Now it's time for every other nation to pick a side. No more delays, no more games, either you stand with the forces of freedom, or you're in league with Nicolas Maduro and Nicolas Maduro mayhem.

Our nations must stand up for the rule of law and support the leader who the Venezuelan people have affirmed as their legitimate interim president.

Do not test United States on our resolve to protect our people. by Mike Pompeo

Do not test United States on our resolve to protect our people.

We call on the OAS and all its member states to act on basic, decent democratic principles and the incontrovertible facts on the ground, his regime is morally bankrupt, it's economically incompetent and it is profoundly corrupt.

Chairman Kim continues to assure the President of the United States he is intent on denuclearization and I hope that at the end of February, when the two leaders get together, we can make a substantial step along the way.

He told you that radical Islamist terrorism does not stem from an ideology. He told you that 9/11 (the Sept. 11, 2001, al Qaeda attacks on the United States) led my country to abandon its ideals, particularly in the Middle East, the results of these misjudgments have been dire.

What did we learn from all of this? We learned that when America retreats, chaos often follows. When we neglect our friends, resentment builds. And when we partner with our enemies, they advance.

The Chinese have been very clear to us that these are separate issues, their behavior has demonstrated that as well and we appreciate that. China has actually been a good partner in our efforts to reduce the risk to the world from North Korea's nuclear capability; I expect they will continue to do so.

Everyone we've communicated with, all the countries I'm going to visit to -- we've communicated with all of our European allies. I think everyone understands what the United States is doing. At least the senior leaders in their governments do.

They both said we're gon na get out. The President said we're going to do it in a orderly fashion that achieves our objective and that... our mission set in the region remains unchanged. Those seem pretty consistent to me.

Undoubtedly, no more missiles being tested, no more nuclear testing. We're in a better place today.

There is no direct reporting connecting Saudi Arabia crown prince to the order to murder Jamal Khashoggi.

They don't make them like that very often. by Mike Pompeo

They don't make them like that very often.

If you work at it, keep your faith, and keep a commitment to serve, good things can happen. Not only to him, he had a remarkable life, but you'll do good work for your fellow man as well. President Bush certainly did that.

Ludicrous ; Washington DC parlor game, this is the thing that the American people need to understand about Washington DC : It makes stuff up. It was wholly unfounded.
