Feeling so safe now that the threat of nuclear war is over...I've been hiding under my desk since 1962
I can now turn my attention to the real national threat...Hill's emails and my neighbor's brown skinned gardener (I know he's up to something...the damn plants grow so big)

Trump had an idea about how to counter the nuclear threat posed by North Korea, which he got after speaking to Russian President Vladimir Putin: If the U.S. stopped joint military exercises with the South Koreans, it could help moderate Kim Jong Un’s behavior.
"Russia should be in this meeting," Trump told reporters upon leaving the White House for the summit, which is being held in Charlevoix, Canada. "They should let Russia come back in, because we should have Russia at the negotiating table."
I go back and forth on this question on a semi-regular basis. What is worse?

Trump claims that the parents of missing Korean War soldiers routinely asked him to bring their sons’ remains home. He fails to note that given the date of the end of the war, these parents would all be well over 100 years old. _________________ “We must always take sides.

off by two generations
The thing is, trump neither knows nor cares to look up (you know, three seconds to google) when the Korean War was, because those details have no meaning. His narrative is televised improvisational fiction. It sounded good to him, so he ran with it. And if you told him why it’s (bleep), he wouldn’t care, because his audience isn’t any more concerned with details than he is. As long as it feels good... _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” ― Elie Wiesel

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has said there will be no sanctions relief for North Korea while it maintains nuclear weapons, contradicting North Korean state media who said it could take place "as progress is made."

The White House – which has been having trouble filling positions as it bleeds staffers – is now trying to find recruits at a conservative job fair on the Hill.
“Interested in a job at the White House?” is the subject line of an email that was blasted out widely to Republicans on the Hill late Wednesday advertising the upcoming event.
It promises that “representatives from across the Trump administration will be there to meet job seekers of every experience level.” A person familiar with the planning said that Johnny DeStefano, who oversees the White House personnel department, and Sean Doocey, a deputy assistant to the president for presidential personnel, are expected to be on hand, among other officials from the West Wing.
The flyer lists positions open in the White House as well as a handful of government agencies including Defense, Interior, Commerce, Homeland Security, Health & Human Services, NASA, Energy, and Treasury.
The “Executive Branch Job Fair” is scheduled for Friday afternoon in the Dirksen Senate Office Building, according to a flyer attached to the email.
“There are positions currently open and we are looking for the most competent conservatives to recommend,” the flyer, shared with POLITICO, reads.

If they wear their white hoods they can go to the front of the line.
I still cannot understand US Political law and how Trump is still in the white house
Steele report could all be true but there are politicians covering for a traitor
Maybe they could advertise on Craigslist for the jobs fair
I say they advertise on al-jazera
