GET OUT NOW: Kim Jong-un orders all North
Koreans leave China' NORTH Korea has ordered all citizens working
in China to come home amid fears of nuclear war in the Korean Peninsula. Kim Jong-un has signed off on order demanding
nearly 30,000 North Koreans return to the rogue state from China. It comes as Beijing takes a tougher line on
Pyongyang amid pressure from the US. Tensions across the region have hit breaking
point as Kim refuses to give up his nuclear ICBMs.
Chinese premier Xi Jinping last month ordered
the closure of all Chinese-North Korea businesses. They were given 120 days to shut down as China
bowed to UN sanctions. Kims order is in protest to China shutting
down the North Korean companies, reports Daily NK. North Koreans are expected to be home before
the end of the year.
It comes as Pyongyang fears Beijing its
old and only ally may cut ties as tensions rise with the US. Daily Star Online revealed China may be planning
to remove Kim from power in a bid to prevent nuclear war. President Xi is said to have a personal hatred
of Kim, but is currently reported to be tolerating him. North Korea expats have also began returning
home as the rogue state prepares for war.
This weekend, unprecedented evacuation and
blackout drills were held by North Korea. War fears have reached new highs as US forces
flood into the region ahead of the arrival of US President Donald Trump next week. China has called for calm in the region as
it urges both the US and North Korea to back down from threats. Trump has hailed his work with Xi claiming
he has him on side for tackling Kim.
The US President will meet the Chinese premier
as part of his tour of the Asia-Pacific. North Koreas latest provocation came as
the rogue state promised its threat to detonate an H-bomb over the Pacific should be taken
literally. This believed to be the feared Juche Bird
a live fire test of a missile armed with a nuclear warhead. Daily Star Online revealed the US is planning
a major missile defence drill this week in the Pacific..

Fox News Has a Hard Time Processing the Las Vegas Shooting The Daily Show
Let's move on the story
that everyone in America has been dealing with--
the mass shooting in Las Vegas. Today we learned more details
about the shooter. He was a 64-year-old man
from Florida with no criminal record, and he owned 42 guns. Oh, and also, apparently,
he was a multimillionaire.
Which means right now
he doesn't fit any profile of any mass shooter. And you know
who's having a hard time processing
all of that information? The good people at Fox News. Here's the other thing. Bin Laden, we knew who to hate.
You know, you saw Sandy Hook, -we knew that mutant living
in his basement. -Yeah. We don't even know enough
about him to hate him yet. That is...
That is so true. How do you hate someone
who's killed 59 people? Uh... Because he's not Muslim. I mean, he wasn't known
to be mentally ill.
He doesn't kneel for the anthem. He's just a rich white guy who shot people
at a country music concert. Like, how do you hate him? There's nothing to hate. I bet someone at Fox News
right now is trying to hack into 23andMe,
just like, "Come on, "there's got to be
something about him, "something about him,
he's got to have some...
"Ah, two percent Inuit?
I'll take it, I'll take it. I guess it's kind of a burka.
I'll take it." Since Sunday's shooting
didn't fit any of Fox's
established narratives, they couldn't politicize it. Right? And if they
couldn't politicize it, then I guess
neither should anyone else. Can we not have a day
in which we mourn before we engage in some very
divisive debate over an issue on which there's
been no agreement in this country
for a very long time? You truly hope that
in a moment like this we can move beyond politics.
Do you need to politicize
this today? Can you just stand-down
for a moment? I like how FOX News says "please don't
politicize this today," as if there's any time
they'd be willing to talk about gun control. 'Cause, I mean, I'm-I'm happy
to wait a couple of days, but you know they'd be like, "Oh, sorry.
We can't do Thursday. Yeah, we're gonna be talking
about Hillary's e-mails." Be like, "Oh, what about,
what about Friday?" "No, still talking about
Hillary's e-mails." "Next month, next year?" "Yeah, we're gonna be swamped
with the e-mails for a while. Yeah." But I get the concern.
I mean, what kind
of terrible people would push a political agenda the day after a mass shooting? A shooting like with Orlando. In the wake of this attack, you
wonder whether people like that should be, you know,
should be coming here. Everyone in the
Muslim community, let's be part of the solution and work together as Americans to combat radical
Islamic terrorism. It would be to the president's
best interest to rally around the country
to name an enemy and a movement to stop.
Anybody who's coming
from overseas, especially from the Middle East, we need to vet them out. Okay. That-that last guy's
just weird. No.
It's almost like he just
doesn't want to see his family. (With Middle Eastern accent):
"We need to vet "all of the people
from the Middle East, "especially my brother Hamid, "who's always trying
to come here "and borrow money from me, "and we need to vet
my Aunt Fatima, "who's always trying
to set me up. "I'm not getting married,
Fatima. "Hashtag #SingleToMingle, okay? "Okay? Block all of them.
"Block all of them! All of them." (Cheering and applause) (normal voice):
So clearly, FOX's whole, "don't politicize it" is BS. Or maybe just a way to buy time while they're figuring out
how to politicize it. Right now, friends helped
friends to safety, people helped strangers
to safety, and law enforcement was running
towards the bullet, so all those kneelers
in the NFL out there, they need to recognize when they're kneeling during
the anthem, they're kneeling, and we're supposed to be
honoring law enforcement, law enforcement that's trying
to save lives, not take lives. Wow.
Wow. Did this guy just find a way
to use the mass shooting to pivot back to
the NFL argument? Yeah, like, after watching this,
you'd be thinking, "Hundreds of people shot
in Las Vegas. Colin Kaepernick,
you son of a bitch!" But-but I hear,
what is his point? You've got to show respect
to the police. Personally, I'd rather respect
the police by reducing the number of guns
that risk killing police.
But, yeah. I mean,
not kneeling is good, too. You do your thing do.
Do whatever you want. (Applause) Like...
The people on FOX News are so
desperate to find a narrative to grasp on to, that at times, even they couldn't get on board
with their own ideas. His brother said he didn't
believe in God, or didn't have a God, or didn't
have faith in his life, so maybe, this is all
speculation, but that possibly could be
the reason. Because he knows country
musicians or country music fans are normally pro-God
and go to church on Sundays. Maybe he has
a problem with that, or had a problem with that.
-Okay. You all want to
weigh-in on that. -All right. -Yeah.
No. I didn't know if...
-All right, stay silent. -I didn't know if Steve--
-Let us know what you think. -Send us your e-mails.
-Well-- Yeah.
(Laughter) Dear FOX News, that (bleep)
was hilarious. E-mail sent. (Applause) Yesterday, everyone on FOX News
was flailing like Mariah Carey
on New Year's Eve. Everyone-- Well, everyone
except for one man: SpongeBob Squarehead.
Imagine if the president today brought up
the Second Amendment-- how would the news media
in this country have reacted? There were a lot of people
that raced immediately to, "Let's talk about guns." I've always been a believer
that you-you got to prepare to defend yourself.
And-and I had gun permits in New York and Rhode Island and California and-and... And Alabama and Georgia
in my life, and I-I was trained in the use
of a firearm by my parents, that had connections
to law enforcement. What does that mean?
"I was trained in the use "of a firearm by my parents, that had connections
to law enforcement"? The world doesn't
work like that. Like, if someone's sick
on the plane, no one screams, "Does anyone have a cousin who
watched Grey's Anatomy? Anyone?" But according to Sean Hannity, what really stops
a bad guy with a gun is a Sean Hannity with a gun.
This guy's got a machine gun.
Okay, how are they gonna take him on without a weapon?
Or if it's happening within a crowd--
if you're in San Bernardino, do you want Sean Hannity, who's trained in the safety
and use of a firearm in that room,
so when they drop the clip and they start to reload, you
got a shot, you got a chance? Okay, Sean, you answered
your own question. The shooter was 400 yards away in a hotel room 32 floors up. But you're, like, "Yeah,
but if he was down on the ground "and close to me
and was out of bullets, then I might have a chance
to shoot him down." That's like saying,
"If Tyra Banks had no money "and I had all the money "and she was,
like, really hungry, I might have a chance." It's not reality. Hannity's fantasy
was so ridiculous that even his Fox colleague
couldn't get on board.
Do you want Sean Hannity,
who's trained in the safety and use
of a firearm in that room, so when they drop the clip
and they start to reload you got a shot,
you got a chance? Yeah, wouldn't have done
much good with a bandoli... It's 32nd, uh, floor, unless
you had a high-powered rifle to take him out, but uh,
but your point is well taken. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Sean, you-you
made absolutely no sense, but your point is well taken.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
You know she's thinking,
"Dude, you couldn't even "protect women from being
sexually harassed "in your own building,
and now you're Batman? "Calm down.
Calm down, man. "Calm down. Calm down. Calm down." I'm...
Like, I'm not gonna lie-- he may seem crazy,
but after watching that, I wish Sean Hannity would
start his own security service. - -ANNOUNCER:
In a dangerous world, if you need protection,
then you need... Sean Hannity's
Private Security Services! Sean Hannity
is trained in kicking ass, throwing footballs indoors, and wearing his hat backwards. So when the crap hits the fan,
Hannity's your man.
Do you want Sean Hannity,
who's trained in the safety and use
of firearm in that room, so when they drop the clip
and they start to reload, you got a shot,
you got a chance? If you're threatened by a
shooter who is in the room and has run out of bullets, then you've got a chance! Sean Hannity's
Private Security Services-- total protection

Explosive moment Russian rocket takes off
for International Space Station A RUSSIAN space rocket has taken off from

During the launch, an order was made for the engines to be automatically turned off,

Everton sign Theo Walcott! Andy Carroll To ChelseaOnefootball Daily News
Walcott joins Everton, Chelsea Want Andy Carroll, First VAR Goal Scored! Football Legend Retires and all the latest transfer Gossip and News. All today in Onefootball daily. Panda, Panda
Panda, Panda, Panda, Panda, Panda (mumble rapper jibberish)
Hey Onefootballers, it's your brother from another mother
here, Antoine Allen, here to give you the biggest football stories of the day.
First up if you like this video please click that little button, so you can join
the Onefootball family and check out our social media channel. But we're gonna get straight into the transfer and rumour report! It's breaking news and pretty
much a done deal Theo Walcott will be swapping his red Arsenal shirt for a
blue Everton shirt.
BBC Merryside has reported that Walcott
has passed a medical. Chelsea aren't just looking to take Andy Carroll on loan.
But they're reportedly looking to buy the 29-year-old striker on a permanent
deal. There's also talk of Michy Batshuayi leaving Chelsea and going to Borussia
Dortmund to replace Aubameyang. There's a lot of chat about Arsenal today:
first up, there's two reports about Mkhitaryan.
One states of Mkhitaryan would
rather go to Dortmund rather than Arsenal. Whereas the mirror says that he
wants a pay rise if he's going to join Arsenal. Question do you think Mkhitaryan is a good fit for Arsenal? It looks more likely the Arsenal signed Dortmund's Aubameyang rather than Bordeaux's Malcom Aubameyang has reportedly asked
Dortmund to let him join Arsenal. Whereas Bordeaux president Stephane Martin has
said it's hard for any club to sign Malcom.
Question who do you think will
be the better signing for Arsenal? Finally, Jack Wilshere looks like he'll be happy
to sign a new Arsenal contract and even accept a 20% pay cut. He's going to go
from 110k a week salary to 90K a week salary. Plus appearances and success
based bonuses. Tottenham are looking at Norwich's
English midfielder James Madison.
Which midfielder do you think he's going to
replace and which players do you think Spurs need to start challenging for a
title? Done deal after playing for Arsenal for
12 years Theo Walcott has joined Everton for a reported 20 million pounds. Walcott
scored 65 Premier League goals and over 100 goals for Arsenal in all
competitions. At 28 Everton can still get some good
years out Walcott. So the question is do you think Walcott will one day for fulfil
the potential he showed in his youth? So remember if you want to stay up to
date with all the breaking transfer and football news download the Onefootball
app.
And finally, some social media banter! We didn't have any Sanchez update
related news. But, this Oldham Athletic player decided to report some anyway! Comment below if you know the song and
give me a suggestion of a lyric that you want me to read out at the beginning of
our daily news. We would love to know your thoughts on the following questions:
where does Ronaldinho rank in the list of best Brazilian players? Will Mkhitaryan be a good player for Arsenal? And will Theo Walcott be a good player
for Everton? Thanks for watching we'll see you again tomorrow!.

Donald Trumps promises to SUPPORT Theresa Mays Russia sanctions - DAILY NEWS
Donald Trumps promises to SUPPORT Theresa
Mays Russia sanctions DONALD Trump has declared that he supports
Theresa Mays decision to expel 23 Russian diplomats as part of a range of measures following
the use of a military-grade nerve agent on former spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter,
it has emerged. The White House declared in a statement that
the attack fits into a pattern of behaviour in which Russia disregards the international
rules-based order, undermines the sovereignty and security of countries worldwide, and attempts
to subvert and discredit Western democratic institutions and processes. Mrs Mays decision prompted Valentina Matviyenko,
Russias federation council speaker, to ask Vladimir Putin to act promptly and
toughly. Nikki Haley, the US Ambassador to the United
Nations, warned that immediate concrete measures need to be taken to address issues
with Russia.
She warned that if nothing is done, further
chemical weapons will be used. Ms Haley stated: If we dont take immediate
concrete measures to address this now, Salisbury will not be the last place we see chemical
weapons used. They could be used here in New York or
in cities of any country that sits on this council. This is a defining moment.
Time and time again member states say they
oppose the use of chemical weapons under any circumstances. Now one member stands accused of using
chemical weapons on the sovereign soil of another. The credibility of this council will not
survive if we fail to hold Russia to account. As tensions between the UK and Russia start
to mount, Evgenny Primakov Jr, known as a trusted representative of Putin, declared
that relations between the two nations could struggle to recover.
He asked both sides to make a step backwards
and calm down a bit. He went on: Frankly, in Moscow, we are
in shock. The whole thing looks insane. No one here believes this was a Russian attack.
Mr Primakov instead hinted that the incident
surrounding Mr Skripal was a plot to influence the upcoming election in Russia. He also told The Telegraph: "We are absolutely
sure, 100 per cent sure, that the whole thing is aimed at our elections. In my personal opinion, I'm absolutely sure
Sergei Skripal was poisoned by the British or American secret services. "The idea is to make our election look illegitimate.
[For Russia] to commit such a thing a week
before the presidential election is insane. And when we try to explain our position we
are told, 'Russia is an evil empire and you do it deliberately because you do it. ".
Mays Russia sanctions DONALD Trump has declared that he supports
Theresa Mays decision to expel 23 Russian diplomats as part of a range of measures following
the use of a military-grade nerve agent on former spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter,
it has emerged. The White House declared in a statement that
the attack fits into a pattern of behaviour in which Russia disregards the international
rules-based order, undermines the sovereignty and security of countries worldwide, and attempts
to subvert and discredit Western democratic institutions and processes. Mrs Mays decision prompted Valentina Matviyenko,
Russias federation council speaker, to ask Vladimir Putin to act promptly and
toughly. Nikki Haley, the US Ambassador to the United
Nations, warned that immediate concrete measures need to be taken to address issues
with Russia.
She warned that if nothing is done, further
chemical weapons will be used. Ms Haley stated: If we dont take immediate
concrete measures to address this now, Salisbury will not be the last place we see chemical
weapons used. They could be used here in New York or
in cities of any country that sits on this council. This is a defining moment.
Time and time again member states say they
oppose the use of chemical weapons under any circumstances. Now one member stands accused of using
chemical weapons on the sovereign soil of another. The credibility of this council will not
survive if we fail to hold Russia to account. As tensions between the UK and Russia start
to mount, Evgenny Primakov Jr, known as a trusted representative of Putin, declared
that relations between the two nations could struggle to recover.
He asked both sides to make a step backwards
and calm down a bit. He went on: Frankly, in Moscow, we are
in shock. The whole thing looks insane. No one here believes this was a Russian attack.
Mr Primakov instead hinted that the incident
surrounding Mr Skripal was a plot to influence the upcoming election in Russia. He also told The Telegraph: "We are absolutely
sure, 100 per cent sure, that the whole thing is aimed at our elections. In my personal opinion, I'm absolutely sure
Sergei Skripal was poisoned by the British or American secret services. "The idea is to make our election look illegitimate.
[For Russia] to commit such a thing a week
before the presidential election is insane. And when we try to explain our position we
are told, 'Russia is an evil empire and you do it deliberately because you do it. ".

Donald Trump's 'powerful Armada' finally heads towards North Korea - DAILY NEWS
Donald Trump's 'powerful Armada' finally heads
towards North Korea DONALD Trumps powerful armada has
finally begun to approach North Korea after the carrier strike group was spotted 3,500
miles south. White House military bosses talked up the
US response to nuclear-mad Kim Jong-un as the president promised to deal with Pyongyang
There was chaos earlier this week when it emerged the USS Carl Vinson carrier strike
force which Trump had said was heading to North Korea was actually in the Indian
Ocean. But now the battle group has finally begun
to steam towards the Sea of Japan as war talk continues from Kim. Senior administration officials blamed the
previous error about the location of US Navy vessels on a miscommunication.
US Pacific Command yesterday confirmed the
vessel has now turned east and is sailing towards the Pacific. The strike group was able to complete a
curtailed period of previously scheduled training with Australia in international waters off
the northwest coast of Australia. "The Carl Vinson Strike Group is heading north
to the Western Pacific as a prudent measure, a PACOM spokesman said. The carrier group is expected to arrive off
the Korean Peninsula before the end of April.
China hit out at provocative moves by
the US by claiming the warships were heading to the Korean Peninsula earlier this month
accusing Trump of "fake news". Confusions reigned over the strike group which
includes missile destroyers after Trump talked up his armada. The Donald said: We are sending an armada. Very powerful.
We have submarines, very powerful, far
more powerful than the aircraft carrier, that I can tell you. Rear Adm. Jim Kilby, commander of Carrier
Strike Group 1, confirmed the warships will not be heading to North Korea "to provide
a persistent presence in the waters off the Korean Peninsula. Kim is feared to be planning to detonate a
nuke test on April 25 to coincide with the Military Foundation Day holiday in North Korea.
Throughout March and April, US forces have
been in the peninsula carrying out major war drills in South Korea. Tensions have raged after Trump appears to
take a more aggressive stance against Kim. Vice-President Mike Pence told the world the
USs sword stands ready over North Korea. Meanwhile, Kim has pledged a super mighty
response to Trump after he was humiliated when a missile test failed while Pyongyang
celebrated the Day of the Sun national holiday.
British Admiral Lord West said the world is
closer than any time in decades to a nuclear strike, when speaking to Daily Star Online..
