According to North Korea media, Trump agreed to lift sanctions. I honestly don't know if they are lying or not.
Why wouldn't that be true?

if you don't assume that trump is lying at almost all times, you might think it wouldn't be true since trump said we aren't.
I would expect that we agreed to lift some sanctions conditioned on counter obligations (i.e. denuclearization) on the part of NK.  I think that's how most international agreements work.

The list of people/entities/things that Libs now agree with/are complicit with is astounding when compared to the backdrop of History.   They're quite literally all over the map, and frankly, maniacal at this juncture.   All because Hillary didn't win.

i also assume that trump made non-public assurances on the subject of sanctions and other concessions.  however; i don't think that is typical of how international aggreements work.

Does this fall into treaty territory or some loophole that doesn’t require congressional approval

Congressional approval for what?  Apparently we either signed a paper promising to stop war exercises or with both parties promising nothing.

The Iran deal was a “political commitment” I guess this falls under the same weird category.

Great post and heard a montage of of pundits after the worthless Iranian Nuclear, non-signed MOU.   Universally lauded as an unparralled piece of diplomacy . . . before they were aware of the $5.2 billion plus in cash, of course.

Presidents can sign treatys, they need 2/3rds approval from the Senate to be ratified. There are lots of treaties the US is signatory to but can't get ratified like Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, Paris, Banning Landmines. But the President has pretty wide powers to withdraw from treaties. George W. Bush got lots of criticism for withdrawing from the ABM to try and build a missile defense system, but I am pretty sure he was able to do it without congressional approval and the ABM was ratified.

I honestly couldn't tell which question he was pissed about.  I think he was pissed that they kept referring to "irreversible" and "verifiable" not being in the document when he already said that "complete" encompassed those two terms.

the journalists may have thought the public would desire more details because complete does not encompass those two terms.

I dunno, man. I just posted the transcript because I think his bizarre "insulting" remark was referring to a different question than what was posted in the tweet.

I think it's weird too.

But I do have a lot more faith in Pompeo than I do Trump.

I mean, I don't GAF who he or anyone else salutes. it's a meaningless gesture and he's obviously a confused old man. however, it's very fun to think about the reaction this would have gotten had Obama been this big of a buffoon and done the same thing.
