CIA Director Mike Pompeo made a top-secret visit to North Korea over Easter weekend as an envoy for President Trump to meet with that country’s leader, Kim Jong Un, according to two people with direct knowledge of the trip.
The extraordinary meeting between one of Trump’s most trusted emissaries and the authoritarian head of a rogue state was part of an effort to lay the groundwork for direct talks between Trump and Kim about North Korea’s nuclear weapons program, according to the two people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the highly classified nature of the talks.

“Speaking at his Mar-a-Lago resort on Tuesday, Trump appeared to allude to the extraordinary face-to-face meeting between Kim and Pompeo when he said the United States has had direct talks with North Korea “at very high levels.” The president didn’t elaborate.
Trump said that he would sit down with Kim probably in early June, if not sooner.”
Fire them. Make a public example of leakers.
Will we ever see somebody in our country prosecuted for treason???
These constant anonymous sources are literally putting our nation’s security at risk, divulging sensitive classified negotiations. They jeopardize the chances of success by sacrificing all good faith and trust involved in critical talks with foreign officials.
TRUST KANSAS!
Q
There are leaks and then there are leaks.
There is Twitter chatter that an official end to the Korean War will be announced as soon as next week by Trump as well as North and South Korea. This would be a “shock” announcement.

Not as long as we have an Attorney General who has no idea or no desire to do his job.
The Norks and South Korea are talking about ending the six decade Korean War.
The left will be having apoplectic fits in the role the President is playing in this.
When it happens, Hussein should send him his unearned Nobel Peace Prize.
OMG! COLLUSION!
That’s exactly what I was thinking! Hussein brought no new peace into the world.
He brought us Isis, the Syrian Civil War, and racial unrest in USA. What a slam it will be on the left if name-calling Trump is the one that brings peace to the world.
This would be Trump’s Reagan wall moment.
Some interesting stuff happening here. Let’s see how it develop. I just hope all this is not a ploy to get the US to withdraw troops and then NK takes over SK.
If Trump pulls this off, it'll be headliner historic. Remember the left was heehawing and screaming about about Trump getting us all nuked last summer when NK was launching missiles over the Sea of Japan. Now this....☺
Pay no attention to those barking on the sidelines, posters who sound like their broadcasting from CNN...We're still surrounded by traitors and political posers..
We still have them in Japan and Germany 70 years later.
if trump were to win the liberal peace prize, there would be 60 million heart attacks in the US alone.

Yeah, yeah, okay, so we may see a denuclearized North Korea, an official end to the Korean War after more than six decades, and new era of peace in that part of the world. The big questions is: What did Stormy Daniels say today?
