Glenn Kirschner

Longtime friend and associate Tom Barrack has been indicted for unlawfully acting as a foreign agent for the United Arab Emirates, (UAE) conspiracy, obstructing justice and repeatedly lying to the FBI to cover up his crimes.

Barrack served as the Chairman of the Trump inaugural committee, which is also under investigation for possible financial crimes.

The 46-page indictment paints a disturbing picture of Barrack being directed by his Emirati handlers from the UAE national security and military agencies to push UAEs priorities and policies in the United States.

The indictment related that the Emirati officials would tell Barrack to "praise" certain UAE officials and policies and Barrack would dutifully go on national TV and do exactly as he was directed.

Glenn Kirschner

A DC Federal Court Judge, Randy Moss, gave an inexplicably lenient sentence to defendant Paul Hodgkins after he pleaded guilty to obstructing a congressional proceeding by trying to stop the certification of the presidential election results.

What are the pros and cons to the way the Hodgkins case finished up and what is the potential impact of the lenient sentence on the more than 500 insurrection cases currently pending trial? Here is an overview of those and other issues.

Donald Trump Issues a Statement Saying "if I was going to do a coup" it Wouldn't be with Gen. Milley




Glenn Kirschner

The American people may have lost the capacity to be surprised by the absurd things that come out of Donald Trump's mouth.
