Trump sanctions eight new N. Korean banks, 26 individuals, Seoul still reviews independent sanctions - Duration: 1:48.
New sanctions hitting North Korean banks and individuals are announced by Washington.
The U.S. Treasury Department is hoping the measures will help isolate the regime and
ultimately bring it back to the process of denuclearization.
Seoul, meanwhile, is yet to decide on what it will do to sanction the hermit kingdom.
Connie Kim has the latest.
The United States is ramping up the pressure on North Korea by blacklisting eight new North
Korean banks and 26 people in line with Washington's efforts to choke off Pyongyang's nuclear and
ballistic missile funding.
Washington also applied a previous executive order to slap sanctions on North Korea's Foreign
Trade Bank and Central Bank.
The sanctions also singled out North Koreans working in China, Russia, Libya and the United
Arab Emirates.
Among the 26 individuals,... 19 were located in China, highlighting North Korea's increased
economic ties with its traditional ally.
In a statement Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin said the sanctions will further advance Washington's
strategy of fully isolating Pyongyang in order to achieve the goal of a peaceful and denuclearized
Korean peninsula.
The sanctions will mean the North Korean banks are no longer able to have financial transactions
with Chinese banks, which are seen as loopholes that hinder efforts to starve North Korea
financially.
Seoul said it expects Washington's move to put more pressure on North Korea.
The Trump administration has so far blacklisted 33 entities and 48 individuals, showing its
will to solve the North Korea issue.
But on the other hand,... the Moon administration has yet to come up with independent sanctions
on the regime since President Moon ordered a review of unilateral sanctions on the North
following Pyongyang's long-range ballistic missile launch late July.

Trump's Criticism of Anthem Protests Infuriates Military Veteran - Duration: 8:56.
Trump's Criticism of Anthem Protests Infuriates Military Veterans Who Fought 'Precisely' for
that Right
President Trump upped the ante on the controversy surrounding national anthem protests initiated
by quarterback Colin Kaepernick in vilifying those sitting out the song as �sons of bitches�
on Friday night; but, the instigator-in-chief�s shaming not only backfired, his comments earned
severe criticism from a source the billionaire apparently hadn�t considered: members of
the military.
�Three generations of my family, serving the USA, in harms� way,� wrote Green Beret
Michael Sand � father of a U.S. Army officer who served in Afghanistan and son of a World
War II veteran � in a post to Facebook Sunday.
�Three vastly different enemies, but enemies who shared one common trait.
ALL of them stifle free speech.
All of them bully, degrade and terrorize those who hold opposing views and who peacefully
express them.
All of them are intolerant and demand �loyalty� to the leader.
�I can tell you, speaking for three generations of my family, it is PRECISELY for men like
Kaepernick, and his right to peacefully protest injustice, that we were willing to serve.�
As if Trump�s original contention hadn�t caused enough outrage, the mogul�s assault
on the people�s right to protest only amplified early Monday morning, following Sunday�s
massive demonstrations during the national song by NFL players and coaches � who sat,
locked arms, or remained in the locker room � as well as by a major league baseball
player over the weekend, as he tweeted and retweeted posts containing the hashtag #StandForOurAnthem.
�This has nothing to do with race,� Trump stated Monday in an attempt to deflect concerns
pertaining to racist overtones in his condemnations � but seeming to ignore that Kaepernick�s
protest indeed centers around police violence against Black Americans.
�This has to do with respect for our country.�
Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Kaepernick stunned American sports fans in 2016 by sitting
down for the singing of the national anthem before National Football League games � rather
than standing with right hand on his chest, as tradition would dictate � in protest
against unchecked violence by law enforcement against minorities.
Despite the fact protest against injustice and State power has long been considered the
duty of patriots, millions, including Trump, have employed social media as a platform to
excoriate Kaepernick and the other players, the protest, and what it putatively means
to be a good citizen.
But, undeterred by resounding consternation from the president of the protest as un-American,
a number of service members have spoken out in support of those sitting out the anthem
� whether or not they agree with people�s motives.
As one 97-year-old World War II veteran and grandfather declared plainly, �those kids
have every right to protest.�
Posts from members of the U.S. military across several social media platforms concurred with
that sentiment, variously touting rights protected by the First Amendment � free speech, free
expression, and the right of the people to petition government for redress of grievances,
for instance � as particular concerns for defense of the nation, in their choice to
join the service.
�Colin sat down and exercised his right to protest, which is something that I feel
like we all swore an oath to defend,� asserted Iraq War and Navy veteran, Tom Baker, to Business
Insider, as the national anthem protests exploded into the spotlight last year.
BI catalogued a number of posts and statements from service members after Kaepernick�s
protest finally began making headlines in late August 2016:
�I also agree with the statements [Kaepernick] made,� said one.
�We don�t respect the rights of black and brown people.�
�The whole narrative of, �You�re disrespecting veterans and those who sacrificed� is bullshit,�
another intoned.
Another implored people �defending� the sacrifices of soldiers to consider advocating
for veterans rights and care for military returning home from duty or service, rather
than focusing on the anthem or flag, pointing out, �If these people truly gave a shit
about us veterans they would�ve kicked down the doors on the Capitol and demanded a real
inquiry into the deaths at the [Department of Veterans Affairs] and the insane number
of veterans committing suicide.�
Stoking the divide being the boon of the State, however, Trump continues masterfully manipulating
the public�s emotional response to perceived �injury� to the United States through
its symbols and traditions to swell patriotism utterly blind to the nation�s multitude
of domestic issues � in particular, the increasingly rogue police state � and devastatingly
imperialist foreign activities.
Kaepernick doesn�t hate America; he doesn�t hate the flag; he doesn�t hate police; he
does not wish ill of military members, their families, the president, nor anyone else.
In fact, it would behoove this fraught debate to be reminded the athlete sat down for the
Star Spangled Banner out of love for all people � regardless of race, creed, or politics
� and to call attention to stark disparities in treatment of minority communities which
make the United States an uneven playing field.
Racism � as literally no one should need reminding � remains quite alive and well.
Zito Madu of SBNation writes,
�Kaepernick was protesting racism.
He kneeled during the anthem because he thought the United States was not living up to its
own ideals of freedom.
The form of racism that he was concerned with was police brutality.
Kaepernick thought that unarmed and harmless minorities, black people especially, shouldn�t
be killed by the same police officers tasked with protecting them.
And the officers shouldn�t do so with impunity.
�Kaepernick kneeled as a plea for humanity.
He thought that human beings of a different race should be given the same respect, compassion,
and fair treatment as other human beings.
He wanted police officers to not profile or kill minorities in a disproportionate fashion.
He asked this because he loves the U.S. and knows that love isn�t pretending that what
you love is perfect, but shows itself in wanting the object of your love to be the best version
of itself.
�That plea for compassion, in a country that believes itself to be the greatest civilization,
is what is at the heart of all of this anger.
That people should be treated fairly seems like a mundane sentiment, or it would be if
the U.S. was more like the ideal of itself and not the work in progress that it is right
now.�
Decades after the Civil Rights Movement turned disobedience into a most efficacious if peaceful
weapon, Americans still cannot reckon its infinitely-complex distribution of races,
nationalities, and beliefs with a Constitution vowing protection of the rights of all.
With tolerance at a premium, police brutality running rampant, and a commander-in-chief
hell bent on dividing the populace beyond repair, a protest as uncomplicated as Kaepernick�s
must be accurately portrayed � and denouncements of false information, forthcoming.
While sitting for the national anthem pains many to witness, the resonant pain ricocheting
from this nation�s egregiously racist past and manifesting in an interminable list of
Black people and other minorities slain by law enforcement without consequence remains
a bloody and festering wound � one deafeningly ignored by Trump and the vast majority of
patriotism virtue-signalers.
�Want to know what�s unpatriotic?
Using your white privilege to avoid serving, citing �bone spurs in the heel� while
playing varsity tennis at college while others went.
Want to know what is antithetical to American values?
Using the most powerful pulpit in the land to incite violence � against ANYONE,�
continued Sand, the Green Beret, alluding to the president�s widely-condemned avoidance
of the draft during the Vietnam War.
�Want to define disgraceful behavior?
Denigrating a man like Senator John McCain�s service and heroism while you sat home.
�Want to respect the American flag?
Then respect the ideals for which it stands.
Bullying language and calling peaceful protesters �sons of bitches� who should be fired
aren�t among them.�

Darrell Hammond was a star as Trump. But then came Alec Baldwin. - Duration: 5:28.
"First, he was a cast member on Saturday Night Live for many years.
He has done all the presidents that we've had to suffer through.
And I'm really honored to have him, he's gonna be walking out for a few minutes
and joining us.
Please give a warm welcome to Darrell Hammond!"
"Good evening, I'm Donald Trump.
Of course, most of you know who I am already because I'm rich and I'm handsome."
And you don't hate Trump?
Why would I?
Why would an anthropologist hate his work?
You get a call from Steve Higgins and what does Steve tell you?
We're gonna replace you as Trump.
Alec's really famous.
And you're not.
"Good evening, America.
I'm gonna be so good tonight."
But then I said, "Well, I guess if Alec's not going to play him after the election,
if they don't win, then I'll play him again."
And then the most curious thing, "No, you won't play Trump here any more."
So you sat on that bench that day and you cried?
And threw up.
There?
Oh yeah.
Oh yeah!
It was violent.
"The Donald has a few plans for that stodgy and outdated White House, you understand?
Gentleman, I give you, the Trump House."
When he hosted, was when I got my first sense of him.
No one ever came earlier, no one ever stayed later.
"Do that thing, go ahead."
"You're fired."
He converts unpleasant into pleasant.
I saw that when Tom Brady hosted.
I saw that when Peyton Manning hosted, and in particular with Derek Jeter.
These are cats that walk in and go, "I can't act, but I'm pretty sure I've always been
able to figure out how to win."
"Please welcome King Midas himself, Donald Trump!"
We were doing a sketch with me and Amy Poehler and Trump was in the sketch.
And he's sitting there with me, and we're on a break, and says to me, "So listen, I
can't act.
I'm not an actor.
But I have this theory that if I go off script a little, it will be more spontaneous and
look more real.
And being real is being funny."
"Watch!"
His brain rejects negativity.
Maybe too much so.
Did you watch the election?
No.
Did you watch election night?
Where were you on election night?
I was right here on the couch.
Watching TV?
What were you doing?
Game of Thrones.
There was an election going on.
I got kicked out -- I'm not in the life.
I'm not in that world any more and it didn't feel good, so I didn't want to be reminded
of that.
"The feeling is that without this measure, I will dismiss this entire impeachment as a meaningless,
partisan affair.
Much the way you have."
"The lockbox would be used only for social security and Medicare."
Everybody remembers the lockbox.
Tell me what happens to you -- you're in your office, right?
And you're typically by yourself?
I was in my dressing room.
And what happens in that moment?
I knew I couldn't go out there.
I was shaking.
I was clutching the carpet.
I can't talk.
I'm too scared to talk.
"You may think you know the location of the lockbox."
I created a crisis that was manageable and just made a little cut.
I mean the way you described it -- is that the cut?
It's one of them.
Cutting is really a way to create a more manageable crisis than the one going on in your head.
That's one reason to cut.
Another reason to cut is to let people know, there's something wrong in my house, please
come look.
"Instead I will take those remarks and put them away.
Away in a tiny lockbox."
What time am I going out there, man?
It's getting late.
You know, Clinton, most elegant person ever.
Wearing a tux, greeting everyone.
When I met Bush, he was waiting for me at the cocktail party like this.
Remember Rosie O'Donnell was going after him?
"Big pig! He's a big pig! Big pig! Whore! Pig!"
Trump's like, "Yeah, and? Your point is?
If I had a dollar for every time -- oh wait a minute, I do!"
"Ladies and gentelmen, Darrell Hammond!"

IRS Hands Over Info On Trump Officials To Special Prosecutor - Duration: 3:40.
According to a new report on CNN, the IRS is officially handing over documents to special
prosecutor Robert Mueller in his investigation into possible collusion and criminal activity
in the Trump campaign and the Trump administration.
This latest information shows what they believe is that Mueller is looking into the IRS tax
returns from people like Paul Manafort and Michael Flynn.
Manafort worked on the campaign.
Flynn worked in the administration.
They're trying to find out what kind of payments either person received from groups like Russia
or Turkey, or any other foreign entity.
However, we do not know for sure that those are the people that Mueller got information
on, and we do not know if Mueller received information from Donald Trump's tax returns.
Right now this is all still speculation, but we do know that both former and current members
of both the Trump campaign and the Trump administration have been targeted, and their information
from the IRS has been handed over the Robert Mueller.
According to reports, what he's seeking is banking records and real estate records.
It's that second one that leads many people to believe that he actually is looking at
Donald Trump's tax returns.
One of the things we know that came out recently was one of Donald Trump's associates that
he bought some property with and took out some loans with up North had actually been
convicted on criminal charges.
Trump knew this but still sought a loan with this person, which is highly illegal.
That could be one of the things that Mueller is looking into, because that definitely would
point to some criminal activity on Trump's part that actually has nothing to do with
the original intent of this investigation.
Robert Mueller has a special power that was granted to him by the interim AG when he was
appointed.
He is allowed to pursue any form of criminal evidence in this investigation whether or
not it relates to the initial claim of collusion with the country of Russia, meaning if Mueller
uncovers something that he thinks might lead to a completely different financial crime
by anyone that's been swept up in this investigation, he is allowed to pursue that crime, as well,
in addition to the original investigation of collusion.
So don't think that just because Mueller's got Trump's tax returns and they don't show
that he colluded or received payments, don't think for a minute that that doesn't mean
Donald Trump can't be prosecuted for something else, because it absolutely does.
I think that's why Mueller is taking his time here, working with the IRS, trying to get
as much information as possible on as many people as possible, so that one day he can
walk into the Senate or walk into the White House or walk up to a podium for a press conference,
drop a file and say, "Hey, I've got 15 indictments in my hand for 15 different people.
Line up and come get them, Trump administration."
I think that's what most people in this country are hoping for at this point.
