ability to influence north korea but north korea is more dependent on china. it is not always mean that china can control north korea. that has been a focus for a long time among china and north korea watchers and remains a subject of continuing debate. we are getting new data points in this current environment, but i would say that the range of use remains diverse in terms of whether china really is able to control north korea or north korea really seeks autonomy from china more than anything else. i will come back to that later. a third take away as i look at the strategic triangle is that historically one of the main factors that has influenced the dynamic end of element of this particular triangle has been the nature and focus of leadership in south korea, and other words whether south korea is led by a conservative administration or progressive administration, so that is important to keep in mind because north korea has been more hostile toward conservative south korean leadership and more cooperative with progressive south korean leadership. that has bee

and i was born in north korea. the very, very first thing that i learned from my schoolteachers were how horrible american --. by the way, that was same word, american pastors, same words. even in my book, it was like there are four or make ambassadors. you can't two of them. how american masters left to kill. and we don't have internet in those cave. we don't even know what that is. so the only idea of america that i could understand from my teachers were this screw posters. we're american monsters. they were cold blooded reptile. they were like pulling teeth out of our women eating our children, torturing our people. and my school teachers were telling me, you are so lucky because you have our dear leader, ding dong, protecting us from these horrible americans. that's why we had we were so lucky that we had nothing to envy in this work. and now i to america. and the first time i was looking at americans first of all before, even i was thinking about propaganda. i was thinking why everybody looked the same here. e

well, another thing we've now learned from the north vietnamese side is, in fact, the north vietnamese are very impatient. by 1967, they've started realize that they're just getting clobbered in south vietnam. and they can see that because americans in south vietnamese are actually getting stronger despite all these supposed they're taking. the latest one here is now the principal strategic decision maker in the north, ho chi minh is aging and kind of on his way out, at least one says, well, we've got to try something different, so why don't we instead of fighting in the jungles and mountains, swamps, why don't we go to the cities north? the cities of south vietnam attack them and surely the people in the cities are all full hatred for the capitalists and the american neo colonialists. so once we go there, they will rise up and this will be a victory, sort of like the russian revolution in 1917, or that when north vietnamese seizure of power in hanoi in 1945. so this then leads to the tet offensive. of 1968. tet offensive does not go at all as hanoi had been hoping. the people do not r

and north koreans, on in north korea, literally, that is how you do that. they will have a trashcan. in china. when i went to north korea, going to torture and from the government. they sold my mother for $65 in the 21st century. that was very precious. with human traffickers, sometimes -- today i flew from europe, with the same words, china had a one china policy, the communist party, lacking 30 million, cannot find one. at their cesspool. they by our bodies, helping our body to take that, and second place, north korean -- a window in those rooms. and and and they go around, and another human trafficker wanted to send me to a farm. i thought about killing myself, if i sacrifice myself, couldn't save my mother and father and sisters, he didn't bring my mom back. and brought my father from north korea to china and eventually passed away. two years of slavery, 15 years old, and she said something very shocking at other times, from south korea. they say if you go to south korea. we are going to be 3 and the north korean guys, we don't have a word for love for

remember when american media made fun of ÃÃhaircuts and they were saying all poor north koreans all northe to have ÃÃhaircut. we don't even have a choice what haircut we get. america luckily when i came here i was introduced to columbia university in new york city. the first day of my orientation the professors asked us stay angry stay outraged because america is inherently Ãsystem and all the evil happening in the world is because of capitalism and because of ÃÃi was like that i somehow go back to north korea. was that exact isame thing i w learning all the problems we have in the world the only solution was all the problems was a communist Ãand my professors at columbia university they said the exact same thing to me. so let's talk about how that utopia socialist look like. i often tell people, i was born in the darkest place in the world. if you actually see the satellite picture of north korea and the nighttime it is really the darkest place because they don't have electricity. i have so many climate change in new york city i told him please go to north hkorea because we have ÃÃeveryd

all back title, thoughts taking place between the americans and north korean and north korea, all the official adults happening to secure the release of travis king. it seems like the us is trying to get some contacts and then helping they're receiving limited responses from an old korea and boss we've, we've got to remember the relations are exceptionally pooled between the us and north korea at the moment. and as it all coming try lateral segments between latest dr. barton, you know, and you said that japanese from minnesota to see to in the us, us camp david's. and there's also a really big on coming us south korea joins military drills. it seems like north korea might be preparing another intercontinental ballistic missile launch in response to these drills, the tensions are going to continue rising. there's not really that much contacts between the 2 sides, and that's going to make of securing travis king's release a lot small, difficult. we're live with the timing, but thank you so much for joining us today. james fretful from so the now the past few months, i've seen extreme we

go back to north korea. and my mother, i r remember askg her 13-year-old child. go back to north korea. nothing -- the one thing the main one stayed in china was seeing a trashcan for the first time in my life. this home there was a lady help us find some food some human traffickers they were throwing things and i asked what is that she's into trashcan things you don't you throw. in north korea we said what you have things you throw in your country and north korea we cannot even throw the poop away. literally there's nothing you can throw away in north korea. that is how impoverished we are. and in china they can afford to have a trashcan. i told my mom i want to stay in china. even if i went back to north korea that was the case i would not be here today because i would have gone from malnutrition and from the government. they sold my mother for $65 as a sex slave. they sold me just over $200. because i was a child, a virgin and that was very precious to these perverted chinese human straffickers. sometimes

i came back to north carolina after being on national campaigns. i worked for the kamala harris and amy mcgrath campaigns. i thought the way to begin organizing communities was to go home again. 51% of the city of roxborough had never had their voices fully represented on the board before. we did that. i think that is possible across all of north carolina also in places where we did not expect it because we did not have democratic infrastructure built before. >> you mentioned how people want their voice to be heard, to be represented in some way. what are the top issues people are concerned about in north carolina? if someone in the national party wanted to call you and say, what should we be talking about to these people coming you are like, this is what i hear all the time? >> i think housing. i think people would be surprised how much folks worry about how to pay their next bill. the economy right now might be working for some folks in some cases, but it has not had that effect yet on everybody feeling it. that is something the democratic party

north dakota's far too. you recently sent the north dakota national guard to texas. think you just got back from the border. can you talk a little bit about that and why you sent troops to the border? can you talk about the impact it has on our states? gov. burgum: absolutely and thank you by stepping up to support governor abbott. 110,000 overdose deaths in our country. those are statistics you cannot even comprehend. 300 americans per day are dying of overdoses. 70% are fentanyl poisoning. the majority of that is coming from the southern border. we are taking massive casualties every day. we are losing 300 people per day. it took biden two years to get to the southern border. the 10th amendment says the federal government has certain responsibilities, the rest is returned to the states or to the people. gov. reynolds: he is not doing his constitutional duty. gov. burgum: governor abbott is working to control the border. we have two sets of national guard down there. they are managing helicopter flights. another group is helping specifically in texas. when i was dow

it is the first time north korea has knowledged detaining the soldier.ot been verified, and in a press briefing, the white house has urged people to be mindful of where the statement was made when considering its validity. we would caution everyone to consider the source here, that is incredibly important, as we are hearing the report. we can't verify the comments that are being attributed to private king, obviously. we remain focused on his safe return to him as we have been saying for these past several weeks, and we are breaking through all available channels to achieve that outcome. you know, none of it changes anything. we want to make sure that he gets home safely, that he returns to his family safely. and that is going to be our focus. the spokesperson for private king's family — jonathan franks — gave bbc news his reaction to the statement which was released by north korea. i don't know exactly what to make of that statement. parts of it didn't make a lot of sense. and, you know, i would hesitate... i would caution folks against taking this at fa

vip treatment by the north korean leader. so this is clearly a proximate threat that the three leaders are coming together on. while kelly was speaking, they just released a joint statement, and what's interesting about it is there's very clear calling-out of china, which i know was an issue among the leaders before and the negotiations leading up to camp david. the two asian leaders were a little skittish about mentioning china directly and their unlawful actions in the region. but it has come out in a statement, and that's pretty significant. >> let me talk about how it's no small thing for korea -- south korea and japan to overcome their differences, overcome the long-standing anger and tension between those two countries. does that only underscore how acute a threat china is, both militarily and economically in that region? >> i think so. i think that's very much right. the history goes back to japan and korea in the 20th century. but the south korean leader went out and said i'm going to improve this relationship. it was

"unification with south korea, because it was a birch tree to lose power, and for him it is, after all, for all communist dictators, the highest value for this family, it was always important not just to keep power, but also to pass it on to their heirs, and this dynasty is ready for anything even for a possible nuclear attack , in fact, two koreas still have the last war signed in 53, the armistice meant only the end of active hostilities, and during this time, which lasted for more than half a century, south korea showed incredible economic growth, now it ranks 14th in the world for the l

how does north career fit into the and well, north korea continues to be the, the major irritant. and whenever the missile flies over japan, the, the feeling of in security here, and the support for japan having some better capability in defense goes way up at the same time, you know, economic concerns are prevalent here across the region with inflation and, and incomes of staying flat and so people you know, are little bit wavering and their public opinion. and as i said with security, we need to broaden it out and, and north korea is going to continue to do what it does. and uh, i think the us and japan and south korea working together, but also working within this region to try to dampen of a triggering some type of an accidental occurrence. that is probably the biggest worry rather than an intentional or breaking out. and also, and, and what's happening in the south china sea, it was interesting to monitor the summit and to watch the press or, and how buying and really play down china. he mentioned china at the very end. but he said that this summit was more about cooperation

in north dakota we have 175 school districts in north dakota. a lot of parents have stepped up and ran for school boards. one of the great ways to make sure parents have a voice at the local school is not the federal government that is going to work with thousands of public school districts in this country, it is going to be with local control making it happen. the federal government is going to return the power to the state. the state has got to be strong enough to move it to the local school district. from the union standpoint, it is a problem. when i talk about ideology being tied into. it is not just school district. the water commission is in charge of a billion dollars. north dakota is the size. we have to be solving the problems for all of that and the chairman of the bank. it goes back to your question and biden in inflation in local control in unions is all tied into one thing. we have federal money. here's the stuff we have to get you that is going to help you build infrastructure. we get the bid back to finish a water plan that has fe

in north korea you cannot change your ancestors. it is so heartbreaking the same tactic to divide people is being used in america. like people are being punished for something they have not done. you didn't choose to be white when you were born. nobody chose that. and in north korea when i was born i was in the lower class because my great-grandfather had land, he was a land owner and that is whyod they said my blood is oppressive to other people. thank you. >> i was wondering what you thought of donald trump's meeting a couple years ago. >> thank you. that is a very funny story because i was actually one of the critics during the time of presidentng trump. i was living in new york city and everybody was telling me. i'd just come to america. s he was the president and everyone was saying that he was a dictator and that was the only time "the new york times" wanted to put me on the newspaper. to criticize president trump. that is the only time. it seems like to me that because he's coming from a tv script background, he thought he co

when we were in a trade mission in japan from north dakota because we produce food and fuel, a north korean missile came over the top of the idea. now they're talking about maybe sometime in the future we'll have a joint early warning system. when we were there, executives were texting each other that there was a missile coming. i don't want to say this is too little too late, but these are the allies that american men and women fought and died for. if we want to consider them allies, we have to do what i've been saying. we have to sell energy to our friends and stop having buying it from our adversaries. if we don't do that change, all the collaboration isn't going to matter. they need food security and energy security. it needs to come from the united states if they're really our ally. >> martha: thanks, governor. another round of question coming in. let's see if it's a harder line on these issues with regard to kline and the threat that they present. let's watch. >> china's threat in asia is rising, what do you think about this comment, president biden and the situation in asia wh

host: what does that mean for north carolina and the map that was drawn? guest: the different issue that arose in the case was whether the case was moot. while the supreme court considered this case, there is parallel litigation happening in north carolina. the north carolina state supreme court had a midterm election and the justices on the state supreme court turned over in the state supreme court reversed itself on this decision and said we don't think we got it right that first time and we are not sure the state constitution checks the state legislatures and were not sure the constitution prohibits excessive partisan gerrymandering. go back and you can draw the map you want to in the first place. even without the supreme court opinion, the state supreme court had already reversed this decision. this means the map the state legislature wanted to draw, that map, something like a 10-three republican/democratic split, is something that gets to remain in effect in the state legislature gets to do that. despite the fact the supreme court said yes you cannot
