempt to start a new and Democratic structure, Trump has not done that with Venezuela.   The question, who will remove the weapons from Hamas, the terrorist group still runs Gaza.

Iran's Supreme Ruler admits thousands killed during protest - Update

BBC News: Reports that Iran's Supreme Leader has admitted thousands were killed during the protests and blamed President Trump.

Lets Get Real:

The Oval WIMPED OUT, Trump called on protesters to take over Institutions and help was on the way!  The Cavalry did not come and thousands faced death by machine gun, and thousands more are in JAIL being tortured as you read this blog.   When US President does not follow through on a red line then he loses credibility with the World.  TRUMP never had much credibility to start with, in his 2nd Term.

Friday, January 16, 2026

Why Trump wimped out of attacking Iran - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 5.48pm post the following from President Trump, " Trump thanks Iranian leadership for cancelling 'over 800 hangings'...Iran cancelled over 800 hangings yesterday, Donald Trump wrote in a new post on his Truth Social platform, in which he thanked the regime "

Lets Get Real:

Trump will take this as a WIN, what he does not understand, the Regime is just waiting for the press attention to move away, the poor prisoners are still on Death Row, they might face torture and sexual abuse before being released on hanged as the likely outcome.   One can see Trump stating that he has WON, while the poor protesters are jailed and those that have been injured in the protesting are to afraid to seek medical help.  If this is Trump's credibility, not that he has much anyway, he has blow it, no one will feel under threat from him NOW, give him the appearance of winning and he will be happy, poor Ukraine, the people of Greenland will be a lot happier, Trump is  a blowhard and a WIMP.

Trump threats on Countries that do not support the US taking over Greenland - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 3.46pm post that US President Trump has threatened to place Tariffs on Countries that do not support his take over Greenland.

Lets Get Real:

This is a daft idea, even by Trump's standards, NATO would fall apart if he annexed Greenland, as he would have to place Tariffs on the whole of Europe.  Trump is a wimp, as shown by Iran policy.  Even Trump would not destroy NATO, if he did,  the US Congress would impeach him, and the Senate could force him out! Does he want to be another Nixon, one has doubts!  The Oval is turning in to blowhard of ideas that are not meet by reality.

Those protesters injured in Iran fear going to the hospital- Update

BBC News: Reports that protesters injured in the latest protest are afraid of going to hospital as the Tehran Regime will arrest them or take the bodies of those killed and demand that the families pay a fee to get them back.

Lets Get Real:

The title of this post could be, why Trump wimped OUT on striking Iran, but it is reported that the aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln is on the way to the Gulf, to late to help the protesters who are to afraid to leave their homes, being machine gunned to death can put ONE off protesting! It is reported that Israel asked Trump to hold off, for security reasons, that does not cut it, WARS happen when you least expect, just ask the Ukraine in 2022 and now.  WHEN a President of the United States has a red line, and it is broken the Oval must act or it loses credibility! Just ask Barack Obama about Syria.  One just has to look how LBJ's credibility went down when his speeches and words on Vietnam did not match the reality of the War.

Clintons face Contempt of Congress charge over the sex trafficker Epstein- Update

CNN: Reports Bill and Hillary face Contempt of Congress Charge.

Lets Get Real:

The Clintons are holy to the Democrats, will House Democrats really vote to find Bill and Hillary in Contempt of Congress.   This blog is not holding its breath.   CNN has been called the Clinton News Network in the past, it will be interesting to see if they run with story, also the Liberal New York Times.   With Trump wimping out on Iran, one can expect politics to return to normal, what happened to those Epstein files that Department of Justice had  by law to release.  Trump won't invade Greenland, he is not that crazy surly!!

 

Trump wimps out attack on Iran - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 8.05pm post  that President Trump has been told that Iran won't be executing protesters.

Lets Get Real:

Has Trump been talking to Putin, it seems that the protesters who thought Trump would come to their rescue, thousands died, will have died for nothing! its seems either Putin or VP Vance, have influenced Trump.   This is another Barack Obama moment, Trump has wimped OUT, the Regime wants on its last legs, Trump stated that the protesters fired back, they had no arms to shoot back, and Trump's call for the protesters to seize institutions now feels like a call for them DIE.   Shame on POTUS and the West doing NOTHING.



US Military Action on Iran in 24 Hours - Update

Daily Mail: Reports " Trump's 'military intervention' in Iran 'appears likely' and 'possibly within next 24 hours', officials warn, as US evacuates Middle East military base "

Lets Get Real:

The US Forces are getting ready for an attack, let see if POTUS goes through with it, he  does not want to be another Barack Obama and Syria.  Thus what kind of operation can we expect, well an attack on Iran's nuclear forces and its ballistic Missiles, also an attack on the security forces in Tehran and around Iran.  The Oval Office has promised to come to the rescue of the protesters, they face being executed by the Tehran Regime, all they want is freedom, the theocracy knows that if they give on that they will be hung from the nearest Yard Arm, thus they have machined gun poor but brave protesters.  The US must come like the Cavalry and save the day or weaken the Regime, will the US and Israel do enough, one does hope so, lives might depended on it, those protesters who have been jailed by the Tehran Regime. 

US to remove military personnel from Qatar- Update

BBC News: Reports that the US is to move military personnel from Qatar due to the tensions with Iran.

Lets Get Real:

This should show Iran that President Trump is serious about taking military action due to the killing of the protesters and arrest of thousands.  Iran is a rogue nation, an EVIL Regime that no longer has legitimate right to Govern.   The economy is in a mess, the local currency is down the toilet, the people can't feed themselves and the Regime is an unelected theocracy.   Time for more protest in Iran.

Quick Trials in Iran - Update

Guardian Reports in its 7.35am post that there will be public Trials in Iran.

Young Iranian Protester to be executed soon

BBC News: Reports in its 5.15pm post that a young Iranian is to be executed for protesting against the Regime.

Lets Get Real:

The Tehran Regime has the blood of thousands on its hand, in Iran and around the World.   The West should have action years ago against this EVIL Regime.  Let's see what Trump does, if anything, cancelling meetings do not count.   The US Air Force should be all over Iran, taking out the Regime's security structures, helping the people to free themselves.

Pro Government marches in Iran - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 4.59pm post that the Tehran Regime is having pro Government marches to counter the unrest in the Country.

Lets Get Real:

The Regime knows the images out of Iran has not worked for Regime, thus they are trying to get out better PR to their own supporters and for the outside World.  They want to influence the Trump Oval to show that the protestets have failed, thus no need for the US and Israel to attack them.   Trump could act, it might be to late, poor people of Iran.

Trump considering military options on Iran - Update

CNN: Reports that President Trump is considering military options on Iran.

Lets Get Real:

It is about time that POTUS took action, he has promised tough action, there are reports of over 500 dead and ten thousand under arrest by the terrorist Regime in Tehran, they need to be taken down, since the 1979 revolution, the Regime has spawned Terror and violence, a significant part of the population was born after 1979, they have never had real freedom.   Time for change in Iran and action by POTUS.

Lets Get Real:

This might be the only chance for generation of youngsters to be free, it will cost, the theocracy will not go down quietly, they know that if they give up they could be lynched, and the money from the oil will be gone.  The Supreme Leader has stated that the protestets are protesting to please Trump and Israel, the Regime will useless hell to stay in power, one can ONLY hope that Trump supports the protesters, you never know with this erratic President.

Russia fires hypersonic Missile at Ukraine - Update

Sky News: Reports that Russia has fired a hypersonic missile at the Ukraine,  in revenge Moscow states for the drone attack on one of Putin's private residences.

Lets Ģet Real:

The suppose attack on one of Putin's homes did not happen, it was a lie by the Kremlin.  The hypersonic missile has a nuclear capacity, this time it was conventional, is Putin sending a subtle message that he could go nuclear.   Europe and the US should take notice, are the Russians winning in the Donbas, also threat to the coalition of the willing, is the Kremlin sending a nuclear threat to NATO.

Mass Protests in Iran - Update

Sky News: Reports on a bloody Saturdy in Iran, protests by the people against the implosion of the economy of Iran and violent actions by Tehran Regime in response.

Lets Get Real:

The reason the Iranian economy is down the toilet is  due the Tehran Regime, it is under heavy sanctions by the US and the actions of Regime, supporting terrorism around the Middle East, Iraq, Lebanon and Syria.   The people of Iran have the chance for freedom from the theocracy, they should not expect support from President Trump, he just wants the oil from Venezuela, the Trump Oval, will only take action if Iran attempts to go nuclear or increase its Ballistic Missiles ability.  There will be casualties, but freedom is the price.

UK Forces sent to Ukraine will get House of Commons Vote - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 12.04pm post that Sir Keir Starmer has stated in the Hoise of Commons that before UK troops are placed in the Ukraine the House of Commons will get a vote.

Lets Get Real:

The above only happens if Putin agrees to the new deal, there are doubts thar Kremlin will go along with the Deal, Russia is gradually gaining in the Donbas, and the Kremlin does not want NATO Troops in the Ukraine.  Thus deal might never happen, but Starmer has kept on the good side of Trump, always a good idea when comes to erratic Trump.

Venezuela tanken seized by the US - Update

BBC News: Reports in its 1.55pm post that the US has seized the Venezuela oil tanker, as it is under sanction by the US.

Lets Get Real:

Thus the Trump Oval has seized the President of Venezuela in a daring military operation at night and has stated that Trump knows run Venezuela.  The old regime has been left in place, Trump has learned the lessons of Iraq.   The Russians won't be happy, the tanker had changed its name and changed its flag to Russian.  There were reports that it was being escorted by a Russian Navy ship and sub! That did not work then for the ship.  Another success for Trump, it will go to his head.  The UK helped the US with this action, as stated by the UK MOD.

Update: The US has seized another tanker linked to Venezuela, the Sophia was taken in the Caribbean.




UK and French Forces to be sent to Ukraine if Peace Deal Agreed - Update

Sky News: Reports that UK and French forces will be sent to Ukraine if there is a peace deal.

Lets Get Real:

This agreement by the coalition of willing, is based on Russia agreeing to DEAL.  This blog is not holding its breath for that outcome, this agreement will annoy Putin, and give him the chance to go covert operation on OUR troops should they go to Ukraine.   If Putin agrees then expect trouble and casualties, Russia would like to hurt NATO, see how much casualties that France and the UK can take.  It could turn in to a disaster, thus we need the US as a backstop, the cost could be Greenland.

All Options on the Table whem it comes to Greenland-'Update

CNN: Reports the White House has stated that ALL options are on the Table when it comes to Greenland, including military.

Lets Get Real:

The Trump Oval would be out of it's mind to invade Greenland, its part of Denmark, a NATO member.  This blog is assuming that Trump is winding up Europe, the UK and others have stated support of Denmark, does Trump want to smash NATO, that would make Putin very happy.  Europe needs the US for security guarantees for Ukraine, perhaps Trump thinks that Europe will trade the Greenland for Ukraine, its a very risky move by the Trump Oval.   Ronald Reagan is turning in his grave, what has the US become under Trump, a colonial power?

US to Support Multinational Force in the Ukraine- Update

Guardian: Reports in its 2.39pm post that the US will support a multinational force in the Ukraine.  This is a draft statement.

Lets Get Real:

The PRICE of the above could be Greeland, let's hope not!  The US is the sole Super power left, as Venezuela has shown.   The Trump Oval has a few Countries on its hit list, Colombia, Cuba, Iran, who is next?  The Trump Oval has learned that in foreign affairs the Oval Office has a free hand, in a 2nd term, the Democrats could take the House in the Mid Terms this year.   Thus Trump should use the time before that to make his moves, the Democrats will want to impeachment him again!



France seeks to firm and secure Security Guarantees for the Ukraine - Update

BBC News: Reports that the French President is holding a meeting of the coalition of the willing to set firm and secure Security Guarantees for the Ukraine.

Lets Get Real:

The coalition of the willing want the US as a backstop to any security guarantees, thus Venezuela causes a problem and Trump going on about Greenland does not help matters.  Any invasion of Greenland would mean the END of NATO and bring pleasure to Putin of Russia, thus Sir Keir Starmer should get on a plane and visit Trump, to see how serious he is about the idea, and to warn him of if it is a REAL THREAT.

Maduro pleads Not Guilty in Court - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 5.16pm post that former President of Maduro has pleaded Not Guilty to the chages he faces:

Lets Get Real:

This case will take years! That is the US legal system, the actual court case might take a year to come to trial, the defence team will have access to government documents and thus will produce a defence, it might suit the Trump Oval to have Maduro in New York, trade him on condition that US gets the oil reserve in Venezuela, that is down the line.  The World is going to learn about the US Federal Court System over the months and years!  An issue for 2026 Mid Terms, the Democrats have to be wary of being on the same page as former President Maduro.



Former VP Harris Critical of the Venezuelan Operation.

Sky News: Reports in its 11.32am post that former VP Harris has been critical of Trump's Venezuela operation.

Lets Get Real:

Former VP Harris is showing why she lost to Trump, CNN and other liberal outlets are going on about International law, that is fine if the operation had gone badly, the Oval Office JUST has to point to the pictures of Maduro in cuffs doing the perp WALK in New York.   International law is fine, but when a operation is a big success, you cheer the Delta Force that captured Maduro and hopes the story fades.  As stated in previous post this is the year of the Mid Terms, one can see the adverts NOW, those that supported Trump and the Democrats who are more interested in the rights of drug deals.  Do the Democrats ever LEARN, or are they jus Doves by nature, and not to be trusted with National Security.







Maduro arrives at NY Court

BBC News: Reports in its 12.49pm post that former President Maudro has arrived ar a NY Federal Court.

Lets Get Real:

The Democrats are furious about about Trump's success in Venezuela.   They are quick to condemn, but that is a mistake, Trump's polls should go up, even his MAGA base should be supportive, nothing works better than success! The Mid Terms are in November, Trump will milk all he can from Venezuela success, politics turn fast, be wary Democrats.

New Venezuelan President scorns Trump - Update

 Daily Mail: Reports " Venezuela's new hardline socialist leader Delcy Rodriguez hurls insults at Trump as Rubio sets out US demands and says 'adversaries' cannot control the country's oil "

Lets Get Real:

The above could be for internal public show, to give the impression that the Regime is still in charge, if not then the Trump Oval will have to take further military action, and remove the Regime from power.   The Oval Office can not afford to lose any credibility over Venezuela, this might be the only time Trump has a chance to make his mark in Southern America.  Also it would cut off oil aid and monies to Iran, Cuba and Russia.  Also Cuba could be on the horizon ( please see previous post ).  Tense hours and days ahead for Venezuela and the Trump Oval.

VENEZUELA Defenc Minister calls for the return of Maduro - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 4.40pm post that the Venezuela Defence Minister has stated that Maduro should be returned as President.

Lets Get Real:

The Trump Oval might say its running Venezuela, but that depends on the Maduro Regime playing ball, otherwise the US might need troops on the ground, tricky after Afghanistan and Iraq, the US might need to put the fear of God in to the Regime, do as we say or there will be another military strike.  INTERESTING to see who blinks first, Trump wants the oil and the return of Democracy to Venezuela or what is the point of the action.

Is Cuba NEXT ? - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 2.49pm post that the US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has stated that Cuba could be next.

Lets Get Real:

No one has more loathing for the Communist Government than this Blog.   If you read enough about JFK, the loathing migrates to you, the political prisoners held, supporting left wing groups in the America's, a cancer on the body politic of Southern and Central America.  The problem is JFK stated that US would never invade Cuba at the conclusion of the Cuban Missile Crisis.    As it was said during the Cold War, is it NOW void, interesting diplomatic question.

US has the leverages over the new Venezuela Government - Secretary Rubio

BBC News: Reports that Secretary of State, Marco Rubio has stated the US has leverage over the new Venezuela Government.

Lets Get Real:

The US Government has learned from IRAQ, they are going to use Maduro Government to get what they want, the oil and Iranian and Cuban advisors OUT, if the Government does not agree, then the US can use force. The US cannot keep the Naval force on standby forever, thus expect action either way, the new Venezuela President has stated she will play ball, we shall see the outcome.

US to RUN Venezuela - Trump

Sky News: Reports in its 4.46pm post that the US will run Venezuela after the capture of ex President Maduro, as stated by President Trump in Florida.

Lets Get Real:

Thus move by Trump will get a critical reaction from those that opposed Maduro in Venezuela.  The US Democrats will be up in arms, suddenly the US has an Empire.  This blog does not see Trump giving up Venezuela, all that oil that Venezuela has,  he will want the US to have payback, does Trump really mean to run Venezuela, we shall see over the next few hours and days.

President of Venezuela charged with pushing drugs in to the US- Rubio

Guardian: Reports in its 12.27pm post that the US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio has stated that President of Venezuela will be charged with pushing drugs in to the US.

Lets Get Real:

The Democrats are still fighting the Iraq War, that is a political mistake, it seems like a clean victory for POTUS, why are the Democrats so flaky when they are out of power, if Democrats had been power during the Cold War, the USSR would be still be around.  Thank God for Reagan and Bush 41.   The Democrats have to be careful they are not seen as flaky, more international law than winning for the US.  The political cycle is coming, 2026 Mid Terms and the big one in 2028, the Presidential Election.

Venezuela hit by US and President CAPTURED- Update

BBC News: Reports in its 9.27am post that President Trump has stated that the US as hit Venezuela and captured its President and his wife.

Lets Get Real:

An impressive action by Trump, he has cut off the head of the snake, a quick win.   The Tehran Regime will be very frightened that the next knock at the door could be Delta Force with an arrest warrant, it will be interesting to see what the Democrats and Liberal News Media, for example the New York Times and CNN.  Thus New Year and a major win for Trump.

Tehran threatening US Bases in Middle East - Update

Sky News: Reports that in response to the threat from US President Donald Trump, the Tehran Regime has threatened US interest in the Region.

Lets Get Real:

This is an empty threat from Iran, if Tehran does something really stupid, Trump will remove the Regime by its roots.   Tehran as startled to believe its own PR.  NO one would mourn the Tehtan Regime, it has been a threat since 1979, it has terrorised the Region and the World.   It is the supplyer of money and arms to terrorists, a constant threat to Israel and the US.  ABOUT time the young people and shop owners took to the Streets, Persia deserves better, so does the World.

Trump warns Tehran about violence against protesters - Update

BBC News: Reports that President Trump has warned Tehran Regime against using violence against protesters, Trump states the US is lock and loaded, and ready for action.

Lets Get Real:

One only wishes that Trump Oval would take action against the terrorist Regime in Tehran, but you never know with Trump! The US fleet is near Venezuela, will Trump take overt action there, he can't have two wars going on, Venezuela and Iran, his MAGA base is for an isolation policy after the failures in Afghanistan and Iraq, no more endless WARS, Trump after the Mid Terms might find the House is under the control of Democrats, thus his domestic agenda might get stalled, thus a lame duck President for his last two years.   The area of Foreign Policy might be the only area that gives him a free hand.
