Snarky Snowflake Chuck Todd Attacks Mnuchin
Because Trump Called Him “a Bad Word”

{ rickwells.us } ~ NBC propagandist Chuck Todd is increasingly seething, especially as he brings the interview to close... about the way President Trump addressed him as a “son of a bitch” during the PA rally. In typical form, rather than acknowledging the achievements of the President, Todd attempts to build a case against him. He’ll then act like an unspeakable wrong has been committed against him when Trump responds. Todd hijacks an interview with Treasury Secretary Mnuchin for his forum, steering the conversation away from Trump’s achievements on trade and North Korea onto the less-important issue of Trump’s nicknames for his opponents, first with mad-Maxine Waters. Mnuchin dodges the question as to whether a hypothetical staffer could say mad-Waters is “low IQ” and keep their job, saying that things are different with campaign rallies. Todd then produces his next “piece of evidence,” the statement by Trump against the antagonistic “fake news” media in attendance. Todd distorts what took place as Trump encouraging the rally attendees to boo the media, which doesn’t really require any encouragement, and imploring them to cheer the Korean dictator... https://rickwells.us/snarky-chuck-todd-trump/.

{ foxnews.com } ~ The White House announced a series of recommendations Sunday night meant to stop school shootings... including a full audit and review of the FBI tip line after warnings about a student who killed 17 people at a Florida high school last month were not acted upon. The administration did not call for immediately increasing the minimum age for buying long guns to 21, as President Trump had previously advocated. However, it did announce that Education Secretary Betsy DeVos would chair a federal commission on school safety to study the proposal. DeVos said in a statement that the commission would look at a "wide range" of ideas in order to ensure that "no student or family should ever have to live the horror of Parkland or Sandy Hook ever again.”...  http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/03/11/white-house-backs-off-call-to-raise-minimum-age-to-buy-long-guns.html

The powerful and aggressive speech, which touched on inconvenient truths about the Democrat Party's history, even triggered some Democrats to walk off the House floor. Freitas delivered his remarks on Friday as a response to the very heated gun control debate...   https://www.dailywire.com/news/27878/watch-tim-kaine-challenger-gives-viral-gun-control-amanda-prestigiacomo.

{ dailycaller.com } ~ CNN uncovered a terrifying, Russian-produced weapon of influence last Thursday. It’s a poorly-made internet video game called “liar-Hilltendo.”... It’s certainly bizarre that Russian operatives spent time and money creating ridiculous projects like “liar-Hilltendo,” but the game, the memes, the Facebook ads and bot tweets don’t exactly paint the picture the media wants. Namely, the idea that Russia somehow hijacked our election thanks to the lame games, bad memes, silly Facebook ads and bot tweets with poor grammar...   http://dailycaller.com/2018/03/11/russia-meddling-conspiracy-theory/?utm_medium=email

{ townhall.com } ~ To what shall North Korea's latest pronouncement to give up its nuclear weapons in exchange for certain "security" guarantees be compared?

Choose from one of the following familiar promises: Of course I'll respect you in the morning; I promise to pay you back; I'm from the government and I'm here to help. There are more but you get the idea.

It has always been this way with North Korea. It reaches an agreement and then breaks it when it suits, only to use the period when the agreement is in force to violate it and then create a false pretext to nullify it, all the while continuing to build a nuclear arsenal. North Korea then reaches another agreement, which, again, it violates and the cycle continues.

If North Korea were applying for a loan, no bank would lend it a dime because of its deplorable credit rating, yet the West, which often appears to bank more on hope than reality, continues to dole out food and other aid hoping good intentions change Pyongyang's behavior.

The Arms Control Association (ACA), "a national nonpartisan membership organization dedicated to promoting public understanding of and support for effective arms control policies," has compiled a list of North Korea's broken promises and behavior that includes selling missile and nuclear technology to Iran and other enemies of the United States. The list runs 37 pages.

"Following the collapse of this agreement in 2002, North Korea claimed that it had withdrawn from the NPT in January 2003 and once again began operating its nuclear facilities."

The pattern repeated again in 2003, the ACA found, during the Six-Party Talks involving the U.S., North Korea, China, Russia, South Korea and Japan. After two years of stalemate and one crisis after another, North Korea pledged in 2005 to abandon "all nuclear weapons and existing weapons programs" and promised to return to the NPT agreement.

By 2009, after what by then had become familiar disagreements over inspections leading to verification that North Korea was living up to its promises, Pyongyang violated the 2005 agreement by launching missiles and vowing never to return to talks, a pledge it repeated until this latest reported promise to hold new talks about abandoning its nuclear weapons.

Last November, President Trump properly returned North Korea to the list of state sponsors of terrorism. Pyongyang had been there before, but was removed from the list in 2008. Not that it had stopped sponsoring terrorism, but the West does these sorts of things from time to time, falsely believing that what free people do affects the behavior of tyrants and dictators. Apparently, we have forgotten that communists lie as a matter of policy and they aren't the only ones, as we have seen with Islamic fundamentalist regimes.

Assuming North Korea is now serious about talks following Kim Jong-un's promise to never abandon his nukes (that promise is more credible), what is likely to come of it? If history proves anything -- and it does -- the answer is nothing that will benefit South Korea, the rest of Asia and most especially the United States. But it will make us feel good for "trying." Kim knows this. It's probably why he will lead us down this dark road again, only to get mugged at the end of it.
