The WH meeting will be classified but I’m sure there will be leaks.

Making the case to ask for a declaration of war.

While Fat Boy may be on the verge of something, this is a very public way of calling his bluff. If Trump wanted to speak to them, he’d have had a conference call or walked himself over to the Senate. He would have been one person going. But bringing out 100 is sending a message.

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.

How will they all fit in the Oval Office?

I'm sure no one thought of that and they'll be forced to sit out in front on the White House front lawn.

We better get ourselves EMP proofed before we take care of business. The d@mn dimicins and republicrats have allowed our national defense to wither. And our civil defense to be non-existent. Except for them of course. If our present government decides we must go after it then I hope they are prepared to silence the traitors who will; support the DPRK here at home and knife our troops in the back as soon as they possibably can. You know democrats.

I think some terrifyingly effective new tech is about be displayed, sort of an Iron Dome for Seoul with all those players in symphony. Should result in 98 mullahs suddenly vacationing in Switzerland.

Brilliant strategy.

If HE goes there, ‘they’ can dis him, not show up, be disrespectful plus have all their ‘aides/mouthpieces’ there.

Now it is ‘Team Trump’, nothing to interrupt and those that don’t show are more obvious.

These clowns are still playing checkers and the President is playing ‘Klingon Chess’.

No need to
Korea was a military action It was simply put on pause / never signed a treaty

Maybe the WH finally built a bug- free bubble room
After the wahabists agents handled IT security for congress the whole place is probably compromised

I’ve been saying for some time we’ve been reprogramming their rockets causing them to blow up and joked that we should cause them to boomerang. Am thinking more that we cause NK weapon to blow up on themselves rather than risk our equipment or men

I also think this meeting will be to explain what happened Tuesday night, not ask permission. Thursday’s dinner with SCOTUS was cancelled yesterday.

The only way to stop them is with a preemptive nuke strike.
