*** Gov Gavin Newsom (D-CA) to World Leaders: 'Dummkopf Trumpf is Temporary' ***

"California Gov. Gavin Newsom called on world leaders attending the Munich Security Conference in Germany to think about a future without Dummkopf Trumpf.

Newsom's comments on climate policy reflected the larger theme of his message for Europe.

"I hope if there is nothing else I communicate today: Dummkopf Trumpf is temporary. He'll be gone in three years."

The primary field for both Democrats and Republicans to replace Dummkopf Trumpf is under discussion already in political circles and webblogs. In those discussions, the telegenic, calm, handsome, and witty governor of a state whose economy now is slightly larger than Japan's, is a favorite among Democrats.

Gavin Newsom is a Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) protege and her next project after retiring is getting her political apprentice elected POTUS in 2028. She will collect a massive federal retirement to add to her immense wealth.

But Nancy Pelosi's massive AIPAC baggage has dragged her down and Gavin Newsom's support for Israel could be a liability with millions of progressive antiwar voters on Tuesday 7 Nov 2028, as we saw what happened to VPOTUS Kamala Harris (D) and Gov Tim Walz (D-MN) on Tuesday 5 Nov 2024.

Last year, disgraced ex-NYS Governor Andrew "Benedict Arnold" Cuomo's Islamophobic AIPAC baggage crippled his mayoral campaign and now we happily have Democrat Zohran Mamdani as Mayor of the "World's Capital."


Kevin Charles Luke served in both active duty and reserve components of the US Army from 1981 until retiring with the rank of Colonel on 30 June 2018. Following his retirement, Luke was employed as a civilian employee at USCENTCOM in Tampa, Florida.

"In October 2024, Luke sent a woman a text message from his personal cellphone that stated, "sent to my boss earlier, gives you a peek at what I do for a living." Following that message, he sent a photograph of a computer screen displaying a classified email message that he had authored and sent using a government email address intended for classified email communications. The photograph of the classified email also revealed targets of a planned US military operation as well as the future date of the operation, the means of executing the operation, and the goal of the operation. The email contained classified markings at the Secret level that Luke himself had added. The unauthorized release of the information contained within the photograph could be expected to cause serious damage to the national security of the US."

Kevin Luke served 37 years in the US Army arduously building up his name and reputation and becoming a potential general officer. Whether he is separated, married, divorced or a widower is unclear, but Luke seemed to be lonely and wanted to impress this woman that he had recently met. Rather than just show her his military portrait, or other photos taken of him during his long career, Luke made a terrible mistake and needlessly tried to "show off" to her, throwing away 37 years of building up his good name and reputation all in one fell swoop. Colonel Luke will have two years to think about this ghastly mistake and hopefully Judge Moody requests he be incarcerated in a nearby minimal security FCI in Florida.

**** US Preparing for Lengthy Military Operations Against Iran ****

FTA:

"The US military is preparing for the possibility of sustained, weeks-long operations against Iran if Dummkopf Trumpf orders an attack, in what could become a far more serious conflict than previously seen between the countries.

Good-for-nothing US oligarchs Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner will hold negotiations with Iran on Tuesday in Geneva Switzerland, with representatives from Oman acting as mediators. US Secretary of State Empty Suit Marco Rubio bleated that while Trumpf's preference was to reach a deal with Tehran, "that's very hard to do."

Meanwhile, the geriatric warmongering pedophile occupying a half-demolished White House has amassed military forces in the region, raising fears of military action. The Gerald R. Ford Aircraft Carrier Strike Group is enroute to the Middle East to join the Abraham Lincoln CSG which is already there, adding thousands of more troops along with fighter aircraft, guided-missile destroyers, and other firepower capable of waging attacks and defending against them.

The US fully expects Iran to defend itself against illegal US or Israeli aggression in accordance with international law. A sustained campaign against Iran carries more risk to US Servicemembers in the Middle East and will cost American taxpayers billions of dollars that could be better used in the US to combat hunger, homelessness, or spreading diseases like measles."

Whether the US and Israel succeed in toppling the regime in Tehran this year before Election Day on Tuesday 2 Nov 2027, the multi-million antiwar bloc, a movement as old as the American Revolution itself, will not vote for any candidate of either party that accepts AIPAC money or supports an attack against a sovereign country.
