THE LEAD STORY - HISTORY MADE IN SINGAPORE: President Trump and Kim Jong Un signed a "comprehensive document" where the North Korean leader committed to complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula during their historic summit in Singapore... Trump thanked Kim for "for taking the first bold step toward a bright new future for his people." He said he hoped "to start a new history" and write a new chapter" between the United States and North Korea. No one could take their eyes off Trump and Kim, whose summit was the first between a sitting U.S. president and a North Korean leader. The historic agreement came after the two leaders held several meetings throughout the day. Trump was asked by a reporter if Kim agreed to denuclearize and he said, "We are starting that process very quickly." Trump did not refer to the document as a treaty or agreement. The joint declaration states that the U.S. has committed to providing "security guarantees" to Pyongyang. It's unclear exactly what Trump has promised Kim in terms of security. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo declined to say Monday whether guarantees might include withdrawing U.S. troops from the Korean Peninsula. Kim, who was sitting alongside Trump, said through a translator, "We had a historic meeting and decided to leave the past behind." A reporter asked Trump if he would be willing to invite Kim to the White House and he responded, "Absolutely I would." WEEPING 'WORM' SLAM-DUNKS OBAMA: Dennis Rodman, NBA Hall of Famer and longtime friend of Kim Jong Un who has visited North Korea several times, broke down in tears during a televised interview early Tuesday as President Trump and Kim held their historic summit ... In a dramatic interview with CNN's Chris Cuomo that quickly became emotionally charged, Rodman, wearing a red "Make America Great Again" hat, blasted former President Barack Obama for not taking the North Korean leader seriously. Five years ago, Rodman said, Kim told Rodman "certain things" to relay to Obama concerning potential negotiations, but the former president "didn't even give me the time of day -- he just brushed me off, but that didn't deter me." GOVERNORS RACES IN THE SPOTLIGHT: It's all about the race for governor in Tuesday's primaries in Maine, Nevada and South Carolina ... While a couple Senate contests in states voting Tuesday are considered competitive in November's general elections, the primaries for those seats aren't quite so dramatic. The gubernatorial primary races, meanwhile, are stealing the Tuesday show. President Trump will be a factor in Republican elections in South Carolina. Republican Gov. Henry McMaster, an early Trump supporter in 2016 when he was lieutenant governor, has the president's backing but faces challenges from four other gubernatorial candidates. REVISITING THE MICHAEL FLYNN CASE: Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley isn't backing down as the Justice Department rebuffs his repeated attempts to speak with the FBI agent whose interview with Michael Flynn was used to indict the ex-national security adviser in the Russia probe ... "This is no ordinary criminal case," Grassley, R-Iowa, wrote in a June 6 letter to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. "Congress has a right to know the full story and to know it now." Grassley is pressing his request anew after the DOJ once again rejected his bid to speak with FBI Agent Joe Pientka and to obtain the FBI's records of the interview. Flynn pleaded guilty in Special Counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe to making false statements to the FBI in that interview. He also lost his job at the White House after he was said to have misled Vice President Pence about a discussion with then-Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak.
