Kim Jong Un down for the count? Hard to know anything for sure out of NK.

I honestly don't know how I feel about this. Power vacuum in NK could be very scary, but Kim dynasty dying out would be wonderful news.


It would lead to a very bad humanitarian crisis and refugee crisis for South Korea and China. They would rather deal with the status quo than that.

I agree with you though. No male heir in a patriarchal society; time for this line to end.

His sister is the head of the ministry of propaganda and very powerful politically... she probly would have been the best choice for successor over the two sons. But zero chance she assumes control.

Junta junta junta!

Now some reports are indicating that Kim has died. Still no confirmation, yet. Chinese and Japanese sources seem to differ.

Woot!


Wish he would have announced sooner, but this could be huge.

LP convention is going to be pretty interesting.

The Tyrant in NYC has told the NYPD to target and arrest Jews for congregating and practicing their religion:

My message to the Jewish community, and all communities, is this simple: the time for warnings has passed. I have instructed the NYPD to proceed immediately to summons or even arrest those who gather in large groups. This is about stopping this disease and saving lives. Period.

Why not black or Latino communities, why specifically mention the Jewish community by name?

He could of just as easily said communities without specifically mentioning the Jews and inviting anti semitism.
