BREAKING: American Hostages Held in North Korea are Officially on Their Way Home

Three American hostages held by the North Korean regime have been released by Dictator Kim Jong Un and are on their way home. 

President Trump made the announcement Wednesday morning and said Kim Hak-song Kim Dong Chul and Kim Sang Duk are in good health. 

I am pleased to inform you that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is in the air and on his way back from North Korea with the 3 wonderful gentlemen that everyone is looking so forward to meeting. They seem to be in good health. Also, good meeting with Kim Jong Un. Date & Place set.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 9, 2018

Secretary Pompeo and his “guests” will be landing at Andrews Air Force Base at 2:00 A.M. in the morning. I will be there to greet them. Very exciting!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 9, 2018

The president hinted last week their release was imminent and newly minted White House attorney Rudy Guiliani said the same during an interview with Fox and Friends. 

As everybody is aware, the past Administration has long been asking for three hostages to be released from a North Korean Labor camp, but to no avail. Stay tuned!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 3, 2018

On Tuesday and shortly after making the announcement the U.S. is leaving the Iran nuclear agreement, President Trump revealed Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was on his way to North Korea.

"...landing at Andrews A.F.B. at 2:00 am..."


That will be a remarkable homecoming!
That is footage that I will wish to view live on television.

During Kim's visit to ChiComms: "Message from President Trump: 'Those American hostages you're holding had better be in good health'."

Are you old enough to remember the Iranian hostage release? I stood in front of a university student union TV (no CNN then!) and proudly watched split screen with coverage of new President Reagan and American hostages being released at the same time. Wow.

And President Trump didn't have to trade five Taliban commanders for a deserter like obama did in 2014...What kind of deal is that...It's almost like President Trump made this deal from a position of strength or something and not kowtowing on a bended knee or taking it up the pooper like obama did...It's SOOOOOO nice having an American President in charge again.

President Trump Wins Again!!! Making America Safer and Great Again!!!

You are likely a coffee drinker, so you can enjoy MAGA with your first cup.
