6. You can read it if you open it in an incognito tab.

It's cheating, yes. And I did it a few times myself. But I broke down and paid for a subscription when I realized how often I linked to them and how much I looked forward to their post election stories.

4. Way more likely it was that train ride to China. IMHO

Xi is now prezzie/dictator for life and I do believe is sick of Un's shit drawing a potential nuke or 10 from our fuckstick POTUS acd his neoconned-up foreign team.

5. Where did NK get its nuclear and missile technology?

Russia 'has repeatedly supplied fuel to North Korea in violation of sanctions'

7. I think it's from the collapse of his nuclear testing facility.

Which now is a potential danger to N Korea and China both.

I posted details a few days ago:

10. I think we are being lead to be believe that...

if you read NK Kim's actual quote he states that he "northern" test area has collapsed.

that's the telling info. if there is a northern test area, there are others.
