Vivek Ramaswani: A Globalist Usurper in the Republican Camp?

Republican Presidential Candidate Vivek Ramaswani talks a good talk, but will he walk the walk.

Here in the UK we have Rushi Sunak, who makes all the right noises, but fails to deliver on ANY of his promises or policies. 

Talking Conservative means absolutely nothing if you're basically lying and then go on to enact effectively Socialist policies.

Just be careful America, you might not get what you think you are voting for.

I'm a bit sceptical about Vivek, because he's come from nowhere to beat DeSantis in the polls and if Trump gets taken out by lawfare, then he's the de-facto next President of the USA. Who is funding him and how has he beaten the Freedom Loving Floridian DeSantis? Twelve months ago DeSantis was the saviour of the pandemic, now he's effectively cast as Trump's enemy.

All a bit too convenient, a bit too clean, a bit to obvious. But then the yanks don't do subtle and don't always see the villains hiding behind the trees.

I see Vivek as the Deep State option, the Globalist in Freedom-Loving Clothes, one to continue the Status Quo. He's definitely not the disrupter the USA needs to free it's people.

Just as Rishi isn't here in the UK. 

The globalists are winning and sadly our children and Grandchildren are losing and will continue to lose unless we put a stop to it at the ballot box. We need to stop the corruption and backhanders and what was back in the day called the old boy's club. Nowadays it's the corporate greed club. 

It needs to stop. We need to vote to disrupt it.

My Thoughts on the Donald Trump Charges.

Donald Trump has been charged with something like 80-odd charges so far and there's talk of more. 

Now to me, if he was so criminally culpable as to attract all these charges, why wasn't something done while he was in office? Why has it taken so long: between 4 and 8 years to bring them? Would they have been brought if Trump had not contested the next election?

Why have lawyers that advised him been indicted, just for giving legal advice?

IF he was charged while in office, when the alleged offences happened, then fine, they'd be more believable.

BUT (Big but): We already know the Russiagate scandal that dogged Trump's presidency was a false, concocted set of allegations. We eventually found out the truth.

The document "scandal" involving Trump also applies to Biden and his tranche of documents. Both are equally culpable, so then shouldn't both be charged equally? Because the federal authorities are saying not even the President of The United States of America is above the law. Fair enough, but apply the law equally to both.

Then just in case the charges on the documents don't stick, the US authorities then threw in the charges on Trump's tax affairs. Ah, the old Capone trick. Can't get him for anything, dig into his financials and try to pin tax evasion on him. 

Interesting that it's over making hush payments via his lawyer. Let the first Democrat politician throw stones, because sure as hell, if the Republicans get in, they should be looking into every single Democrat politician's financial affairs. Especially Democrat Presidents like Biden. I'm sure there is much to see there.

And now we get to the latest charges for just questioning the result of what was quite clearly election process irregularities. How much they affected the election is a question that needs to be answered.

The key question is whether Trump truly believed he election was fraudulent and he was looking for missing votes or whether he believed he had lost the election and was trying to fabricate votes. Confession by projection from the Democrats possibly?

Anyhoo, it's quite clear that by employing lawfare against Trump, like the authorities have against anyone that doesn't follow a certain narrative, then I assume the Republicans will respond in kind when they get in power.

Reap what you sow and all that. Yes, it's time for those supposed God-Fearing Republicans to go Biblical on the Democrats. .

Putin, the Hard Bastard of Global Politics.

 Well, Yevgeny Progozhin, the leader of the Wagner Mercenary Group has apparently come to an untimely demise in a private jet. Unsurprisingly, I hasten to add, because it was only a matter of time until Progozhin came to an untimely end at the hands of Putin's secret Service.

The video of the <cough> "Accident" shows the tailess plane uncontrollably spinning into the ground.

Here's a picture of the area of the sky the plane fell out of:

You can see in the top left the puffs of smoke that appears to mark the initiation of the event. (A long trail, then a fainter puff of smoke). 

Now that appears to be to show that something happened, then the plane broke up quickly. The initial smoke trail is quite short. One can imagine the plane experienced some event, then travelled a very short way, then lost control. I would expect a sudden nose up attitude due to the loss of the tail and it's horizontal stabiliser. 

One thing to note is there will not be a vapour trail from any missile as it hits the plane, if it was indeed shot down. Air to air missiles tend to make trails as they get up to speed and then don't necessarily make one at the point they hit the target. 

The immediate and sudden pitch up virtually stopped the plane in it's tracks. It then began to free-fall as denoted by the trail markers. 

Anyway, not sure if that is indicative of a shoot down. There were jet noises in the background of the video, but the jet noises ended when the plane hit the ground, so it could have just been the engines of the doomed jet rather than a fighter jet circling round it's target. 

Anyway, if Progozhin was dumb enough to be taking flights after crossing Putin, that's on him. I know he had at least one meeting with Putin after the supposed coup, but I don't know what happened during the meeting or how it went between the two men. 

Whether Progozhin convinced Putin his beef was with the generals, or if Putin took it as an attack against himself at that meeting, I guess we now know that it's the latter.

It also shows that yet again Putin is happy to dispense with people that are a threat to him at the expense of innocent lives. I'm sure the pilots of the jet had done nothing to anger Putin, other than ferry Progozhin around. I suppose in the mind of a Psychopath, they're aiding the enemy and also fair game.

There have been a number of plane crashes in Russia and the ex-Soviet states. It makes you wonder whether aircrews would start to refuse to fly certain targets.

It would be interesting if Progozhin wasn't on the aircraft though...
