Nobel Peace Prize On Hold

Its a no go on the NoKo summit. I presume this is posturing subject to possible revision.

I don’t read the cancellation of the NK summit as the end of talks. It’s really part of the ongoing talks. It’s about maneuvering, lack of predictability and leverage. Considering how often NK has played us in the past, I welcome this development.

By the way, Trump cancelling the summit with Kim Jong-un also shows the respect he has for Pence and the rest of his national security team. It highlights and underlines that Trump will not follow the Obama and Kerry Iran deal model of peace at any price.

Ted Lieu Retweeted The Hill

The cancellation by @POTUS of the North Korea Summit with Kim Jong Un has just increased the chances of war. The timing is particularly odd given that North Korea allegedly just destroyed parts of a nuclear test site as a show of good faith.

I strongly urge Trump to reconsider.

============================================

The North Koreans are overplaying their hand. The Punggye-ri test site was likely rendered unusable by the last nuclear blast there in September 2017. @POTUS and @SecPompeo are in full control of this negotiation. #PeaceThroughStrength #ArtOfTheDeal

=========================================

As you can see, there is a LOT of varied opinion on this. I think Ari Flleischer and Scaramucci are closer to the truth.

I knew about the Clapper lie from 2013, but never bothered to watch him do it. Very interesting body language for a guy with an intelligence background. Then watching the video of him on the View doubling down on that lie among others, his body language was even worse. Shifty eyes never even focus while he's babbling and bobbing his head.

Our new ambassador to Korea is the recent CINCPAC, a Japanese American. Bolton, Kelly, Mattis, Pompeo; the North Koreans are looking at a team that is in it to win it, as they say.

In other news, the election of al-Sadr's bloc in Iraq may (or may not) be good news in checking Iranian hegemony. Apparently he is a nationalist, so the thinking goes that he will put Iraqi interests first. The other Shia coalition is much more closely identified with Iran.

Bibi was in Moscow again recently, so we will see what comes out of it all. There is a lot going on behind the curtain.

Ext "but never bothered to watch him do it. Very interesting body language for a guy with an intelligence background."

Ext, that is why I mentioned that very video as an iconic image of how we KNOW senior Obama officials were criminals and deserved jail. There is similar video of Koskinen.

Here are the details of that Judicial Watch related request for Strzok and Page to protect their personal device messages. Along with that...

On May 21, U.S. District Court Judge Reggie B. Walton ordered the FBI to begin processing 13,000 pages of previously undisclosed emails exchanged exclusively between FBI officials Strzok and Page between February 1, 2015, and December 2017. The first 500 pages of records are to be processed by June 29, 2018.

(1) the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”) shall process the 500 pages of potentially responsive records and produce any responsive, non-exempt records to the plaintiff on or before June 29, 2018;

(2) after June 29, 2018, the FBI, on a monthly basis, shall process 500 pages of potentially responsive records and produce any responsive, non-exempt records to the plaintiff; and

(3) on September 1, 2018, and thereafter on a quarterly basis (once every three months), on the first day of the month (or, if the first falls on a weekend or holiday, the next business day), the parties shall file a joint status report advising the Court of the FBI’s progress in processing the request.

North Korea Called Pence ‘Stupid,’ Bolton a ‘Racist’ Before Trump Canceled Kim Summit

A senior North Korean official referred to Vice President Mike Pence as “stupid and ignorant” Thursday morning and U.S. policy “unlawful and outrageous” shortly before President Donald Trump announced that he would no longer meet with communist dictator Kim Jong-un on June 12.

“Whether the U.S. will meet us at a meeting room or encounter us at nuclear-to-nuclear showdown is entirely dependent upon the decision and behavior of the United States,” Vice Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui said in remarks published by North Korean state media Thursday. “In case the U.S. offends against our goodwill and clings to unlawful and outrageous acts, I will put forward a suggestion to our supreme leadership for reconsidering the DPRK-U.S. summit.”

Choe never got the opportunity to suggest reconsideration of the summit, as President Trump published a letter from the White House shortly after her remarks canceling the summit.

[Miss Marple the Deplorable]
