Once again, he throws our intelligence agencies under Kim’s bus.

The president responded to reports that Kim Jong Un’s brother had been an American asset by reassuring the strongman he would not allow such spying in the future.

> [@](#):

> Two accounts, a new book by the Washington Post reporter Anna Fifield and a Wall Street Journal story, report that Kim’s brother Kim Jong Nam was a CIA informant. Kim Jong Nam was killed in a shocking chemical-weapons attack in the Kuala Lumpur airport in February 2017. Trump was asked about the revelation as he left the White House for a trip to Iowa, and his answer was jarring.
> 
> “I see that, and I just received a beautiful letter from Kim Jong Un,” Trump said. “I think the relationship is very well, but I appreciated the letter. I saw the information about the CIA with regard to his brother or half brother, and I would tell him that would not happen under my auspices. I wouldn’t let that happen under my auspices. I just received a beautiful letter from Kim Jong Un.”

The question is “still drunk” or “already drunk”? And which is better.

I guess instead of subpoenas, Congressional Democrats should just request that foreign governments hack into our system and provide all the requested documents to them.

Only in regard to his own opponents. If, say, Biden were given, oh… a hooker pee tape by some… unnamed foreign security service, he’d be all over it like stink on shit.

Gee, I expected to see Donnie’s face painted on the side of it. That’s next after he’s reelected and becomes [del]Dictator[/del] President for Life, I guess.

Well, it would seem that the new 'do is based heavily on the scheme used for Trump’s [personal aircraft](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/donald-trumps-private-plane-air-force-one-950994), with the colors inverted.

Guess Raymond Loewy’s classic mid-60s design wasn’t imperial-looking enough.
