North Korea Launches An ICBM -- Media Covers "Pocahontas"

This afternoon, the North Koreans lauched their latest missile test.  This time, the data indicates that the missile was an ICBM, a missile capable of hitting the continental USA.  We don't know if these missiles are capable of carrying a North Korean nuclear weapon, but if they're not, we are only a few months away from the NKs getting that capability.  After years and years during which the USA did nothing to stop the North Korean nuclear missile program, we have reached the terrible moment when the NK's gain that capability. Eight years of inaction under Obama has put the burden of the response on President Trump.  It all boils down to one simple question:  do we accept a North Korea that has the capability to kill tens of millions of Americans in one day, or do we go to war?  There are countless variations of this question, but ultimately, it is the final question.

So in the face of this major crisis, what is the media covering?  No surprise there; the mainstream media is still focused on President Trump calling Senator Warren Pocahontas and it remains worried that this name might indicate racial bias.  That's right; life and death decisions must be made by the President, but the media is consumed by a phony issue manufactured by a woman who lied about having Native American roots.
