Nuclear ALERT in Russia - Putin Era

Sky News: Reports " Russia: Villagers living close to 'nuclear' rocket accident site urged to leave homes..People in a village in northwest Russia were told to leave after the accident in nearby Severodvinsk, in which five people died. "

This could be 1986 again, when the USSR had Chernobyl and lead in part to the downfall of the USSR in 1991.  What is Putin's Russia hiding, what level of radiation was released when the test missile exploded, how did the scientists die and will there be further radiation released.  Putin's Russia might find as with Chernobyl, it is better to tell the TRUTH NOW, because the information will come out, and the West already at longer heads with Russia will be further mistrustful of President Putin and his cronies.    The Putin Regime is a criminal operation, it arrests and kills those that are a threat to the Regime.   This is  a developing story. 

What is in a NAME - is calling some Fredo racist? - Culture

BBC News: Reports " An incident involving CNN anchor Chris Cuomo has ignited debate over if - and why - the name "Fredo" is an ethnic slur directed at Italian Americans.  "

Lets Get Real:

Thus folks we are in the SILLY SEASON when it comes to politics, on both sides of the pond, both US and UK pols are off on their ill deserved hols, in the UK the pols go to France, even Brexit supporters, while Democrats go off to liberal States.   As to calling someone Fredo you would have to know about the Godfather, 1,2,3, this blog had a soft spot for Fredo, it's like when you have a successful father and brother and you get the crap DNA, WHATEVER you do, nothing is as good as your more colourful relative, from sports, music to women.   There are worse things to be called, Fredo in the movies only wanted to be loved and get some respect, that did not happen, you will have to watch the Godfather to see what happens to Fredo, it is not good, and Michael Corleone has a nervous breakdown about what happens in Godfather 3.  We are all Fredo's, there is always someone better than us, that is not the point, you have to learn to love yourself, because no else will, that is the lesson of Fredo. 

POTUS goes after poor Immigrants who seek Federal support - Election 2020

BBC News: Reports " Trump targets legal migrants who get food aid "

Lets Get Real:

This blog can be tough as anyone when it comes to immigration, but stopping people getting food or housing is JUST WRONG.  The State is there to protect people that fall due to economic other circumstances below the common net for people, it is these people that require government support, is the Trump Administration saying that families should not get ANY FOOD from the Federal State or that they should be housed in the gutter, what happen to Christian values of helping people who have fallen.   One is shocked that the Republicans have not come out against the move, one is sure a JFK or Reagan would never employ such action.   This new rule is going to the Courts, one hopes that the Courts or Congress negate this rule, it's bad for the image of the US and for the reality of immigrants in the US. 

More CHEATING from the Remainers - Election 2020

Guardian: Reports on the new tactic by REMAINERS to thwart Brexit, " Three MPs have told the Guardian that one method under discussion is for members to amend the motion needed for parliament to break for party conferences in mid-September.  "

Lets Get Real:

The REMAIN MPs will use any underhand method, thus if PM Boris Johnson loses a NO CONFIDENCE VOTE, he should not resign, why should he follow custom when the Remainers use any dirty trick they can and have the support of the very biased Speaker.  The PM should call for a General Election on the 3rd of September, force the Opposition to do a coup and place Jeremy Corbyn in power, let's see how long that lasts, even moderate Leave MPs in Labour could not with good conscience vote for Corbyn to be PM, our defence would be a joke, even North Korea could threaten us, politics has gone silly since Brexit. 

The PM needs to frame the general election as the people vs the elites in Parliament, that would decide Brexit one way or another.  Also will moderate Labour MPs really tell voters that they will vote to place Corbyn in No 10, if they do then they betray the Labour Party and the Country, there are limits to Party loyalty. 

POTUS critical of Biden - Pre Election Skirmish 2020

Daily Mail: Reports " Joe Biden is a 'pretty incompetent guy' says Donald Trump as he renews attack on Democratic 2020 frontrunner saying: 'He's lost his fast ball!'  "

Lets Get Real:

Thus IF the Trump Oval is right, the election of 2020 will be between President Trump and former VP, Joe Biden.  This is August 2019, it is going to be a LONG year and half before the election.  As stated in my recent post, Joe Biden is losing support in New Hampshire, the combined vote of Senators Sanders and Warren would BEAT the moderate Biden ( Reagan called him a smooth demagogue ), thus it can be expected that Biden will use any issue to get elected, thus his recent comments as mentioned in the article, that Biden is attacking the language used by Trump when it comes to race, and is part of the reason for the shootings, the Gipper was right, Biden will use anything, very LOW POLITICS, but then Trump uses low politics.   The 2020 election will be about gutter politics, who can get their base out, thus expect Biden and Trump not to aim high, no shining City on a Hill from Reagan's rhetoric, but low gutter politics, one assumes that is what Americans want. 

Labour Shadow Chancellor BACKTRACKS over SNP Alliance - General Election 2019?

Sky News: Reports " Unity government plan scuppered by Labour's refusal to deal with SNP 'Tories'..Nicola Sturgeon responds by saying she is open to creating a "progressive alliance" to stop a no-deal Brexit on 31 October.  "

Lets Get Real:

One assumes someone in Labour has reminded the Shadow Chancellor that if Scotland goes out of the UK, then there will be NO LABOUR MPs from there and Labour can never form a majority Government.  Or the Leader, Jeremy Corbyn has woken up after TEA and found that his Shadow Chancellor was stating party policy that was counter to the policy of Scottish Labour and of the Labour Party itself.  This is the problem when order has broken down in both political parties, individual MPs start to think they are God's gift and can say what they like and no counter punch.    The UK either way needs a General Election, new MPs are needed that understand the rules, so it is about time that the Conservatives and Labour Parties start to de-select MPs and get order back into the system.  This blog smells an election coming as early as September! 

Monica's STORY - The Impeachment of Bill Clinton - Culture/Election 2020

BBC News: Reports " President Clinton's affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky and the 1999 impeachment proceedings it led to are to be dramatised on US television. "

Lets Get Real:

It will be good to hear the side of the story from Monica Lewinsky, and since is one of the Producers it can be assume it will not be sleazy, no Cigar mentions ( read up on the subject if you must ).  This blog on the whole does not follow crime stories, but since it's the team behind  the murder of Gianni Versace, a taught excellent drama, it is worth a look.  As this blog has stated, it was others who paid the price for Bill Clinton, it can be argued that Al Gore lost the 2000 Election because of the Clinton affair with Lewinsky, in normal course of events, a good economy, the US at peace the voter it was expected to vote for Gore, it did not, well Gore won the popular vote but lost the electoral college vote to Bush 43, when the US Supreme Court decided in essence that Florida had gone for Bush 43.   The course of history was set from 9/11 onwards.  Then in 2016 HRC was the nominee, and she also lost the electoral college vote, with half of the Country wanting to lock her up because of the deleted emails, it was a really shock when Trump won the three States he need to become President.   One of the fears of voters was what would Old Dog do in the White House, that being Bill Clinton.  Thus as stated others paid the costs for Bill.
