Speculation runs rampant on why President Donald Trump chose to pull Mike Pompeo back

from another visit to Pyongyang.

The Washington Post revealed an uncooperative letter from the hermit kingdom may have something

to do with that decision.

Lee Ji-won has the full story.

President Donald Trump's decision to call off his Secretary of State's fourth visit

to North Korea... seems to have been prompted by a letter from Pyongyang.

An opinion piece in the Washington Post Monday said the decision to cancel Pompeo's trip

came just hours after the Secretary received a "secret letter" last Friday from North Korea's

Vice Chairman of the Workers' Party's Central Committee, Kim Yong-chol.

The article cited two senior White House officials as saying the letter was belligerent enough

that President Trump and Secretary Pompeo were convinced the planned visit would not

be successful.

Trump tweeted that the trip was canceled because of a lack of progress on the denuclearization

of the Korean Peninsula.

The article in the Post said the letter was in response to the latest one from Trump,

in which he urged North Korea to take more concrete actions on denuclearization and warned

against backsliding.

While the officials declined to say how North Korea delivered the letter, the article said

that North Korea has been increasingly using its UN mission.

It also said Secretary Pompeo's fourth visit to Pyongyang, slated for this week, was to

negotiate a step-for-step deal.

The regime has been asking the U.S. to declare an end to the Korean War, while the Trump

administration has been asking Pyongyang for a declaration of its nuclear and missile programs

and assets.

But despite the historic North Korea-U.S. summit in June and the follow up meetings,

there has been no significant progress made on denuclearizing.

And Trump acknowledged the lack of progress in these talks for the first time in that

tweet.

The ball has now been tossed to North Korea, and many say the regime's next move could

result in even more sanctions if it doesn't satisfy President Trump.

Donald Trump Sent Three Tweets That Could Send Hillary Clinton To Jail

Hillary Clinton escaped jail because the FBI rigged the probe into her private email server.

Former Director James Comey and his allies looked the other way with Clinton's crimes.

But Donald Trump changed all that with three tweets that could send Hillary Clinton to

jail.

A Bombshell Report About Hillary Clinton's Emails

Americans were shocked when the FBI found emails with classified information on a laptop

owned by Anthony Weiner in October 2016.

James Comey ordered the probe reopened.

Comey later said he took this action to protect Clinton.

Comey believed Clinton would win the election and therefore did not want her win tainted.

The FBI's investigation – however – was a joke.

Critics believe the FBI carried out a cover-up.

Journalist Paul Sperry went on Fox News and revealed the FBI's failure.

Sperry declared, "James Comey told Congress that they had reviewed all of the Clinton

emails, hundreds of thousands, that were found on the Weiner laptop.

But that was not true.

They barely looked at any of them.

Just 3,000 of 700,000."

Sperry then described disgraced FBI agent Peter Strzok's role in this scandal.

"Peter Strzok, the disgraced agent who was in charge of this midyear investigation into

the Clinton emails, he actually personally handpicked the 3,000 sample," Sperry continued.

"And with two other investigators, they went through them all supposedly, pulled an

all-nighter, ordered pizza, and said nothing new here.

Case closed once again," Sperry concluded.

Donald Trump Responds Donald Trump bashed the FBI for rigging the

Clinton email probe.

President Trump tweeted:

BIG STORY OUT THAT THE FBI IGNORED TENS OF THOUSANDS OF CROOKED HILLARY EMAILS, MANY

OF WHICH ARE REALLY BAD.

ALSO GAVE FALSE ELECTION INFO.

I FEEL SURE THAT WE WILL SOON BE GETTING TO THE BOTTOM OF ALL OF THIS CORRUPTION.

AT SOME POINT I MAY HAVE TO GET INVOLVED!

"THE FBI ONLY LOOKED AT 3000 OF 675,000 CROOKED HILLARY CLINTON EMAILS."

THEY PURPOSELY DIDN'T LOOK AT THE DISASTERS.

THIS NEWS IS JUST OUT.

@FOXNEWS

"THE FBI LOOKED AT LESS THAN 1%" OF CROOKED'S EMAILS!

Trump also blasted Jeff Sessions for not taking action against Hillary and the FBI.

He wrote:

"DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE WILL NOT BE IMPROPERLY INFLUENCED BY POLITICAL CONSIDERATIONS."

JEFF, THIS IS GREAT, WHAT EVERYONE WANTS, SO LOOK INTO ALL OF THE CORRUPTION ON THE

"OTHER SIDE" INCLUDING DELETED EMAILS, COMEY LIES & LEAKS, MUELLER CONFLICTS, MCCABE,

STRZOK, PAGE, OHR……

….FISA ABUSE, CHRISTOPHER STEELE & HIS PHONY AND CORRUPT DOSSIER, THE CLINTON FOUNDATION,

ILLEGAL SURVEILLANCE OF TRUMP CAMPAIGN, RUSSIAN COLLUSION BY DEMS – AND SO MUCH MORE.

OPEN UP THE PAPERS & DOCUMENTS WITHOUT REDACTION?

COME ON JEFF, YOU CAN DO IT, THE COUNTRY IS WAITING! Trump supporters see how the FBI

targets Trump and ignores Hillary Clinton's crimes.

And Paul Sperry's report backs that up.

Donald Trump's tweets show he will not allow this double standard to continue.

And it gives his supporters hope that Hillary Clinton will pay a price for her crimes.

Trump Catches White House Leaker – Announces Identity - Duration: 11:26.

Trump Catches White House Leaker – Announces Identity

BREAKING NEWS: Ever since President Donald Trump took office, his White House has been

plagued by a series of leaks.

Now, Trump is taking action to plug these leaks once and for all.

Right Wing News reported that sources say that White House Legislative Director Marc

Short is getting ready to leave Trump's White House any day now.

Insiders say that Short has been complaining of the so-called "diminishing returns"

of advocating for President Trump's legislative agenda on Capitol Hill, and that he has leaked

to others how terrible he thinks his job is.

The Washington Post's Josh Dawsey took to Twitter on Thursday to say that White House

officials say that Short will be out the door before the November elections.

"White House legislative affairs director Marc Short is expected to leave long before

the midterms, per WH officials.

Unclear exactly when," Dawsey tweeted.

It is believed that Short may be replaced by Shahira Knight, who is currently the deputy

director of the National Economic Council.

A source close to the situation said that White House Chief of Staff John Kelly talked

to Knight about the job and she expressed her interest.

Short has been one of the longest lasting members of Trump's White House, as he has

been there since January of 2017.

Prior to that, Short worked with Vice President Mike Pence during the 2016 campaign.

This comes after the Department of Justice caught senate aide James Wolfe leaking classified

information to the media.

"It's very interesting that they caught a leaker — it's a very important leaker,"

Trump said, according to Breitbart.

The president added that he is still getting information about what happened.

"It could be a terrific thing," he added as he left the White House to head to Canada

for the G7 summit.

Trump explained that though he supports freedom of the press, it was wrong of Wolfe to leak

classified information.

"I think you have a double edge," Trump said to reporters.

"You cannot leak classified information.

At the same time, we need freedom of the press."

Citing Trump Admin's Hostility Towards Students, Loan Watchdog Resigns - Duration: 3:28.

Yesterday it was announced that Seth Frotman, the student loan ombudsman at the Consumer

Financial Protection Bureau would be stepping down, resigning his position at the end of

this week.

And the reason Frotman decided that he could no longer work with the CFPB is because they

have made it clear that they do not care about the student loan debt crisis in the United

States and that they don't care about the predatory lenders who are preying on students

just trying to get a quality education.

Frotman said that his division has been basically absorbed by another part of the CFPB, they

have had their regulatory oversight reduced basically to the point of not being able to

protect students from some of these predatory lenders.

The CFPB, under Mick Mulvaney, has also been working to allow for profit colleges, even

those that basically take all your money for four years and leave you with a degree that's

completely worthless, that those people can enter back into the game and scam students

left and right without them having any recourse.

Those are the reasons that Frotman has decided to step down from his office.

Now let's talk about how bad this problem actually is.

Right now there's about one and half trillion dollars worth of student loan debt being held

by people in the United States.

One and a half trillion dollars just in student loan debt.

And this guy, Seth Frotman, it was his job to kind of protect those people and now he's

gone because he couldn't do his job.

The Administration made it clear that they didn't want him to do his job.

So what's going to happen is he's either going to be replaced with somebody who's wholly

in the pocket of the big banks like Mick Mulvaney who's currently running the CFPB or we're

going to get another person in there who does care about the issue only to find out that

they also can not do anything to protect students here in the United States.

The Trump Administration has made it clear that they hate the Consumer Financial Protection

Bureau.

Republicans, since the day this organization was created, have made it clear that they

hate it but it is one of the most vital parts of our government even if it is one of the

newest.

It came about because of all the financial crimes, and yes they were crimes, being committed

by the biggest banks here in the United States and now they're being neutered.

They're being gutted, they're having their funding slashed.

Mulvaney, at one point this year, actually requested zero dollars in funding.

He believes that his agency just has too darn much power and Congress needs to take some

of it away.

This is not how you protect American consumers.

This is how you protect big banks.

Big banks were still engaging in the same kind of criminal conduct that led us into

the Recession of 2007 and 2008.

They're doing it again because the groups that we created to basically make sure they

weren't doing it, like the CFPB, have been completely stripped of their power and are

being run by corporate political puppets like Mick Mulvaney.

The American Legion Calls on Trump to Lower Flag Again | Heavy.com - Duration: 8:21.

The American Legion Calls on Trump to Lower Flag Again | Heavy.com

The American Legion sent a statement to the president urging him to re-lower the flag following Senator John McCain's death.

The American Legion, the nation's largest veterans service organization is calling on President Trump to re-lower the American flag to honor Arizona Senator John McCain's life, death and dedication to the United States.

The organization urged Trump in a statement Monday to follow longtime protocol following the deaths of prominent government officials, after the White House raised the flag to full staff less than two days after the Senator's death.

"Senator John McCain was an American hero and cherished member of The American Legion," the statement read.

"On behalf of The American Legion's two million wartime veterans, I strongly urge you to make an appropriate presidential proclamation noting Senator McCain's death and legacy of service to our nation, and that our nation's flag be half-staffed through his internment.".

McCain, who died Saturday at 81, is a decorated Vietnam War hero who spent more than five years as a prisoner-of-war in North Vietnam, after his plane went down and he was captured.

He was imprisoned and tortured for more than five years following the crash.

Trump tweeted his condolences after news of the Senator's death broke, but did not mention McCain or issue any statement, instead aiming his tweet directly at McCain's family.

My deepest sympathies and respect go out to the family of Senator John McCain.

Our hearts and prayers are with you! — Donald J.

Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 26, 2018  .

The tweet accurately portrayed the strained relationship between the two Republicans over the last several years.

During Trump's presidential campaign, they bickered fiercely and often, with Trump going so far as to claim that the Senator wasn't actually a war hero, referring to McCain's five year imprisonment during the Vietnam War, when his plane was shot down and he was captured.

"He's not a war hero.

He's a war hero because he was captured.

I like people that weren't captured," Trump said at a campaign event in Iowa in 2015.

The comment was not well received, and pundits predicted that Trump's bid for the White House was sunk.

Despite the White House raising the flag back to full staff, Senate leaders of both parties have formally requested American flags at government buildings remain at half-staff to honor McCain's legacy.

The actions of the White House flying the flag at full staff have angered thousands of people, with many accusing the president of being disrespectful and petty.

The hashtag #NoRespect started trending on Twitter, with several users calling the White House out for going against an Eisenhower proclamation that defined specific terms for how flags were supposed to be flown on government buildings following the death of a head of state.

Here's a relevant passage from the proclamation.

"The flag of the United States shall be flown at half-staff on all buildings, grounds, and naval vessels of the Federal Government in the metropolitan area of the District of Columbia on the day of death and on the following day upon the death of a United States Senator, Representative, Territorial Delegate, or the Resident Commissioner from the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and it shall also be flown at half-staff on all buildings, grounds, and naval vessels of the Federal Government in the State, Congressional District, Territory, or Commonwealth of such Senator, Representative, Delegate, or Commissioner, respectively, from the day of death until interment.

Huffington Post White House correspondent SV Date reports that the White House said it was following protocol, claiming the half-staff tradition is one and a half days, which is not how the 1954 proclamation reads.

The American Legion also reminded President Trump that he had issued proclamations commemorating the deaths of former first lady Barbara Bush and pastor Billy Graham, and that the same should be done to honor McCain.

"Senator John McCain was an American hero and cherished member of The American Legion," the statement continued.

"As I'm certain you are aware, he served five and a half years as a prisoner of war in North Vietnam and retired from the U.S.

Navy at the rank of Captain.

He then served in the U.S.

Congress for more than three decades.".

Before his death, McCain decided against having Trump at his funeral, but made sure to invite former Presidents Barack Obama and George W.

Bush, who are expected to speak.

Update: August 27, 3:18 p.

President Trump did eventually release a statement regarding McCain's death, stating that he "respected Senator John McCain's service to our country" and would be providing military transportation of his remains from Arizona to Washington D.

The statement also stated that Trump was having General john Kelly, Secretary James Mattis, and Ambassador John Bolton to represent his administration at McCain's funeral.

Vice President Mike Pence will be honoring Senator McCain at the United States Capitol this Friday.

Student loan watchdog pens scathing rebuke of the Trump administration as he resigns in protest - Duration: 2:07.

In a scathing letter addressed to Mick Mulvaney, head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Seth Frotman, the official charged with regulating the student loan industry, said the agency "has turned its back on young people and their financial futures

Frotman accused the CFPB, under Trump, of betraying student borrowers, reports NPR

He announced that he's resigning in protest."Unfortunately, under your leadership, the Bureau has abandoned the very consumers it is tasked by Congress with protecting," he wrote

"Instead, you have used the Bureau to serve the wishes of the most powerful financial companies in America

NPR notes that since 2011, the CFPB has processed more than 60,000 student loan complaints, returning more than $750 million to borrowers wronged by the student loan industry

The office also sued for-profit colleges like ITT Tech and Corinthian Colleges for predatory practices

The Trump administration appears to have undermined the student loan watchdog in a variety of ways

The Department of Education decided to stop sharing information with the office."The Bureau's current leadership folded to political pressure… and failed borrowers who depend on independent oversight to halt bad practices," Frotman said in his letter

Before he was tapped to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Mulvaney called the organization "a joke … in a sick, sad kind of way

Tiger Woods Demands Everyone 'Respect' Friend Donald Trump & Fans Blast The Golf Icon - Duration: 4:20.

Tiger Woods failed to score a hole in one here. Fans savagely dragged Tiger after saying that people need to 'respect' Donald Trump, whether they agree with his politics or not!    "At times, especially 2018, I think a lot of people, especially immigrants are threatened by [President Donald Trump, 72] and his policy — what do you say to people who might find it interesting that you have a friendly relationship with him?" a reporter asked Tiger Woods, 42, at the end of The North Trust tournament on Aug

26, per ESPN. His response? "Well, he's the President of the United States," Tiger said

"You have to respect the office. No matter who is in the office, you may like, dislike personality or the politics, but we all must respect the office

"    After the numerous scandals, the anti-LGBT policy decisions, the alleged "sh*thole country" remarks, and the countless other nightmares coming out of Trump's White House, the last thing voters wanted to hear is a golfer saying they had to "respect" Donald just because he's the president

"Contrast Tiger's obviously political response with LeBron [James's] courageous stances

LeBron is a real man," @BriakBeckcom said.  "Have been a Tiger Woods fan since day one

He just lost me, when he said I should respect trump, and the office he is desecrating

What a joke. I don't respect liars. Thieves, molesters, or racists! Now and forever you can keep quiet

" "Incorrect, Tiger. Perhaps as another cheating husband, you can sympathize but there is nothing good about 'valuing an office' blindly," @Matthew254045 tweeted

"Tiger, when the actual 'person' in office begins to show 'respect' and dignity for the 'office,' " user @Minniecoggs tweeted, "then perhaps we can agree

Right now the President himself lacks all respect for Americans, by his boorish and cavalier behavior, demeaning the institution of the presidency itself

"    Tiger's answer – which seemed to ignore the specific ways that the Trump presidency resembles a dumpster fire – may be more political, considering he's a golfer with sponsors and endorsement deals

He also has a relationship with Donald that predates Trump's run for the White House

Like Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Phil Mickelson, Tiger has a villa named after him at Trump's Doral resort in Miami, per ESPN

Plus, he played golf with Trump after he was elected in 2016 and in 2017, joining Donald, Dustin Johnson and Brad Faxon to hit the links  "I've known Donald for a number of years," Tiger added, "We've played golf together

We've had dinner together. I've known him pre-presidency and obviously during his presidency

" When asked if he had any more to say, he declined. "No. I just finished 72 holes and am really hungry

Trump Stuns Obama Holdovers With Massive White House Purge – He's Firing Them All - Duration: 10:44.

Trump Stuns Obama Holdovers With Massive White House Purge – He's Firing Them All

Ever since Donald Trump took office, his White House has been plagued by a series of leaks.

Now, Trump is finally making a huge move to put a stop to these leaks once and for all.

Right Wing News reported that rumors are swirling that a massive purge is about to take place

in the Trump White House, as the president is planning a major shake-up among his communications

team.

Sources say that White House chief of staff John Kelly has already approved of a plan

to purge some mid-level and junior aides in the hopes of finally ending the damning leaks.

Some staffers will be fired, while others will be moved to different departments.

Junior communications staffer Kelly Sadler was just fired after she made a remark about

Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) that was leaked to the press stating "It doesn't matter,

he's dying anyway."

She said this during a meeting with a group of about two-dozen communications staffers

shortly after McCain voiced his public opposition to President Trump's pick for CIA director,

Gina Haspel.

Once this was leaked, the White House moved fast to prevent future and further leaks by

limiting invitations to President Trump's daily communications meetings to a smaller

group of advisers.

The White House did not deny that Sadler made the statement, apologizing for any "discomfort"

it may have caused.

"We respect Senator McCain's service to our nation and he and his family are in our

prayers during this difficult time," the White House added.

A source close to the situation said that Sadler's firing has made communication aides

feel uneasy, as they higher ups "have made it clear nobody is safe no matter what."

We can only hope that this purge will finally stop the leaks that have plagued Trump's

White House from day one of his presidency.

President Trump will not attend John McCain's funeral, family spokesman says - Duration: 2:35.

Then-GOP presidential hopeful John McCain (R-Ariz.), left, huddles with Rick Davis, who was his campaign manager at the time, on Feb

6, 2008. (Charles Dharapak/AP) By Felicia Sonmez , National reporter August 27 at 2:02 PM President Trump will not be attending the funeral or memorial services in Washington for Sen

John McCain (R-Ariz.), a McCain family spokesman said Monday. Rick Davis, who was also McCain's campaign manager and longtime adviser, said at a news conference in Phoenix that Vice President Pence will serve as the Trump administration designee at a ceremony honoring McCain on Friday at the U

S. Capitol Rotunda. "The president will not be, as far as we know, attending the funeral

That's just a fact." Davis said, declining to reiterate what has already been reported about the McCain family's wishes

Davis also read from a letter that contained McCain's final words for the country

"We weaken our greatness when we confuse our patriotism with tribal rivalries that have sown resentment and hatred and violence in all the corners of the globe," McCain wrote in the letter

"We weaken it when we hide behind walls, rather than tear them down, when we doubt the power of our ideals, rather than trust them to be the great force for change they have always been

" He added: "If only we remember that and give each other the benefit of the presumption that we all love our country, we will get through these challenging times

We will come through them stronger than before. We always do." Speakers at events in Washington honoring McCain will include former presidents George W

Bush and Barack Obama, Davis said. Former vice president Joe Biden, McCain's longtime Senate colleague, is expected to speak at a service for the Arizona Republican in Phoenix on Thursday

Melania Trump's $700 Sky-High Heels Sink Into Ground & Get Dirty As She Plants Tree On White House L - Duration: 3:43.

Melania Trump has had another White House gardening fail, this time trying to plant a tree in $700 sky high pink heels

We've got the pics of her stilettos sinking into the dirt.  Melania Trump is clearly not a person who has spent very much time gardening or anywhere near dirt

The first lady planted a tree on the White House lawn on Aug. 27 and wore $700 pink high heels for the occasion, where she nearly sank into the open soil while uncomfortably holding a shovel

She attended the 3pm ceremony on the South Lawn to plant a presidential tree in the same outfit she wore earlier in the day to welcome the president and first lady of Kenya

Note to Melania: Christian Louboutin heels are not gardening footwear! We know she owns sneakers and other more causal footwear that would have been far more appropriate

Later she was roundly mocked for her high-heeled gardening on Twitter.    The 48-year-old's outfit was perfect for a reception with a foreign head of state, but not for a tree planting

She and husband Donald Trump, 72, greeted Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta his wife Margaret earlier in the day and she wore a lovely and glamorous summer outfit

It featured a $3,950 colorful floral skirt by Valentino and a blush sleeveless top that matched her Louboutins

The couples posed on the White House steps and later chatted during a meeting inside

 Sadly, Melania didn't change into a more appropriate gardening outfit for her tree planting later in the day

She was joined by two presidential descendants  Mary Jean Eisenhower, granddaughter of President Dwight D

Eisenhower, and Richard Emory Gatchell, Jr., a fifth-generation grandson of President James Monroe

Together they planted a sapling that came from the Eisenhower oak that towers next to the White House's East Wing

Her sky-high heels were no match for the dirt, as they sank easily into the soil

     Melania later posted photos from the occasion to her FLOTUS Twitter page, saying it was an honor to plant the sapling and thanked the White House Historical Society for organizing the event

The comments immediately lit up with people mocking her choice of footwear. "I must put on the stilettos next time I'm gardening," one user snarked and another scolded, "Girl – you've never gardened a day in your life or else you would know no one wears 5" heels to plant a tree!! Nice try tho

" Another added "I always wear my white stilettos when I plant a tree…" before telling Melania that, "There is not a single, solitary thing about you that is in any way authentic

"  Another user was in disbelief with her outfit choice, commenting, "In stilettos and a cocktail dress? This is a phony account right?" Don't forget Melania's had some other epic gardening fails in the past

She rocked a $1,362 plaid Balmain top, red gloves and oversized sunglasses while planting veggies with DC school kids in the White House vegetable garden in Sept

of 2017.
