World War 3: US and South Korea hold WAR GAMES as tensions rise on the peninsula

THE US and South Korea have begun their annual joint military exercises after they were delayed

by a month for the Winter Olympics but it looks as though tensions could soon heat up

after a cooling off period, it has been revealed.

The Foal Eagle and Key Resolve exercises are usually held every year around March but they

were postponed this year until after the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics and Paralympics, which started

in February and ended last month.

They were also postponed to help create conditions for resumption of talks between the two Koreas.

South Korean defence minister Song Young-moo said: "The exercise was postponed according

to the spirit of the Olympics.

"We have agreed to uphold the basis until after the Paralympics."

A Pentagon spokesman said in March that the two joint drills would involve about 23,700

US troops and 300,000 South Korean forces.

Military officials in Seoul said the scale of the exercises would be the same as previous

years and would not go beyond.

The Foal Eagle field exercise, which usually involves combined ground, air, naval and special

operations troops, will continue for a month.

The computer-simulated Key Resolve will be held for two weeks starting in mid-April.

North Korea, which has traditionally accused both South Korea and the United States of

practising invading the North during joint military drills, has remained quiet.

According to South Korea's National Security Office head Chung Eui-yong, in March North

Korean despot Kim Jong-un told a visiting South Korean delegation in Pyongyang that

he "understands" the situation regarding the joint drills.

The joint exercises come roughly a month ahead of an April 27 summit between the two Koreas

which is the first in more than a decade.

Kim Jong Un and South Korean President Moon Jae-in are widely expected to discuss denuclearisation

of the Korean peninsula and improvement of inter-Korean relations at the summit.

But Japan sent out a chilling warning on March 31 that North Korea is preparing for another

nuclear test.

Activity was seen at an underground tunnel giving clues that the North Korean leader

is preparing for another test.

The country's Foreign Minister Taro Kono said: "[North Korea] is doing everything possible

to prepare for the next nuclear test: it is currently extracting earth from an underground

tunnel where the previous test was carried out.

"If South Korea and the US respond to our efforts in good faith, build a peaceful and

stable atmosphere, and adopt phased and simultaneous steps for peace, the issue of denuclearisation

on the Peninsula can be resolved.

"The issue of denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula can be resolved, if South Korea

and the United States respond to our efforts with goodwill, create an atmosphere of peace

and stability while taking progressive and synchronous measures for the realisation of

peace."

Japan's defence chief welcomed on Friday the planned resumption of US-South Korean

joint military exercises, saying the annual drill would add pressure on North Korea to

abandon its nuclear weapons program.

The incident is under investigation.

Dunbar was assigned to Headquarters, U.S.

Army Special Operations Command, Ft Bragg, North Carolina.

Dunbar is the first U.S.

service member killed this year.

The last American soldier killed in Syria died from injuries suffered in a blast from an improvised explosive device in November of 2017.

According to an initial statement from the Combined Joint Task Force Operation Inherent Resolve (CJTF-OIR), two coalition members were killed and five were wounded by an IED in Syria Thursday night.

The other coalition member killed was UK soldier Sergeant Matt Tonroe, from the 3rd Battalion of the Parachute Regiment who was embedded with the US-led coalition.

The DoD said Thursday the "wounded personnel received immediate care and are being evacuated for further medical treatment.

According to the Associated Press and other reports, a roadside bomb exploded close to the headquarters of the Manbij Military Council, an Arab-Kurdish US.

-backed group, in the town of Manbij in Syria.

In November of 2009, he transitioned to Charlie Company, 2nd Battalion, 38th Cavalry Regiment (Long Range Surveillance), Fort Hood, T.X.,where he served for four years as a Squad Leader.

During his time in Fort Hood, he deployed to Iraq once again in support of combat operations.

In 2013, Master Sergeant Dunbar was assigned to Headquarters, United States Special Operations Command, where he served as a Team Member and deployed three times in support of combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Dunbar's military education includes the Basic Airborne Course, Combat Lifesaver Course, Basic Leader Course, Ranger School, Advanced Leaders Course, Pathfinder Course, Static Line Jumpmaster Course, Advanced Land Navigation Course, Senior Leaders Course, the Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape Course, the Military Free Fall and Jumpmaster Course, and the Special Forces Sniper Course.

Nikki Haley Drops $2B Announcement On United Nations NO LONGER(VIDEO)!!! - Duration: 7:42.

Nikki Haley Drops $2B Announcement On United Nations NO LONGER

and I now give the floor to Her Excellency mrs. nikki Haley the

permanent representative of the United States and member of president Trump's

cabinet thank you to the secretary-general for

being here and for his commitment to peacekeeping for the briefing from

chairman baki and mr. ray I have to tell you that your

advocacy and your passion and the way you fight for the people is to be

admired it's inspiring but it is to be listened to you you spoke of many truths

today and I think that we need to make sure that when those truths are spoken

it takes courage to say those truths and we shouldn't let that courage go to the

wayside we need to honor that courage by responding and so I thank you for your

honesty I'd also like to thank you mr. prime minister for coming to chair this

important meeting on the future of UN peacekeeping around the world the blue

helmet is the most instantly recognizable symbol of this

organization's mission we send peacekeepers to take on some of the

world's toughest challenges protecting defensives defenseless civilians

separating warring parties hoping to build state institutions where the rule

of law is nowhere to be found the UN Charter makes no mention of peacekeeping

no one thought of these kinds of missions when the Security Council first

met but when given an appropriate mandate and when properly managed and

equipped no one doubts that these missions can play an essential role

supporting peace and saving lives that is why peacekeeping reform remains

a top priority for the United States when I arrived here we laid out a few

principles that continue to guide our approach peacekeeping missions need to

support political solutions they need host country cooperation mandates must

be realistic and achievable missions need to have an exit strategy and we

need to be willing to change mandates when things aren't working these

principles do not reflect the narrow interest of a single member state but

rather we should all agree that these principles can improve peacekeeping

across the board for the past year every time the United States has looked at a

peacekeeping mandate we have gone back to these principles we believe these

missions are changing for the better missions are becoming more effective and

more efficient we reconfigured the mission in Haiti to focus on police and

the rule of law we changed the mission in Darfur and downsized it to reflect

current political and security realities we have supported responsible drawdowns

of peacekeeping missions most recently in Liberia while pushing peacekeepers in

Lebanon to actually use all of their mandate mandated authorities to be more

effective in carrying out their tasks and yet we still have a lot to do a

prime example is in Mali where the mission struggles to protect itself from

terrorist attacks that have made this mission the most dangerous peacekeeping

assignment in the world we have a responsibility to make this mandate

realistic and achievable but when a mandate is no longer realistic or

achievable we need to change it and focus on addressing the most pressing

priorities when a government stands in the way of a UN peacekeeping mission we

need to put real pressure on the government to change course when a

mission no longer supports a political solution we need to get the parties back

to the table or ask ourselves should the mission be there at all the United

States strongly believes that we need robust performance standards and

data-driven analysis on the performance of peacekeepers the United States

encourages the Secretariat to develop and implement a comprehensive

performance policy that identifies clear standards evaluates the

performance of all personnel and includes measures to ensure

accountability when they fall short we need to develop a culture of performance

when it comes to the peacekeeping operations at the UN the people the UN

serves deserve to know that when blue helmets arrive they are qualified

appropriately equipped and ready to perform their duty as part of this

effort we must intensify our work to eliminate sexual exploitation and abuse

and peacekeeping the Secretary General took positive action to address abuses

in the Central African Republic but this behavior is still happening there can be

no excuses we encourage the full use of resolution 2270 to thora T's to end the

culture of impunity including responding to allegations in manouse CO and UNMISS

all member states need to support the secretary-general when he takes action

to make sure peacekeepers meet the highest standards of conduct resources

are important for peacekeeping of course the United States has long been the

largest financial contributor to un peacekeeping by far that will not change

but peacekeeping is a shared responsibility with shared

responsibility comes shared burdens and shared costs one country should not

shoulder more than one-quarter of the UN peacekeeping budget and we look forward

to a more equitable distribution of the budget among member states moving

forward the United States will not pay more than 25 percent of the peacekeeping

budget this is a cap required by US law we pledge to work with member states and

the organization to ensure we make this adjustment in a fair and sensible manner

that protects UN peacekeeping all of us have a role to play and all of us

must step up the Security Council the UN Secretariat regional organizations like

the African Union troops and police contributors and host governments have

to work together as we move forward we need to always remember why we deploy

peacekeeping missions in the first place we send peacekeepers to the front line

to help those who have been victims of war who have often experienced

unimaginable atrocities if we think about the people peacekeepers are meant

to serve and keep those people at the forefront of our minds none of us should

hesitate to do our part to make peacekeeping as effective as it can be

thank you thank you god bless you and God bless america

President Donald Trump Just Blew the Lid Off BIGGEST SCANDAL in US History - Duration: 12:33.

President Donald Trump Just Blew the Lid Off BIGGEST SCANDAL in US History

The Trump's organization has revealed an alarming, and lethal, actuality: the Department

of Veterans Affairs has been giving its healing facilities a chance to procure specialists

and attendants with renounced therapeutic licenses!

Clearly this has been occurring for as long as 15 years.

Obviously, and in light of current circumstances, it damages government laws.

In guide logical inconsistency to a 1999 law that bans any VA from procuring a social insurance

specialist whose licenses had been repudiated in any state, in 2002 the VA disseminated

rules that enabled its healing facilities to employ specialists and medical attendants

that had a permit in one of the 50 states, regardless of whether they had, already, being

liable to a permit denial.

A report by USA Today begins, "Veteran patients in up and coming threat at VA clinic in D.C.,

examination finds."

Among the findings:

• In February 2016, a tray used in repairing jaw fractures was removed from the hospital

because of an outstanding invoice to a vendor.

• In April 2016, four prostate biopsies had to be canceled because there were no tools

to extract the tissue sample.

• In June 2016, the hospital found one of its surgeons had used expired equipment during

a procedure

• In March 2017, the facility found chemical strips used to verify equipment sterilization

had expired a month earlier, so tests performed on nearly 400 items were not reliable

Missal said that the practices have placed patients at "unnecessary risk," though

so far, the Office of Inspector General has not determined if patients

were harmed.

WHY THE US's LRASM WILL BE POTENT THREAT TO RUSSIA & CHINA? - Duration: 7:42.

The United States has conducted its sixth successful test of a new Long-Range Anti Ship

Missile or LRASM On March 19, Lockheed Martin released a press

statement saying that the U.S. Air Force had successfully tested Lockheed's Long-Range

Anti-Ship Missile off the coast of California.

"During the test, a B-1B from the 337th Test Squadron at Dyess Air Force Base, Texas,

launched a LRASM over the Sea Range at Point Mugu, Calif., successfully impacting the maritime

target and meeting test objectives," the press release said.

David Helsel, the LRASM program director at Lockheed, was quoted in the press release

as saying; "LRASM has now proven itself in 6 consecutive flight missions.

The reliability and outstanding capability of LRASM will provide an unmatched weapon

to our warfighter in their quest for sea control in contested environment."

In this video, Defense Updates analyzes WHY THE US'S LRASM WILL BE POTENT THREAT TO

RUSSIA & CHINA?

The ant ship firepower is badly needed, as the U.S. Navy has allowed its capabilities

in this area to deteriorate in recent decades.

For a long time, America's naval ships relied on the increasingly archaic Harpoon missile

to fight against adversaries' surface fleets.

That missile, which was first deployed in the 1970s, only has a range of 70 to 150 miles,

depending on the variant.

This put the U.S. Navy at a disadvantage compared to countries like Russia and China.

Russia has deployed Brahmos.

The Brahmos cruise missile is produced by India-based Brahmas Aerospace, set up in 1998,

and is a joint venture between India's Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO)

and Russia's NPO Mashinostroyenia.

Brahmos is one of the fastest cruise missile in operation, and travels at speeds of Mach

2.8 to 3.0.

India and Russia has recently decided to extend the range of Brahmas missile to 800 km from

the current 300 km.

Russia has also successfully tested a hypersonic cruise missile.

The Kinzhal or Dagger was one of the weapons the Russian president unveiled in his state

of the nation address.

Kinzhal reportedly has a range of approximately 1,250 miles or 2000 km and a top speed of

more than 10 times the speed of sound.

According to the Russian president, units in the country's Southern Military District,

which borders Ukraine and the Black Sea, have deployed the missiles operationally.

China deploys the YJ-18.

The YJ-18 is a Chinese family of anti-ship and land attack cruise missiles.

Western analysts believe the YJ-18 is a copy of the Russian Kalibr 3M-54E, with a cruising

range of 180 km or 110 mi at Mach 0.8 and a sprint range of 40 km or 25 mi at

Mach 2.5 to 3.0.

Chinese media has recently published never-before-seen footage of its DF-10 nuclear cruise missiles

capable of reaching US military bases in Japan and South Korea.

Carrying nuclear warheads weighing up to 500 kilos, the DF-10 "Long Sword" missiles,

with a range of 930 miles, can be mounted on missile trucks, submarines or warships.

Some variations also feature stealth technology and supersonic speeds.

LRASM is a DARPA and U.S. Navy-funded program meant to provide the U.S. Navy and Air Force

with an offensive antisurface weapon (OASuW) to counter the growing threats from antiaccess/area-denial

(A2/AD) doctrines.

The program begun under DARPA in 2009 and leverages existing technology from the Joint

Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile Extended Range (JASSM-ER) program.

Its development was fast tracked under the Pentagon Better Buying Power 3.0 program,

with the expectation that it would serve as a stopgap solution to compensate for the Navy's

aging Harpoon antiship missiles.

In 2016, the Pentagon began modifying the SM-6 Standard Missile, which is usually used

for antimissile and air-defense missions, to serve as an immediate stopgap capability.

In its antiship variant, the SM-6 has a range of over 200 miles but an extremely small warhead

relative to the Harpoon.

LRASM will combine the best of both worlds: a missile with a long range and massive warhead,

on top of its ability to operate in electronic-warfare environments.

LRASM has a reported range of 500 nautical miles, and carries a 1000 pound penetrator

and blast-fragmentation warhead.

LRASM is primarily designed to provide the U.S. Navy and Air Force with a precision-guided

long-range standoff capability that can survive in aggressive electronic-warfare environments.

To achieve this, it uses onboard sensors and a semiautonomous guidance system to reduce

its dependence on intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) platforms, network

links and GPS navigation.

It also employs "innovative terminal survivability approaches and precision lethality" to avoid

advanced enemy countermeasures while still reaching its intended target.

The LRASM tackles two problems the US Navy has.

It has a longer range and it is more survivable due to its electronics and stealth.

The one thing it still lacks compared to Russian, Indian and Chinese counterparts is speed.

The LRASM is subsonic, meaning that the CIWS i.e Close in Weapon Systems of enemy ships

have quite a long time to shoot at it.

It basically trades speed for range and will rely on stealth to defeat medium range defense systems.

While it will someday be on ships, LRASM will initially be operated by the U.S. Air Force

from its B1-B bombers and the U.S. Navy from the F/A-18E/F, which operates from

aircraft carriers.

The initial LRASMs are expected to be operational in 2018.

The US Navy will hold a competition for the Offensive Anti-Surface Warfare (OASuW) Increment

2 anti-ship missile as a follow-on to LRASM to enter service in 2024.

The OASuW Increment 2 competition will be completely open.

It is expected the LRASM will compete against the joint Kongsberg/Raytheon offering of the

Joint Strike Missile (JSM) for air-launch needs and an upgraded Raytheon Tomahawk cruise

missile for surface-launch needs.

Sweden has publicly expressed interest in the LRASM in response to concerns of Russian

actions in Eastern Europe.

The United Kingdom, and Canada have also expressed interest in the missile.

Sessions Names Utah US Attorney Investigating Corruption At Obama FBI, DOJ - Duration: 3:52.

Sessions Names Utah US Attorney Investigating Corruption At Obama FBI, DOJ

AG Sessions has finally named the US Attorney looking into criminal corruption at the Obama

DOJ and FBI under Loretta Lynch and James Comey.

FISA abuse , the COUP and leaks…

Attorney General Jeff Sessions has announced that there will not be a second special counsel

appointed at this time to investigate FISA abuse and other criminal wrongdoing within

the Obama DOJ and FBI, some of which continues through present day.

Sessions put a name with an anonymous individual he previously alluded to, stating he has already

had US Attorney John Huber, a Utah Republican who was appointed by Hussein Obama and is

endorsed by Senator Mike Lee (R-UT), tapped to conduct the criminal investigation

Whether this is a good thing or more obstruction by the AG and his staff of Obama holdovers

and subversives remains to be seen.

Sessions is not viewed as trustworthy by a large portion of the American people, particularly

the informed Trump base.

Both he and Huber can expect to be watched like a hawk by the American people.

The good news is that, at least taken at face value, being from Utah puts him beyond the

influence of the DC swamp creatures.

The bad news is that if he is corrupt he has a perfect cover of improbability behind which

hide.

There's also the problem of who does he report the misconduct of his bosses, Rosenstein

and Sessions to?

On the positive side Ed Henry noted that Sessions directed Huber to use "his broad prosecutorial

powers with a broad mandate to investigate misconduct that could extend beyond FISA abuse."

That could be part of an elaborate whitewash just as easily as a legitimate investigation.

Henry notes, "So former FBI officials James Comey, Andrew McCabe could be facing scrutiny

for not just failing to tell the FISA Judge that the anti-Trump dossier was paid for by

the DNC and the Clinton campaign, this prosecutor could be looking at McCabe's leaking, his

lying to investigators, plus those FBI text messages."

Sessions wrote, "I am confident that Mr. Huber's review will include a full, complete,

and objective evaluation of these matters in a manner that is consistent with the law

and the facts."

He continued, "I receive regular updates from Mr. Huber and upon the conclusion of

his review, will receive his recommendations as to whether any matters not currently under

investigation should be opened, whether any matters currently under investigation require

further resources, or whether any matters merit the appointment of a special counsel."

Sessions is belatedly doing what he should have initiated over a year ago, investigating

the mounting evidence that Comey, Mueller, McCabe and Rosenstein are dirty cops who have,

along with their deep state enablers, completely weaponized the Justice Department and FBI.

He hasn't ruled out a second special counsel, the determination, again at face value, will

be made based upon the corruption uncovered.

These actions would have been seen as entirely appropriate if Sessions hadn't already squandered

every ounce of public trust that he brought into the office with him.A fair, thorough,

and productive investigation will go a long ways toward repairing Mr. Sessions' damaged

credibility and reputation.

As for now, the American people, House Intelligence Committee members and House and Senate Judiciary

Committee members will be waiting and watching, intently.

Rod Rosenstein has dodged another bullet, for now; rats have nine lives too.

S. Korea, U.S. begin annual military drill postponed for Winter Olympics - Duration: 0:51.

South Korea and the United States today, as scheduled, are starting one of their joint

annual military exercises,... called Foal Eagle.

This year, Foal Eagle was postponed for the Winter Olympics and Paralympics in South Korea;

it normally starts in late February or early March.

It's also shorter this time.

Foal Eagle will take four weeks instead of the usual two months, wrapping up by the time

South Korean President Moon Jae-in heads for an historic summit with North Korean leader

Kim Jong-un.

The South Korean military has said that the size of the drills will be similar to previous

years,... it's reported that they'll be less "intense" -- that is, fewer U.S. strategic

assets will be involved, and so on, to emphasize the exercise's defensive nature.

Around 11-thousand-500 U.S. personnel are taking part alongside some 300-thousand South

Koreans.

( US News ) U.N. Security Council Imposes New Sanctions On North Korea - Duration: 10:01.

U.N. Security Council Imposes New Sanctions On North Korea

UNITED NATIONS/SEOUL, Dec 22 (Reuters) - The U.N.

Security Council unanimously imposed new sanctions on North Korea on Friday for its Nov.

29 intercontinental ballistic missile test, seeking to limit its access to refined petroleum products and crude oil and its earnings from workers abroad.

A Security Council resolution adopted 15-0 seeks to ban nearly 90 percent of refined petroleum product exports to North Korea by capping them at 500,000 barrels a year and, in a last-minute change, demands the repatriation of North Koreans working abroad within 24 months, instead of 12 months as first proposed.

The U.S.-drafted resolution also caps crude oil supplies to North Korea at 4 million barrels a year and commits the Council to further reductions if Pyongyang were to conduct another nuclear test or launch another ICBM.

North Korea on Nov.

29 said it successfully tested a new ICBM in a "breakthrough" that puts the U.S.

mainland within range of its nuclear weapons whose warheads could withstand re-entry to the Earth's atmosphere.

Tensions have been rising over North Korea's nuclear and missile programs, which it pursues in defiance of years of U.N.

Security Council resolutions, with bellicose rhetoric coming from both Pyongyang and the White House.

In November, North Korea demanded a halt to what it called "brutal sanctions," saying a previous round imposed after its sixth and most powerful nuclear test on Sept.

headquarters in New York City. U.S.

diplomats have made clear they are seeking a diplomatic solution but proposed the new, tougher sanctions resolution to ratchet up pressure on North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

"It sends the unambiguous message to Pyongyang that further defiance will invite further punishments and isolation," Nikki Haley, the U.S.

ambassador to the United Nations, said after the vote.

The North Korean mission to the United Nations did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the vote.

Wu Haitao, China's deputy U.N.

ambassador, said tensions on the Korean peninsula risk "spiraling out of control" and he repeated Beijing's call for talks.

"Only by meeting each other halfway and through dialog and consultations can a peaceful settlement be found," he said.

North Korea regularly threatens to destroy South Korea, the United States and Japan, and says its weapons programs are necessary to counter U.S.

aggression.

The United States stations 28,500 troops in the South, a legacy of the 1950-53 Korean War.

On Friday, a spokesperson for North Korea's foreign ministry called U.S.

President Donald Trump's recently released national security strategy the latest American policy seeking to "stifle our country and turn the entire Korean peninsula" into an outpost of American hegemony.

He said Trump was seeking "total subordination of the whole world."

INCREASING PRESSURE Speaking before the Security Council vote, analysts said the new sanctions could have a major effect on the North's economy.

"If they were enforced, the cap on oil would be devastating for North Korea's haulage industry, for North Koreans who use generators at home or for productive activities, and for (state-owned enterprises) that do the same," said Peter Ward, a columnist for NK News, a website that tracks North Korea.

The forced repatriation of foreign workers would also cut off vital sources of foreign currency and investment not only for the government but also for North Korea's emerging market economy, he said.

China, which supplies most of North Korea's oil, has backed successive rounds of U.N.

sanctions but had resisted past U.S.

calls to cut off supplies to its neighbor.

The move to curb Chinese fuel exports to North Korea may have limited impact after China National Petroleum Corp suspended diesel and gasoline sales to its northern neighbor in June over concerns it would not get paid.

Business has slowed steadily since then, with zero shipments of diesel, gasoline and other fuel from China in October.

November data will be released on Monday.

Russia quietly boosted economic support for North Korea earlier this year, and last week Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Igor Morgulov said Moscow was not ready to sign up to sanctions that would strangle the country economically.

In a bid to further choke North Korea's external sources of funding, the resolution also seeks to ban North Korean exports of food products, machinery, electrical equipment, earth and stone, including magnesite and magnesia, wood and vessels.

It also bans exports to North Korea of industrial equipment, machinery, transportation vehicles, and industrial metals as well as subjecting 15 North Koreans and the Ministry of the People's Armed Forces to a global asset freeze and travel ban.

It also seeks to allow countries to seize, inspect and freeze any vessel in their ports or territorial waters that they believe was carrying banned cargo or involved in prohibited activities.

Even if the proposed sanctions have an economic effect, it is not clear whether that would push Pyongyang to negotiate or stop its weapons development, said Kim Sung-han, a former South Korean vice foreign minister.

"We have had numerous - sometimes so-called toughest - sanctions against North Korea over the past 25 years," he said.

"Almost none have worked effectively to halt the regime's military and nuclear ambitions."   (Additional reporting by Christian Shepherd in Beijing, Warren Strobel in Washington and Michelle Nichols; Writing by Josh Smith and Arshad Mohammed; Editing by Nick Macfie and James Dalgleish)    .

Parkland Survivor Criticizes Laura Ingraham For Only Apologizing After Advertisers Fled

12k   91.

Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg on Friday pilloried Fox News host Laura Ingraham, declining to accept her apology after she mocked him for getting rejected from several colleges ― one of several right-wing attacks against the student activists of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.

"She's only apologizing after a third of her advertisers pulled out, and I think it's really disgusting, the fact that she basically tried promoting her show after apologizing to me," Hogg, 17, said on CNN's "New Day." "If she really wants to do something, she could cover inner-city violence and the real issues that we have in America." On Wednesday night, Hogg called on his Twitter followers to pressure advertisers to cut ties with Ingraham's TV and radio shows. By Friday evening, at least 14 companies had announced they were pulling their ads or had otherwise sought to distance themselves from Ingraham: Nutrish TripAdvisor Wayfair Expedia Nestlé Johnson & Johnson Stitch Fix Hulu Jos.

Bank Office Depot Jenny Craig Miracle-Ear Liberty Mutual Principal Some of the companies did not specify whether their decision was directly tied to Ingraham's comments.

But a number of them did criticize the host's remarks.

"As a company, we support open dialogue and debate on issues," a spokeswoman for the home goods retailer Wayfair said.

"However, the decision of an adult to personally criticize a high school student who has lost his classmates in an unspeakable tragedy is not consistent with our values." Ingraham apologized Thursday afternoon, attributing her apology to "reflection, in the spirit of Holy Week." She also invited Hogg to appear on her show "anytime for a productive discussion." I think its great that corporate America is standing with me, David Hogg says of his call for advertisers to boycott Laura Ingrahams Fox News show, They cannot push us around, especially when all were trying to do here is save lives https://t.co/kL7RrM6fHF pic.twitter.com/yvz1PpXMxg — New Day (@NewDay) March 30, 2018 "We will no longer advertise with The Laura Ingraham Show moving forward," a representative for Office Depot told HuffPost on Friday.

A representative for Duracell, meanwhile, said the company "does not comment on media buys and placements." A spokesman for Jos.

Bank told HuffPost the company did not specifically have ad spending on Ingraham's Fox News show, "The Ingraham Angle." Ads that aired on Wednesday night were likely "bonus ads" from the network.

Principal told HuffPost, "We are distancing ourselves by removing our advertising from 'The Ingraham Angle' show at this time." Also on Friday, Hogg praised "corporate America" for "standing with me and the rest of my friends," and accused Ingraham of creating a distraction.

"It is important that we stand together as corporate and civic America and show them that they cannot push us around, especially when all we're trying to do here is save lives," he said.

"And when people try to distract, like what Laura is trying to do right now, from what the real issue is, which is gun violence in America, it's not only sad, it's just wrong." "I am not the issue here," Hogg went on.

"The issue is gun violence in America, but she is trying to distract from that, and I hate it." Hogg also told CNN that he may take a gap year in order to continue his activism through the midterm elections and work with candidates who support gun control measures.

Other than her apology on Twitter, Ingraham did not address the matter Thursday evening on her Fox News show.

A representative for the network declined to comment beyond Ingraham's apology.
