North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un is reportedly in “grave danger” following surgery, CNN reported on Monday evening, citing an anonymous U.S. official with direct knowledge of the situation.
There have been rumors of the dictator’s declining health in recent days, after he reportedly missed the country’s most important political holiday last week — the birthday celebration of Kim Il-sung, Kim Jong-un’s grandfather and founder of the communist tyranny.
NBC’s Kathy Tur sparked further speculation after deleting a tweet citing two U.S. officials who purportedly claimed that the authoritarian is “brain dead.”
“North Korean leader Kim ing Un is brain dead, according to two US officials. He recently had cardiac surgery and slipped into a coma, according to one US current and one former US official,” she wrote in the now-deleted tweet:
She later added that she deleted the tweet “out of an abundance of caution.”
“Waiting on more info. Apologies,” she added:
I’ve deleted that last tweet out of an abundance of caution. Waiting on more info. Apologies.

South Korea is reportedly investigating the reports of the tyrant’s condition, but officials from South Korea’s Unification Ministry and National Intelligence Service have not been able to confirm the report, according to the AP.
Bloomberg News’s Jennifer Jacobs reported late Monday evening that the Trump administration “received information that Kim Jong Un had heart surgery last week and if he’s alive, his health is poor.”
“It’s unclear to US officials if he’s dead or alive,” she continued.
“Trump administration officials are looking into who would be in the line of succession if Kim Jong Un dies or is already dead, I’m told,” she added:

Report: Kim Jong-un In ‘Grave Danger’ Following Surgery
Probably could just stop at thew word Grave in a few weeks.
Grave danger as in going into a grave?
Shouldn’t that be glave dangah?
It might be time to evaluate his sister (Kim Yo-jong), who is probably next in line. She spent several years in Switzerland, and studied computer science. It would be unusual for a woman to climb into the supreme leader slot.
Buh-bye fatso.
I saw a pic of her in a military uniform. She is sMOKKIN’ hot.
Just the grave will do nicely. Forget the danger.
How can you tell?
Will President Trump go to his funeral or send the Vice President Pence or Secretary Pompeo? Depending on who replaces Little Rocket Man, maybe an opening to restart talks.
“North Korean leader Kim ing Un is brain dead, according to two US officials
How would anyone know the difference?
Considering that the news media was mentioning her a lot since about the 12th, suggests that NorK is signalling a change in leadership.
It's said if she speaks it would indicate his death..
The Gretchen Whitmer of the peninsula?
I saw a photo supposedly 6 days ago of her with dark glassed security guards surrounding her as Kim uses.
If Kims passed no doubt the annoucement will take place when they have all their ducks in a row.
Doubtful....not with Corona Virus on the world stage.
She’s probably killed more people than you see on an average day
Dictators who become seriously ill, even at a young age, rarely recover their full health and remain in power for long. Thus, even if Fat Boy Kim substantially recovers, the Kim regime will be seriously weakened by both succession uncertainty and the burdens of the coronavirus pandemic and recession. My guess is that North Korea will not last more than a year in its present form.
It seems likely that one or more factions in North Korea will reach out to the US and Trump to see what kind of deal and guarantees can be had that will permit most of the NorK leadership to survive and keep their lives and their wealth even if they lose power. In this manner, Trump's meetings with Kim and getting the US and North Korea off the war track will bear fruit, with the US and Trump having a key, trusted role in peacefully denuclearizing and unifying Korea.
China too will get a say, with their primary objective being to prevent the emergence of a unified Korea that is aligned with the United States. China's strongest play will be to provoke a succession or coup that installs a pro-Chinese faction in power. This possibility will help to spur efforts to engage the US as a counter-weight to China.
"There is nothing unusual going on in North Korea. It's not true," a government official told Yonhap News Agency on condition of anonymity, referring to the CNN report that cited an unidentified "U.S. official with direct knowledge" of the matter.
"No unusual signs have been found that can back up the alleged health problem," the official said. "North Korea's Workers' Party, the military, the cabinet are not showing any special moves, such as an emergency alert."
Who the heck was Tur apologizing to?
The ChiComs?
