Right on cue. If their underground PR office is to be believed, ISIS has now named a new leader. ISI is warning US against any untoward ‘rejoicing’ or gloating as President Trump has been doing since last weekend’s media festival in the US.

All bets are off now as the UK Parliament green-lights a general election for December. What are Boris’ chance and where will this leave BREXIT? Can Jeremy Corbyn and Labour rally enough support to overcome the current Conservative majority?

As US president and commander-in-chief, the buck stops with him, bearing executive authority for what’s happening on his watch.

Like his predecessors, Trump operates as a frontman for the military, industrial, security complex, Wall Street, and other monied interests. As commander-in-chief, he continues endless US wars of aggression in multiple theaters, along with economic terrorism on Iran, Venezuela, North Korea, Cuba, and other nations on the US target list for regime change — including China and Russia.
