Move over, Oprah Winfrey, the leftist media has found a new heroine to lionize. Her name is Kim Yo-jong, the sister of North Korean “Rocket Man” dictator Kim Jong-un. Kim Yo-jong is her brother’s close adviser and has a lofty title: Deputy Director of the Propaganda and Agitation Department of the Workers’ Party.

The establishment media has been fawning all over the dictator’s sister ever since she arrived at the Winter Olympics in South Korea. In doing so, they have shamelessly assisted the key purpose of her attendance at the Winter Olympics: to drive a wedge in the U.S.-South Korean alliance with her charm offensive. Kim Yo-jong’s soft smiles for the cameras were enough for the media to put on their rose-colored glasses when viewing a propagandist who has helped cover up or rationalize the starvation, executions, torture, militarization and reckless nuclear threats that are the trademarks of her brother’s vicious regime.

Vice President Mike Pence, meanwhile, was present at the opening of the Winter Olympics, making a statement that the United States would not allow North Korea to “hijack the Olympics . . . in terms of optics and messaging.” Though sitting close to Kim Yo-jong, Pence made sure to ignore her.
