For the last couple of weeks, a lot of news out of Washington DC has centered around remarks coming from North Korea and their nuclear weapons threats as well as the response by President Donald Trump to those remarks or threats. During a stop in Vandalia on his recent trip around his district while home from Washington, Congressman John Shimkus says while peace is the goal, there are preparations to defend the country.
The threat from North Korea in the last week has been to fire missiles at the United States territory of Guam.
