In a move that should surprise absolutely no one, a jury in DC acquitted Hillary Clinton’s campaign lawyer Michael Sussman, who had been accused of lying to the FBI. The reason this result is no surprise is because the trial … Continue reading →
A saying that became popularized in relation to Watergate was, “It’s not the crime, it’s the coverup.” For Watergate, that was apropos. The actual crime of breaking into Democratic National Committee headquarters palled compared to the efforts to cover it … Continue reading →
It’s probably somewhat fitting, I guess – although it took some forty years – for CRT to become part of the curriculum of every law school that wants accreditation. By saying it’s “fitting,” I don’t mean it’s good. I actually … Continue reading →
