increasingly tweeting or re tweeting misleading or false information sometimes even disproven conspiracy theories this is a very big deal i will say it's had a sense of inevitability remember twitter did temporarily suspend his account back on the 2 days ago when the the violent mob marched on the capitol and they required him to delete 2 tweets and then they reinstated him and he made a few more tweets but if you remember when they said that they said further violations may result in permanent suspension or language to that effect in the halls of congress calls are growing for trump to be impeached a group of democrats has circulated the draft of the articles of impeachment against trump that is expected to be taken up in the house as soon as monday it accuses trump of high crimes and misdemeanors by inciting an insurrection and says trump has demonstrated he will remain a threat if allowed to stay in office the white house called the articles of

a return to the old ways the old acrimony before several years ago it does seem as though the trump here is now at an end of the north korea doesn't place much store in what might come from a new bided ministration we have seen a suspension the past couple of years of these large as far as north korea is concerned provocative military exercises between u.s. and south korean forces well may well be the case and you bite the ministration will reintroduce the spring exercise between u.s. and south korean forces which always causes a hostile reaction from north korea so we wait and see north korea waits and sees just what the policy will be from the ministration when it comes in at the end of january. united states had a new record for crowd of us infections on friday with nearly 290000 new cases its top infectious disease expert is warning the number of deaths and new cases is not going to keep rising and coming president joe biden says he plans to speed up
