The US navy will move a strike group towards the western Pacific Ocean to provide a presence near the Korean peninsula, a US official said on Saturday.
The Carl Vinson strike group, which includes an aircraft carrier, will make its way from Singapore, according to the official, who spoke to Reuters on condition of anonymity.
The news followed a Friday report by NBC that the National Security Council had included the return of nuclear weapons to South Korea in options presented to Donald Trump for dealing with the threat posed by North Korea. Killing North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong-un, was also presented as an option, NBC reported.

I think I'd pull that trigger and show the Pillsbury Dough Boy / Chi Coms it's time to ratchet it down, A LOT.

Thank you for your service.
Now this is what we want.That pig faced faggot threatened us with nuclear attack. I don’t understand what we are waiting on. He should be Nuked.

It was almost nothing to my late father’s generation and what they went through. That includes Don Rickles who passed the other day.
It’s time for McCain to make more jokes about the fat boy.
Tungil!
Not over till the fat boy sings.
