In January 1933, Siegel published a short story in his magazine titled "The Reign of the Superman". The titular character is a homeless man named Bill Dunn who is tricked by an evil scientist into consuming an experimental drug. The drug gives Dunn the powers of mind-reading, mind-control, and clairvoyance. He uses these powers maliciously for profit and amusement, but then the drug wears off, leaving him a powerless vagrant again. Shuster provided illustrations, depicting Dunn as a bald man.
Because clairvoyance is the ability to perceive things from a great distance. You're thinking premonition, which allows you to perceive events in the future.

Nope. No politics here.
if he had clairvoyance how did he not know the drug would wear off?
