Basketball Hall-of-Famer Dennis Rodman will travel to North Korea for his first visit to the communist nation in more than three years, a senior Trump administration official confirmed to Fox News.
He is going as a private citizen, the official said. It's our understanding he hasn't landed yet.

I had this idea months ago. Send in Rodman.
Or maybe Dennis just a needs a vacay. Interestingly weird. Perhaps a dialog could be established.
Divert Rodman’s plane to Manila and let Duterte take care of this pot head. Rodman’s trip to North Korea is being funded by PotCoin.

I concur.......
Rodman is visiting as a private citizen personally known to Donald Trump. Rodman is a personal citizen also known to Kim.
Interesting
Agree with you
FRiends, I posit that Dennis is not going to NK in order to “break the ice and make headway”.
He goes there to have sex with underage girls, which are provided by the NK government.
I thought we discussed and resolved this the last time he went.
Fox News: Imprisoned student released by Norks.
But he engages in diplomacy during breaks.
“Fox News: Imprisoned student released by Norks.”
Talk about a tell- this isn’t a coincidence. The kid gets sprung as soon as Rodman touches down in the Nork paradise.
And Otto Warmbier just got released. You think thats a coincidence.
Nice job Mr. Rodman. You’re nuts, but nice job.
And you DO realize that Donald Trump and Dennis Rodman are friends, and that Mr. Rodman was on The Apprentice..... right? I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if the President is the one who sent Mr. Rodman to NK.
I doubt this supposed attempt at diplomacy by Rodman will have any effect, one way or the other.
A traitor? He got drunk and sh*t on the floor of Pyongyang's most luxurious hotel.
Every patriotic American should to that.
I certainly think its a good idea for the trip if Rodman is able to convince Kim to give up his nuclear weapons program and open up North Korea completely to an effective inspections program. If this fails then Rodman will just need to come home and it’ll be for Kim like early 2003 was for Saddam. Only this time we should let the South Korean army do almost all the boots-on-the-ground work. It’s their country, not ours.
I agree on the first part, and disagree on the second.
Involving South Korea would lead to the assumption that South Korea would then occupy and absorb North Korea. This would be objectionable with China.
The most important thing here is to achieve a non-nuclear North Korea. Unification is not the most desired objective.
“If he is broke, who is buying his tickets, etc.?”
Go to PotCoin.com (he was wearing their T-shirt at the airport) and find out.
You are so right. Rodman is a jerk, but he could be of some use here. I think Trump’s people talked to Rodman. Trump is really good at pulling a rabbit out of a hat with creative solutions to things. In this case, he’s pulling a black basketball player out of a hat.
Why else would Rodman be going there at this point in time?
I didn’t know he tried to rename himself like that. Geez.
Dah, geez!...Celebrity Rehab wasn’t good enough for him?
