Whenever I see:

The Associated Press (@AP)

...along with

.. statement by an unnamed North Korean Foreign Ministry spokesman...

My Old School BS Meter gets pegged so hard it makes the ground shake.

My sometimes bitter past experience with the MSM has led me to the conclusion that its sole function is as an Absolute Negative Barometer.

If the MSM rose up and declared that the sun rose in the East, I'd be up at dawn to verify that as a fact.

You have a way of looking at large amounts of information and analyzing it and producing a summary that not everyone could supply.

One thing about your analysis that the Deep State is cornered:

Is that like a worried, harried group of declining Deep Staters, or like a dangerous,cornered, injured jungle animal?

JFK and several Clinton Crime Family victims needed to know that at a critical juncture in their lives.

You’re right. Why should any foreign country trust us? We go from Conservative and then back to communism! I don’t know how much longer our country can handle these swings.

That makes sense. But can they take the pressure Trump is going to put on them? Trump will probably double down on sanctions.

The South Koreans will soon be getting their own nukes, if they don't have a clandestine program going already.

Aside: this is what happens after decades of them dealing with people who didn’t really mean it or, worse, were actively winking (like Clinton or Obama) ... they come to expect you don’t mean what you say or say what you mean.

Meanwhile nothing but some show activities appeariong to end the use of testin site has changed in North Korea’s nuclear and missile programs, and there are hints that new additional work is being done in other places. But the talks are buying Kim time, and when the talks do not produce denuclearization, Kim will have an even bigger demonstration for the world, and then where will we be.

It is very easy to believe the DNC is a nest or treacherous back stabbing serpents because that’s what they are.

Thanks for posting this reality versus the unreality of the so called news.

Why are folks so foolish as to believe the public is entitled to know the details of delicate negotiations.
It will never move fast enough to suit Trump detractors.

His detractors are like 4 year olds on a cross-country driving vacation.

At every mile they’re whining, “Are we there yet?”.

No one plays the long game like the east Asians. They can get the same long-term deal after the mid-terms, and they know it.

“The statement by an unnamed North Korean Foreign Ministry spokesman on Saturday came hours after Pompeo concluded two days of talks with North Korean officials led by Kim Yong Chol.”

“unnamed North Korean....” is the same as “unnamed sources”, or “sources say....”, and it is the leftist leaning Ass. Press being quoted here.

My BS meter is going wild. This is most definitely an article I place in my “to be believed only upon presentation of proof file”.

“CVID” has been around since at least 2003, under Bush-2.

“My guess, they want to stall until after the mid-terms to see how strong Trump’s hand is.”

Chicken Dinner!

You are right. That people on FR still think NK is operating with sincerity, or that they are telling the truth, or that they can somehow be trusted, or they they are going to negotiate in good faith and that all problems on the Korean Peninsula “snap!” are now somehow gone just. like. that. overnight... well....—has got to be one of the oddest things I have seen in a long time on this forum, at least in my 21 years here.

Yes They want to push it out into the six month safe zone for them, until midterms at least. If they can park it in this time frame, all the while cheating while continuing nuke development underground, they will do it.

The dems want to muddy up the water prior to the midterms to deny a clear win for Trump. The deal has been done for some time. They are scurrying about to quickly de-nuk. Knowing Trump, there is a bonus in it if they finish early. Maybe he will by him a boat.
