Donald Trump suggests Kim Jong Un is ALIVE saying ‘I wish him well’

President Donald Trump made cryptic comments at the White House Monday indicating that North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un is alive – while refusing to reveal what he says he knows about Kim’s condition.

He was asked about Kim’s well-being at a press conference about conflicting reports on Kim’s status – including some that the leader of the hermetic nation has died, with reports out of South Korea that he is alive. 

‘I can’t tell you exactly. Yes I do have a very good idea,’ Trump responded when asked about it. ‘But I can’t talk about it. I just wish him well. I’ve had a very good relationship with Kim Jong-un,’ Trump said.

Then the president defended his own policy direct engagement with North Korea, although he dodged an initial question about whether Kim has responded to his March letter. 

‘If I weren’t president, you would have been in war with Korea,’ Trump claimed. ‘You would have been in war with north korea if i wasn’t president. That i can tell you. He expected that. That i can tell you. I hope he’s fine. I do know how he’s doing relatively speaking. We will see you’ll probably be hearing in the not too distant future,’ Trump teased.

The president also jumped to comment on Kim when being asked about what a what a South Korean official said about the subject on Fox News. ‘He didn’t say anything last Saturday,’ Trump said of Kim. ‘Nobody knows where he is so he obviously couldn’t have said it,’ Trump added. 

‘This is breaking news, that Kim Jong-un made a statement on Saturday – I don’t think so,’ Trump said.

Rumors have swirled over Kim’s health since he failed to attend a ruling party showpiece on April 15, and he has not been seen in public since. The event was to honor Kim’s grandfather, Kim Il Sung.

There were reports that he underwent a cardiovascular procedure or had decamped to avoid the coronavirus.    

There were also rumors Kim could have been injured during a North Korean missile launch he attended earlier this month.

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs NewsColony Perhaps it’s appropriate that public notices of the COVID-19 crisis began as an ableist cruelty. Health officials assured the nation that only the elderly and those with chronic health conditions would be seriously affected; most Americans (i.e., the normal people) would have only mild symptoms and be fine. x A friendly reminder: people who will be high-risk patients if we get coronavirus can hear you when you reassure everyone we’re the only ones who might die. — Alexandra Brodsky (@azbrodsky) February 29, 2020 Soon after the announcement of those assurances, the likelihood of high-risk people surviving was further limited by the people more likely to be fine. Shopping frenzies cleared stores of essential supplies needed everyday by many disabled people, like thermometers, hand wipes, masks, and IV infusion supplies. Accustomed to their needs ...
