All 100 senators have been asked to the White House for the briefing by Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis, Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats and General Joseph Dunford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the aides said.

I’d bet the coalition has tons of food to air-drop, or even truck in, if the extraction of Kim goes as smoothly as expected.
I also understand there are millions of Chinese soldiers ready to swoop in with steak dinners, champagne, roses and chocolate for the available girlies in NK. All the problems seem to have been pre-solved, just waiting for go, specifically someone - Merkel? - to provide Kim asylum.
Those extra 150,000 Chinese troops on his Northern border may be getting his attention, not to mention the Rusian build up ...
It was never a declared war, rather a UN police action ... whatever that is.
believe i saw something earlier today to that effect.
Either way it's a country that has been under siege by it's own government for 50 yrs....to call the people a Personality cult is an understatement....it far surpasses that.
” Sounds like Trump is sending a message to NK, China, Russia, and Japan.”
Only to NOKO, the others already know and will part of whatever happens.
[They will meet in dining room. (Serving Trump water and a really nice piece of chocolate cake?)]

Now, there WAS this marble rye ...... but I think it was stolen.
If the Boca Breeze ever gets wind of the story....

“Pres. Trump is having dinner tonight with Sen. & Mrs. McCain and Sen. Graham”
McCain is bringing both of his wives?
to call the people a Personality cult is an understatement
Actually there won't be an issue with feeding them.....in the past couple years Kim gave the farmers a lot more control over their farms and with that a larger % of profits for themselves.....just bring in some machinery and they'll go wild producing!
Also the Un has been preparing for this for years....so food drops etc. will come in swiftly in the rural areas.
My concern is the 'millions' in the gulag work camps.....that's going to be a serious problem because so many were born and raised there....and others years under the brutality and starvation they've endured.....so much they haven't a clue of even the the "prosperity" of the state they're in.
Remember the one defector from the camps who escaped...once outside and walking through the land he saw N.Koreans working in the fields by hand and cart and thought he had just stepped into paradise!
Additionally you have a people who have been subjected so much their ability for critical thinking is stunted at best
Poor decision to announce that, if it’s true. I’d think that buses would be easy targets, but perhaps they’ll shut down streets during the.....procession and recession.
.....”Do you think instant relative freedom will render them insane? Certainly contact with chinese contractors has given them some picture of the real world outside their bubble?”.....
No but but it’s not going to be an easy transition.....You have to remember it’s not so much that they aren’t aware of an outside world...it’s they don’t believe it because of the propaganda machinery that operates 24 hours there....everything outside N.Korea’s teachings is BAD and harmful ‘in their minds’.
It has been said that even the officials close to Kim, who have the advantage of seeing the outside world....don’t believe it.....belief is the issue.
I’ve worked with cult members....and let me say it is not an easy return for them.....this is an entire country of people who do not believe they are brainwashed....even when they are aware of the outside world. And they’re deeply nationalistic.
When Rubio’s around 100 people, it typically involves foam.
Feed them this and be done with it!
Yup. June 7,1981.
Um, is it wise to announce that all of the Senate will be at the WH on a certain day and a certain time? Just seems like it makes it more of a target for the jihadis.

In that case, how about getting half the House over there, too?
I wonder if the NK people know they’re about to be freed.

They don’t, because they aren’t. The US will take out Kim’s nuke facilities and southern artillery, giving China a way to save face by rushing in to clean up the mess and rattle some sabres. NK will be a Chinese “protectorate”, everybody will go home, Trump will have saved the majority of US military resources for the bigger battle to come in the Middle East. Lots of muzzies will be quaking in their sandals when they notice him looking their way. My guess.
