US Government Finds New Malware From North Korea (engadget.com)
Days after the historic North Korea-United States summit, the Department of Homeland Security issued a report on Thursday warning of a new variant of North Korean malware to look out for. Called Typeframe, the malware is able to download and install additional malware, proxies and trojans; modify firewalls; and connect to servers for additional instructions. Engadget reports: Since last May, the DHS has issued a slew of alerts and reports about North Korea's malicious cyber activity. The department also pointed out that North Korea has been hacking countries around the world since 2009. And of course, don't forget that the U.S. also labeled that country as the source of Wannacry cyberattack, which notably held data from the UK's National Health Service hostage, and wreaked havoc across Russia and Ukraine. CNN was first to report the news.

“The lengths the deep state will go to try and distract and disrupt the historic achievements of this president are truly amazing. I don't think I've ever seen a president so disrespected. The constant need to tear down everything he does is just, well, amazing.”
I'm not a fan of Trump, but I do believe you're right that 'reports' such as the above and other such activities, are part of a strategy by the deep state to depose a sitting President, a palace coup in all but name.
