DON LEMON . ( Short Article )

Announced within minutes of the Tucker Carlson announcement. It has to be a coincidence or the start of a cursed talking head duo origin story. Strategic timing. Media will focus more on Carlson.  (1)>>Lemon story won’t dominate the news cycle. Unless Lemon takes gun and shoots up CNN in a grand final . BUT WE KNOW that he is going to get a lawsuit against & Probably a race bait lawsuit on. CNN  UNLIKE TUCKER CARLSON . Don Lemon is a totally somewhat similar tale . (1.2)>>It's too coincidental that lemon was axed about the same time Tucker was. You'd think that CNN and FOX are just one media company of sorts . Ever since COVID 19 ,  (2)>>Don Lemon has gone to the Deep End of state sponsored propaganda . Pro -War , Pro- Vaccine etc .   Lemon was CNN's Deep State propaganda machine . But he was cracking like a egg . SO  , In the wake of Lemon’s Feb. 16 Haley comments — derided as “unacceptable” and “sexist” by everyone from CNN chair Chris Licht to Haley herself, and even referenced by Oscar-winner Michelle Yeoh during her best actress acceptance speech — his fate at CNN hung in the balance, with many colleagues privately calling for his ouster. Despite the outcry, he landed back on his feet after riding the bench for two days, posting a Twitter mea culpa in which he insisted that he is “committed to doing better” and ignoring the matter altogether during his Feb. 22 on-air return. Still, the incident has spotlighted Lemon’s troubling treatment of women and unprofessional antics, dating back nearly two decades. I never understand why a NEWS personality can attain an ego like this, and even more so, that the networks TOLERATE it.How many CNN viewers were honestly watching out of loyalty to DON FREAKING LEMON?Here's what I don't get: CNN has tolerated Lemon's behavior for a decade and a half, but what have they gotten in return for that? Are there big Don Lemon fans out there? Is he a huge ratings pull? Does he do important, groundbreaking news work? The answer on all of those questions seems to be no. They were willing to keep him around for all this time despite some really bizarre and unacceptable behavior, and in return for making that compromising decision they got... exactly nothing. (3)>>More troubling was his misogynistic behavior, multiple sources say. Lemon called one of his producers fat to her face. CNN obviously brought Lemon in as part of it's so called "inclusiveness " , he is black and gay , married to a white male . Lemon was the deluxe as CNN primetime could offer to its audiences . However the question race was a wild card for Lemon he was a staunch defender of BLM , the fact that the protestors were burning and looting way back in 2020 .  Reminds me of years back when Don was getting absolutely shit faced in new Orleans during a new years special. His female co-host was like "bruh relax" but Don was slamming shots on live TV lol. Eventually he keeps trying to convince her to get into a hot tub with him. This kept happening to the point that the female co-host looked visibly uncomfortable. I'm surprised he never had any fall out from that event.  Recent he was in a verbal argument with  (4)>>Vivek Ramaswamy , which probably BLEW OVER WITH the Race CARD innuendo. That NO show HIS was wild. Don was like 3 seconds from throwing out a N* any time he talked to someone else black. I remember watching that thinking to myself, "wow, this is an HR department's nightmare televised" lol. This seems like the most reasonable answer to me. Lemon has a long history of talking over his guests when he doesn’t agree with them. What a shit interviewer and overall lousy host he is, regardless of his politics. Shows have guests on to get their opinions on topics, not to have the host bulldoze their opinions with his own. Good riddance to bad baggage.  Especially if it is, as some have alleged, for inappropriate behavior. The timing will surely mitigate any bad publicity.

NOTES AND COMMENTS : 

(1)>>Lemon story won’t dominate the news cycle.  I PERSONALLY did not care for Don Lemon at the point of him being so antagonistic on his show . He over the 7 years of trying to watch him under the skin he was like a time bomb ready to explode . Tensions on the set of “CNN This Morning” have recently boiled over, with Don Lemon allegedly “screaming” at co-host Kaitlan Collins off-camera during an ugly December incident that has left the cast and crew rattled ever since, The Post has learned.According to two sources with knowledge of the situation, 56-year-old Lemon approached 30-year-old Collins following the show’s last year 2023 Dec. 8, broadcast — and unloaded on her in front of staffers as he accused her of “interrupting” him on air.“Don screamed at Kaitlan, who was visibly upset and ran out of the studio,” one source with knowledge of the skirmish said.The Dec. 8 blowup wasn’t the first sign of trouble at “CNN This Morning” since the show’s Nov. 1 launch. A week earlier, Lemon got into an awkward dispute with Collins and Harlow on air, arguing that the US men’s soccer team should get paid more than the women’s team despite the men’s relative lack of success at the World Cup.The dustup made headlines, with the Daily Beast quoting Lemon saying the men were “more interesting to watch” — a comment that Lemon quickly walked back and insisted was a joke.(1.2)>>It's too coincidental that lemon was axed about the same time Tucker was.  IT SMELLS LIKE A CONSPIRACY !  It must be a conspiracy how can both men get fired on the same day If I were a cartoonist, I’d be having a field day. FOX, Tucker, CNN, Sour Lemons. What if each ran for POTUS opposing each other? What if Don and Chris get a reality show —The Odd Couple. I’m so inspired by this story line!! My guess is they didn't want to seem weak by letting Fox & CNN  keep their controversial hosts while they let theirs go. Saw Tucker get dropped and it was their signal get rid of Lemon . Don Lemon has been garbage all 17 of his years at CNN. Besides Matt Lauer, he seems to be one of the most vain anchors in history with his ‘how could viewers not enjoy me?!’ attitude.Don Lemon and Tucker Carlson…..I feel an odd satisfying sense of balance in the universe.(2)>>Don Lemon has gone to the Deep End of state sponsored propaganda .  CNN's Don Lemon has told his viewers that it’s time to shun and leave behind those who refuse to get vaccinated. He WAS PUSHING BIG PHARMA propaganda . “I think we have to stop coddling people when it comes to … the vaccines, saying, ‘Oh you can’t shame them. You can’t call them stupid.’ Yes, they are,” said Lemon on CNN’s Don Lemon Tonight, as reported by PoliticusUSA.“The people who are not getting vaccines who are believing the lies on the internet instead of science, it’s time to start shaming them or leave them behind,” he continued.CNN anchor is encouraging people to shame anyone who doesn't agree with them. Lemon calls them "stupid". He must be unaware that PhDs are the most vaccine hesitant group. Lemon was also CNN's pro war propagandist, the mainstream media doesn't listen to anyone, and they've suppressed free speech to the extent that no one has a voice anymore. they get to decide how people feel and what people want and will say with a straight face to your face that you're alone in feeling what you feel when really you're in the overwhelming majority. the msm are establishment puppets who parrot their propaganda to you.(3)>>More troubling was his misogynistic behavior. For being gay , Don Lemon seems to have some kinda hatred for women . According to Variety, Lemon’s alleged history of misogynistic behavior at CNN dates back to at least 2008, when he was so incensed over then-colleague Kyra Phillips getting assigned to cover Iraq that he reportedly tore up notes at their shared news pod and sent threatening texts to her from a burner phone.The alleged antics reportedly did not stop there, according to Variety. Lemon reportedly often felt miffed at the thought of female colleagues getting opportunities over him, including when then-colleague Soledad O’Brien was chosen to anchor CNN’s “Black in America” series in 2008. During an editorial call announcing the news, Lemon opined that O’Brien wasn’t Black, Variety reported.But the Haley incident is only the tip of the misogynistic and sexist behavior from Lemon at CNN, according to a new report from Variety published Wednesday. The story, which features statements from over a dozen sources who currently or formerly worked at CNN, alleges that Lemon had a history of disrespecting women at the cable news giant, including on-air talent like Soledad O’Brien, Nancy Grace, and Kyra Phillips, all of whom have since left the company.One of the most shocking stories from the report claims that Lemon harassed and sent threatening texts to Phillips when the two co-hosted CNN’s “Live From” weekday show in 2008. According to Variety, sources claimed that tensions between the two grew high after working together for months, and producers and newsroom supervisors had to pull Lemon off the air during commercial breaks multiple times due to provocative behavior.(4)>>Vivek Ramaswamy , which probably BLEW OVER WITH the Race CARD innuendo. I also didn’t appreciate it when he said Vivek Ramaswamy had no right to talk about black issues. I mean, there’s a lot wrong with what Ramaswamy says, but not allowing someone to comment about issues just because they are of a different race sounds somewhat - fascist and it really cheapens the argument. Lemon was a complete dick to Ramaswamy, but of all the dickish things Lemon has done, this was what was "too far"?Odd. His co-host exerted a lot of power though, not with reason or words, but by simply emoting discomfort with Lemon's schtick. You could see the power deflating from Lemon. He got less than zero support from her.Lemon was peddling the typical leftist BS of feelings over facts. "My lived experience" blah blah blah. How you feel as a black person living in 2023 America doesn't magically inform you of historical facts. You weren't there, Lemonhead. You have to read books to be informed of those past events, just like anyone.I'm glad for this exchange though. East Asians, South Asians, and other minorities that actually have a culture of hard work and value the American Dream need to wake the hell up and stop voting Left. "Whatever ethnicity you are..." Wow. The contempt.

TUCKER CARLSON .

I’m happy Tucker left. Who wants to be part of a failing cable channel? I LIKED TUCKER , his show , he made you think , but obviously the Left didn't like him , nor did the Big Pharma , or the Military Industrial complex.TUCKER CARLSON PARTED WAYS WITH FOX . This is FOX news’ third personality to be ousted since the Dominion settlement. Wonder if they’re all related.Dan Bongino and Jeanine Piro. Although apparently she has just been suspended for now with no reason given.   (1)>>I feel I should write this up as a "just asking questions" style thing like Tucker always does:"Why is Tucker leaving Fox? After all, they make each other a lot of money. Could it be that Tucker wants to strike out on his own? Maybe, but he would be leaving a large chunk of his audience behind, maybe even most of it."Could it be that Fox asked him to leave? It seems strange that they would. After all, Tucker is their highest-rated host, again making Fox a lot of money. So, if they did fire him, it would have to be for something serious. (2)>>He's' NOT EATING BABIES ?But it was Carlson’s comments about Fox management, as revealed in the Dominion case, that played a role in his departure from Fox, a person familiar with the company’s thinking told The Post. Fox has a commanding market share of a declining market. Tucker is the top with just 4M nightly viewers.  (3)>>Cable is dying and cable news dying even faster. Even without this huge settlement the Murdochs will be wanting to push downward on salaries which means firing their biggest hosts more often and replacing them with cheaper ones. (4)>>This is Fox News circling the wagons, having dodged a bullet with Dominion. They still have to face Smartmatic in that defamation suit, and Fox News knows that they will lose. Smartmatic has all but stated that they will demand apologies, and the last thing Fox News can afford to do is have all of their hosts reveal on air to their audience the full scope of the lies. If the complicit hosts are gone, that will limit the scope of the apology. (5)>>Hannity, et. al. must be freaking out right now...(6)>>,Before him O'Reilly was the big dog, and they didn't skip a beat when Tucker took over, despite being a completely different personality. They're actors, not reporters. They're only there to read the script written for them in the teleprompter.And it happened on a Monday. Don’t they usually try to bury uncomfortable news on Friday night? That tells me they’re relishing this week long news cycle, he pissed someone off pretty bad.I'm hoping (against all likelihood, but still hoping) that Tucker is just the first.  (7)>>It's hard to blame Tucker alone when Ingraham, Hannity, Bartiromo, Pirro and others were doing the same thing. It would be interesting to see if they start treading more carefully now, and I'm hoping they don't stop here with Tucker.  (8)>>THE DEMOCRATIC LEFT wanted Tucker gone. I guess FOX sacrificed him because he was so anti-war & anti-Vax , he was not so mainstream with the  (9)>>DEEP STATE AGENDA .The fact the last episode already aired is showing a lot of shit with Dominion stuff went on behind the scenes. Typically he would get a send off if it truly was mutual. Either Fox is pissed that he started the domino effect of having to settle future (9)>>lawsuits after Dominion, the data showed his texts actually hurt their viewership, they wanted Tucker to tone it down till the dusts settles, they found something Tucker had hidden when they were getting ready for the Dominion trial that they didn’t like, Tucker is running for PotUS, or something else. Tucker had shows, podcasts, and other stuff with big ratings for Fox.People are saying this is about just Dominion and Carlson getting punished. Hannity, Ingrim, and other hosts were named in the lawsuit. So it’s not like Carlson acted alone Whoever they bring in now will be the new slow cash cow. Doesn't matter who it is. Terrible mistake by Fox. The people that love this country are ticked. Tucker was a person we need 20 of to get the truth out to the American people. They are slowly ruining their channel.  WHAT ELSE WILL LEFT OF FOX NEWS ???

NOTES AND COMMENTS :

(1)>>I feel I should write this up as a "just asking questions" style thing like Tucker always does:"Why is Tucker leaving Fox? .  Tucker was fired without a due process , it was SO QUICK that his last show which aired Friday of April 21st , 2023 . Tucker said that he will be back on Monday . This seems like a pretty shocking development. Even with the Dominion lawsuit, I never got the sense that his job was in danger given how much of a cash cow he is for Fox. I wonder if there’s more details coming here. There could be more to this than meets the eye. Remember there's another lawsuit against Fox from the other voting machine company Smartmatic. And unlike Dominion's, this action not only sues Fox News itself but some individual hosts although I'm not sure if Tucker was one of them. However, it could be that more 'dirty laundry' has emerged about Tucker and they figured he could be too much of a hot potato to hold onto even if he brings them the ratings. NOW Dominion's shareholders in stock named Black Rock had their pockets lined up with Murdochs just came to light .That wasn’t the only lawsuit. They have smartmatic coming up and that company has said any settlement must include a public retraction of their lies. Then there is the executive who was fired who is suing and I believe an investor is suing as well.If the other major lawsuit ends with fox being forced to admit it lied on air, then I bet they are going to be buried in lawsuits. Honestly I’d think we all have grounds to sue fox.   His last show was last Friday, so he definitely got fired and isn't leaving of his own accord - typically when a host announces they're leaving, they give a few weeks of final shows. I'm honestly not really that shocked... $787 million is a huge financial hit and Tucker led the way. (2)>>He's' NOT EATING BABIES ?"Very serious. Like, 'eating babies' serious. Not that I'm saying Tucker is known for eating babies... no one has accused him of that, as far as I know. But he makes Fox a lot of money, enough that those suitably focused on the bottom line might overlook the occasional baby... as long as it wasn't an important baby. Maybe poor babies would be okay, but definitely not ones with rich parents."Of course, nobody is saying Tucker Carlson is a baby-eating cannibal. In fact, we don't even know that he was fired. Not for certain, in any case. But it does make you wonder... how many babies would Tucker Carlson have to eat before Fox News fired him? Neither Fox nor Tucker have said, so we may never know." (3)>>Cable is dying and cable news dying even faster.  I don't watch the news because its 30% pablum 30% propaganda 30% fear mongering 9% actual news and 1% actual journalistic work. It was, to be fair, quite a sendoff, with the unexpected firing of Tucker Carlson from Fox and the somewhat less unexpected (but still surprising) firing of Don Lemon from CNN.That does not, however, mitigate the fact that cable news is dying. Slowly, in a way that is not always immediately obvious, but it’s dying.Not because it’s become irrelevant, but because the medium it lives on, cable TV, is dying.The whole “massive wave of cord cutting” thing is complete bullshit, something you might have heard us mention a time or two, Or twenty.But that doesn’t mean that it’s not happening, slowly but surely, a couple of million less subscribers each year. Maybe even each quarter. Virtual MVPDs like YouTube TV and Hulu Live TV have stanched some of the bleeding but that’s a temporary fix, a few more years to live, not a miracle cure.So eventually, probably sometime in the next five to ten years, cable TV is going to stop being worth it for all parties involved and will, for all intents and purposes, disappear.Because they're desperately chasing ratings with the lowest common denominator of attention. If they were guaranteed time on the air they could relax about live-or-die ratings and focus on real news.(4)>>This is Fox News circling the wagons, having dodged a bullet with Dominion. The fact the last episode already aired is showing a lot of shit with Dominion stuff went on behind the scenes. Typically he would get a send off if it truly was mutual. Either Fox is pissed that he started the domino effect of having to settle future lawsuits after Dominion, the data showed his texts actually hurt their viewership, they wanted Tucker to tone it down till the dusts settles, they found something Tucker had hidden when they were getting ready for the Dominion trial that they didn’t like, Tucker is running for PotUS, or something else. Tucker had shows, podcasts, and other stuff with big ratings for Fox. People are saying this is about just Dominion and Carlson getting punished. Hannity, Ingrim, and other hosts were named in the lawsuit. So it’s not like Carlson acted alone. The host’s departure was announced just days after corporate parent Fox Corp. agreed to pay $787.5 million in a settlement to Dominion Voting Systems after being accused of passing along specious conspiracy theories about its role in the 2020 presidential election. Carlson was expected to have to testify in the matter.   (5)>>Hannity, et. al. “It’s very hard,” Hannity said at the start of his radio show, “The Sean Hannity Show,” regarding Carlson’s Fox News departure (via The Wrap). “My phone has been blowing up all day. The hard part for me is I don’t have a clue… I have no idea. Was it Tucker’s decision? Was it Fox’s? Was it a mutual agreement that they had? I don’t know.”“I guess people think that because I’ve been there the longest that I’d have some knowledge or understanding of what’s going on, but… I just don’t,” Hannity added. “For those who think I should, I say to those people: ‘I don’t own the company.’”Fox announced Carlson’s exit in an April 24 statement that read: “Fox News Media and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways. We thank him for his service to the network as a host and prior to that as a contributor.” A spokeswoman for Fox News declined to elaborate.(6)>>,Before him O'Reilly was the big dog. Bill O’Reilly believes one thing is certain: Carlson’s departure is going to be bad for the network. “There’s nothing good about this,” for Fox, O’Reilly said Monday on NewsNation’s [ see here click 👉 “CUOMO.” ] O’Reilly – who lost his prime time Fox News show in April 2017 after it was reported that the network settled several sexual misconduct lawsuits – said on radio station WABC Monday afternoon that Carlson’s firing had taken place almost exactly six years after his own dismissal. Coincidence????“Tucker Carlson took over from me. For the first three years his ratings were soft. He lost about a million, maybe a little bit more of my audience, and then in 2020 he took a hard right turn,” O’Reilly said. “Carlson basically programmed for a very hard right audience and his numbers came up.”(7)>>It's hard to blame Tucker alone.I don’t actually blame Tucker Carlson. He was doing a job and if you know anything about News networks, they spew whatever the network heads and their producers tell them to. He still can go, but everyone above him also needs to go. The lawsuit still revealed plenty of what Fox personalities had been saying about the  election claims, including Tucker Carlson, he was not the only one . I did not think they would do it, but I get it. #Jan6 tapes exposed the sham, they were idiots to settle the lawsuit, and they have to "blame" someone. But it's more, #TuckerCarlson became too popular, they don't like that at all. He was moving voters to the right.THEY make him the focus and then blame him for stirring the pot. They have been so obsessed with killing the rat, they have failed to notice how many holes they have shot in the boat. Maybe just don’t feed the rat.(8)>>THE DEMOCRATIC LEFT wanted Tucker gone.  Prior to Tucker being fired .Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has accused Fox News and its hosts of inciting violence in the January 6 Capitol riots as she called for media organisations to be held accountable for dangerous content.Democrats are celebrating Monday’s shocking news that Tucker Carlson and Fox News have parted ways, Some Democrats were more terse in their responses: Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) tweeted “good riddance,” and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), who on Sunday accused Carlson and other Fox News figures of “incitement of violence,” wrote “wow.” The New York Democrat called out Carlson in that instance, as well.“A recent AP poll found that nearly one third of American adults believe that a group of people is trying to replace native-born Americans with immigrants for electoral gains. That same poll found that your viewers are nearly three times more likely to believe in Replacement Theory than other networks,” Schumer wrote.(9)>>DEEP STATE AGENDA . HERE IS MY RANT ON THIS . TRIGGER !!!! Alex Jones claims the “deep state” pressured Tucker Carlson over January 6 claims: “I know what was reportedly going to be on there last night and it wasn't there” IN THE PAST FEW WEEKS TUCKER CARLSON EXPOSED BIG PHARMA, THE DEEP STATE, AND THE MEDIA.THESE F'ERS WILL BE FRONT AND CENTER IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS TO BURY TUCKER AND FREE SPEECH.THEY WANT THOSE LIKE TUCKER TO BE AFRAID TO CONTINUE TO EXPOSE THEM.So the deep state got what they wanted. They were being exposed by Tucker and they got him kicked off Fox. I had forgotten about Jesse B Watters...I will give my good friend George S.. a call tonight to see if he can get Jesse tossed by the end of the week. All in all FOX dropping Carlson and Bong Bingo Bango Boingo Bongino is more than the Cabal would  have hoped for..😁(9)>>lawsuits after Dominion. The fact the last episode already aired is showing a lot of shit with Dominion stuff went on behind the scenes. Typically he would get a send off if it truly was mutual. Either Fox is pissed that he started the domino effect of having to settle future lawsuits after Dominion, the data showed his texts actually hurt their viewership, they wanted Tucker to tone it down till the dusts settles, they found something Tucker had hidden when they were getting ready for the Dominion trial that they didn’t like, Tucker is running for PotUS, or something else. Tucker had shows, podcasts, and other stuff with big ratings for Fox.People are saying this is about just Dominion and Carlson getting punished. Hannity, Ingrim, and other hosts were named in the lawsuit. So it’s not like Carlson acted alone. It’s very clear that Fox News have tried every trick in the book to avoid this lawsuit; and with it the consequences of defaming Dominion, and causing reputational harm. NOW Fired Fox Producer Abby Grossberg says she found even more evidence connected to Dominion Lawsuit. She's presenting it at the worst possible time for them: after Fox has already gotten caught withholding information from the courts twice, and right after they said they wouldn't do it anymore. Yes, throwing Tucker out was probably linked to Grossberg . Grossberg, a former producer for Fox hosts Maria Bartiromo and Tucker Carlson, has sued Fox News and said her deposition was coerced. In an amended filing she said she had recorded conversations with Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell and others. The more I hear about this Abby Grossberg, the more I think she's either a disgruntled employee who will do whatever she can to make Fox News look bad (collateral damage be damned), or she's been a Left wing operative the whole time. We know there are plenty of wolves in sheep's clothing working at Fox News HQ in NYC.In any case, she is now doing the Left's bidding. She also gave MSNBC a recording that supposedly makes Ted Cruz look bad. That has nothing to do with her lawsuit against Fox.I'm sure she has plenty of dirt on Fox though, and I wouldn't be surprised if she blackmailed Fox into firing Tucker Carlson. If it looks like a Leftist, if it quacks like a Leftist, it is a Leftist.

TAIWAN CONUNDRUM . 2024 AD ( short article )

Is it just Possible that the U.S. Government 
wants to Start a War with China ?
Let's take a look here , right in the middle 
of the U.S. Presidential election 2024 AD .

I personally BELIEVE that a showdown between the U.S. and China over Taiwan is coming in 2024 . It's not good folks . (1)>>IT WILL PROBABLY HAPPEN DURING THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION YEAR , just to distract the voters . In other words, the Biden Administration and the Democratic Party destroy the US economy and are perpetually weak on crime and foreign policy. Recently the Biden Administration has sent over 200 troops for so called logistical reasons ??? Having a permanent military presence introduces substantial risk and minimal advantage to American interests. Remember that the goal for the US is as much about deterring  (2)>>Taiwan from a unilateral Declaration of Independence as it is deterring Beijing from military coercion.Besides, the US chickened out of even a few Marine embassy guards. Barring any dramatic policy shifts, a permanent base is far out of the realm of possibility. NOBODY THINKS LOGICALLY .(3)>>You trigger a hot war with PRC. One of the first thing agreed upon when switching recognition to PRC, was the removal of the US military base, explicitly.So unless US switch recognition to ROC. Taiwan being more developed now. I doubt they want the type prostitution and unpunishable crimes of US service members that come with hosting a US base. [ SEE MY BLOG HERE ON THE TAIWAN ISSUE 👉https://theun-politics.blogspot.com/2021/09/the-taiwan-issue.html 👈 ]  Taiwan is going to be a EYE sore vary soon to the Biden Administration . SO AS we Americans should pay attention to the situation . First , I am going so say this in case you tune in the Mainstream News media , be gaslighted . Recently ,in  March. The United States has approved the potential sale of $619 million in new weapons to Taiwan, including missiles for its F-16 fleet, as the island reported a second day of large-scale Chinese air force incursions nearby.The arms sales are likely to further sour already tense ties between Washington and Beijing, which has repeatedly demanded such deals stop, viewing them as unwarranted support for democratically governed Taiwan, an island China claims as its own territory.This would provoke China. I think it would result in serious economic retaliation against the US and Taiwan. It would be expensive and further expand the US military which I am generally opposed to.It would be like the Cuban Missile Crisis for China, tantamount to a declaration of war. Other US bases are close enough to come defend [invade]  Taiwan in time should the time comes. The BIDEN too is beholden to China and is working furiously [ shooting itself in the foot] to hand over Taiwan before a conservative president is elected. Remember "they" will blame China first before creating they create situation over Taiwan .  It's exactly like what they did in Crimea when Obama stepped aside and let Russia have it.No, our politicians both sides work for the enemy. Get that through your head. Both sides are corrupt and don’t work for us. RIGHT AT MOST VULNERABLE TIME during the Presidential election .

NOTES AND COMMENTS : 

(1)>>IT WILL PROBABLY HAPPEN DURING THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION YEAR. I made this prediction when Biden first took office a year and a half ago: Taiwan will fly the CCP flag by the next presidential election. This is because the Biden administration is extremely weak and/or compromised by the CCP.(2)>>Taiwan from a unilateral Declaration . How can China invade a country named the Republic of China?I'm not being glib either. I am genuinely confused.Both nations claim they are the true China and own both the mainland and the island of Fermosa. The only difference is one side actually lost the war over 70 years ago.No, it has been over 70 years since the KMT lost the war and were deposed.They are not the legitimate government of China and not a single nation on the planet recognizes them as such, and haven't in 43 years.So the options are reunification or indepence, which the vast majority of Taiwanese people do not want. Under no circumstances whatsoever will reunification happen with the deposed fascist junta being given power over the mainland. That is not an option on the table and never has been, unless you are suggesting the US help a fascist party stage a coup.(3)>>You trigger a hot war with PRC.  How many wars are the commoners and brainwashed going to have to die in before we wake and realise as Carlin said " the game is rigged" ?Starting a war with a third world nation with an archaic military is bad enough but starting one with a nuclear armed one is an extinction level possibility for human civilization.You need to do more research if you think the US are the good guys who just want to spread democracy to the world. I wish that was the case but sadly as an American I realise it is not. This puts the US military in a bind, but what else is new. It also explains a lot of things. It explains the rigging of the 2020 election and the installation of the Biden regime, the most corrupt and degenerate collection of circus clowns every to sit in the White House. Because of their mishandling (purposeful sabotage) of military readiness by forcing the vaccine on troops we are now in a pathetic state to deal with an actual boots on the ground hot war. We are also depleting our arsenal by sending massive amounts of money and weapons to Ukraine and it's not slowing down. If Trump was not screwed none of this would be happening right now.

Kennedy and Elders Make their BID FOR 2024 AD .

LARRY ELDER and ROBERT F KENNEDY 
threw their bids for the 
2024 Election .
Praying that it’s not Biden vs Trump again.
but it's also ....
DEJAVU

AS AWKWARD as it seems . Both Robert F. Kennedy Jr. & Larry Elder launched their campaigns.  (1)>>This is going to be another confusing election coming up , so STAY TUNED . The findings  NOW underscore Biden's potential vulnerability to a more mainstream challenger for the Democratic nomination, although none has emerged so far, or to a third-party candidate in the general election. I actually don't mind Larry Elders generally speaking.  I WISH HE WON CALIFORNIA . But he is never going to win. All the GOP candidates are pointless. Leftist will be racist towards him for being a black conservative but other then that not much will happen. Still he's a nice guy wish him the best but no chance.  I will talk more about Larry Elder below .  It's going to be Trump. OR  (2)>>TRUMP V. DESANTIS .It's really hard to say.  (2.1)>>Kennedy is a name that resonates with old school Democrats . I feel like the word "challenge" in that headline is doing some heavy lifting here.  RFK was really popular, especially in the wake of the JFK assassination, but he was far more popular among the people than he was among his fellow Democrats. This would have resulted in a serious uphill battle for RFK. Back before the days of SuperPACS and billionaires fully funding campaigns, the parties had significant pull over elections, and they preferred politicians willing to tow the party line when push comes to shove.  (2.2>>RFK wasn't that kind of man, as he was mostly dedicated to civil rights and jobs, things that couldn't and wouldn't happen because of the parties. You can hate his opinions and political stances all day but please don't call him an "Uncle Tom". It blows my mind how many liberal and progressive people use that racist slur against black conservatives. Sad attention-seeker running in a long-ago faded Camelot glamour age.He’ll only end up embarrassing himself when he starts spouting his crazy vax conspiracy & anti-Semitic nonsense in the debates. It will be fun watching him on the 2024 debate stage, competing against  (3)>>Marianne Williamson for the Biggest Bat-Shit Crazy Grifter Prize.He probably just getting into the race like so many others, to make quick $$$ off gullible old nostalgic voters.Even if you thought he had even the most remote chance possible of winning, which he absolutely doesn't, the Democrats would just stack the deck in Biden's favor to virtually guarantee he's the nominee. The DNC would never let this guy get within 1000 miles of the nomination and Democratic voters are overwhelmingly going to agree.  

LARRY ELDER .

And one thing that strikes me as weird is how  (4)>>Larry Elder is seen by basically everybody. The Democrats appears(!) to hate him because the is republican. Which is understandable but more than once i have read the phrase "traitor to the african americans". So I have looked him up on Google and Youtube and found a couple of talk shows and Interviews. But from what I have seen he uses mostly pure statistics to explain his aversion towards f.e. BLM. I have found one interview on TMZ which I will link here - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xDfNnpTejhM.  Elder joins a Republican field that already includes former president Donald Trump, former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley, entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, and former Arkansas governor Asa Hutchison. The radio host last ran for office in 2021, when he received the most votes out of 46 people who were hoping to replace California governor Gavin Newsom in a recall effort. Though Elder was able to tap into frustration with the governor’s pandemic response, voters ultimately decided to keep Newsom in office.This isn’t Elder’s first high-profile campaign for office. In 2021, he was a briefly viable candidate to replace California governor Gavin Newsom in a recall election mostly spurred by unhappiness with Newsom’s COVID-19 policies (and his hypocrisy in violating them).   (5)>>Should Biden run, which he has said he is doing, the only major open field will be for a GOP candidate. In addition to Trump, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has been heavily rumored to declare his candidacy next year, as have other prominent Republicans such as Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), former Vice President Mike Pence, former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, and Maryland Governor Larry Hogan. And while Californians such as Harris and Newsom were expected to at least be mentioned for the Democrats, at least one Californian is already under speculation for 2024: Larry Elder. Indeed, Elder won nearly half the 7 million votes cast for “replacement” candidates to succeed Newsom had the incumbent been recalled; no other candidate made it into double-digit percentages.  “America is in decline, but this decline is not inevitable,” he tweeted on following his announcement. “We can enter a new American Golden Age, but we must choose a leader who can bring us there. That’s why I’m running for President.”

NOTES AND COMMENTS : 

(1)>>This is going to be another confusing election coming up. I asked an AI what the 2024 election results will look like. The results are pretty confusing. LOOMING on the horizon is a lot factors. Tensions with China , a much heated war with Russia .  CHINA INVADES TAIWAN after US TROOPS are deployed , Right in the Middle of a Presidential election year could throw the country into a panic . Ignoring current polling and merely going off of recently electoral trends, it would appear that Donald Trump faces an uphill battle as the presumptive 2024 GOP candidate. He narrowly won 2016 against an (in hindsight) unpopular Democratic challenger, he lost 2020 even as an incumbent, and Republicans generally underperformed in the 2022 midterms. In 2024, he will likely still be embroiled in various political and legal scandals, as well as no longer have his incumbent advantage. Additionally, if the US economy is able to tame inflation and avert a major recession, Biden will have considerable wind at his back as Americans simply want to maintain the status quo.Despite all of this, it appears that Trump and the GOP are going full steam ahead with their plan to run Trump and oppose all manner of Dem policy. In order to envision a Trump win, what things would need to happen? What strategies would Trump and the GOP need to employ to defeat Biden as the presumptive Dem nominee? What missteps would the Democrats need to make? Which states would most likely be the tipping points and how/why would they flip from 2020?(2)>>TRUMP V. DESANTIS . The more they fight, the harder they fail. Even if Desantis somehow gets the nomination, Trump won’t go quietly. He will siphon off enough voters to make the general a joke. If you really think the current situation is comparable to 2016, I don’t really know what to tell you. Abortion is being banned left and right, schools are banning books. Trump got demolished in 2020. Even DeSantis is avoiding talking about abortion because he knows it’s toxic to any aspirations he has. It’s a different world now.Trump got lucky. The country learned from that mistake by overwhelmingly voting for Biden. Yeah, but he's very unelectable outside of Florida, where he currently has a super majority to pass all of these batshit crazy laws. To say nothing of his crazy unpopular policies, he's just a straight up weirdo who has difficulty maintaining eye contact and lying about things like where he was on 9/11. He is untested with the national media and on the national debate stage (if Republicans ever have a debate again). He didn't even perform well in his gubernatorial debate with Charlie Crist. The difference is no Democrat will vote for Trump nor DeSantis. Kyrsten Sinema is a whole other monster: 8% (I believe) approval with Democrats. She will attract some Republican voters to, especially against an extreme candidate. AZ is also a somewhat blue state, so as long as there’s not a huge disparity between Dems and Reps voting for Sinema, Gallego should win, albeit more narrowly than Dems would like. because DeSantis and Trump are extremely close to each other while Sinema is branding herself as a centrist independent in between both partiesit's like having a 1, 3, 6 and then a 1, 5, 6 if you get my example, with Dems being the 1 in both scenarios. (2.1)>>Kennedy is a name that resonates with old school Democrats . What are the likely or potential impacts on his entry to the race? The DNC has not yet committed to primary debates, does RFK make them more or less likely? Biden has still not announced that he's running, will this affect his decision?RFK's positions on Covid arguably appeal more to certain independents and GOP voters than the Democratic primary base, so might we see cross-over primary voters? Will the GOP or people in Trump world try to promote him for their own purposes such as weakening Biden, like the Clinton campaign did with Trump in their 'pied piper' strategy?25-30 years ago a Kennedy namesake mounting a presidential bid would have generated a lot of buzz. A lot of people were still around who recalled fondly the whole "Camelot" era. But nowadays the family has largely faded as a political force, outside of perhaps Massachusetts. And even then, RFK Jr. doesn't even have the support of most of his family in his quixotic run.  (2.2>>RFK wasn't that kind of man, as he was mostly dedicated to civil rights and jobs, things that couldn't and wouldn't happen because of the parties. SO WILL BE DEJAVU ???This is one of these questions I think about a lot. I think RFK would have been a great president, better even than his brother.First, I think RFK learns from JFK's relationship with Johnson, and chooses a running mate who's much closer to him ideologically: maybe someone like Eugene McCarthy or Al Gore Sr. Nixon still runs, out of spite for the Kennedys, more than anything else. Wallace does marginally better in the south, maybe picking up South Carolina, but RFK takes California and Florida and cleans up in the rust belt for the win.RFK does not escalate the war like Nixon, and the war is just about wrapped up by 1970. Domestically, RFK follows a moderate-liberal path, with an emphasis on the environment (establishes some form of the EPA), reform of the legal system (more money for courts, more public defenders, more treatment programs/alternative sentencing, blanket pardon of draft dodgers and many arrested protesters) and urban/poverty issues.RFK wins reelection in 1972 on the platform of ending the war, against George Romney (his anti Vietnam positions look a lot better in this timeline--and RFK being a New York "moderate" pretty much knocks out Rockefeller.) I don't know enough about Soviet history to say what their reaction would be to RFK, but I believe he would have tried to start summits with Brezhnev. By 1976, the Dem party has been in power for 16 straight years, and ends up being blamed (fairly or unfairly) for much of the problems with America. A slow economy, the collapse of South Vietnam and high oil also burden the party. As much as President Kennedy is personally liked and admired, it's almost impossible for the Dems to keep the White House. Ronald Reagan wins in the "California election" against Jerry Brown. The 80's begin four years early. RFK ends up a popular, well-liked former president with his own charitable organization--the Kennedy Foundation.    (3)>>Marianne Williamson for the Biggest Bat-Shit Crazy Grifter Prize. People downvoting this aren’t paying attention. Marianne Williamson is one of the most cogent, compassionate, and ethical voices amongst political public figures today. Seriously go check out her Twitter or check her out on YouTube and see what she has to say before jumping on the bandwagon. She is a better progressive than most of the progressives in congress.  She outlasted Kamala Harris. Harris suspended her primary campaign on Dec 3, 2019. Williamson didn't suspend until January 10, 2020.Mariam said that on CNN during interview: Guy was like side eye, ““You really think the DNC is “rigging” the election for Biden?”” She responded, “They’re not even hiding it!” And she went on to explain the obvious, including the DNC not wanting debates with Biden.Yeah, but the corporate media have to do that whole predictable "Here we go -- another fringe nut-job who doesn't have a prayer! See, everyone? She's bonkers! Who would waste a vote on this paranoid loon?!" pantomime. Meanwhile, the DNC keep stacking the deck... She also supports Medicare for all, she understands that 40,000 people die each year because they are either under insured or not insured at all. I have a personal story on this I worked of a mobile urgent care client, it was basically a call center I have talked to a lot of the employees and many of them feel desensitized because they answer around 20-50 calls a day talking to people who are terrified because they don’t have insurance, they would if they had money opt for the self pay, or they would often cry because they couldn’t afford the self pay which was $200. Marianne also supports peace ☮️ ✌️ not war. Joe Biden should be called Drone Strike Biden. Hope your New Year is well. Peace be with you on your journey to love.❤️.  (4)>>Larry Elder is seen by basically everybody. Larry Elder - This one makes the most sense probably. After running for governor in California, he shows he isn't afraid to get into the real politics of it all outside of being a commentator. He is a black man (staving off the racist argument against Trump). He is very well-known and agrees with Trump on mostly everything. Only problem is that he's planning on his own presidential bid and one time refused to be labeled a Trump supporter specifically (as opposed to simply a "Republican").Larry Elder lost the recall because he was too conservative for independents in California. You don't go from solid blue CA to red in one election especially with the governor's office. Republicans should have coalesced around Kevin Faulconer who was a true moderate that ruled over blue San Diego quite successfully. If CA Republicans want any shot at high office in CA, they need to rally the pissed off guys in the middle, and believe me, there are a lot of us. (5)>>Should Biden run. I wouldn't be so confident. Biden won the election but had small margins of victory in key swing states, with Georgia, Arizona, and Wisconsin all having a margin of victory that was less than 1%. Considering the state of the economy and a likely drop in turnout, a 2016 style victory is very plausible for Donald Trump in 2024. I’ve been looking at the prospective 2024 GOP candidates. They include Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley, Mike Pence and Mike Pompeo.Do any of these people have even a fraction of Trumps appeal? Hate to say it, but Trump won in 2016 because he represented much of what normal GOPrs want. They liked his attitude and his ability to communicate in short, aggrieved spurts.He has the unique ability to make himself look persecuted and mistreated and ability to insinuate that he sympathizes with whatever grievance or mistreatment his supporters may have suffered. Depending on who you ask though, he despises his most fervent uneducated supporters and wouldn’t permit them within a mile of Mar a Lago.He did great in 2020. He won the typical razor thin Ohio and Florida by comfortably margins and got more votes than any Republican president in history.Biden won, but not by a tremendous amount. If you ask me, Biden is the only one of the Dem candidates in 2020 who could have won. Could Warren, Sanders or Harris have sealed the deal? I don’t think so!Is Trump the present and future of the GOP? I'm not saying Trump is a shoo-in to win in 2024, Trump has weaknesses as a candidate in 2024 too but I think this sub is underestimating his chances.
