From Japanese news July 7, 2019 :Pompeo said that a Pentagon team plans to meet with North Korean officials on or about July 12 at the border between North and South Korea to discuss the repatriation of remains ...
In the days following his historic June 12 summit with Kim Jong Un in Singapore, U.S. President Donald Trump had announced that the return of the remains ... had been completed.
Pompeo, however, said that more talks were needed.
We now have a meeting set up for July 12 where there will be discussions between the folks responsible for the repatriation of remains.
Pompeo did not meet with the North Korean leader, although U.S. officials had suggested such a meeting was expected.
North Korea committed at last months summit to the immediate repatriation of remains already identified, but that hasnt happened yet.

This is a story to watch.

The media will continue to be easily manipulated to the shiny object of Cretin ignorance and reality show STUPId while he makes a total freaking fool of himself every time he is given a smartphone.
Our Allies will continue to turn on us, rightfully so. Our enemies will gleefully and easily play the gigantic, mentally faltering, twisted egomaniacal sociopath lying Tool sitting in the White House, infecting everything he touches.
Families will remain shredded, purposefully, forever RUINED. Much like our standing as a nation.
And we each have ONE vote.
But millions of voices combined.
Use it and them with impassioned defiance!!!!
Fight back!
