#1 It's a formal diplomatic letter. Jesus, people are fucking ignorant. Victims of Lockerbie got a similar letter from Libya.

#2 Since Trump's involved, someone has to question it.

#5 Hopefully if the US ever gives any money to North Korea as part of the peace plan we'll send one of those game-show sized checks that require two hands (or a model) to hold.

#7 No mystery. Diplomats use A4 for routine communicatinos, and A3 for specials. So this is likely an ISO Size A3 document, likely parchment considering the possible historical nature of the letter. The envelope is large enough to hold parchment paper without folding or creasing it.

2 minutes with google, and there is the answer. A perfect chance to REPORT the news and educate the populace.

Instead, they acted like idiot partisans and spun it like a political smear mill. Goebbels would be proud.

When will the press be held personally responsible for this malpractice?

#8 When will the press be held personally responsible for this malpractice?

Overtly? Never. Nonetheless, their share of news seeking eyeballs continues to drop, resulting in ever loser advertising revenue, staffing, and individual salaries, while Rantburg,
Breitbart, etc. see increases of eyeballs and —for those on the profit-making side — all the rest of the list.

#9 Let's be honest. Round boy is just returning the photo copy of Obama's backside.
