Her story is tragic and amazing all at once. Fawk Kim Jong un. May we crush him and liberate their citizens. I do see why Joe brought her on though. He pushes his political views at every turn and gets her to chime in. So, Fox not covering her story, but why only act like the other media stations like Washington Post and NY Times should be the ones pushing her story. Oh, I relistened to it and I guess since it is a human interest story and that is probably why.

This was amazing to listen to. Her story is heartbreaking and also stimulating. The things others in the word go thru and we think in the US we have it rough. Too bad all governments are so corrupt and full of self interest to focus on the real issues at hand. Joe, thank you as usual amazing content!! Hopefully this will be heard by so many, and maybe even the Times will respond… cowards
