 as the sain't obama said, nothing the biden does is done well as he can mess up anything and here is a bit of that;


Showcasing the political intents of the Biden administration to arrest and jail his political opposition, the campaign of Joe Biden thought it would be a good idea to hold a press conference outside the New York City courthouse where closing arguments are taking place.  The Biden team thought it would be a good idea to showcase the politics of the prosecution; go figure.

Supporting the effort was the washed-up actor Robert De Niro, known in acting circles as Hollywood’s tallest midget (video below). The actor was heckled by the pro-Trump supporters near the courthouse and the Biden campaign team was visibly frustrated.  Things just didn’t go well for them. The whole event was really goofy.  WATCH:............more.......

 in times like these ending a war is difficult so larry johnson has some info and thoughts in that direction;


Diverse European voices are desperately warning that with the Ukraine project spiralling towards débacle, a humiliated West is left with little choice but to escalate drastically, and bring NATO — in some form, whether limited or not — into the fight. 

The former British (Conservative) MP Andrew Bridgen states that this strategic shift (whose speed caught the Europeans unawares), is forcing Europe to face war with Russia. 

In fact, Bridgen warns: ‘We (Britain), are ‘already at war’ with Russia. This is the real reason, he explains, why Rishi Sunak has called an early election — he refuses to be a ‘war time president’.  He is effectively handing over ‘the baton’ to Keir Starmer (probably to fly away to California after 4 July — voting day). “The Generals” have warned Sunak that the order ‘had come down’ for war with Russia. And Sunak does not wish to be part of it.

Whether Bridgen is right or not on the specifics, there is undoubtedly a chorus out there saying the same thing. Is this cacophony of sudden war warnings merely that which (Matt Taibbi calls) an example of the ‘Elephant Erasure Project’?  By which we are constantly being instructed not to see the elephants in the room.

And there are a lot of them: Open borders; plunging standards of living; high prices; runaway debt and dropping ratings for Biden. Add to that, the White House is continuing to arm the Israelis and green-light the Rafah military operation — at the very moment that the ICJ has ordered destruction of lives stopped. A plain oxymoron.

Of course, Team Biden is ‘not for turning’ on its “ironclad” support for the Israelis, yet the only thing that is clear is that the war-warning is not necessarily literally true — except in wanting to truly scare and divert us from the ‘Elephants’.   .........more........

 the continuing ukie assault on russians will now proceed to the finish line;


The upcoming summit, whether Piss or Peace, has all the makings of a debacle. Zelensky is no longer recognized by Russia as a legitimate negotiating partner; Joe Biden is taking a pass in order to raise bucks from the Hollywood glitterati, and none of the BRICS nations will attend. I suspect the Russians will use this meeting as an opportunity to deliver a powerful, embarrassing military strike that will underscore Ukraine’s precarious position.

There has been quite a bit of worry over the reports of two drone attacks on Russia’s strategic radar stations in Armavir and Orsk. Steve Bryen provides an excellent overview of the worst case. While these attacks show that Ukraine is desperate and willing to risk provoking a Russian nuclear response, albeit tactical, the actual effect in terms of damage is negligible. Moreover, the Russian Government and media’s muted response reflects, in my judgment, that this was a Ukrainian intelligence information operation, fully backed by the West, as opposed to a full-blown attack designed to cripple Russia’s strategic radar system.

I think the law of unintended consequences is going to take over. Russia is now probably reviewing its air defense systems around these facilities, having apparently discounted the drone threat. I would not be surprised to see Moscow take immediate steps to boost air defense, including the installation of powerful Electronic Warfare systems, in and around the strategic radar sites throughout Russia. Yes, Russia can walk and chew gum at the same time. Russia also will likely increase targeting of Ukrainian drone facilities and work with friendly neighboring countries, such as Kazakstan, to identify and destroy sabotage teams............more..........

 nice family you have there. hate to see anything happen to them, or so say the israeli providing one more bit of evidence on who the zionists really are;


Former Mossad head Yossi Cohen reportedly threatened the ICC's chief prosecutor for investigating Israel's war crimes by telling her, "You don't want to be getting into things that could compromise your security or that of your family."

From The Guardian, "Revealed: Israeli spy chief 'threatened' ICC prosecutor over war crimes inquiry":

The former head of the Mossad, Israel's foreign intelligence agency, allegedly threatened a chief prosecutor of the international criminal court in a series of secret meetings in which he tried to pressure her into abandoning a war crimes investigation, the Guardian can reveal.

Yossi Cohen's covert contacts with the ICC's then prosecutor, Fatou Bensouda, took place in the years leading up to her decision to open a formal investigation into alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in occupied Palestinian territories.

That investigation, launched in 2021, culminated last week when Bensouda's successor, Karim Khan, announced that he was seeking an arrest warrant for the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, over the country's conduct in its war in Gaza.

The prosecutor's decision to apply to the ICC's pre-trial chamber for arrest warrants for Netanyahu and his defence minister, Yoav Gallant, alongside three Hamas leaders, is an outcome Israel's military and political establishment has long feared............more.......

 any disapproval of israel, zionism, or joos is automatically anti-semitic say the joos, no matter how its expressed or what's being the focus. 


Just one day after Israel decapitated a small child and killed dozens of displaced Palestinians in an airstrike on a tent city in Gaza, the New York Times ran a column stating that accusing Israel of genocide is a "canard" invoking an "ancient antisemitic blood libel."

James Kirchick wrote in a column on Monday for the New York Times:

One of the greatest mass delusions of the 21st century is the belief that Israel is committing a genocide against Palestinians. This grotesque moral inversion -- in which a genocidal terrorist organization that instigated a war with Israel by committing the largest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust is absolved of responsibility while the victim of Hamas's attack is charged with perpetrating the worst crime known to man -- began taking shape before Israel even launched its ground invasion of Gaza.

A charitable description of those imputing genocidal motivations to Israel is that they are ignorant, essentially believing the word to mean "large numbers of civilian casualties." (Here it's worth noting that the United Nations, to little notice, has significantly lowered its estimate of the number of women and children killed in Gaza.) For others, accusing Israel of genocide is an emotional outlet for expressing outrage at such a horrific loss of life. A third, more pessimistic, characterization of the ubiquitous genocide canard is that it is only the latest iteration of the ancient antisemitic blood libel, which held that Jews murdered gentile children in order to use their blood for religious rituals.

As I reported on Sunday, prominent Israelis celebrated the strike as part of their religious holiday of Lag Ba'Omer............more.........
