President Donald Trump declared he would reverse new sanctions on North Korea that his administration rolled out just a day before.


“It was announced today by the U.S. Treasury that additional large scale Sanctions would be added to those already existing Sanctions on North Korea,” Trump tweeted.

 “I have today ordered the withdrawal of those additional Sanctions!”
In a follow-up statement explaining the reversal, press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said, "President Trump likes Chairman Kim and he doesn’t think these sanctions will be necessary."

President Trump knows that sanctions cripple the economy of NK, a move that will not bring peace as he desires. 
Just a thought.

Police in Germany arrested ten people on suspicion of planning a terror attack. The arrests were made after some 200 police officers carried out raids in the states of Hesse and Rhineland-Palatinate.
The men had plotted to "kill as many 'non-believers' as possible" using a vehicle and guns, prosecutors said.
A 21-year-old man from Offenbach and two 31-year-old brothers from Wiesbaden are the main suspects.
"They had already made contact with different arms dealers, rented a large vehicle and collected financial assets to use for the purchase of guns and the execution of the planned murders," a spokeswoman for the prosecutor's office said.
The men have been detained on charges of terror-financing and criminal conspiracy.
Germany has been on high alert following several jihadist attacks in recent years.
The most deadly was in December 2016 when a man drove a lorry into a crowded Christmas market in Berlin, killing 12 people.

Justice Department officials notified Congress that they had received Mueller’s report. Barr is expected to summarize the findings for lawmakers as early as this weekend.
The special counsel has not recommended any further indictments.
A furious political reaction from the Democrats vying for the presidential nomination in 2020 demanding a public release of the findings.

Mueller’s report was delivered Friday afternoon to Rosenstein’s office at Justice Department headquarters.

The Comic Media now have three days to spin the wheels with their consultants and panels for something with no materials as usual.

"I'll change my name to Amazon Cuomo if that's what it takes," New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo told reporters at an event, referring to his determination to land Amazon's second headquarters. 

New York state will provide Amazon up to $1.7 billion in grants and tax breaks to lure the major online retailer and cloud-computing giant to the Long Island City neighborhood of Queens, making it the largest incentive package ever provided to a private company by the state. New York City is set to provide $1.3 billion in tax breaks on top of the state's incentive package.

“I say, there is plenty of money in this world, plenty of money in this country. But it's in the wrong hands,” New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) declared.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the Massachusetts Democrat who is running for president in 2020, has proposed a plan to break up the largest US tech companies, including Amazon, Google, and Facebook, her campaign announced

So, from one side the Dems dyeing to give the incentive to the largest cooperation in the world and to the other end Warren is trying to run on breaking large organization instead of using anti trust laws.

Is the money really in the wrong hand or we have some misguided politicians looking after themselves? Just a thought.

Four decades after the attack on Dec. 9, 1982, when a woman was raped and stabbed in her home in Baton Rouge, La. A different man, Archie Williams, went to prison, even though it was known at the trial that the fingerprints were not his.  
A technician in a crime lab ran the fingerprints collected at the scene of a rape through a national database and established a match with someone else.  
With the help of the innocence project, Mr. Williams was released from the Louisiana State Penitentiary after serving 36 years.  
Mr. Williams said, the prison called Angola, was a tough place but that he had remained hopeful through his Christian faith.  
Mr. Williams said he bore no grudge against the victim for wrongly identifying him at the trial 36 years ago. “I want to soak it all in,” he said. “I want to go to college.”
