#BREAKING BADABOUM genre j'ai 1 paquet de copies à finir et ils me balancent ça 1 #dimanche...#Stone, le conseiller de l'ombre/visiteur du soir de #Trump, avoue qu'il a rencontré 1 Russe en 2016 lui ayant offert des infos sales sur #Clinton... washingtonpost.com/politics/trump…
2) #Breaking...Alors, déjà, il y a plein de choses à dire.D'1 part, #Stone affirmait jusqu'alors qu'il n'eut jamais de contact avec 1 Russe durant la campagne 2016 alors qu'il était 1"homme de l'ombre" de #Trump...et il l'a répété au comité du renseignement de la Chambre. Gênant.
3) #Breaking Et d'autre part, c'est le dircom de la campagne #Trump, Caputo, qui a arrangé la rencontre de #Stone avec le Russe Greenberg en mai 2016. Et devinez quoi, lui aussi ne s'est pas souvenu de cette rencontre face aux enquêteurs du Congrès...Gênant (bis).

Ésta es "LA FOTO DEL SIGLO"
He leído tanto acerca de la #SingaporeSummit que creo merece un comentario de lo que según mi óptica pasó en #Singapur
1) Para empezar los que dijeron que era imposible que esto sucediera pues les tengo noticias: "Trump did it again"
2) He leído que muchos dicen: 'el chinito se arrepintió" otros dicen: "Trump tuvo que ceder al botón de Kim" en fin; cada quien aprecia lo que percibe según su propia red de conceptos y conocimientos. Los términos de la cumbre no han sido detallados pero...
Para mí las fotos son un libro abierto; Aqui aunque Kim está en la mejor posición "para la foto" donde es importante el ángulo, la ubicación y planimetría, (en términos simples) «parado en la izquierda» para que en el “handshake” Kim Jong retratara como el líder dominante

8-9 months ago, #Trump said he’d destroy #NorthKorea.. today, he is giving #KimJongUn - the leader of a truly horrific, horrendously brutal regime - the greatest opportunity he could have dreamed of. #SingaporeSummit

That’s what you get when vanity drives your foreign policy.
#Trump got out an iPad & showed #KimJongUn a fake movie trailer showing them both as the bearers of world peace.

- “Two men, two leaders, one destiny…”

I kid you not.

Acc. to the @nytimes, this isn't a Chinese proverb at all.

In fact, it may originate in #America.

1) President Donald Trump’s meeting with North Korea’s Kim Jong Un marks an opportunity for the world that only comes about every generation or so – the opportunity to completely change the direction of world events.

2) The last time this occurred was in 1986 when President Reagan met with Mikhail Gorbachev. America and the USSR were at extremely heightened tensions.
3) Before that it was when President Eisenhauer and Soviet Leader Nikita Khrushchev met in 1959 only to have the U2 spy plane incident a few months later negate any thawing of the Cold War.

This is pretty remarkable. The Korean Central News Agency, North Korea's state-run news outlet, has announced Kim Jong Un left the country and arrived in Singapore, and flew on a Chinese plane. kcna.kp (link isn't always reliable) #trumpkimsummit #singaporesummit
As of yesterday, KCNA had no substantive reports about the US-NK summit in Singapore since May 24. The rest of the world breathlessly reported summit was cancelled, then back on. From KCNA, nada.
The top story for over the weekend remained Kim Jong Un's visit to a snazzy new seafood restaurant in Pyongyang. There were reports on Singapore's foreign minister visiting NK, no reason was given. latimes.com/world/asia/la-…
