A couple of hundred thou isn’t hardball to Georgia Power and Southern Company, that isn’t even pin money for them. They have more than a century of playing political ball and when they are really playing hardball they never get any on ’em.
Trump had claimed the Obama administration had “long been asking” for the release of the three hostages, except that two of the three had been detained during Trump’s term. One of those two had been detained longer than the time of the one detained during Obama’s term of office during Obama’s term of office. No matter, dumb Trump Republicans know Trump words as the God honest truth, so you’re sure they’re pious Christians.
“Kim Hak-song was arrested on May 6, 2017. He worked at Pyongyang University of Science and Technology, a university founded by American evangelical scholars.
Tony Kim, also known as Kim Sang-duk, was detained on April 22, 2017. He taught at the same university in Pyongyang for a month.
The third hostage — Kim Dong-chul — has been held in North Korea since October 2015. He is the only one of the three who was detained during the Obama administration.”

Lying on Obama. It‘ll MAGA.
Trump said he had “everything” to do with North Korean being more receptive to discussions. A senior North Korean official said US pressure had nothing to do with the North Korean invitation to meet with Trump. Who are you going to believe, a serial liar or a fascist? And which one is the serial liar, and which one is the fascist?
And on the subject of nuclear negotiations, pulling out of the Iran agreement sends the message, don’t trust the Americans, they will never follow through on their promises, and making concessions to them will only weaken us for the day they’ll betray their agreements.
I give Beijing a lot of credit. Chairman Un (to quote Pompeo) recently travelled north and I suspect he heard a lot about how uncle-killing and missile-lobbing isn’t really a help to Belt and Road and China’s other long-term strategies to get rich(er).
Dumping the Iran agreement is just the current regime’s latest act to show how empty America’s promises are. Along with ignoring governmental and societal norms, Trump has abdicated the title of leader of the free world, and there are no clear successors in sight. Maybe Macron, but it would take the right crisis. Maybe May if she ever gets past Brexit. Maybe Merkel. Most likely no one will step up until we decide to elect a president who isn’t plainly unprepared and disinterested in governing, if we ever do.

Was it a handout or a tax cut?
Campaign money is important, but circumstances are that the donation won’t deter Dem opposition enthusiasm. Its primary benefit may be to neutralize and deter the kooks running on the GOP side.
