The nation for which Kim Yo Jong is Director of Propaganda

Political Cartoons by Tom Stiglich
The same left that used to cheer for Ho Chi Minh. TD
Dem Senator Murphy of Connectucut Compares Not Cheering For North Korea To Disrespecting American National Anthem…. . . "But there’s another problem with Murphy’s tweet: it wasn’t a protest. The Vice President’s press secretary pointed out on Twitter that leaders only stood to applaud their own countries, and Pence sat for every country except the United States." . . . Voters should drop-kick Sen. Murphy next election, but noooo. TD
CNN's Bizarre Praise of Kim Jong Un's Sister at the Winter Olympics  "CNN ran an absurd story Saturday afternoon, seemingly praising the sister of one the world’s most evil dictators for “stealing the show” at the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang, South Korea. 
"The piece starts off, saying, “If 'diplomatic dance' were an event at the Winter Olympics, Kim Jong Un's younger sister would be favored to win gold.” 
"Hailing Kim Yo Jong as North Korea’s “answer” to Ivanka Trump, CNN claims that “with a smile, a handshake and a warm message in South Korea's presidential guest book, Kim Yo Jong has struck a chord with the public just one day into the PyeongChang Games.' ”  . . .
Kim Yo Jong was "promoted" in 2014 to "deputy director of the Propaganda and Agitation Department of the Workers' Party." Perhaps even weirder about this story is that three days earlier CNN noted that Kim Yo Jong is always "thinking that at any given time, if she is to make one mistake, her brother could have her killed."
Both Kims are children of a mistress of Kim Jong Il

American Media Can't Stop Gushing About the North Korean 'Charm Offensive' at the Olympics  "Many Americans over the weekend observed the mainstream media's fawning coverage of North Korea at the Olympics with abject disgust -- especially in light of the hostile coverage of Vice President Mike Pence and Second Lady Karen Pence.
"The over-the-top praise of the North Korean cheer squad and Kim Yo-jong, the younger sister of North Korea's dictator Kim Jong Un, has been nothing short of disgraceful.

I am deeply saddened by how my profession has normalized and glamorized this murderous regime.
And then we wonder why no one trusts us.
"North Korea continues to starve, imprison, torture, and murder its own people and threaten its neighbors with nuclear annihilation -- but that didn't stop Reuters from awarding the totalitarian regime with a gold medal for diplomacy."

Without a word, only flashing smiles, Kim Jong-un's sister outflanked Vice President Mike Pence in diplomacy . . . 
Have you ever heard of Yeonmi Park? She's a 24-year-old woman who defected from North Korea when she was 13.  
She appeared at the One Young World Summit 2014 in Dublin, Ireland, one day after her 21st birthday to give a brief talk about her life in the "unimaginable" dictatorship and described what happened to her and her mother after a human trafficker helped them escape to China.
"Years later, Park could barely talk about the horrors she lived through.
"Out of antipathy toward President Trump, American media outlets propped that nightmare regime up over the weekend so they could push the narrative that Vice President Pence looked weak and ineffective compared to the mighty Norks.
"Have a tissue ready because this will make you cry." . . .



". . . And with the knives, we were prepared to kill ourselves if we were going to be sent back to North Korea. We wanted to live as humans. People often ask me, "how can you help North Koreans?" There are many ways but I would like to mention three for now. One, educate yourself so that you can raise awareness about human crisis in North Korea. Two, help and support North Korean refugees who are trying to escape to freedom. Three, petition China's on repatriation. We have to shine a light on the darkest place in the world."
CNN, are you aware of this?
