Hunter Biden on Former President Biden - Update

Guardian: Reports the following, " Hunter Biden talks about how his father’s cancer has spread and is causing him pain .....Joe Biden’s prostate cancer is reportedly ‘debilitating’, even as ex-president continues to speak out on public issues "

Let's Get Real:

One feels sorry for the former President, but there are limits, even his former VP has stated in her memoirs that it was reckless for Biden to run in 2024, it is reported that his Politburo White House thought that Biden would need a wheelchair in his 2nd term if elected.  That they would have to shown signs of life after 6 months to the press.  This is up there when President Woodrow Wilson had a stroke at the end of his term and the 2nd Mrs Wilson was the effective President.  There is also JFK's ill health and affairs that the press did not cover.  There is a trend here folks, Democratic liberal Press and the failure of the press to cover Democrats who are President.  If press had covered Biden at the start of Administration with same vilgance it covers Trump he might not have run in 2024 and we could have had President Harris not Trump in the Oval.

The Biden Tapes - Update

CNN: Reports " Newly released Biden audio recordings include references to ‘classified’ material and struggles with memory "

Let's Get Real:

The tapes show why the Special Prosecutor did not bring charges against President Biden, the tapes showed he knew he had classified documents and told his ghostwriter that fact.  There is also fading memory, this shows that the Prosecutor was right.  This does rise an interesting question, who is writing Biden's Presidential memoirs, from reports its a mighty 500 page memoirs.  That is a hundred pages per year of the Biden Presidency, will he tell the complete truth about him losing the plot, how his inner staff protected him and thought he would need a wheelchair in his 2nd term if he got re-elected.  How he had a disastrous debate with Trump, and how the Democrats pushed him out, who had bloody hands in the affair.  The central question should he have run at all for a 2nd term.  VP Harris thought it was a mistake! The Democrats are trying to write Biden out of the picture before 2028.

Ceasefire in Lebanon - Update

Noted: Read Dr Jill Bidem Memoirs from the East Wing, the interesting moments come with the trial of Hunter Biden, how the First Lady attended every day, even flying from France, the emotional toll on the family.  The decision to run for re-election, Biden admitted that the President had gotten older, but in her view was still up to the job.  How during the debate with Trump, Jill Biden thought her husband had a stroke.  That the Democrats turned against the President and forced him out.  One gets the impression that Joe Biden forgave these people, not so his wife.  That she was passive when Doctors discovered the President had cancer and it had moved to his bones, some First Ladies would have demanded the heads of the Doctors.  One gets the impression that Dr Biden enjoyed being First lady and was blind to her husband's decline. Would explain why his staff thought he would need a wheelchair in his 2nd term, if re-elected.

Guardian:  Reports in its 1.55pm post the following, " Israel and Hezbollah agree to ceasefire - Reuters " 

Let's Get Real:

This down to American pressure or Iranian pressure on the Trump Oval.  Trump has done the worst deal possible and is now having to listen Tehran demands.  The Hawks in the US have been critical and commentary has also being critical.  POTUS has shown he is a chicken of the first order.

Trump states Iran is taking to long to make a deal - Update

Noted: Just reading Dr. Jill Biden's memoirs, so far informative and moving, have not gotten 2224 and the decision to run for re - election and the disastrous debate with President Trump and Biden being forced out by his Party.

Sky News: Reports in its 12.19pm post the following, " Trump 'Iran has taken too long to negotiate - now it will have to pay the price' " 

Let's Get Real:

Another threat from a TACO President, he makes big threats and does not carry them out.  The Oval likes limited strikes, but nothing big like ground troops to take Iran's nuclear stockpile or dust as called by Trump.  Tehran knows that Trump is delusional and wants out of the WAR he started.  Unfortunately the Tehran Regime can out last Trump and the MAGA movement, another failed Presidency after Biden.

Dr Jill Biden's Memoirs - CNN Review

Noted: Am getting Dr Biden Memoirs on Friday from local book shop, support your local book shop.

CNN: Reports the following, " Jill Biden’s rosy if not blindfolded ‘View from the East Wing’ "

Let's Get Real:

The review in one word is DAMAGING.  Even CNN won't protect the Bidens.  The reviewer wrote a scathing book about the Biden Campaign in 2024, no punches are held.  JOE BIDEN should have not run 2024 and left the Presidential race to late to HELP VP Harris.  The former President had declined to much to run for a 2nd term.  If had dropped out at an early stage then there could be Democrat in the White House today.

Massive Drone and Missile strike on the Ukraine - Update

BBC News: Reports the following, "  A Russian missile and drone attack killed at least 18 people across Ukraine overnight,  "

Let's Get Real:

Europe has to help the Ukraine more, the US is useless under President Trump, his sole aim is to appease Putin and the Hawks in Iran.  This is the 2nd duff President the US voters have voted for, the 1st being Biden.  Trump has made it clear he has no time for NATO and considers it a paper tiger.   The Europeans should place fighter Jets in the Ukraine to defend the skies and defend NATO skies drop Russian drone strikes.

US not happy with latest Iran Peace proposal- Update

Guardian: Reports the following, " Iran offers new peace proposal to US but Trump ‘not satisfied’....Tehran reportedly passed proposal to mediators in Pakistan on Thursday night, though its contents are not yet clear " 

Let's Get Real:

Trump is from REALITY TV, he wants the appearance of winning, anything else and he is a LOSER, Trump hates losesers, that is why he cannot admit he lost in 2020 Presidential Election to Joe Biden.  A secret deal like JFK in 1962 with the Cuban Missile Crisis, would not stay secret in the modern World, Trump likes to talk to much.  The Tehran Regime has to be seen to lose by Trump and the American voters, thus more talks, Trump cannot afford to lose.

VP Vance to Pakistan for talks with Iran - Update

Fox News: Reports the following in a post, " Vance heading to Pakistan for negotiations about Iran this weekend, White House says "

Let's Get Real:

Thus if the ceasefire survives in till Friday, POTUS is sending his VP to Pakistan for talks with Iran.  The VP is known to have opposed the War with Iran.  The VP wants to run in 2028, the anti war base of MAGA, will want a deal.  The Oval wants any blame for failure to go to Vance, that is the point of VP's to take on unpopular issues, VP Harris had the border, Bush 41 had to deal with Ross Perot when he came to complain to the Reagan White House about the perceived issue that Vietnam was still holding American POW's from the Vietnam War.  President Reagan knew that Bush 41 knew him thus give the negative job of telling Perot that he was wrong to his loyal VP.  The aftershock was that Perot ran against Bush 41 in the 1992 Presidential Election.  The Gipper was wise, any problems send in the VP, thus no political hassle for the Oval.   Thus a major job for Vance and his career ambitions to be POTUS.

Trump CRITICAL of NATO Again - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 10.20am post the following, " Trump: NATO has 'DONE 0NOTHING' to help with 'LUNATpIC' Iran "

Let's Get Real:

As the article notes, POTUS has asked for help, but NATO countries have said a big NO, thus illogical remarks later that the US does not need NATO.  The problem for NATO countries is that they will have to carry the military load for the Ukraine and Western Europe.  Trump cannot leave NATO, it would be against US Law.  Before Trump was re-elected, the US passed a law that prevent Presidents leaving NATO.  The law was passed just in case Trump won.   The Oval can make life uncomfortable for the Ukraine and Europe, there will be payback from Trump after the US - Iran WAR is finished.

US is working hard to reopen the Strait of Hormuz- Israeli PM

BBC News: Reports in its 7.28pm post thec following " US is working hard to open Strait of Hormuz, Netanyahu says "

Let's Get Real:

The US and Israel are working hard to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, the Allies should have made sure it was not closed in the first place, they should have warned that any such action would lead to the fall of the Regime and US ground troops.  The Tehran Regime is still there, and its nuclear stockpile, both must be removed, or the operation is a FAILURE.   POTUS needs to understand that end leads the destruction of Presidential credibility. Trump should recalled what happened to LBJ, Bush 43, Obama, and finally his predecessor Biden and Afghanistan.

Marines and more ships to the Middle East - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 7.12pm post the following, " Pentagon moving additional Marines and warships to Middle East - reports  " 

Let's Get Real:

The Liberal left will hear Marines are coming and think Ground Troops.  They will think this is another Vietnam, Afghanistan or Iraq.  On the issue of ground troops they could be right, if Trump Oval wants Iran's nuclear stockpile, US troops will have to dig it out and get the Uranium, that was covered by US bombing last year.   The placing of ground troops, could also help remove the EVIL REGIME, Iran does not have the men or military kit to take on the US.

Six American Soldiers Killed in Iran War - Update

Daily Mail: Reports " Six American soldiers have been killed by Iran's retaliatory strikes after the US and Israel killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei over the weekend. "

Let's Get Real:

The President has been honest about the coming deaths, War is a bloody event, you cannot control outcomes, at least the Soldiers died in service of their Country.  A Noble Death.  The Democrats want failure, let's hope they lose in November, the American voter does not want to lose whatever they say IN polls.  The failure of the departure from Afghanistan showed that the people are fickle, they might not want to approve of the War, but the want the Troops to win, and depart with Honour, when Biden failed in this his polls never recovered, whatever you think of Trump you want the US to be successful not Iran.

Russia has not achieved its goals in the Ukraine - Updare

It's four years since Russia invaded the Ukraine.

BBC News; Reports in its 10.55am post that Russia has stated it has not achieved its goals in the Ukraine.

Let's Get Real:

The WAR was expected to be short, destroyed Russian tanks had dress uniforms for the the tank soldiers who expected to get to Kyiv within a week! The Ukraine fought back, thus fours years of Trench Warfare, Europe has not seen it since WW1.  The Biden Administration and Europe supported the Ukraine, of 2025 Trump Administration has been a hindrance, demanding that NATO countries pay for the military kit and not signing security guarantees, thus the frozen front line in the front line.  The War goes on.

The Ball is is the American Court - Iran - Update

BBC News: Reports that Iran has stated the Iranian- US talks on Iran's ambitions are in the US Court.

Let's Get Real:

The Tehran Regime know that Trump is a TWACO, Trump will always Chicken Out, he does not have Presidential credibility, he likes quick  OPERATIONS, no loss of American lives, such as in Venezuela, likes good headlines, also there are elections in November, the Congress is up for elections, he is NO Reagan as mentioned in previous post, also to be honest the MAGA base after Afghanistan and Iraq do not like long and costly wars.   The exception is weak Presidents, Carter, Biden, will Trump add his name to weak holders of the Oval Office.  Trump's predecessor,  Joe Biden never recovered from the mess of the US leaving Afghanistan, image's that are iconic now! So what will Trump do about Iran.

Iran's Supreme Leader should be very worried - Trump

CNN: Reports that President Trump has stated that the Supreme Leader of Iran should be very worried.

Lets Get Real:

The Trump Oval makes threats but does not carry them out.  President Trump stated he would come to the rescue of the protesters on the streets of Iran.  The people listened and for shouting for democracy they were killed, that blood is on the hands of the Regime and the Trump Oval, once Presidential credibility is gone it does not come, look at what happened to LBJ during Vietnam, his positive remarks and speeches did not match reality, Obama stated that use of Chemical weapons against the Syrian people by the Assad Regime was a red line, he did not follow through, and no one was afraid of Obama after that event. Then recently there was US leaving Afghanistan under Biden, 13 US military personnel were killed, and the pictures of people trying to get on planes, was a humiliation for the US and Biden, his polls never recovered.   A President needs a backbone like Reagn and JFK.   Trump is a WIMP, the World does not respect cowardice, a US President needs his credibility for himself and successors, that time has passed for Trump.

 

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.

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.

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.

Russia still a THREAT, - US intelligence

Sky News: Reports in its 9.45am post that   US intelligence has a negative view of Putin ambitions, he wants the WHOLE of the Ukraine and even States in NATO.

Lets Get Real:

Putin wants the USSR back, he has stated the dissolution of the USSR was the greatest tragedy of the 20th Century, he seems to have forgotten WW1, WW2, the holocaust.  Let's be clear, Putin wants Imperial Russia back, that would include Finland and the Baltic States.   PUTIN has fooled numerous President of the US going back to Bush 43, the exception was Biden.  The Russian War machine thought Ukraine would be a walk over, it was not, even with Trump in the White House.

When VP Harris was angry with President Biden - 2028 Update

CNN: Reports that former VP Harris has admitted she has a complicated relationship with the former President, there were times when she was angry with him.

Lets Get Real:

This blog could never see Bush 41 being that frank about Reagan or Biden about Obama.  VP Harris blames Biden, her campaign staff for her loss in 2024, she does not seem to get the fact that outside California she might be a BAD CAMPAIGNER, even Obama from news reports had doubts about her in a general election and wanted her to fight for the Nomination rather than be given it by the powers that control the Democratic Party.  HARRIS is running in 2028.
