Like a petulant child who doesn’t get its way, North Korea likes to throw tantrums. A few days ago the rogue state reminded the world how troublesome it is by launching several short-range missiles in the first weapons tests since President Joe Biden took office, sending a sharp message to the new US administration. But behind the aggression, dictator Kim Jong-un is in serious trouble as his regime teeters on bankruptcy. Tom Steinfort, one of the few western journalists to have reported from the hermit kingdom on multiple occasions, says North Korea desperately needs cash and is willing to do almost anything to get it, even selling weapons and drugs on the black market. Now though, these long-suspected crimes have been fully exposed by the unlikely combination of an extraordinary hidden-camera sting and a heartbroken family determined to get justice for their son, who travelled to North Korea for an adventure holiday but ended up imprisoned and tortured to death.

His father was bad. In the 90s they used biological testing to clean out prisons/families from their prisons one scientist escaped came to wash dc and clinton refused to talk to him. The secret service kept this man behind closed doors. As NK diplomats where talking peace as they were killing off whole famililes.

@SQUEAK077: China used to own large dollar reserves (4 trillion), but since the USA is on a crazy printing binge they brought that down to 1 trillion orso, compared with the 30 trillion total debt, its nothing
