---Kim Dong-cheol, Kim Sang-deok, and Kim Hak-seong — three US citizens detained in North Korea for years — have been released from a suspected labor camp and given health treatment and ideological education in Pyongyang.
---The news follows Trump's hawkish National Security Adviser, John Bolton, calling for the release of the detainees as a way for North Korea to demonstrate its sincerity in talks.

North Korea has released three US detainees in the country, according to media reports, and it meets some of President Donald Trump demands for Pyongyang to demonstrate sincerity before the historic meeting between Trump and Kim Jong Un.

Kim Dong-cheol, Kim Sang-deok, and Kim Hak-seong — three US citizens detained in North Korea for years — have been released from a suspected labor camp and given health treatment and ideological education in Pyongyang, according to the Financial Times.

"We heard it through our sources in North Korea late last month. We believe that Mr Trump can take them back on the day of the US-North Korea summit or he can send an envoy to take them back to the US before the summit," said Choi Sung-ryong, who campaigns for the release of detainees in North Korea.

The news follows Trump's hawkish National Security Adviser, John Bolton, calling for the release of the detainees. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo reportedly spoke with Kim about the detainees during the pair's secretive meeting in April.

`IT’S OFFICIAL: President Trump Formally Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize`


Eighteen members of the House of Representatives officially nominated President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize Wednesday; formally submitting the required paperwork to reward the

President for his role in fostering peace on the Korean peninsula.

The GOP legislators -led by Rep. Luke Messer- sent the nomination to the Norwegian Nobel

Committee this week, the organization behind the coveted international prize and outlined how

Trump directly impacted North Korea’s recent announcement to suspend its nuclear and missile

programs.

“Although North Korea has evaded demands from the international community to cease its

aggressions for decades, President Trump’s peace through strength policies are working and

bringing peace to the Korean Peninsula,” said the letter.

“We can think of no one more deserving of the committee’s recognition in 2019 than President

Trump for his tireless work to bring peace to our world,” the lawmakers added."

This ought to definitely get the frothers going, even though they enjoyed every second of Obama receiving the award with zero basis. At least Trump has accomplishments. But I still think they should wait for some sort of finalization, or irreversible action.

Donald Trump Nominated For The Nobel Peace Prize By House Republicans

A group of 18 House Republicans has nominated President Donald Trump for the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize for his work on North Korea.

“Although North Korea has evaded demands from the international community to cease its aggression for decades, President Trump’s peace through strength policies are working and bringing peace to the Korean peninsula,” write the lawmakers in their nomination letter. “We can think of no one more deserving of the Committee’s recognition in 2019 than President Trump for his tireless work to bring peace to our world.”

Rep. Luke Messer (R-Ind.) is the leader of the effort, which he first proposed in March.

Trump has agreed to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, possibly in late May or early June. Mike Pompeo, Trump’s newly confirmed secretary of state, met with Kim in secret three weeks ago. At the time, Pompeo was the CIA director.
