President Joe Biden is dropping out of the 2024 presidential race, and will "focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term."
DJ, biden thinks he can remain president untill january...Most will see he has to step down NOW !

The political crisis-during a complex healthcrisis-is unacceptable !

I am sure you were good advisor and I hope Biden and Democrats have taken note that Covid needs to be addressed still today as it has affected the president health and affects the health of millions. Him and the future president have other challenges like climate. I think addressing Covid intelligently is ultimately beneficial to finances, happiness and climate. I also thank POTUS for his service and decision today. Wishing

Well you have already experienced a Trump presidency so you know what is in store for us. I haven’t forgotten either. Frankly I can’t do this again.

DJ, Dealing with pandemics is a big job. When trump left the White House at least vaccines may have offered some hope to end CoViD. 

No doubt Kamala Harris soon will replace biden...The US and global health situation did get WORSE !!!

CoViD is not over-just out of the news-like Mpox...H5N1 must have dozens of human cases in the US. The underlying climate collapse only got worse...

DJ-This is NOT a political forum but "politics" has to do a job in public health. And it is NOT doing that enough !

If this was any other country but the US we would be reporting these happenings as a potential problem for public health delivery. We do not make any exceptions for the US. We have reported these types of events for Egypt, China, Russia...to name just a few.

We follow the general political situations around the world as they are the basis for the various countries' public health platforms. Generally there is a correlation between an unstable political situation and a poor public health performance.

There are many links to this major news. Here is just one. Please google for more.



Biden drops out of presidential race and endorses Harris to be nominee

DJ, Of course the US is a "major global player" and funding lots of wars...So political chaos in the US goes much further then (US) healthcare...

Again-the world NEEDS TO KNOW WHO IS RUNNING THE US !!!!

The present chaos is totally unacceptable ! It will "weaken" the US-and divide "the west".

DJ, Welcome historical perspective; 

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/chaos-ensued-last-time-us-president-bowed-out-only-months-election - https://www.zerohedge.com/political/chaos-ensued-last-time-us-president-bowed-out-only-months-election or https://www.zerohedge.com/political/chaos-ensued-last-time-us-president-bowed-out-only-months-election ;

We have seen similar rhetoric in recent days surrounding Biden's proclamation, with many predicting a trend towards "unity."  If history is any indication, this optimism is a pipe dream.  

The Democratic Party was plunged into confusion over their prospective candidates and their chances.  

Johnson insisted on controlling party decisions on who would take his place, but there were other candidates that might disrupt Johnson's plans, including Robert Kennedy, brother of John F. Kennedy. 

Though Biden has endorsed Kamala Harris to take his place as the Dem candidate, the official decision is up to DNC delegates, not Biden.  

An upset at the convention might sound unlikely, but it is certainly possible if Harris is viewed as too incompetent or unpopular to run against Trump. 

Only five days after Lyndon Johnson's speech, Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated by a "lone gunman" in Memphis, TN.  

Two months later, Robert Kennedy was shot and killed by a "lone gunman" after a campaign event celebrating his California primary win.

Trump's near assassination just before Biden's announcement to step down may mark a renewed period of political violence on a scale not seen since the 1960s.  

Suspicions of conspiracy are only magnified by the similarities to the LBJ era of multiple assassinations.    

Despite hopes that Johnson's departure would lead to peaceful conditions his replacement Hubert Humphrey promised to continue Johnson's policies in lockstep, including the war in Vietnam.  

This enraged activists and resulted in riots around the convention in Chicago that summer.  Johnson's "Great Society" agenda had also left the country with deep racial divisions to be inherited by the next president and Humphrey was certain to expand on that agenda. 

Richard Nixon and the Republicans were given an assured win. 

 Humphrey was crushed by Nixon by a comfortable margin in the electoral college with many analysts suggesting Johnson would have done better had he stayed in the race.  Nixon became the first former (non-sitting) vice president to win a presidential election; he was the only person to achieve that until Joe Biden during the 2020 presidential election. 

Nixon would enter office with a recession in progress and ultimately an energy crisis and stagflationary crisis hit hard (he didn't help matters much when he started the process to remove the US dollar from the gold standard in 1971).  

There's an array of economic threats facing the next president in 2025, with the most likely prospect being Trump and conservatives stepping into a financial and geopolitical mine field.  Biden's announcement likely heralds another tumultuous period in American history.      


DJ, biden still has to make clear WHY he stepped out of the (s)elections...IF he claims health reasons he must also make clear why he wants to stay president untill january 20-2025...

In many ways the US in 2024 is in a much worse situation then in 1952 (truman) or 1968 (johnson). 

A car needs a driver...if the driver for healthreasons can not drive the car one needs another driver...NOT doing so is asking for very serious accidents !

DJ-"The west" is sinking in an even worsening crisis-not only the US. "Politics" has fallen into the hands of "donors", "lobbyists" and lost contact with most of the public...

Pandemics are very serious crises. Governments need to have public support in dealing with those crises...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong_flu#United_States - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong_flu#United_States or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong_flu#United_States ; On 18 December, it was reported that  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson - President Johnson  had been hospitalized at  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Reed_National_Military_Medical_Center - Bethesda Naval Hospital  with flu-like symptoms, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong_flu#cite_note-:10-54 - [54]  but whether the new variant was the cause of his illness was not made clear. He returned to the  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_House - White House  on 22 December. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong_flu#cite_note-55 - [55]   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubert_Humphrey - Vice President Humphrey  was also reported to be ailing from the flu on the day Johnson's condition was revealed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong_flu#cite_note-:10-54 - [54]  Flu-like illness kept other senior governmental officials from their posts around this time, such as  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Security_Advisor_%28United_States%29 - National Security Advisor   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walt_Rostow - Walt Rostow , Deputy White House Press Secretary  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Johnson_%28journalist%29 - Tom Johnson , and  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chairman_of_the_Joint_Chiefs_of_Staff - chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earle_Wheeler - General Earle Wheeler . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong_flu#cite_note-56 - [56]  On 23 December, it was reported that  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Nixon - President-elect Nixon  had been ill with the flu at  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julie_Nixon_Eisenhower - his daughter 's wedding the day before. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong_flu#cite_note-57 - [57]  Nixon later claimed that "the wedding cured the flu." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong_flu#cite_note-58 - [58]

DJ, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson#1968_presidential_election - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson#1968_presidential_election or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson#1968_presidential_election ;
On March 28, spurred by his health issues and the growing realization that his political capital was vanishing, Johnson again considered withdrawing and discussed the possibility with  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_A._Califano_Jr. - Joseph A. Califano Jr  and  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_McPherson - Harry McPherson . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson#cite_note-268 - [266]  Three days after meeting with Califano and McPherson, Johnson announced that  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Withdrawal_of_Lyndon_B._Johnson_from_the_1968_United_States_presidential_election - "I shall not seek, and I will not accept, the nomination of my party for another term as your President." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson#cite_note-269 - [267]  The next day, the president's approval ratings increased from 36 percent to 49 percent. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson#cite_note-Updegrove12-270 - [268]
so the Hong Kong Flu (H3N2) pandemic started AFTER johnson stepped out of the election...

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s https://nypost.com/2024/07/22/world-news/netanyahu-heads-to-dc-to-meet-with-president-biden-kamala-harris/ -  upcoming meeting with President Joe Biden  has been canceled as the president continues to focus on recovering from COVID-19, according to multiple reports.

The Israeli leader was slated to meet with Biden, 81, on Tuesday to discuss the future of the war in Gaza, but officials in Netanyahu’s office said the meeting has been called off,  https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/reports-netanyahu-biden-meeting-likely-wont-be-held-tomorrow/ - The Times of Israel and other outlets report.

The decision comes after Biden has remained out of the public eye after https://nypost.com/2024/07/17/us-news/biden-tests-positive-for-covid-cancels-speech/ -  testing positive for COVID-19  while traveling in Las Vegas last Wednesday.


DJ, If indeed biden would NOT meet (in any form-a window in between them) netanyahu it gives room for questions...

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/netanyahu-have-separate-meetings-biden-harris-likely-trump-too - https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/netanyahu-have-separate-meetings-biden-harris-likely-trump-too or https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/netanyahu-have-separate-meetings-biden-harris-likely-trump-too ;

It has been about a week since President Joe Biden has been seen in public or on camera, and six days since his Covid-19 diagnosis. His meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who just arrived in Washington, was initially scheduled for Tuesday, but that has been pushed back till Thursday, Fox reports, while also noting that "Israeli officials were confused if the two leaders would meet at all."

As of Monday afternoon the president was at Rehoboth Beach, Delaware - said to be recovering and in isolation. Amid rumors and speculation about his health, there's another obvious question: when will the US President and Commander-in-Chief actually be seen?

It appears Netanyahu is set to be the first foreign official to literally lay eyes on Biden, and up close, since the Democratic president announced he is withdrawing from running for a second term Sunday.


DJ...?????

Update (1400ET): After six days of darkness, the leader of the free world has made a physical appearance, exiting a vehicle, mumbling incoherently at reporters, and carefully ascending the stairs of the smaller AF1...

"He's Alive!!"


https://www.moonofalabama.org/2024/07/did-biden-quit.html - https://www.moonofalabama.org/2024/07/did-biden-quit.html or https://www.moonofalabama.org/2024/07/did-biden-quit.html ;

Given the headlines which say he did you might wonder why I ask if Biden has quit his attempt to get reelected.

But look at 'his'  https://x.com/JoeBiden/status/1815080881981190320 - rather weird letter  which was distributed via the Joe Biden campaign X/Twitter account.


https://www.moonofalabama.org/19i/bidenquit.jpg - bigger

There is no official letterhead. The formulations are obviously not by Joe Biden and the signature looks canned.

-

https://x.com/LauraLoomer/status/1815217607932326297 - This says  that Ricchetti, Biden's aide, wrote and posted the letter.

There was no speech and no press conference. People working on Biden's campaign had no pre-warning.

Biden allegedly endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the new Democrat candidate for the presidency.

Let's remember that Harris, of Asian/Indian decent but playing black, is a former California prosecutor who failed in 2020 to get any votes in the primaries. Biden selected her as his vice because she was a woman of color not because she is a person fit for the job.

What does it say about a democracy when some obscure party functionaries and billionaire donors contradict the will of the primary voters and decide against another presidency for Joe Biden?

What does it say about a democracy when similar powers install a new candidate who is by no means qualified and has never received any votes?


DJ, based on "Real-politik" it may be better to have Kamala Harris on the steering wheel than to find no one is driving the US....

The US political crisis/chaos has to be stopped by the US political elite....There are too many crises going on to have on top of that also the biden-disaster...

DJ, An India-YouTube host also noticed; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jT6K7qAwrDo - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jT6K7qAwrDo or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jT6K7qAwrDo jimmy Dore;

When Did Biden Get So Tall?!?

Looking at recent pictures it seems biden "did grow"...It may be he is walking more straight/upward..less a bit tilted forward...

There have been "stories" of biden being in a very bad health-after "testing+ for CoViD"...

On "twitter" some "biden-supporters" go as far as to demand anyone asking any questions about "biden" needs to be kicked of from twitter/internet...

Breaking: John Kirby confirmed that Iran is funding the protests in the US: “We do know that Iran has been funding and encouraging some of the protest activity here in the United States.”

DJ...just crazy ! (By the way I am against both biden and trump-but I am Dutch so it is not -directly- my problem...).
