The PM said that for many Koreans,... the past and the future co-exist in their minds,...

with the scars of war on one side, and expectations of peace and prosperity on the other.

Lee said one thing is clear - that Koreans should look to the future, and never allow

the past to hinder any progress.

week.

Trump made the statement during his speech to the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS on

Wednesday at the U.S. State Department,... praising the territorial gains made against

the terror group.

that the withdrawal of U.S. military forces from the region... did not signify the end

of America's fight.

Back in December 2018, Trump announced a plan to withdraw the U.S. military in Syria,...

a decision that unsettled its allies at the time.

Trump Admin To Roll Back Regulations On Predatory Payday Lenders - Duration: 5:08.

Donald Trump has an unhealthy obsession with Barack Obama.

In fact, the only real thing that Donald Trump has done since becoming president of the United

States is rolling back all of the good things that Barack Obama did while he was president,

and this week is no exception.

Donald Trump's consumer financial protection bureau announced that they're going to be

revising the regulations that Obama put in place against predatory payday lenders.

Specifically, they want to take away the regulation that said that payday lenders have to determine

whether or not somebody is even capable of paying back one of these payday loans before

they make the loan.

That helped a lot of people from entering a cycle of endless debt, which is what these

predatory payday lenders had based their entire industry on.

That's what they did.

They would get people to come in hand over their car title or you know, a pay stub showing

this is how much they make.

They'd give them $500 and say, you've got one week to pay us back.

If they didn't pay him back in one week, not only were they hit with fees and interest

rates, that could be up to 50 percent, but after that week they were hit with interest

rates that went into the hundreds of percents trapping people in an endless cycle of debt

and making that initial loan that they took out, you know, double and triple and quadruple

in a matter of weeks.

That $500 loan became a $4,000 loan in a month or two, and Obama was trying to put an end

to that.

The regulation they put in place.

The CFPB said, you cannot give them money if you determine that they will never be able

to pay you back, but now Trump admin comes along and says to hell with whether or not

they can pay you back, loan them the money, and then go from there.

Charge them these astronomical interest rates.

Go ahead and rip them off prey on the poorest communities in this country, which as we've

discussed countless times over the years on ring of fire.

That is exactly what they did.

They would set up shop in poor communities and just watch that cash come rolling in,

trapping people in what has been described as an endless cycle of debt and Trump's trying

to take us back to that why?

Because he hates Barack Obama so much and of course the people he's put in government,

including those at the CFPB, uh, they also are good friends with the payday lenders and

they want them to be able to make as much money as possible because they have also made

money off the payday lending industry through their campaigns.

And this is political payback.

This is what you get.

You give enough money to the right people in Washington DC.

They will deregulate the hell out of you so you can continue to screw over American citizens

at every given opportunity in the payday, lenders knew that their day would come, all

they had to do was wait, and now they're getting rewarded.

There is a positive note here.

There is still with this proposed rule change, a 90 day comment period.

So I encourage every single person out there to get on the consumer.

Financial Protection Bureau is website.

Submit a comment and let them know that this decision to change this rule will be an absolute

disaster for the American economy and that you do not in any way, shape or form.

Support this rule.

Change our voices right now.

We have a chance to be heard, so let's not waste it.

#1 Trump Rejects Socialism in Landmark Address - Duration: 5:47.

As you all know, President Donald Trump stood up to a resurgent wave of socialism in America

during the State of the Union address on Feb. 5, telling Congress and the nation, "America

will never be a socialist country."

The president reviewed his administration's successes, most of which have been antithetical

to socialism.

He charted a course toward American greatness and away from the failures of communism.

Since taking office in 2017, Trump has lambasted socialism and communism on the world stage.

On Feb. 5, facing members of the Democratic Party—many of whom are socialists—the

president confronted, for the first time, the ideology's encroachment on America.

Trump said,

"Here, in the United States, we are alarmed by new calls to adopt socialism in our country."

He also went onto say,

"America was founded on liberty and independence–not government coercion, domination, and control.

We are born free, and we will stay free," he added, drawing a standing ovation from

the Republicans.

"Tonight, we renew our resolve that America will never be a socialist country."

As Republicans chanted "USA, USA" in response to the president, Bernie Sanders, a self-proclaimed

socialist, fidgeted in his seat, his lips tight and his hand propping up his chin.

A small number of Democrats, including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, stood up and

applauded.

Trump prefaced his remarks about socialism by pointing to Venezuela, a once-wealthy nation

that has been crippled by socialist policies.

Democrats in Congress have floated similar policies for years and have intensified the

push beginning in the 2018 midterm election cycle.

Prominent members of Congress, including presidential candidate Kamala Harris, are

backing socialist policies like Medicare for All and the Green New Deal that would open

the floodgates to massive government expansion into the health care and energy sectors.

While calls for socialist policies received a significant amount of media attention during

and after the 2018 election, the proposals are not new to American politics.

"Obamacare" nearly achieved the socialist dream of the total government takeover of

the entire health care insurance industry, paving the way toward the goals enshrined in Medicare

for All.

Under the guise of progressivism and other causes benevolently named, socialism–the

preliminary stage of communism–has penetrated deeply into U.S. politics, higher education,

the sciences, and culture.

Trevor Loudon, an author and contributor to The Epoch Times who has spent more than 30 years

researching radical left, Marxist, and terrorist movements and their covert influence on mainstream politics said,

"It was great to see him throw down the gauntlet and name the problem because the

biggest political problem is the danger of socialism and communism right now.

"A quarter of his audience were socialists, so he was throwing down the gauntlet to the

left wing of the Democratic Party—which is now the main leading wing—and telling

them that their agenda was not acceptable."

The Congressional Progressive Caucus was co-founded by Bernie Sanders, a self-proclaimed socialist.

The caucus swelled by 26 seats after the 2018 election to a roster of 100 members.

Many members have links to the Democrat Socialists of America and the Communist Party of USA,

according to Loudon's research. And as many of you know, Trevor Loudon is also the author of many of Declassified's stories right here on this channel.

The bulk of what Trump has achieved during his first two years in office either rolled

back socialist policies or prevented the ideology's further encroachment on America.

The president took steps to protect religious freedom, insulating against socialism's promotion

of atheism and attacks on religion.

He also spearheaded the passage of a major tax-cut package and ordered an unprecedented

purge of government regulations.

The moves were a major blow to socialists' moves to expand the government via new regulations,

and to fund that growth by raising taxes.

William Gairdner, an author and independent scholar, said,

"[Trump] sees that America has been rushing toward the socialist brink for a long time,

perhaps since the middle of the last century and very much accelerated during the Obama

presidency, which was scary for anyone who believes as he does and certainly as I do

that socialism is not going to go." He also said, "That was strategic.

He wanted to cut the Democrats off at the pass."

Trump's choice of Venezuela stood out, considering

that examples of socialism's failures abound.

The president has taken a tough stance on Maduro's regime and intensified pressure

on the socialist dictator to step down.

In January, Venezuela's National Assembly declared Maduro's presidency illegitimate.

Juan Guaidó, the assembly's leader, stepped forward as an interim president.

Maduro refused to give up control.

Trump immediately recognized Guaidó, triggering a virtual global referendum on socialism.

Free-world nations, like Germany and Australia, sided with Guaidó.

Socialist and communist regimes, like those in China, North Korea, and Cuba, backed Maduro.

Russia, which is not socialist on paper, has been propping up socialists and communists

in South America for decades.

The Kremlin backed Maduro.

Trump VS. Jong-Un VS. Zuma / Donald & Melania Are Fighting -TREVOR NOAH -There's A Gupta On My Stoep - Duration: 8:31.

I never thought I l'd say this, but Kim Jong-un

up against Donald Trump is a strange situation

cause you don't know who the crazy person is.

Kim Jong-un actually released a statement

The leader of North-Korea released a statement saying

Donald Trump is a psychopath,

I can not work with him.

Do you know how insane that is?

For him to send a message about Donald Trump.

Where he's just like,

"Guys I am wild, but I mean, I can't, I don't know."

"This guy"

And Donald is crazy.

people ask me all the time, they go like,

"Trevor come on, you are not being serious."

I meet South Africans, they go like,

"Trevor come on man, Donald Trump cant be that crazy man, hey?"

"Come on you have got to give him a bit of credit, something."

Guys, that guy's crazy.

And then they would be like,"Is he like, is he that stupid in real life?"

Then you're like, yeah.

Then they are like, "Is he like, is he stupid like Malema and them?"

Then I'm like, no guys, guys.

Julius is smart, don't play those games.

I know people get tricked by Julius Malema and Jacob,

those guys are smart.

Especially Jacob Zuma, people get fooled by him.

You know?

because he has got that cute vibe.

always giggling. * Zuma laughing*

That guy is a master tactician

Look now, a vote of no confidence.

Survived, again.

People are shocked, "How did he do it?"

"How did he do it?"

If you watch "Days of our lives", he is the Stevano Damero of this game.

Everyday he wakes up, looking in the mirror going,

"Like sands through the hourglass"

"so are the days of our lives"

*Zuma laughing*

And a lot of people make that mistake, I've realized

a lot of people make that mistake.

They think our politicians are stupid

maybe it's cause of how they speak,

maybe it is because of how they sound.

Jacob Zuma is smart.

Jacob Zuma was the head of intelligence for the ANC during the struggle.

Jacob Zuma started the chess team on Robben Island

a lot of people don't know that.

He started the chess team, yeah.

That is why he is so good with moving the cabinet around.

"Yeah, Pravin like that"

"because he's a horse"

"check"

Donald Trump is not like that.

One thing I'll say about Jacob Zuma,

catch him in a corner, ask him anything about policy.

That guy will rattle it off.

He may not know how to read,

but he knows what he is talking about.

Donald Trump has no clue

about any policy what-so-ever.

He knows nothing about Geo-politics, he knows nothing about his healthcare.

Every time Donald Trump answers a question

you know he doesn't know the answer,

because he answers it like he is a

contestant in one of his own beauty pageants

that is how he answers it.

Every time you see Donald Trump on TV you can

see he is just making it up as he goes along.

They'd be like, " Mr. President, can you tell us about your healthcare roll-out

"and how pre-existing conditions are going to be covered?"

"I know"

"We're gonna have so much coverage folks"

"the best coverage, all the coverage."

"I'm gonna get it, all of it"

"It's gonna be so good, great"

"some people even say, the best."

"but how is it gonna to work"

"It's gonna work, it is just gonna work folks"

"It's gonna work"

"It's gonna be done"

"I'm gonna do it"

"It's gonna be done."

"and the people in South Africa and Iraq"

"and the countries, and health"

"and insurance"

"and we're gonna do all the things, healthy"

"with the money, and also"

"Thank you."

Donald Trump is losing his mind.

Saying the craziest things.

"We're gonna build a wall"

"and Mexico's gonna pay for it."

and I love how Mexico's like,

"We ain't paying for shit, man"

"We might build your wall but we ain't paying for it, man."

"Stupid."

Donald Trump is just doing his own thing.

Everything seems to be going wrong for him.

Now he's getting ready to start a war,

launch a nuclear weapon

"North Korea"

"they will know"

"fire and fury."

"Fury and fire"

"Fast and furious"

"Tokyo drift"

"like no ones ever seen.

This guy's gonna blow up the world people.

He's not having a good time.

So I correct people all the time, I go look man

say what you want about Jacob Zuma, he knows his policy.

Yeah. Doesn't mean he is getting things right.

Doesn't mean he is doing the correct things,

but he knows his policy.

You cant say they're the same.

You know?

And say what you want about Jacob Zuma,

but he knows how to handle his ladies.

Yeah.

He doesn't, he doesn't have any problems there?

Donald Trump

walking around in public, his wife smacking his hand away.

* Smack*

In public.

Do you know how embarrassing that was?

Donald Trump was there, trying to hold Melania's hand.

She just slapped it away, he tried to grab it

and she just *smack*

and then the second time he tried to grab it and she just,

and she just did a little thing.

and everyone was like, "are they okay?"

"are they fighting?"

I was like yeah, of course they're fighting

they're having a horrible time.

completely horrible time,

and you don't even need to see the video of the

hands to know that they're having a bad time

I've had a theory for a long time that Donald Trump and his wife

are not in a happy relationship.

And I don't want to start any rumors, but I've noticed this.

You know? I've noticed it in the speeches.

Every time Donald Trump and Melania speak,

it seems like they're throwing shade at each other.

They're giving a speech but they're

actually talking trash about the spouse.

Every time, all you have to do is listen

to the subtext of what they're saying.

For instance Melania Trump came out

She made a speech about her platform as first-lady

In America every first-lady gets to choose what her dream jobs gonna be

what they're going to be doing to help the country.

Michelle Obama said shes gonna help kids get healthy meals and workout.

Melania Trump came out and what does she choose?

She came out, no one forced her. and she was like,

"as first-lady"

"I believe we need to fight"

"against the cyber-bullying"

"All of the people on the Twitter who are saying the bad things"

"we need to stop them."

"We need to make sure that they can not carry on what they are doing."

I was like, do you know your husband lady?

and now I realize she was doing it on purpose.

They were having a fight.

Yeah.

She probably got home that night,

dropped her keys on the table

Donald Trump was sitting in the living room, turned on the lights.

*lights coming on*

"Hi Melania."

"I saw"

"what you said about me"

on the news. It was very

"not nice."

"Oh, hello Donald."

"I didn't see you sitting over there."

"I thought you were watching the cartoons."

"You know I was watching the news, I watch all the news."

"Fake news."

"So what are you going to do about it Donald?"

"You want a war, you've got a war."

"I'm gonna get you Melania, you're gonna pay."

"Do your worst Donald."

"Oh, it's on."

"I'm the best at worst."

The next day he came out,

gave a speech. What did he say?

"we've got to get rid of all these immigrants folks."

"All these immigrants need to leave this country."

"Your move Melania."

She went to a woman's conference,

"we need to stop sexual assault"

"the men who are grabbing the ladies"

"without the permission, we need to..."

I was like, "yo, you guys need to sort your shit out at home man."

Nancy Pelosi at the State of the Union, Trump's Childhood Home - Monologue - Duration: 3:44.

-Let's get to the news.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi appeared to give

a sarcastic clap at President Trump

during part of last night's State of the Union

when Trump tried to denounce division and politics.

I mean, look at that.

[ Laughter ]

That's the way you clap when your husband

finally puts the toilet paper on the roller.

[ Laughter and applause ]

"You learn! Look at you!"

President Trump today attended a dinner

with the host of the National Prayer Breakfast.

Of course, for Trump, every breakfast is a prayer breakfast.

[ Laughter ]

"Please, Lord, let there be pancakes."

[ Laughter ]

Officials in Boston are saying 12 people were arrested

yesterday during the New England Patriots victory parade.

So at least it was more exciting than the game.

[ Laughter and applause ]

New York's L train connecting Manhattan and Brooklyn

was shut down temporarily yesterday

after passengers complained of strong fumes in stations

that caused vomiting.

Even worse, one passenger passed out...CDs.

[ Laughter ]

President Trump's childhood home in Queens, New York,

is currently on sale for almost $3 million,

and it still has all the original teeth marks

on the lead-painted window sills.

[ Laughter and applause ]

That's right.

President Trump's childhood home in Queens

is currently up for sale.

And according to "The Wall Street Journal,"

one of the bedrooms features a sign pointing to the spot

where he was likely conceived.

It's sort of a map for any time travelers

looking to save the world.

[ Laughter and applause ]

"We got to get this bed out of here."

[ Cheers and applause ]

Tech regulators have announced that 59 new emoji characters

will be available for use starting in the fall,

including a hand pinching its thumb and finger together,

which some are calling a tiny-penis gesture.

[ Laughter ]

While others are calling it a normal-sized penis gesture.

[ Laughter and applause ]

That's fine! [ Laughter ]

That's right.

59 new emojis will be available this fall,

including a wheelchair and a flamingo,

which is perfect if you need to tell someone

your flamingo has been in an accident.

[ Laughter ]

"Yeah, no. It was the standing leg."

[ Laughter and applause ]

According to a new survey, men tend to wait over six months

before passing gas in front of their significant other.

"Or six minutes," said Melania.

[ Laughter and applause ]

"This is such a great first date. Should we get chili?"

[ Laughter ]

And finally, a Cleveland mom was arrested this week

after a child brought marijuana-infused gummy candies

to school and shared them with at least 12 other students.

Teachers became suspicious when the school band sounded good.

WELCOME ONE AND ALL TO "THE LATE SHOW."

I'M YOUR HOST, STEPHEN COLBERT.

WE'RE ALL-- WE'RE ALL STILL RECOVERING FROM TRUMP'S STATE OF

THE UNION.

THIS SHOW WAS LIVE LAST NIGHT, WHICH EXPLAINS WHY TODAY I AM

DEAD.

( LAUGHTER ) BEFORE THE SHOW, I WAS BACK

STAGE CHUGGING RED BULL AND LICKING NINE-VOLT BATTERIES JUST

TO FEEL SOMETHING.

( LAUGHTER ) THE ONLY MOMENT FROM LAST NIGHT

THAT ANYONE'S GOING TO REMEMBER IS WHEN TRUMP MADE THIS THREAT:

>> AN ECONOMIC MIRACLE IS TAKING PLACE IN THE UNITED STATES, AND

THE ONLY THING THAT CAN STOP IT ARE FOOLISH WARS, POLITICS, OR

RIDICULOUS PARTISAN INVESTIGATIONS.

IF THERE IS GOING TO BE PEACE AND LEGISLATION, THERE CANNOT BE

WAR AND INVESTIGATION.

( BOOING ).

>> Stephen: OH, WAIT A SECOND!

THAT'S-- I DON'T KNOW.

I THINK THAT'S KIND OF CUTE.

HE THREATENED OUR DEMOCRACY WITH A LITTLE POEM!

(AS TRUMP ): "THERE ONCE WAS A DONALD FROM QUEENS,

WHO CAME FROM A FAMILY OF MEANS DON'T LOOK INTO MY STUFF,

HE CRIED IN A HUFF BECAUSE YOU'LL FIND OUT I

BETRAYED OUR COUNTRY TO THE RUSSIANS."

( LAUGHTER ) ( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )

THAT-- "DOES THAT NOT RHYME?" "THERE ONE WAS A PARTISAN WITCH

HUNT."

THAT WASN'T TRUMP'S ONLY FORAY INTO THE LYRICAL ARTS.

HE REALLY WENT WHOLE-HOG ON ALLITERATION:

>> COOPERATION, COMPROMISE, AND THE COMMON GOOD.

SMART, STRATEGIC, SEE-THROUGH STEEL.

REVENGE, RESISTANCE, AND RETRIBUTION.

GREATNESS OR GRIDLOCK, RESULTS OR RESISTANCE, VISION OR

VENGEANCE.

>> Stephen: THAT IS PAINFUL PANDERING PABLUM FROM PUTIN'S

PET PRESIDENT.

( LAUGHTER ) ( APPLAUSE )

THERE'S A LOT OF ILLITERATION.

NOW, THERE WERE A LOT OF GUESTS IN ATTENDANCE LAST NIGHT.

THE ONE GETTING THE MOST ATTENTION IS AN 11-YEAR-OLD BOY

WHO SAYS HE'S BEEN BULLIED BECAUSE OF HIS LAST NAME: TRUMP.

AND I ACTUALLY THINK THAT'S NICE, OKAY.

THAT WAS VERY SWEET OF THEM TO DO THAT FOR HIM.

YOU CAN'T BULLY SOME KID JUST BECAUSE HIS LAST NAME IS THE

SAME NAME AS AN UNPOPULAR PRESIDENT.

PERSONALLY, I WAS AGAINST IMPEACHING CYNTHIA NIXON.

( LAUGHTER ) THIS YOUNG MAN WAS INVITED BY

THE FIRST LADY TO REPRESENT HER "BE BEST" INITIATIVE.

WELL, THAT MAKES SENSE.

(AS MELANIA ): "I ALSO FIND IT VERY HARD TO HAVE THE LAST NAME

TRUMP."

OKAY.

I GET YOU.

WE GET EACH OTHER.

WE GET--" ( APPLAUSE )

BUT IT DOES SEEM SLIGHTLY NARCISSISTIC THAT THE ONLY WAY

THE PRESIDENT CAN EMPATHIZE WITH A BULLIED CHILD IS IF THEY SHARE

THE SAME NAME.

(AS TRUMP ): "LOOK, YOU CAN'T ATTACK SOMEONE JUST FOR HAVING

THE LAST NAME TRUMP.

WHAT'S NEXT?

ARE YOU GOING TO INDICT DONALD TRUMP JR. JUST BECAUSE HE HAS

THE LAST NAME TRUMP?

AND 'CAUSE ALL THE RUSSIA STUFF."

( APPLAUSE ) NOW, THE PRESIDENT DIDN'T-- "YOU

CAN'T-- IT'S NOT.

IT'S WRONG.

BULLYING.

BULLYING."

THE PRESIDENT DIDN'T MENTION THE TRUMP BOY LAST NIGHT BUT THE

CHILD WAS ALL OVER THE INTERNET BECAUSE DURING THE SPEECH, HE

FELL ASLEEP.

THAT'S REALLY LOVELY.

THAT'S REALLY SWEET.

AND YOU CAN'T BLAME THE KID.

WHO THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE A FUN EVENING FOR AN 11-YEAR-OLD?

"HEY, LITTLE FELLA, HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO SIT QUIETLY THROUGH

A TWO-HOUR POLITICAL SPEECH BY SOMEBODY ELSE'S GRANDPA?"

"HE'S OUT.

AND HE'S OUT."

TRUMP ALSO TOOK A SWIPE AT FOLKS WHO WANT TO RAISE TAXES ON RICH

PEOPLE.

BUT TRUMP'S GOT ONE PROBLEM.

TURNS OUT THAT'S REALLY, REALLY POPULAR, AS THEY DISCOVERED ON

FOX NEWS.

>> WE PULLED UP THIS LATEST FOX NEWS POLL ON THE ISSUE WHETHER

AMERICANS ARE FOR RAISING TAXES ON THE WEALTHY, ON INCOMES OVER

10 MILLION BUCKS.

THOSE IN FAVOR OF THAT 70%, CHARLES!

OVER A MILLION DOLLARS IN INCOME, 65% ARE IN FAVOR OF

RAISING TAXES.

>> THE IDEA OF FAIRNESS HAS BEEN PROMOTED IN OUR SCHOOLS FOR A

LONG TIME.

AND WE'RE STARTING TO SEE KIDS WHO GREW UP IN THIS NOTION THAT

FAIRNESS, ABOVE ALL-- AND NOW THEY ARE BECOMING VOTING AGE,

AND THEY ARE BRINGING THIS IDEOLOGY WITH THEM.

( LAUGHTER ) >> Stephen: YES, OUR CHILDREN

ARE BEING BRAINWASHED WITH THE RADICAL IDEOLOGY OF FAIR.

WHAT'S NEXT?

AND BALANCED?

( LAUGHTER ) ( APPLAUSE )

WRONG!

IT'S WRONG, I SAY!

( APPLAUSE ) WRONG!

IT STOPS HERE!

HI, BRET.
