Seoul, South Korea - North Korea fired three short-range projectiles off its east coast on Monday, South Korea’s military said, two days after the North threatened to take “momentous” action to protest outside condemnation over its earlier live-fire exercises. Seoul’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said the multiple kinds of projectiles fired from the eastern coastal town of Sondok flew as far as 200 kilometers (125 miles) at a maximum altitude of 50 kilometers (30 miles) before landing in the waters between the Korean Peninsula and Japan. A JCS statement said South Korea expressed "strong regret” over the launches that it said violate a past inter-Korean agreement aimed at lowering military animosities.

Comments:

Less we forget, "Rocket Man" continues to attempt to get back in the news, thereby strengthening his importance on the world stage. As Bill Clinton discovered, firing a few blanks only relieves stress, but not the root cause. Give up the nuke and their delivery systems.

The Trump administration has ruled that gun shops are considered “essential” businesses that should remain open as other businesses are closed to try to stop the spread of coronavirus. Gun control groups are balking, calling it a policy that puts profits over public health after intense lobbying by the firearms industry. (Snip) After days of lobbying by the National Rifle Association, the National Shooting Sports Foundation and other gun groups, the Department of Homeland Security this past weekend issued an advisory declaring that firearms dealers should be considered essential services — just like grocery stores, pharmacies and hospitals — and allowed to remain open.

President Trump taunted Mitt Romney on Wednesday after the Utah senator tested negative for coronavirus, ostensibly cheering the news before going on to slam his record as a presidential candidate and member of Congress. “This is really great news!

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi issued the most extensive stay-at-home order yet in the battle against COVID-19 as he ordered a 21-day lockdown from midnight in the country. In a televised address, Mr Modi said: "To save India and every Indian, there will be a total ban on venturing out of your homes." He added that if the country failed to manage the next 21 days, it would be set back by 21 years.

Italian engineers are making ventilators out of diving masks and fitting them with 3D-printed respiratory valves in an inventive plan to keep hospitals supplied at the height of the coronavirus crisis. A Brescia-based startup firm has offered the contraptions for free to local hospitals in the region of Lombardy which is at the centre of Europe's worst virus outbreak. The crucial part of the equipment is the 3D-printed 'Venturi valve', a device named after 18th-century physicist Giovanni Battista Venturi which connects the mask to an oxygen tube. The company is gearing up to make 100 of the chess piece-like valves per day and hand them out to medics

A New Jersey State Police official expressed concern that federal privacy laws were masking the exact locations of confirmed coronavirus cases in his state, endangering officers and citizens there.

Three soldiers guarding the Sino-North Korean border in Chagang Province recently died after suffering from fevers and breathing problems, Daily NK has learned. All of the soldiers were in their late teens and early twenties and were stationed at a sentry post near the Wiwon Dam in Chagang Province, (Snip) Their death sparked panic among the military’s leadership, which initially believed that the men had died of COVID-19 infections. Hospital and military authorities, however, ultimately ruled that the deaths were caused by acute pneumonia, not the novel coronavirus, and even claimed that the deaths were the result of “pre-existing conditions,” not COVID-19.

COLLEGE PARK, GA – Former President Barack Obama repeatedly took aim at Herschel Walker, the Republican Senate nominee in Georgia who’s challenging Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock in a crucial battleground state Senate showdown. The former president, making his return to the campaign trail on behalf of fellow Democrats with just a week and a half to go until Election Day, criticized Walker, the former college and professional football star and first-time candidate, as "a celebrity to who wants to be a politician." Obama, who remains the most popular person in the Democratic Party nearly six years after he left the White House, is trying to perform some last-minute political magic

Paul Pelosi reportedly told 911 dispatch that the individual who allegedly attacked him with a hammer in his home “is a friend,” according to a police dispatch call early Friday morning. We received some links to the audio calls that were made to police regarding the incident. The suspect supposedly said he was waiting for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) in the home. “RP” references Paul Pelosi. Emergency dispatch officials provided the police officers with an address on the 2600 block of Broadway street in San Francisco’s Pacific Heights neighborhood, according to a dispatch call that took place around 2:28 a.m. on Friday.

An assailant identified as David Depape reportedly attacked Paul Pelosi, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband, with a hammer at the couple’s home in San Francisco early Friday morning. Depape, 42, is a prominent nudist activist and hemp jewelry maker from Berkeley, and a member of the Green Party, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. (snip) “My firm served a lawsuit against Paul Pelosi one time in SF after attempting to serve at other residences,” tweeted civil rights attorney Harmeet Dhillon. “They weren’t home, but staff were, and multiple law enforcement officers were on the perimeter.

The San Francisco Police Department confirmed during a press conference on Friday evening that Paul Pelosi, husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, was somehow able to call 911 before being attacked with a hammer, allowing dispatch to respond. Police Chief William Scott said when officers arrived Paul Pelosi and the attacker were standing in the entryway to the home, each holding onto the hammer. Confirmation that Paul Pelosi made a 911 call came after media reports said he had secretly called 911 so that the intruder would not know and spoke in a way that would alert the dispatcher to what was happening without giving himself away.

I regret to inform the meme makers, the narrative builders, and all those involved in the herculean effort to make Paul Pelosi’s attack suspect into a stand-in for the right-wing boogeyman, the after-party has been canceled. The pathetic human known as David DePape was, until recently, a public backer of Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ causes. At least, that’s what we can surmise by surveying his “home” in Berkeley. DePape had a “Black Lives Matter” sign in the window and an LGBTQ rainbow flag, emblazoned with a marijuana symbol, hanging from a tree outside his house.

Paul Pelosi, the husband of Nancy Pelosi, was hospitalized after being attacked in his home (the House Speaker was not there) by a man reported to be a former Castro nudist and hemp jewelry maker named David Depape. That doesn’t sound very “MAGA” but the lib media will no doubt try and make the attacker into a Trump fan one way or another. There’s something really weird about this Paul Pelosi attack story. Nothing is adding up.

As I reported previously, the desperate Democrats pulled out Barack Obama to help them in their flagging races in Georgia. Stacey Abrams is way behind Gov. Brian Kemp in a rematch for Georgia governor and Herschel Walker was up five points on Raphael Warnock in the most recent poll from Rasmussen. Obama aimed at Herschel Walker in a bizarre attack, saying Walker was a great football player, but what did he have to offer as a candidate? Obama made an analogy, saying you wouldn’t want him to fly the plane if you needed to fly. He also claimed Walker was a “celebrity who wants to be a politician.”

The Biden administration is considering delaying promised military aid to Saudi Arabia in response to the Gulf country's decision to slash oil production, sources told NBC News. It could include shipments of Patriot MIM-104E guided ballistic missiles, which Saudi Arabia has a contract to purchase 300 of from the US. The Saudis have Patriot launch systems, but need the missiles to defend against attacks from Houthi rebels in Yemen, per the report. Sources told NBC that some military officials support the idea, while others argue that the military relationship between the two countries should be kept separate from the oil
