South Korea’s supreme court does it’s job and unanimously confirmed the removal of the previous president for abuse of power.

The Trump/Netanyahu press conference scheduled for today has been canceled. No reason given.
Huh. That and reading through the last 20 or so posts here has my Spidey sense tingling. Toss in the desperation Tramp and Co. may well be feeling today, about “the markets” and more… Is that war I smell loming on like, more than one horizon?
