Speculation has been raging from Washington DC to Vietnam as President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong un prepare for their second summit. Some believe this will result in the end to the Korean War; technically, it’s only been in a status of ceasefire for half a century. Others are more measured in their expectations.
Most in the administration hope they’ll get more accomplished this time than at the last summit.
The White House laid out their “four pillars” for the meeting, things they hope can be accomplished in the three days spent on them.
- Establishment of new relations
- A lasting and stable peace
- Complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula
- Recovering POW/MIA remains
My Take
Considering how this relationship started, with junior high insults hurled by each world leader via Twitter, it’s amazing that we’re not at war, let alone on the brink of a second summit between them.
If the President can come out of this summit with a real win for America and the world, this will be a shining star for him to hang on his resume as he prepares for his 2020 reelection campaign.
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We just launched a GiveSendGo page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
