North Korea has released the three Americans detained in the country’s labour camps in a display of goodwill ahead of the looming summit between its Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un and US President Donald Trump, campaigners said.
The three Korean-American detainees — Kim Dong-cheol, Kim Sang-deok and Kim Hak-seong — were released from the labour correction centre in early April and are getting health treatment and ideological education at a hotel near Pyongyang, according to Choi Sung-ryong, the country’s most vocal campaigner for South Korean abductees held in North Korea.
“We heard it through our sources in North Korea late last month. We believe that Mr Trump can take them back on the day of the US-North Korea summit or he can send an envoy to take them back to the US before the summit,” said Mr Choi.
I know so many of you are stuck in 2016, but the real world keeps moving forward. This is a good thing by everybody's standards.

Great news.
It could be a historical breakthrough. Trump is going to get the Nobel prize if this goes through.
But you have to realize that the Rudy Giuliani issue is going to overshadow even this historical event of global impact.
I have to wonder why you aren't addressing the Giuliani disaster. It could be the final nail in the Trump administration coffin.
Roger you're free to put up your own post if you think it's important enough.
Yes, it is a good thing.
The drumbeat for the Peace Prize is a little premature. You have to have peace first.
I will not post on the other side unless the picture of rrb's face on the top of the group site.
As I said

Start your own blog chicken shit.
I put up a Rudy post just now.
NOBEL PEACE PRIZE ACCEPTANCE SPEECH OF PRESIDENT TRUMP
OSLO, DEC. 10, 2018
Your Majesties, Your Royal Highnesses, distinguished members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee:
I have received a lot of honors — like, a lot. I was on the cover of Time more than anybody else. I went to the best schools. I was elected president on my first try. It was the biggest electoral college landslide since Reagan. But people tell me this is a big honor — the biggest, maybe. And I think this is very good for you, because your ratings are going through the roof right now. This crowd is much bigger than Obama’s was.
People don’t know this, but some other top guys like Nelson Mandela have won this award before. He’s done an amazing job and is being recognized more and more, even though South Africa is a crime-ridden shithole of a country that is just waiting to explode — not a good situation for the people! Anyway, with me, you’re breaking all the records. You’re welcome.
I love Norwegians! I want more immigrants from Norway and others who have the same merit-based complexion that Norwegians have. Why are we having all these people from shithole countries? Why do we need more Haitians? Take them out. They all have AIDS.
I thought I was going get this peace prize when I told your prime minister in January that I was sending Norway some F-52 fighter jets. People laughed and said the F-52 only exists in the video game “Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.” But they aren’t laughing anymore, because we also sent Norway barrels full of Xbox Ones.
You’re going to need those F-52s because there are a lot of bad hombres in Europe. You look at what’s happening last night in Sweden. Sweden, who would believe this? They’re having problems like they never thought possible. Germany is a total mess. Brussels is a hellhole (although, I admit, Belgium is a beautiful city). Have you seen the videos of destructive radical Islamic terrorism in Britain? Paris is no longer Paris.
The haters and the liars say I don’t deserve this award. They make up fake news about how I invented the country of Nambia, shoved the prime minister of Montenegro, thought the prime minister of Singapore was from Indonesia, mistook New Zealand’s prime minister for Justin Trudeau’s wife, called Israel’s Holocaust memorial “so amazing,” admired Brigitte Macron’s body, rewrote the history of Napoleon’s Russia invasion, substituted a porn actress’s name for the British prime minister’s, mixed up the names for China and Taiwan, and had missile talks while guests at Mar-a-Lago listened.
Wrong!
I was, like, really smart, when I made peace with Rocket Man. By calling him short and fat and saying I would totally destroy him with fire and fury from my big and powerful nuclear button, I got him to negotiate. He still hasn’t given up his nuclear weapons, but he has agreed to stop calling me a dotard. In exchange I have agreed not to attack him, and I have given California to North Korea.
I am bringing peace to the rest of the world, too — peace from terrible, horrible and disgusting deals like the Paris accord and the Trans-Pacific Partnership. The world’s shipping lanes are now more peaceful and quiet. Trade wars are good, and easy to win! I might give people peace from other stupid deals: the insane Iran nuclear deal, the terrible Cuba exchange deal, the worst ever Australia refugee deal, bad-joke NAFTA and obsolete NATO. We have also made air travel more peaceful by making sure people from Syria, Iran, Libya, Somalia and Yemen don’t visit America.
On my way to the Nobel Prize, I knocked the hell out of the Islamic State, sent nice, new, smart missiles into Syria and dropped the Mother of All Bombs on Afghanistan. But those are only a tiny, tiny fraction of the countries I could have bombed.
I did not bomb Mexico even though they’re murderers and rapists. I did not bomb Canada, even though they are disgraceful about trade. I didn’t bomb Pakistan, even though they have given us nothing but lies and deceit. I didn’t bomb China, even though they are raping our country. And I have strongly supported the leaders of Turkey, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the Philippines and Russia, as they promote peace by silencing noisy dissidents.
Your Majesties and Highnesses, people who worked for me once said “do not congratulate!” — but I fired most of them. So come on, get up and applaud. You are so lucky that I gave you that privilege.
must be real disappointing to be such a shitty "pastor"
ROFLMFAO !!!

Countless leaks from high-level government officials over 16 months claimed evidence of repeated contacts between Manafort and Russian officials. But Special Counsel now tells Manafort there isn't any such evidence, his attorneys report in new filing.

Government officials leaked to reporters that the feds had transcripts of calls between Manafort and Russian officials. New legal filings claim, however, that Mueller admitted to having no evidence of those alleged conversations.

A wise man once wrote:
Not just interesting, but astonishing. It requires deliberate self-deception beyond even unreasonable denial. I have a theory on why people are willing to compromise themselves to that extent against Trump ... I think that once they've nurtured the tribal politics to full bloom, previously an undercurrent of liberal Democratic politics, it now takes psychological precedence over other principles. Yet they cannot admit that (just watch the responses to this theory), and therefore the cognitive dissonance compels them to must accept logical impossibilities by thrusting the contradictions downstream. Proclaim that betrayal of the American public with lies is trivial for instance, even when they would never really believe that, because the alternative is an even greater compromise to their self-perception.
"must be real disappointing to be such a shitty "pastor""
Everyone's used to it.
It's why he's just a substitute.
US aircraft targeted by a Chinese laser weapon in Djibouti, resulting in injuries to the pilots.
The US responded with a "diplomatic complaint". My question is, why are our military not authorized to return fire? Wasn't Trump supposed to stop allowing other countries to continue bullying our military forces?
Weak responses like this only encourage it.
