Biden Drops Out

It was always going to happen…and now it has. Incumbent President Joe Biden has officially dropped out of the race, endorsing Kamala Harris as his replacement on the Democratic ticket.

Despite backing Biden as recently as 24-hours ago, Hillary and Bill Clinton have joined Biden in endorsing Harris, meaning the nomination of the current Vice President is probably a nailed-on certainty at this point.

The question is…why?

Harris was such a failure of a candidate in the 2020 election she dropped out of the primaries after being embarrassed by Tulsi Gabbard in a debate.

She is frequently bizarrely incoherent in her speeches, and she doesn’t even have Biden’s dementia as an excuse.

It’s hard to see how she is a better candidate than Biden, or countless others in the Democrat field.

Biden will be the first incumbent President not to seek re-election since Lyndon B Johnson in 1968, an election Republican Richard Nixon won in a landslide.

…which raises the question of deliberately throwing it for Trump. Time will tell I guess.

Prof. Rieck: “Team Biden outsmarts the Democrats: Kamala Harris (Strategem 12). Team Biden is in truth Team Biden-Harris – and has led a sheep away with a light hand (as the 36 Stratagems say).” Activate auto-subs.

PS: Unfortunately, the YouTube translation repeatedly mis-
interprets the name Biden as “both” (in German “beiden”).

Rieck believes Harris was planned from the beginning, but the time to present or place her as the stronger candidate was only now. He considers Trump’s position to be weakened after the “assassination”, in contrast to most commentators on the right side of the spectrum.

It’s sort of amusing that the “Biden corpse” is replaced by a cackling Brahmin neoconservative Zionist cortesan. Who rose to the top by being Willie Brown’s mistress, the former Mayor of San Francisco and the lover of celebrity Montel Williams.

As District Attorney of San Francisco and Attorney General of California Kamala used her position to indict Blacks on drug charges, while ensuring their sentences were protracted in order to ensure cheap slave labor for the state. After all, Harris always considered herself more Indian than Black.

And now she’s become a full-fledged Zionist, after receiving funds from AIPAC, not to mention her 2014 marriage to a Zionist Jew.

In any event, the “Uniparty” better known as the corrupt political duopoly has not disappointed the electorate (😁) by offering the Orange Idiot has the opposition candidate.

The Orangeman’s billion dollar backers are Silicon Valley techno/fascists who have public/private contracts with intelligence agencies and the DOD. Not to mention, wealthy Zionists backers like Miriam Adelson.

So pick your poison, or do the smart thing and stay home.

Biden just phoned in to Kamala’s campaign speech at campaign headquarters in Delaware. He is fine, more than fine. It is starting to feel like a set-up, because Kamala took off her mask, the mask of a giggling idiot, and became the raging revolutionary. She intends to prosecute Trump in public. It was probably the most frightening campaign speech I have ever witnessed. She has been hiding who she is, biding her time, til this moment.

A general comment to the RFK Jr naysayers. I could be wrong about him but I don’t think he is a swamp creature and is playing it safe before the election.

Let’s just specualte a bit. Does there not seem to be a wall-to-wall MSM (and alt-media) smear campaign against him including where they twist his words, omit important things he has said (as well as a downplaying of his popularity)? He is not perfect, far from it but I don’t think he is the swamp creature so many on OffG say he is (like Trump/Biden/Kamala/Putin/Zelensky/Starmer/Johnson et al are). He did push the climate Emergency stuff when he was younger but he has walked-it back recently (since the plandemic opened his eyes) and said he now thinks it is more about control rather than genuine environmental concern. A recent tweet I have found of his: 

Robert F. Kennedy Jr@RobertKennedyJr
Jun 16

President Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act will drive billions of dollars into hair-brained carbon reduction projects like offshore wind, which produces energy at five times the cost of onshore wind and does enormous harm to dolphins and whales.

Carbon fundamentalism, which values the reduction of carbon above all else, overlooks the reasons most people want to protect the environment in the first place, such as saving rare species and habitats. As I told @MeatEaterTV host @StevenRinella, this may constitute the biggest mistake the environmental movement has ever made.

I think RFK Jr suports independent, decentralised crypto-currencies as ONE option of many but he is definitely not supportive of a cashless society/completely digital financial system.

Does he go along with the zionist rhetoric because of blackmail or he has signed particular law-binding agreements etc? As I mentioned in my other comment: he must have read Laurent Guyénot’s work and Michael Collins Piper’s book on his uncle’s assassination (how Israel were deeply involved) so his stance on Palestine seems almost implausible to me – he must be playing a deeper game so as to not get into any danger?  

He is not in favour of a digital gulag – he wants to use their own blockchain tool against them (not tether the public to it) by putting the U.S. budget on it for transparency and accountability reasons: “I’m going to put the entire U.S. budget on blockchain so that any American — every American can look at every budget item in the entire budget anytime they want 24 hours a day,”

RFK Jr is against the CBDC roll-out: ” Kennedy has also publicly opposed plans for a central bank digital currency (CBDC), which the Federal Reserve is currently ‘exploring‘ ”

Also, I think RFK Jr suports independent, decentralised crypto-currencies as ONE option of many but he is definitely not supportive of a cashless society/completely digital financial system.

Basically, I think he could very well be playing a very deep game (unlike Trump and Putin who genuinely are lackeys of Israel) and wants to keep himself safe before the election to give himsef a chance of running for office. Like I said, he is a Kennedy (a major enemy of Israel) so someone with his background obviously needs to be vigilant because he is completely surrounded by swamp creatures, but it doesn’t necessarily mean he is a swamp creature himself?

I agree about the “game” he might be playing vis a vis his stance on Palestine. I have thought that he must have been visited by the men in black. There is no other way to explain it.
However, I cannot abide another game. His campaign became politics as usual for me. So I no longer support it. Or any of them.
What happens if he is elected President? He all of a sudden stops playing the game?
He and his family will be any safer?
I would think that once in office he is more threatened and would need to continue the game.
I am sick of it all.
One wonders if most Americans don’t look at what our country has become and just shudder at the tragedy.

The game was changed completely when Trump nominated JD Vance as his VP pick. Vance effectively made Trump irrelevant, he’s just a showman who knows how to work a crowd who’s sole job is to achieve power. That power is to be wielded by those who have both the knowledge and resources to use it, the ones with the connections inside the machinery of state. Trump as President will be trapped in a gilded cage, someone to be wheeled out at ceremonies, flattered as necessary but otherwise so easily ‘guided’ (i.e. controlled) that he would be the true puppet. (No amateurs this time around!)

Biden dropping out may be a political masterstroke. We’re so used to Presidential campaigns starting shortly after inauguration that we forget that campaigns should kick off after the nominating convention. Since Biden/Harris are the presumptive nominees all the GoP campaign efforts have been focused entirely on them (and particularly Biden), turning the entire Republican Convention into one long campaign rally. But they aren’t the nominees yet, they won’t be until after the DNC, so a whole lot of effort has gone into punching fog.

Now the Gamesmanship begins. The GOP’s lawyers will make all sorts of arguments before all sorts of courts explaining why the DNC has to stick with Biden/Harris. All very tedious; I’d really like someone, somewhere, to consider what’s best for the American people for once.

I also get the strong impression that the ‘attack’ on Trump was to help hem re-elected. What a bad show is going on in the US and the rest of the world.
Trump and all other leaders that are selected in the world have one big thing in common: they love Israel. And I think that is a bad evolution and means that we could be in war pretty soon.
It is like all the ‘right’ people are choisen to do the bid of the unelected superrich elite who put them there. Like Ursula VDL who is selected to be the head of the EU. Convicted for not releasing the Pfizer contract and the next day selected as head of the EU. She should be in jail instead she is rewarded…..

We live in strange times: there is the people who are awake and know something very bad is coming our way but we don’t exactly know what it will be.
But the sheeple don’t think anything bad is going on, they live their lives with no care in the world and they believe thing they hear on the news.
How are we going to get out of this mess???

I think we need the truth to come out on everything! Why does it have to take decades for the truth to be unleashed????

So you are saying that the elite’s plan was to kill Trump in front of the whole world, make him a martyr, rile up the republicans in the country to vote for a republican, draw suspicion to Biden and his administration, draw attention to the incompetence of the secret service, increase the number of people who believe in conspiracy theories, etc? Sounds like the elites are very intelligent.

It’s like a switch was flipped a few weeks marked “Trump wins” (the very slight possibility of an even more outrageous steal than last time in an attempt to provoke a real MAGA insurrection excepted). Biden didn’t change, all that changed was the corporate media stopped covering for him. Now all Trump needs to do is defat the diversity hire.

So the big question becomes: why? There’s something(s) big in the pipeline soon and Trump is earmarked either to sell the desired response better or be the fall-guy to take the blame for it (or both). This was clearly planned back in 2020 as evidenced by the way the corporate media kept the Trump story going when they could have easily dismissed him as yesterday’s news and started ignoring him.

Trump is committed to ending the war in Ukraine quickly and there have been signs of prepping for winding that down. BlackRock will soon be able to start that rebuild of Ukraine as the build ‘smart’ nation. War in the Middle East, however, looks potentially what this has all been building up to… with war in the South China Sea and/or another pandemic also distinct possibilities.

One thing this plays into is increased defense spending by European nations using the “we can’t trust Trump” argument. Preliminary moves in this direction have been in evidence for several weeks now.

There was no steal, it was a money grab (donate to legal fee’s) fake hype to pretend the selection is real and ‘Donald warpspeed’ is feared by the deep-state and to give the believers a 2nd coming of hopium through ‘Donald warpspeed’ after covid.

There is little more to rob from Ukraine, except for the nuke plants. There is little prospect of more sales of dud armaments on the black market. So, it is now reconstruction time, through usurious debt supported by IMF/WB. Remember the wonders that long-term reconstruction brought to Afghanistan.

Last week? Kidding me? These scripts are at least a few years old already! You think they didn’t know the walking corpse would be taken out at some point before the nomination? They’ve been propping up Orange Jesus for his second term for at least 18 months. The only thing is, they didn’t want the Democrats to burn down all majeur urban areas when their candidate decomposes on election day, so they first anointed Trump through martyrdom and resurrected him in Butler for his ‘second coming.’ That was enough for the corpse and his constituencies to give up. The interesting stuff will all take place after the coronation with Vance in the wing, the Wicked Witch in the aisle and the Winkies all turning into stone.

The question is…why?

Assuming Kamala will be the final candidate and there will not be a switch-a-roo ahead of the (s)election, then I think, it serves two purposes:

  • She is just about an acceptable candidate, yet, one that is sufficiently useless such that when she loses to the better candidate (Trump) it would appear genuine and will not require any vote rigging. It will actually be, the will of the people. She can at least walk and talk, ie. is compos mentis, so that is enough to fulfill the basics as an ‘opposition’ candidate.
  • To have continued with Uncle Joe was an embarrassment. One that was waking too many people up, due to his bumbling and stumbling. It would eventually become too obvious that he was not running anything, which would call into question the whole pantomime.

For the time being, maintaining the illusion of choice and a belief in the political system is key to keeping the human livestock on the farm. Manufacturing consent, for whatever is planned in the future, seems to be part of the game.

“For generations, we’d all been educated to worship at the altar of private capital’s unrestrained pursuit of profit for the greatest benefit of its shareholders, as Milton Friedman argued in his 1970 essay entitled “The Social Responsibility of Business is to Increase its Profits” (PDF). No other considerations can shape the development of production and distribution of goods and services in our economies, else someone will shriek, SOCIALISM! Worse, we’ve even allowed ourselves to become convinced that individuals’ unrestrained pursuit of their own interests can somehow automagically lead to the best possible outcome for the whole society.

As it turns out, those ideas were the owner class’s self-serving delusions that incubated the fatal flaw within their system, rendering it fragile and weak. The flaw has festered as an undiagnosed malignancy because it enabled the interests who own our Military Industrial Complex and other key industries (the big banks, big tech, big ag, and big pharma) to become extremely wealthy. They also became deeply entrenched in society’s power networks. As such they’ve grown and wholly resistant to any curtailment of their extraordinary privileges, even when it becomes clear that they are driving their nations to destruction.

That gang is now discredited. And yet they remain in control. That is the essential problem we face today. It is a problem that vexes all the lower orders of society all across the world as they work to find ways peacefully to unseat the elites from their ill-used power. In this struggle, it is not Daniel Bell who is our prophet but C. Wright Mills and Murray Rothbard, who despite their divergent ideological perspectives agreed on one thing: it is unjust and unworkable that a small elite should rule the world without the consent of the governed.

The powers that be couldn’t care two hoots who the POTUS and VP are, what they care about is that they are controlled by the PTB.

So if the PTB have got a Trump + Vance ticket doing EXACTLY what they want, they would clearly engineer a useless Democrat farce three months before polling day to create unstoppable momentum for their chosen candidate.

We all saw the farce in the UK, where the chosen candidate Starmer was anointed with barely one third of the votes cast and barely one fifth of those eligible to vote.

It’s safe to say that democracy no longer exists in the UK-US axis of the West and so any MSM outlet that claims it does is merely printing lying propaganda. Of course, lying in print is not a criminal offence, since all sane adults should not trust any MSM organ to tell them the truth.

What IS, however, going to happen sooner or later is the break up of both the EU and the USA, along with the no-longer-serving-any-purpose NATO. The US MIC is going to be exposed for the criminal racket that it is and the whole of capitol hill is going to be exposed with it. AIPAC is going to be exposed for the mafia extortion racket that it is and the calls for it to be banned will become inexorable. Along with all the other Jewish racist lobby groups…..

The test of the BRICS nations will be whether they use those breakdowns to try and seize power or whether they really do believe in multipolarity, the right to sovereign nation state status etc etc.

The biggest single question is going to be what is going to happen to all these Zionists if a unitary Palestinian state is founded. The Zionists won’t accept that for a start, so lots of them will leave Israel to find a new ‘apartheid state’ geography. Will they try for Khazaria? Will they try for Argentina? Will they try and create a secessionist Zionist sate in part of the Lower 48?

Who knows what they will do, but no-one should ever view them in a positive light again. They are racists, they are master race racists to boot and they have been prepared to completely subvert multiple nations to promote their genocidal creed.

This is the first I’ve heard about turnout being only 52%. Yet I thought I followed current affairs closely.

If at least 10% of adults aren’t on the electoral register – there are many reasons why some people try to stay off it – then only about 18% of adults support Starmer. This assumes a turnover of 60%.

If we now discover that turnover is not 60%, but 52%, it implies that only 16% support him. He must be the most popular PM in history [sarc.]

I replied to MayHem about that, I’ll reproduce it here:

The only thing I have seen RFK Jr say about blockchain is the following (where he is plans to turn tptb’s tool on themselves i.e. use blockchain as a transparency tool which will help to put them to account):

“I’m going to put the entire U.S. budget on blockchain so that any American — every American can look at every budget item in the entire budget anytime they want 24 hours a day,”

And that RFK Jr is against the CBDC roll-out:

” Kennedy has also publicly opposed plans for a central bank digital currency (CBDC), which the Federal Reserve is currently ‘exploring‘ ”

I think RFK Jr suports independent, decentralised crypto-currencies as ONE option of many but he is definitely not supportive of a cashless society/completely digital financial system.

P.S. Like I said above in another comment:

I’ve just seen that RFK Jr has come out a few hours ago saying he would like a ‘direct democracy’ system using AI/blockchain – now I think that would be a VERY bad idea indeed. People will remember how the Dominion digital vote-counting machines were/are corrupt – the main cause of voting fraud (along with paper ballots) so imagine how fraudulant you could make a digital direct democracy system? I would definitely discourage this idea!

Well, if you have followed my comments on platforms including OffG (which I doubt very much, why would you) you will see I admit I do not know much about crypto but always say my instincts and intuition tell me it could well be a trojan horse. I also repeatedly say that anything tied to the electric/smart grid (the backbone of UN Agenda 21/2030 and 4IR etc) is going to be bad (for obvious reasons including blackouts/outages and the tracking by the extensive global surveillance system, etc).

I do allow for the fact that others (including RFK Jr) may know a hell of a lot more than me about this subject – maybe there are ways decentralised, open-source crypto can be controlled by the public without manipulation from bad actors, for instance?

Yes, even supporters of RFK Jr found his words re: Palestine very strange as he is supposed to be against war of any knid. Some people speculate that RFK Jr is (unlike Putin or Trump) ACTUALLY playing a deep game, 4D chess, as it were.

I don’t know myself, my thoughts are that he must have read Laurent Guyénot and Michael Collins Piper’s book on his uncle’s assassination (how Israel were deeply involved) so his stance on Palestine seems almost implausible so there could be a deeper, h idden reason – is he being blackmailed?

Anyway, just some speculations… It is very difficult to be truthful about things concerning Israel for a normal person in the public sphere let alone someone who wants to run for office and even worse for a Kennedy with the background that goes with it, to say the least!

All out supporter of 4IR, AI-managed Blockchain, his running mate Shanahan is a pioneer in that, divorced wife of Google founder Sergey Brin, who funds her organizations.

Virus pusher against clotshots, pushes the bio-weapon leak disinformation narrative and “alternative treatments” for a “Pandemic” which never happened resulting from “COVID-19” which is fiction, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 “virus” which has never been proven to exist.

Some people say he like Shanahan for the dollars she brings in and that she may have a vendetta against the AI/4IR people since her divorce? It’s obviously not good if Kennedy is truly a supporter of all the AI/blockchain etc stuff – do you have a link showing evidence of him saying this?

Do you think it is true what some people suggest – that RFK Jr may be pretending to go along with some of the main tptb stuff before the elction just to keep himself safe – is he playng a deep game?

Yes, when I look much closer at him, he doesn’t look very good. I hoped he would have been wiser and informed people about the terrain theory vs germ theory aspect of the plandemic (as it can blow all the nonsense out of the water at the basic level), but he didn’t mention it so it is very disappointing.

I suppose because the other options are so extremely bad (Trump, and Kamala and God forbid Hilary Clinton as some are suggesting!!) I thought the lesser bad option would be RFK Jr but there really ARE too many red flags to be seen around him. Still, if I had a gun to my head and had to choose, I would reluctantly choose RFK Jr as the president.

Here is a tweet I have just found (but I’m sure there were tweets as well as comments he said in an interview):

Robert F. Kennedy Jr@RobertKennedyJr
Jun 16

President Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act will drive billions of dollars into hair-brained carbon reduction projects like offshore wind, which produces energy at five times the cost of onshore wind and does enormous harm to dolphins and whales.

Carbon fundamentalism, which values the reduction of carbon above all else, overlooks the reasons most people want to protect the environment in the first place, such as saving rare species and habitats. As I told @MeatEaterTV host @StevenRinella, this may constitute the biggest mistake the environmental movement has ever made.

I think RFK Jr suports independent, decentralised crypto-currencies as ONE option of many but he is definitely not supportive of a cashless society/completely digital financial system.

“Como dos gotas de agua”?

[Fun Fact: I met Kelley Slater’s brother Sean 15 years ago, at the opening of the Surf Museum in San Clemente, and not having any idea who he was, I regaled him with a long story that my mother had told me a few years before. I was taking her out at nights for walks in the dark at Leisure World, and told her I’d just seen a new huge statue of a young Duke Kahanamoku, next to the HB Pier.(It was Duke who introduced the world to surfing, after his Olympics gold medal swims about a century ago.

She mumbled, “I knew a Kahanamoku when I was a little girl.” She tells me an untold story of Hollywood 1920s, and an athletic 30 something male who used to come by next door Saturday nights and sing duets with her neighbour Clarence Trano. “Mom” I sez, “you told me a hundred stories about Pearl and her dad, but never this! Are you sure that’s the name?
What instrument did he play?!”

She paused in the dark park, a senior moment? (89yo?)

“Let me think. it was a strange instrument” I was squirming, “what was it?” She stared at the ground,

“Oh, I remember now, it was a ukulele!”

The Duke was hanging out next door, in 1920s Hollywood, Silverlake, trying to score a film contract. Also, a recording contract, which he in fact later did.

I told that story to three surf wear moguls, all very young CEOs from Down Under, who had told me that I didn’t need to brief them on the Duke Statue at ground zero Huntington Beach, since they had hosted and sponsored the big event and its unveiling.

But when I told them the next day my mother’s late night memoir of the young Duke, they stood speechless in awe, humbled by History [in the lobby of Billabong USA HQ, no less, where I was doing front desk security, by way of some rare serendipity].

Telling the tall tale to the tall fellow at the Surf Museum Grand Opening, it had a different effect. We were standing next to a wall length blowup photo of Duke Kahanamoku and his massive long board, his ancient Hawaiian “glass barge” (I rode one when we lived on Kauai ’67, and nearly got knocked dead, hit in the head when it “pearled”) since I thought he might savour that connection of folk whimsy, to the founding god of surfing. All said, he listened long, thanked me formally but a bit briskly, I though, wandering away. A bit disgusted?

It give me an odd take, after the long drive home to Newport (where Duke had once reigned as King of all waves) I burst into my studio and flipped open my laptop for a search of Kelly Slater, who I had never seen close up, at all (I body surf a lot since 6, but don’t follow the main sport, to avoid being overtaken and hooked by the whole global cult here, probably a good “career” move).

Wikipedia posts a photo of Kelly Slater, one that could have been of his brother Sean, who had just heard my yarn earlier that night. Kelly is a half foot shorter than Sean, and at 5’9″ the most decorated surfer, by far, in all the sport’s history. Crowned world surf champion 12 times, both as the youngest, and also later as the oldest, to win. A record most probably unbreakable.

And I didn’t recognize him, even though his brother Sean is a lookalike, the two as “como dos gotos de agua”.

Ergo, his odd response, and my burgeoning hunch. Hilarious and incredible.

Kamala could almost be a younger Hillary, not switched at birth twins, but like some long lost “brother by another mother” or as twisted sisters.

OK, I like many of her policy stances more than the orange variety, for real, but we’ve seen so many of them from both parties favoring the 4th Reich, now, as the party lines become surreally blurred, that she seems more and more like Hillary 2.0,

I started getting the shivers the day I first saw her perched in Congress behind the Senate votes, 4 years back, or walking those halls, always behind black mask($). An indelible image.

So Hillaryesque, all in all, eh?

Bound to creep you, one & all. Very darkly done and quite indelible.

His slaughtered bride Sharon had suggested he do a Shakespeare film, shortly before her murder, and in co~writing it with the impressive Shakespeare scholar Kenneth Tynan, little did she suspect, we expect, that the film they made laid bare the same archetypal power structure that culminated in her death (and son Paul, in embryo).

But come convention time, I think they might come to grips with the same thing they came to grips with on Biden, Harris can’t beat Trump. Many are calling to ditch her now. If the dem party really wants to win the presidency, and probably keep a majority in the house, they won’t nominate her at the convention. Then again, maybe they’re delusional enough to believe a black woman, albeit a strange, very limited black woman, could take down the white supremacist and his MAGA cult in this woke culture they’ve helped to create. If you’ve seen the inner workings of the fed government in D.C., and the percentage of black women in high level positions, you would know what I mean. I think it’s just going to make the cult bigger and stronger. Either way, the zionists should be happy. Trump has made that very clear.

Most likely men that communicate on Full Moon.
Open jaw, see vision.
That is what they cannot do.
Create.

If I’d known that this was a poetry slam, I would’ve brought my absinthe and black turtle-neck.

I would have brought opium, and a jewel-encrusted tortoise.

Kamala Harris. Even in the not so long ago days of 2013, when she was our incoming Attorney General, known here then, in Southern California at least, to most, as “Kamala WHO?” I sensed, somehow, someone bent out on a meteoric rise to the very top, of the world (if any sane person is still inclined to call it that, after Biden & Trump).

Kamala Harris, to whom I wrote an impassioned (hard copy, rarity!) letter ten years ago when she was in her first months as our California AG, a virtual unknown, statewide, and had crushed all of Sirhan’s long hopes of a new trial, with the SOP “State” response, “has never shown remorse for the gravity of his crime.” Etc blah blah

Total bollocks.

Well, that’s a bridge too far for her or Newsom (vetoed parole in 22) or anyone else with eyes on “higher office”.

I saw then that she already had her “eyes on the prize.”

Oval Office and all that that “suggests”…

~~~

They transferred Sirhan down our way right about then, 11.22.23

The Golden Anniversary of JFK !

That defies chance, bigly, yet the CA Prisons spokesman, Luis Patino, called the date “just an unfortunate coincidence….” The exact 50th Anniversary of the murder of RFK’s brother, President Jack!

Aware that she had recently arrived in office and was privy to all that, there were some who were telling me she had cut a deal of some kind with the powers that be. Quid pro quo? Hmmm. I bumped her to the top of my list of the Usual Suspects, always longer.

You never know, but here she is, a mere ten years or so later, as the presumptive candidate to lead USA Inc. and NATO and all the rest that all of that implies.

Why are we not surprised?

Having followed (some of) her career since 2012, I know I’m not!
