Rex Tillerson, Secretary of State

Here you will find that Donald Trump’s Secretary of State thinks military action against North Korea is worth threatening. This because of North Korea’s missile and nuclear development programs.

The US is hoping that China will help rein in North Korea. In fact, China has recently stopped buying coal from the North, which is a major source of revenue for the country.

However, the US has continued to annoy China, in particular by deploying a Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (Thaad) system in South Korea. China views this as spying on it.

So, here we have another potential ‘finger on the trigger’ of ‘conflict.’

This is the same Rex Tillerson who used a second, alias, eMail to comment on climate change while at EXXON. (Tillerson is the former head of EXXON Mobile, and spent some 40 years working there.) I’ll give you a pointer and a quote.

Eric Schneiderman says Mr Tillerson used an account named “Wayne Tracker” for at least seven years. Wayne is Mr Tillerson’s middle name. Mr Schneiderman is investigating whether Exxon misled investors and the public about climate change.

Given the Trump trumpeting about Hilary Clinton’s private eMail server, this looks just as self-serving.

No dumb questions today. Just ask yourself,

Do I trust this administration?
