U.S. National Security Advisor John Bolton says Washington is considering Libya's model
of denuclearization during talks with North Korea.
That means, Pyongyang needs to dismantle all of its nuclear weapons before the U.S. makes
any concessions.
But there are much doubts whether such an approach is possible.
Lee Ji-won tells us more.
Washington is considering using Libya's model of denuclearization as a benchmark during
its negotiations with North Korea over the North's nuclear program.
That's according to White House National Security Advisor John Bolton,... who told Fox News
on Sunday that the North has to give up all of its nuclear weapons before the U.S. gives
the regime anything in return.
"We have very much in mind the Libya model from 2003, 2004.
There are obviously differences.
The Libyan program was much smaller.
But that was basically the agreement that we made.
And so we'll want to test North Korea in this first meeting for evidence that they have
made that strategic decision."
He added that the North Koreans had already agreed to give up all aspects of the nuclear
program in their promise with the South in 1992,... but didn't follow through on that
agreement.
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo also mentioned the same conditions in an interview with ABC
News on Saturday.
He said the objective remains the same: complete, verifiable, irreversible denuclearization,...
and added that he saw a real opportunity to achieve this during his visit to the North
last month.
But an official from South Korea's top office had said in March that North Korea's denuclearization
cannot be done in the same way as Libya's,... as Pyongyang's program is much more developed,...
and it isn't as easy as simply plugging out a TV cable.
Many experts also say that what Pyongyang and Washington want from each other cannot
be done all at once.
"Security guarantees for North Korea is not something the Trump administration can promise,
but it is in the hands of the congress.
Building a U.S. embassy in the North and normalizing ties all need steps,... and it won't be easy,
as the democrats want not just denuclearization, but an improvement in human rights issues
within the North as well."
The expert also added, with policies always changing along with different administrations,
the North would want their complete, verifiable, irreversible guarantee to be legally binding
within the U.S. Lee Ji-won, Arirang News.

REPORT: U.S. Posts A Positive Number It Hasn't Seen In Almost 50 Years, Trump Scores Huge
Although the left and their cronies have spent the last year and a half attacking and throwing
temper tantrums as they have tried to overthrow a sitting president, there is no way for them
to hide the stone cold facts of what the Trump presidency has meant to our nation and its
people. President Trump in a year and a half into his presidency was able to do what no
other president has been able to do since 1969 when the Republican Richard Nixon was
president.
In new numbers released on Friday, we can now confirm what isn't hard to notice if
you take the time away from "resisting" in order to see what's actually right in
front of you. President Trump has given us the best economic numbers most of us have
seen in our entire lifetime. The jobless rate is now officially the lowest since 1969.
In fact, In a separate report released on Thursday, the Labor Department has now said
initial claims for state unemployment benefits have dropped 24,000 to a seasonally adjusted
209,000 for the week ended April 21. That's the lowest number seen since December 1969.
More on these numbers via Yahoo Finance:
The number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits fell to the lowest level in more
than 48 years last week and the goods trade deficit narrowed sharply in March amid strong
export growth.
"The U.S. economy is still moving higher," said Chris Rupkey, chief economist at MUFG
in New York. "The pullback in goods orders from companies is not a red flag for the economic
outlook yet even if the caution light should be left on."
The Commerce Department said orders for non-defense capital goods excluding aircraft, a closely
watched proxy for business spending plans, slipped 0.1 percent last month. Data for February
was revised to show these so-called core capital goods increasing 0.9 percent instead of the
previously reported 1.4 percent jump.
Economists polled by Reuters had forecast core capital goods orders rising 0.5 percent
last month. Core capital goods orders increased 6.5 percent on a year-on-year basis.
Last month, orders for machinery fell 1.7 percent, the biggest decline since April 2016,
after a gain of 0.3 percent in February. There were, however, increases in orders of primary
metals, computers and electronic products, fabricated metals and electrical equipment,
appliances and components.
Overall orders for durable goods, items ranging from toasters to aircraft that are meant to
last three years or more, increased 2.6 percent in March as demand for transportation equipment
rose 7.6 percent. That followed a 3.5 percent surge in durable goods orders in February.
Shipments of core capital goods declined 0.7 percent last month after a downwardly revised
1.0 percent increase in February. Core capital goods shipments are used to calculate equipment
spending in the government's gross domestic product measurement.
They were previously reported to have vaulted 1.4 percent in February. Business spending
on equipment likely cooled in the first quarter after double-digit growth in the second half
of 2017. The moderation in equipment investment is expected to have combined with a sharp
slowdown in consumer spending to restrain economic growth in the first quarter.
U.S. Treasury yields held at lower levels after the data. The dollar rose against a
basket of currencies. Stocks on Wall Street were trading higher as strong earnings from
Facebook and a handful of chipmakers powered technology shares.
According to a Reuters survey of economists, GDP growth likely slowed to a 2.0 percent
annualized rate in the first three months of the year. The economy grew at a 2.9 percent
pace in the fourth quarter. The government will publish its advance estimate of first-quarter
GDP on Friday. The anticipated slowdown in economic growth
is likely to be temporary against the backdrop of a robust labor market that is expected
to underpin consumer spending. The economy is also expected to get a boost from the Trump
administration's $1.5 trillion income tax cut package as well as increased government
spending, which should also support business investment.
"We still expect investment growth to pick up over the rest of the year, as tax cuts
boost domestic demand and capacity constrains bite," said Michael Pearce, a senior U.S.
economist at Capital Economics in New York.
In a separate report on Thursday, the Labor Department said initial claims for state unemployment
benefits dropped 24,000 to a seasonally adjusted 209,000 for the week ended April 21, the lowest
level since December 1969. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast claims falling to
230,000 in the latest week.
The labor market is considered to be near or at full employment. The unemployment rate
is at a 17-year low of 4.1 percent, not far from the Federal Reserve's forecast of 3.8
percent by the end of this year.
"The tight labor market keeps getting tighter," said John Ryding, chief economist at RDQ Economics
in New York. "Companies are extremely reluctant to release labor, presumably because of the
difficulty in replacing workers."
A third report from the Commerce Department showed the goods trade deficit fell 10.3 percent
to $68.0 billion in March. Exports rose $3.4 billion to $140.1 billion last month, reflecting
a strengthening global economy and weak U.S. dollar. Imports fell $4.4 billion to $208.1
billion in March.
The department also reported that wholesale inventories rose 0.5 percent last month. Retail
inventories, however, fell 0.4 percent. The goods trade deficit and inventory data had
a marginal impact on first-quarter GDP estimates." Let us not forget how former President Barack
Hussein Obama once told us that the jobs lost were never going to make their way back from
oblivion.
I guess it was never the jobs that were never going to come back but instead the conditions
presidents such as Obama put on our economy that made it so jobs were non-existent. When
all you do is tax and regulate businesses to oblivion that's what happens, they stop
creating jobs, pack up and move to a more business-friendly environment. Not unlike
what's now happening to the state of California where the only businesses and people who care
to live there are somehow connected to either silicon valley or Hollywood.
Who would have thought it would take a brash outsider to bring America back, especially
after both sides of the political aisle told us we had to learn to live with the fact that
the United States isn't what it once was. Must be easy to come to terms with that when
you get elected to a position which pays $150k a year and 10 years later you end up being
worth over 10 million dollars.

BOMBSHELL Evidence How CIA Made Obama A US Citizen – DRAIN THE SWAMP!!!! - Duration: 14:04.
BOMBSHELL Evidence How CIA Made Obama A US Citizen – DRAIN THE SWAMP!!!!
Whistleblower Dennis Montgomery may have discovered the CIA and/or other government entities illegally
hacked into the Hawaii Department of Health records in an effort to search for birth records
on Barack Obama.
Investigators report government breaches began on November 14, 2008.
This was just after Obama's first presidential victory.
Those breaches continued through January 12, 2011 – some three months before the White
House issued a computerized version of what Obama claimed was the authentic long-form
version of his birth certificate from 1961.
Meanwhile, the mainstream media scoffed and laughed at anyone that dared to question the
authenticity of said document.
A database created in 2013 by Montgomery contained large sections of an electronic surveillance
database was provided to Michael Zullo, formerly the commander and chief investigator of the
Cold Case Posse (CCP), a special investigative group created in 2006 in the office of Joseph
M. Arpaio, formerly the sheriff in Maricopa County, an Arizona State Certified Law Enforcement
Agency, headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona.
It shows this database was created by the NSA as part of the NSA's illegal and highly
unconstitutional surveillance of American citizens in violation of their 4th amendment
rights under the label of Project Dragnet.
Dennis Montgomery is former U.S. intelligence contractor and he walked away with more than
600 million classified documents on no less than 47 hard drives from both the NSA and
the CIA.
His breach is considered even larger than that of Edward Snowden.
The evidence provided by Montgomery detailed warrantless collection of phone, financial
and personal data and the unmasking of identities in spy data about millions of Americans.
He has accused the Bureau of massive and flagrant amendment violations of the American people.
Among those 47 hard drives included information supplied to Zullo regarding Obama's fraudulent
birth certificate.
Montgomery also filed suit against the FBI, NSA, DOJ, and several other government agencies
in June 2017 for their illegal conducted surveillance of millions of American citizens for years,
as reported by AFF in June 2017.
Circa reported Montgomery divulged to the FBI "a pattern and practice of conducting
illegal, unconstitutional surveillance against millions of Americans, including prominent
Americans such as the chief justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, other justices, 156 judges,
prominent businessmen, and others such as Donald J. Trump, as well as Plaintiffs themselves."
As such Montgomery is represented by prominent Conservative attorney Larry Klayman of FreedomWorks
in U.S. District Court.
The case is being heard by the exact same federal judge who has already ruled that the
NSA's collection of data on Americans is a Fourth Amendment violation making for a
legal proceeding that will affect all Americans for the future.
With Montgomery's information in tow, Arpaio and Zullo held a press conference on December
15, 2016, in which the contents of a multiple year forensic investigation into the validity
of Obama's birth certificate was released.
The conclusion reached was that the Long-Form Birth Certificate released by Obama in April
2011 was indeed a forgery and the evidence they supplied strongly suggests CIA involvement
in the forgery with the following breaches of known Hawaiian IP addresses accessed by
known CIA IP addresses –
According to InfoWars.com –
The IP addresses, both from the Hawaii government offices breached and from the CIA proxy IP
addresses used in the breaches.
"Montgomery also traced the IP data paths of the breached servers and discovered on
a number of occasions information was sent from the breached Hawaii computers, only to
be routed to a server located in Jakarta, Indonesia," Zullo said.
From Indonesia, the data was sent back through the server in Jakarta, routed back to government
servers in the United States.
Montgomery claims the server used in Jakarta was operated by the CIA at the time the breaches
were executed."
Montgomery brought forward to Arpaio and Zullo the information presented here regarding the
CIA breaches of Hawaii government computers that Montgomery alleges was collected while
he was employed as a subcontractor for the NSA, working on PROJECT: SPEARIT and various
surveillance projects.
Court documents do verify Montgomery was contracted by the NSA, in part to develop computer breaching
software that has been utilized in government mass surveillance operations targeting American
citizens without legal justification.
While Montgomery's credibility has been called into question, Zullo maintains that
the amount of information provided by Montgomery related to Operation Dragnet was extraordinarily
voluminous and that Montgomery had shared information with investigators in 2013 that
is only now being revealed by media outlets.
Zullo claims to have received information from top officials with the Hawaii Department
of Health claiming prior to the release of the long Obama's Long-Form Birth Certificate
by the White House the Hawaii Department of Health was in the process of forging a birth
certificate for Obama.
Arpaio's investigators also revealed that this same source revealed the attending physician
named on the forged document was known to be deceased and was believed to have destroyed
all birth records after leaving practice making him an ideal candidate for forgers.
Zullo also claimed to have received information from two different hospital administrators
independent of one another regarding meetings held in 2008 as Obama was preparing for his
initial presidential bid where all hospitals on the island worked to identify which hospital
Obama was born in.
Both administrators attested to the fact no hospital in Hawaii could locate any records
to prove Ann Dunham Obama had been a patient, or that Barack Hussein Obama was born there.
Zullo states –
"Queens Hospital was the hospital originally named by the Obama family as the birth hospital,
but when it developed that Queens did not have records of Obama's birth, the family
shifted to story to claim Obama was born at Kapiolani Hospital.
Queens Hospital quickly reported publicly that Obama was not born in their hospital.
The admission of Queens Hospital that no birth record existed presented a serious problem
for the already belabored Obama birth narrative.
Kapiolani refused to comment neither confirming nor denying Kapiolani Hospital was Obama's
birth hospital.
To date, Kapiolani has not produced a single shred of evidence that any original birth
records exist, nor has Kapiolani Hospital ever produced any supporting documentation
or released any information that proves Stanley Ann Dunham was a patient at Kapiolani in August
1961 who gave birth to a son, Barack Obama, supposedly born on Aug. 4, 1961."
InfoWars.com also reveals that Zullo went on to point out that a written statement of
former Hawaii Director of Public Health Dr. Chiyome Fukino issued in October 2008 cast
further doubt that an original 1961 LFBC for Obama ever existed in the Hawaii Department
of Health archives.
On Oct. 31, 2008, Fukino issued a statement that read in part:
"Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawaii, along with the Registrar
of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital
records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of Health
has Sen. Obama's original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies
and procedures.
No state official, including Governor Linda Lingle, has ever instructed that this vital
record be handled in a manner different from any other vital record in the possession of
the State of Hawaii."
Zullo was not convinced, stating –
"That statement would indicate, if true, that Fukino simply walked in to the file vault
at the Hawaii Department of Health, went to the shelf containing the bound book volume
holding some 500 certificates including Obama's, located it inside that bound book, touched
it, and returned the bound volume back to its proper place, back on the shelf along
with 500 others.
The CIA breach would also enable the undetectable insertion of fraudulent digital information
of a fictitious birth event to be surreptitiously implanted into the Hawaii Department of Health
vital records computers database.Once the fictitious record has been created that would
allow an unsuspecting clerk to simply locate the fraudulent record in the computer database
and print a computer-generated Short-Form Birth Certificate (SFBC) without ever verifying
the existence of the original Long Form Certificate (LFBC) in the file room vault.
Hawaii did in fact originally produce a Short-Form Birth Certificate in 2008.
In an attempt to quell the growing controversy and to satisfy the questions surrounding the
Obama birth narrative, a Short-Form was released in 2008 during Obama's presidential campaign.
However, that was a digital record and not an original Long Form Birth Certificate.
This did not satisfy the growing number of skeptics.
In various discussions with Montgomery, he suggested 'three-letter agencies' had
the ability to not only hack into a computer network unnoticed and to download information
out of that computer network undetected, but also had the ability to upload information
into a computer, again undetected.
That upload capability would allow the implantation of completely fictitious or altered information
at will.
Once implanted, this would grant an unsuspecting clerk the ability to create and issue a Short-Form
Birth Certificate that was retrieved from Hawaii Department of Health legitimate computers
in accordance with Hawaii Department of Health procedures and customary practices."
Montgomery turned this information over to the FBI along with 600 million records illegally
obtained by the federal government for an immunity deal 2 years ago.
Zullo went on to explain –
"The Obama birth certificate information was included in the information Montgomery
turned over to the FBI.
The FBI has done nothing with Montgomery's information for more than two years.
That's when the White House released to the public via the internet a computer-generated
PDF File of a purported Long-Form Birth Certificate claiming to be a copy of Obama's birth records
located in the Hawaii Department of Health vault on April 27, 2011.
What the White House released was not a physical hard copy document.
It was not a copy of any verified authentic document, it was absolutely nothing.
It was a computer-generated PDF file containing a copy of something that had its metadata
erased from the electronic file, making it impossible to determine origin and authenticity
of the file.
This PDF file cannot be relied on as proof a birth event in any legal setting," Zullo
insisted.
"It is not paper, it was created in cyberspace and resides in a computer.
On April 27, 2011, Obama showed the nation and the world absolutely nothing."
Arpaio and Zullo held a press conference showing Obama's birth certificate where a forensic
expert explained it contained "nine points of forgery," establishing that Obama's
Long-Form computer-generated birth certificate released by the White House on April 27, 2011,
had been copied
from Johanna Ah'Nee's birth certificate.

U.S. considers Libya's denuclearization model for North Korea: Bolton - Duration: 2:11.
U.S. National Security Advisor John Bolton says Washington is considering Libya's model

In an interview with ABC News,... Pompeo said he sees a real opportunity to make a satisfactory
deal with Pyongyang.
"The objective remains the same: complete, verifiable, irreversible denuclearization.
That's been the administration's goal.
President Trump has put economic pressure on the North Koreans and it appears to have
given us this opening, this real opportunity for something that would be transformative
for the world if we can achieve it."
Pompeo also highlighted Washington's obligation to engage in diplomacy with North Korea and
seek a peaceful resolution to protect its people from the regime's nuclear threats.
He added that he had in-depth discussions with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on denuclearization
when the two met in Pyongyang earlier this month.

Report: U.S. Posts A Positive Number It Hasn't Seen In Almost 50 Years, Trump Scores Huge
After a year and a half of obstruction and bellyaching, the democrats cannot wipe away
the facts.
When Donald Trump announced his candidacy for president, career politicians sneered;
both democrats and insider republicans questioned his ability.
How could anyone outside of politics expect to help the country?
What does he know?
Well, it seems like he knows quite a bit.
While Trump is not a career politician, he is a massively successful businessman, and
his keen leadership skills and negotiation has helped our country recover from a dark
period.
The economy is doing incredibly well; in fact, much better than any "expert" predicted.
After Obama swore jobs would never come back, guess what?
They're coming back.
Companies are investing in the United States like never before.
American products are selling around the world, thanks to trade deals.
It has resulted in jobless claims plummeting, as more Americans are back to work.
We haven't seen unemployment this low since 1969!From Yahoo:
"The number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits fell to the lowest level in more
than 48 years last week and the goods trade deficit narrowed sharply in March amid strong
export growth…
The anticipated slowdown in economic growth is likely to be temporary against the backdrop
of a robust labor market that is expected to underpin consumer spending.
The economy is also expected to get a boost from the Trump administration's $1.5 trillion
income tax cut package as well as increased government spending, which should also support
business investment.
In a separate report on Thursday, the Labor Department said initial claims for state unemployment
benefits dropped 24,000 to a seasonally adjusted 209,000 for the week ended April 21, the lowest
level since December 1969."
We are seeing amazing statistics like this come out almost every day, and many liberals
said it would never happen.
(They didn't even WANT to see this happen).Under Obama, our country was in trouble.
His terrible leadership and decision-making caused the U.S. to bleed jobs.
Foreign countries walked all over us, thanks to bad deals like NAFTA, TPP, and the Paris
Climate Accord.
On top of that, Obama hiked taxes and burdened companies with massive regulation.
That all amounts to shrinking businesses and fewer jobs.
It was a deliberate plan by globalists to destroy America, because a weak United States
would have been easier to exploit.
But strong, prosperous Americans will not be cowed!
Under President Trump, everything has changed: he is putting America first.
The tax bill is having a tremendous effect, and he has slashed hurtful regulations.
Businesses are no longer being punished for investing the in U.S.

U.S Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley Addresses the UN Security Council Breaking Fox News - Duration: 6:56.
I have spoken many times about my strong belief that this monthly debate should
be used to shed light on the many different sources of conflict and
instability in the Middle East there are unfortunately many to choose from
some of which prompt disagreements in the Security Council but today I want to
address an issue about which there should be no disagreement that issue is
the use of innocent children women and men as human shields tragically this
outrageous practice is reaching epic proportions in the region a week ago
today the European Parliament passed a resolution condemning Hamas for its use
of human shields we were pleased to see this action it's difficult to think of a
more cowardly act even for a terrorist than hiding behind innocent civilians
the use of human shields deliberately advantages those with no regard for
human life and disadvantages those who seek to
minimize civilian casualties and the use of human shields isn't confined to any
one conflict it is present across the Middle East in virtually every conflict
Isis routinely used human shields in Iraq Isis fighters took advantage of the
presence of civilians in their homes their hospitals their schools and their
mosques when they were forced out of their positions Isis Isis went from door
to door rounding up families and forcing them to accompany their fighters as they
evacuated their locations Hezbollah has also endangered civilians by positioning
its fighters and its weapons among them its terrorists use schools hospitals and
apartment buildings to shield its war arsenal in Lebanon in the course of its
massive arms build-up Hezbollah has turned Lebanese villages into military
compounds stationing weapons depots rocket launchers and command posts in
around and the civilian population in blatant
defiance of Security Council resolution 1701 hundreds of Lebanese villages are
home to Hezbollah rockets and fighters there are press reports that every third
or fourth house in south Lebanon is in some way being used by Hezbollah to
shield its activities another example is Yemen the United Nations has reported
that Houthi militants have used Yemeni civilians as human shields
lastly Hamas has exploited and endangered the very Palestinian people
it claims to represent by locating rock rocket launches near her rocket
launchers near schools apartment buildings hotels churches and UN
facilities it's been less than a year since a mosque terror tunnel was
discovered underneath two Unruh schools in Gaza that means UN facilities were
being used as a cover for Hamas 'as military infrastructure notice the
threads of commonality that run through these examples the first is Iran as
usual Iran is the patron and protector of many of these groups that fight from
behind the bodies of innocent civilians groups in Iran has sponsored or
supported have perfected the tactic of using human shields and inspired others
to do the same of course this is part of Iran's overarching efforts to
destabilize the region efforts that include illegal weapon shipments to
Yemen an invading Israeli airspace with armed drones from Syrian territory the
second common thread is the dramatic risk to civilians for those willing to
sacrifice the innocent there is no way to lose innocent civilians either
provide cover for military infrastructure or they become victims
that rally the international media to their cause either way innocent
civilians get caught in the crossfire and explode exploited for illegitimate
military and political purposes all decent nations and responsible
militaries seek to minimize civilian casualties in warfare those who want to
reduce civilian casualties in the Middle East must focus their attention on the
actors including non-state actors who intentionally keep their military
infrastructure in close proximity to civilians the use of civilians to
intentionally shield otherwise lawful military targets from attack is a war
crime as is so often the case it is the most vulnerable who pay the price for
the use of human shields commandeering homes puts families who are already in
war zones at additional risk locating rocket launchers next to schools
eliminate safe places for children putting command posts in the hospital
shows complete disregard for the sick the injured and the elderly each time
Isis Hezbollah or Hamas succeeds in using a village or a family or a child
to protect its terrorist operations the use of this grotesque tactic grows it is
a win for the groups that are willing to endanger civilian populations in order
to accomplish their political objectives and it is a loss for the people who play
by the rules who seek to minimize rather than maximize civilian casualties anyone
who cares about the safety of Lebanese families should condemn this practice
anyone who cares about the lives of Yemenis or Palestinians should demand
accountability for the militants who exploit them anyone who truly cares
about children in Gaza should insist that Hamas immediately stop using
children as cannon fodder in its conflict with Israel this is an issue
that transcends the usual debates in this chamber it is quite simply an issue
of decency humanity itself loses when the barbaric practice of human shields
is tolerated and unanswered for humanity's
sake the Security Council must rise up to address this threat thank you

Mobile carriers T-Mobile, Sprint agree to US$26 bil. merger - Duration: 0:41.
After years of back and forth, U.S. telecoms giant T-Mobile announced Sunday that it has
finally agreed to buy rival Sprint.
The all-stock merger is worth 26 billion U.S. dollars and needs approval from America's
antitrust regulators.
Pundits believe the deal will go through because it will create thousands of jobs and also
help the U.S. beat China to creating the next generation mobile network.
However critics say reduced competition in the American telecoms market could end up
hurting consumers.
If the merger is confirmed, then T-Mobile will be positioned as a fierce rival to Verizon
and AT&T.

'Caravan migrants' reach U.S.-Mexico border - Duration: 2:05.
Hundreds of people from the so-called "Central American migrant caravan" have reached the
U.S.-Mexico border to ask America for asylum.
The group's month-long journey through Mexico had drawn a furious response from President
Trump Ro Aram reports.
About 400 migrants from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador are at their final stretch
of a month-long trip.
They reached Friendship Park in the border city Tijuana on Sunday, with about 200 of
them seeking asylum.
They were welcomed by U.S. immigration activists rallying on the San Diego side concerned for
their safety.
"These people have come from Central America.
They are fleeing really for their lives and we are country which has a long history, a
very mixed history, but a long history of receiving people.
And I'm very worried about what is going to happen to them when they attempt to apply
for asylum, when they cross the border, because they have the legal right under international
law to do that."
The migrants were hoping to get safe passage to the United States, but faced trouble upon
arrival as U.S. immigration officials announced that the San Diego crossing was already at
full capacity.
Border officials also warned that those whose asylum cases were not strong enough would
face detention or deportation.
Organizers and activists lashed out the authorities saying they had ample time to prepare for
the influx of migrants, which they knew was coming.
The migrant caravan had drawn ire from President Trump and his Cabinet members, who called
the group a threat to the United States.
Trump pressured Mexico to stop the convoy by threatening to pull out of the North American
FTA if it failed to do so.
The migrants have a tough wait ahead in what is already a very strict U.S. immigration
policy.
More than three-quarters of immigrants seeking asylum from El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala
between 2011 and 2016 lost their cases.

Pastor Rick Joyner ‒ Worse Corruption In US History ‒ Prophecy 2018 - Duration: 13:52.
welcome to today's rent and we have you
know some very serious stuff to talk
about today and what I think could be
the worst corruption in US history and
I'm not gonna you know it's not just
because of what was done which was
terrible unbelievably terrible but how
it was a corruption at the highest
levels it seems like in our government
at the time that is now being exposed
it's being exposed with real evidence
hard evidence but what is being exposed
is I think now the worst corruption but
the most damaging because it puts us
security our country security
so at risk and it was done for pay outs
now you know a lot of spies have done
that taking money to give away our
secrets but this was done by the Obama
administration a Hillary Clinton the
emails are out and I realized the
media's hardly touching this it right
now they're gonna have to I think this
has the potential would be much bigger
than Watergate going to the depths a
goes to the top of the FBI the
Department of Justice unbelievable what
is just being revealed came through the
Freedom of Information Act in the
revelation and many of the emails that
were just released that point to Hillary
Clinton receiving millions of dollars in
payments to the Clinton Foundation I
don't see any way you cannot connect
those to her approval of selling the
ERD of the u.s. uranium stocks to Russia
I mean if there's been any Russian
collusion to impact our country I can't
imagine anything worse than this you
know I mean she knew obviously our
government knew top people in the FBI
knew about the Russian attempt to corner
the world uranium market and what is
uranium that's what's used in all
nuclear power used in all nuclear
weapons and for our country our
Secretary of State approve this
president Obama approved the sale of the
majority the overwhelming majority of US
uranium to Russia and we knew that had
happened you know and everybody had
conjectured about these big donations
that the Clinton Foundation had received
just before that what turns out to have
come from the uranium interest in Russia
and now their emails are pointing
directly at this I mean I don't know any
other way to say it our country was sold
out for a few million dollars by someone
who was running for president this is
unbelievable I mean you couldn't if you
made a movie like this nobody would go
see it nobody believed it it's too
far-fetched but they're sitting on proof
of this and not only that Muller who was
the head of the FBI at the time
obviously had knowledge of this so did
the Deputy Attorney General who
appointed Muller to do the investigation
of Trump and the Russian collisions they
knew about this unbelievable collusion
between Hillary and the Russians and sat
on it and did nothing
not only that proof came out the
call me the the head of the FBI who
exonerated Hillary his you know said he
wasn't gonna prosecute her started
writing this letter of exoneration the
speech to exonerate her months before
the investigation had even been done
before he'd even interviewed her you
know this is corruption on level I mean
this would be bizarre in a what we used
to call banana republics you wonder if
they haven't exceeded us now on justice
now I know some of them really bad the
meltdown going on in Venezuela no we
haven't had that yet thank God but how
could something like this have happened
in our government i to me it is shocking
that muller did not recuse himself
immediately as the lead investigator of
the trump collusion supposedly with the
russians he is no zero credibility now
that i think he has some criminal
potential criminal charges that could
come against it it was his job as the
head of the FBI to defend us of things
like this and they all sworn oath to
defend our country to defend our country
and to do something like this and to
cover it up not do anything about it
that is the worst at best the worst
dereliction of duty you could imagine it
worse it is treason high-level treason
that didn't just jeopardize a few people
it didn't it jeopardized our whole
country and the like I said the
assistant attorney general who appointed
mother obviously had full knowledge of
all this that had gone on between the
Clinton Foundation Hillary Clinton and
the Obama administration approving the
sale of our uranium to Russia
hey this is unbelievable it really makes
you think yet I really don't like the
conspiracy theories theorist I don't
like to be around them there tend to be
paranoid people and I just don't like to
go there
but this kind of stuff and it's not
conjecture they've got the emails they
got that everything that that proves the
knowledge of these people in these
things that you wonder this deep state
if were they really trying to destroy
our republic were they really
intentionally trying to weaken the
United States to the point where it
would have meant the end of our Republic
the end of our democracy you can't help
but wonder that if you look at these
things now you know one thing to our
present justice department I tell you
Jeff Sessions Attorney General Sessions
needs to Unruh queues himself
immediately if Bernstein who appointed
Muller and Muller do not resign right
away Jeff Sessions he can unruhe queues
himself and say I'm coming back in and
those people need to be fired instantly
they have zero they're gonna have zero
credibility and there may be some
criminal investigation there should be
criminal serious criminal investigations
going on of these people but now you can
understand why after Trump was elected
which they didn't expect what happened
when it did happen they saw how
vulnerable if this stuff came to light
would it would implicate them of and
that's why I think they tried a major
diversion major in run to get everybody
believed in Trump was in collusion with
the Russians when in fact they were the
ones this is a hypocrisy on an
unbelievable level but more than that it
was jeopardizing our country our
security the very security of our
country the way they did so listen we
got to pray for our country we've got to
pray for the Trump administration we got
to pray for our leaders we got to pray
for our Department of Justice if we're
gonna have justice in America
if we're ever gonna I tell you justice
in America there's been a meltdown
our justice system is in worse shape
than the federal government and you know
what kind of shape it's in as
dysfunctional wid as it is in our
Justice Department I think is a much
worse shape now all of this I believe is
the work of the Holy Spirit how I think
he is the Spirit of Truth one of his
jobs is to illuminate bring to light the
things that were hidden when the things
he was sent to us for we started praying
years ago many years ago for the Holy
Spirit to come upon our country and
start illuminating that things that were
hidden and done in darkness the way
darkness was operating in our government
I think this is all this is the answer
to those prayers but I also think yeah
for me personally I thought Hillary was
I would just be kind and say a real real
danger to our country I never dreamed
anything like this
I thought Comey was something's really
wacko about the whole way he's handling
this and everybody talks about his
integrity and everything the way he
handled the whole Clinton thing and says
something's really messed up there
everybody saw that you couldn't help but
not see that but I never dreamed it be
anything on this level and this serious
so you know like I said you be hard to
find all this on the media Fox News has
been covering it some on Fox News some
are not touching it so Stuart Varney I
think Lou Dobbs Hannity some of these
they're they're going after it big-time
as they should they've had many guests
on and and who is clear about everything
I'm saying even more so than I've been
on this rant but they the rest of media
is not touching they're gonna have to
this I believe this is going to be way
bigger than Watergate and it's gonna
make the media that delayed so long in
covering it
it's gonna hurt them even worse this is
so serious what has been done to our
country and what is being done and there
needs to be an in-depth not just
investigation but a rooting out of those
who would be so subversive even at the
top levels and we need a quality
Integris FBI it is critical to our
security but I tell you it's gonna take
decades for the FBI to recover its
reputation for integrity after this kind
of thing everything that happened under
Comey and Muller it looks like is it
could take decades well I'm just praying
that God will raise up somebody if not
me I don't know the president head of
the FBI where he is or what's gone maybe
he's the one I pray is or whoever is the
one would be sent and get that position
that could restore the integrity of our
FBI we're in desperate need of it and
the Department of Justice that is right
now the Department of injustice and
coverup and also it looks like serious
levels of treason against our country I
don't know how you could see it in the
other way so this is a call to prayer
pray for our leaders pray for our
country I think it's gonna be resolved
well I think we're gonna get all that
back I think we're gonna get everything
back on the right foundation it's gonna
take this kind of shake-up but I tell
you there's gonna be some turbulence
till we get there there's gonna be some
upheaval but now you can really
understand their unbelievable
unrelenting and it looked like madness
and they're trying to connect Trump to
the Russians to steer and divert
everything away from their collusion
with the Russians that now we have proof
of unbelievable proof of unbelievable
betrayal of those who were seeking the
highest office in the land unbelievable
thank you for listening to today's Rana
appreciate those of you who don't turn
it off when we have to talk about hard
issues you know you know those who only
want to have their ears tickled as the
Apostle Paul said you know I understand
they can't stand these kind of things
and they'll react to them that's okay I
understand
that's going to happen doesn't bother me
at all but for word to be illuminated
like it is that gives me hope it's going
to be dealt with we're gonna see a
victory over these things in our country
and in our government thank you for
listening

Oh Jung-hee has the details.
It was phone call after phone call over the weekend for South Korean President Moon Jae-in,...
sharing the outcome of the inter-Korean summit with the U.S. and nearby countries.
The relay phone conversations began on Saturday night when President Moon talked with U.S.
President Donald Trump for over an hour.
President Trump said Seoul and Pyongyang have made a significant progress in their relations...
and President Moon replied... it was all possible thanks to President Trump's strong support.
He added the inter-Korean summit lays the groundwork for success in President Trump's
own summit with the North Korean leader.
"President Trump said it's very good news for not only the two Koreas but for the whole
world that they reaffirmed the goal of achieving a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula through complete
denuclearization.
The leaders reaffirmed that their governments will continue to coordinate closely to achieve
the complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula."
President Trump said he's on the same page with Seoul and Pyongyang... on their agreement
to formally end the Korean War... and expressed anticipation for his meeting with the North
Korean leader.
On Sunday morning, President Moon had a phone conversation with Japanese Prime Minister
Shinzo Abe.
"Prime Minister Abe praised the fact that the leaders of South and North Korea reaffirmed
the goal of complete denuclearization on the Korean Peninsula through the Panmunjom Declaration.
He said that North Korea's moves are especially forward-looking and hopes the declaration
leads to specific actions."
The Japanese leader said Tokyo is willing to talk with Pyongyang to normalize relations
and settle the affairs of the past,... and President Moon told Abe that North Korean
leader Kim Jong-un feels the same.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said the results of the inter-Korean summit will form
a solid foundation for building an unwavering peace on the Korean Peninsula... and hailed
President Moon's accomplishment of something he said was very difficult to achieve under
complex circumstances.

President Donald Trump discusses the relationship between the U.S. and North Korea - Duration: 4:18.
Thank You mr. president Chancellor Merkel asked a couple
questions of the president first I want to ask you to step over it's crowded in
here I want to ask you about a couple comments that you made in the Oval
Office earlier in which you said about North Korea that they've played the u.s.
in the past like a fiddle but that's not going to happen to us do you as it
relates to hopefully getting peace on the Korean Peninsula denuclearization of
the Korean Peninsula do you feel as if you need to be the closer in that deal
do you want to be the closer and that deal or do you think that's something
that is shared by all of the major stakeholders all of the the world
leaders within that region and secondly indulge us if you might you said that
the relationship with North Korea has been strong or one of the words you use
have you spoken with Kim jong-un himself or do you plan on speaking with that I
want to comment on that do you plan on think we have a very good
working relationship we're setting up a meeting
things have changed very radically from a few months ago
you know the name-calling and a lot of other things we we get a kick every once
in a while out of the fact that I'll be watching people that fail so badly over
the last 25 years explaining to me how to make a deal with North Korea I get a
big big kick out of that but we are doing very well I think that
something very dramatic could happen they're treating us with great respect
and you know what's going on with South Korea and I think president moon of
South Korea was very generous and saying that we helped make the Olympics a great
success because of the fact that as you know there was a tremendous animosity
there was a tremendous problem going on and all of a sudden people started
buying tickets because a whole different feeling when North said we'd love to go
to the Olympics so a lot of good things are happening with respect to North
Korea President Obama told me when I had the one meeting with him he said that's
your biggest problem that's going to be the most difficult thing you have and
honestly I wish it was handled I wish it were handled by another
administration years ago I'm not just talking about President Obama I'd go
back to any administration you want but over the last 25 years this should have
been handled a long time ago not now this should not have been left for me to
handle but we will handle it we're handling it well and hopefully there'll
be peace for North Korea South Korea Germany I mean everything is included
Japan the chancel has been very helpful in the maximum pressure campaign as I
said really very helpful so have many other nations President Xi of China has
been really good at the border everyone's surprised at how tight he
clamped down everyone said that he'd just talked about it he wouldn't do it
what he did it and he did it out of a relationship that we have and also out
of the fact that we're negotiating trade deals and I think that's also very
important to him hopefully we'll come up with something that's good for both
countries so I think some very good things can happen with respect to North
Korea we're setting up meetings now we're down to two countries as to a site
and we'll let you know what that site is do you have a question for the
Chancellor just just to follow up or quickly do you do you feel like it's
your responsibility for this to eventually get settled between North and
South Korea I think I have a responsibility I think other presidents
should have done it I think the responsibility has fallen on the
shoulders of the president of the United States and I think we have I think I
have a responsibility to see if I can do it and if I can't do it it'll be a very
tough time for a lot of countries and a lot of people it's certainly something
that I hope I can do for the world this is beyond the United States this is
a world problem and it's something that I hope I'm able to do for the world

Trump's Attacks On The Press Cause US To Drop To 45th In Press Freedom Index - Duration: 2:54.
According to the latest Press Freedom Index by the group Reporters Without Borders, the
United States continues to fall in their ranking amongst other countries in the world of press
freedom.
And the reason that we've been falling for the last two years are because, according
to Reporters Without Borders, the constant attacks on the press coming from Donald Trump.
He is, what they describe, a media bashing enthusiast and that is having a chilling effect
on journalism and the media here in the United States.
ut again, as usual, we can't just attribute this to Donald Trump.
It was actually about a year ago that the RNC, Republican National Committee, announced
that their plan for the 2018 midterm was the run against the media.
They didn't want to talk about issues.
They didn't want to run against democrats.
They were just gonna paint the media as being wholly anti-republican, and surely that was
gonna get the public on their side.
Of course, that seemed to backfire when it turns out that more Americans trust the media
than trust Donald Trump, but nonetheless, that was their strategy, and that is still
the Republican Party strategy today.
They want to attack the media.
They want to go after the press.
They want to go after journalists.
They want to go after the people in the press briefings asking the tough questions of people
like Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
They don't want to have to answer them, so they go after the media.
And what does that do?
It forces the media to report stories that don't have all the facts, because the White
House won't give it to them.
Or, they scrap the story all together because there's nothing to go on without an answer
from the administration.
That hurts press freedom in the United States, and it does start with Donald Trump, but it
is not limited to him.
His entire administration, the entire platform of the Republican Party is to go after the
media.
But, unfortunately, they don't go after the media for the things they should be going
after them for, like taking all that corporate money and then burying stories about how horrible
those corporations are.
Instead, they're going after them for some falsified view that they have that the media
is out to get them.
The media, for the most part, as long as you're avoiding talking about corporations, is trying
to tell the truth and just educate the public.
They're doing a poor job of it on their own, but Donald Trump is making sure that press
in the United States, number one, is not only not free, but number two, can't do their job
properly and therefore the public might eventually lose trust in them.
Luckily, the American public, at this point, is losing their trust in Donald Trump a hell
of a lot faster than they're losing their faith in the media.
