A few days after calling America’s senior citizens his “favorite people,” Donald Trump mocks the elderly

By Mark | October 13, 2020

With Joe Biden leading Donald Trump among seniors by more than 20 points in the polls, the President of the United States did something both bold and desperate last week, releasing a bizarre green screen video of himself promising those over 65 that, if he were to be reelected, he would give them all access […]

#Obamagate, the release of Michael Flynn, and the desperate attempt to shift attention away from Donald Trump’s role in the spread of COVID-19

By Mark | May 11, 2020

With over 75,000 Americans dead, the worst unemployment numbers since the Great Depression, Tara Reade’s accusations coming under increasing scrutiny, and polling showing the President’s support faltering in key swing states, Donald Trump needed something big… something that would allow him to shift focus away from himself, his impeachment, and the fact that he’d assured […]

Six Takeaways from the Mueller Report

By Mark | April 18, 2019

I hate to start out yet another post talking about Attorney General William Barr, but, as I’m sitting here, making my way through Robert Mueller’s incredibly dense 448-page report, I find myself with renewed appreciation for just how absurd the conceit behind Barr’s 4-page summary was. The notion that anyone could adequately sum up this […]

Michael Flynn’s sentencing was postponed to give him time to cooperate more fully with federal prosecutors

By Mark | December 18, 2018

One year ago this month, General Michael Flynn, Donald Trump’s national security advisor, pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about conversations he’d had with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak while working on the Trump transition team, and, today, he was supposed to be sentenced.

Trump’s legal team admits that the President authored his son’s false statement concerning the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting with Russian operatives promising stolen “dirt” on Hillary Clinton

Yesterday, the New York Times released a 20-page memo that was sent from Donal Trump’s legal team this past January to special counsel Robert Mueller. The document was, it would appear, an attempt on the part of the Trump team to argue that, as the President of the United States, their client could not technically […]
