“Either way, it has to be done. It’s in the core, strategic, existential interests of the US to ensure Norklandia cannot marry a nuke to an ICBM.”

In a nutshell. Should be the news story of the day, if we had any news media.

Start banning Chinese imports into the United States. How much is NK worth to China?

And there it is....

Today, the average American household spends less than 3.5 percent of its budget on clothing and shoes – under $1,800. Yet, we buy more clothing than ever before: nearly 20 billion garments a year, close to 70 pieces of clothing per person, or more than one clothing purchase per week.

Did they tell ya in old America a married couple could buy a brand new home on one single income? And there was plenty of money left for shoes, medical, vacations etc. Try that in today's America.

All this means is we’re about to attack. Get the U.N. on notice and let them put out some wimpy wishes. When that doesn’t pan out, we tried the diplomatic angle and its on record.

We don’t need new clothes. we have to pay our obamacare fines. Food and water is what people cannot do without, and we have both. China imports those.

Airing now on main C-SPAN (1) channel. Congress isn’t in session this week due to the holiday, so the main channel can cover any breaking news events like this.

Uk has summoned ambassador to NK and blah, said how mad we are...

"To increase diplomatic pressure" with allies

This one is lukewarm at best so far.

"UK supports new binding measures" Start work immediately

That was an even more forceful statement from Nikki Haley than Tillerson gave the same room back in April. US will seek new sanctions in the coming days and military action is on the table.

Clearly US is running out of patience with all of the missile tests, threatened nuclear tests, as well as the death of Otto Wambier. All of these these things have happened this year.
