Symbolically, the closure speaks volumes. Victor Davis Hanson walks us through the troubling legacy left behind at the FBI HQ on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ Robert Mueller, a former FBI director, was the head of the Special Counsel's Office. Remember that? And he had the dream team—the all-stars, a hunter/killer team—with the Left. He was almost giddy about that they were gonna get Donald Trump on Russian collusion.  “ That same office then gave us Christopher Wray. Why was he spying on parents at school board meetings? Why was he spying on what they called ‘radical-traditional Catholics'? Why did they go after abortion protesters, but not in the same way people who were protesting pro-life?” 0:00 Kash Patel Shuts Down the J.

Remember when Trump was impeached for holding up Ukraine aid to pressure Zelensky into fabricating a scandal about Biden? That's how Trump famously operates—pushing for a quid pro quo. That brings us to Egypt, a dictatorship with a track record of bribing Americans, including disgraced Democratic Senator Bob Menendez, who was found guilty on all counts of being a paid foreign agent of Egypt. In 2016, Trump met with Egyptian dictator Abdel Fattah el-Sisi behind closed doors at the U.N. General Assembly weeks before the election, likely breaking the Logan Act at a time when President Obama's foreign policy shunned el-Sisi for his human rights abuses and overthrowing Egypt's first democratically elected leader.   But it gets worse. Trump's relationship with Egypt isn't just about money; it's about power—nuclear power. El-Sisi's regime is closely aligned with the Kremlin. Experts raised alarms about Russia's nuclear ambitions in the Middle East, where earlier this year Russia began building a nuclear power station in Egypt. Trump's ties to these dangerous players demands that the Biden administration, or potentially a Harris/Walz administration, appoint a special prosecutor to continue the investigation into Trump and Egypt, killed by Trump's attorney general William Barr, the GOP cover-up king.  Listen to a free excerpt of our bonus show on Egypt, Trump, and Russia wherever you get your podcasts!

A recurring theme in Michael Cohen's testimony this week was his evolving moral compass. Analyzing the last day of direct examination, veteran prosecutors Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord draw out some distinctions to be mindful of, and what the intense cross examination from defense attorney Todd Blanche was alluding to. In their estimation, the state will need to address Cohen's inconsistencies in redirect and closing arguments. Lastly, Andrew and Mary sum up what to expect next week as the trial likely moves to summations.

Jason Leopold, a senior reporter with Bloomberg News, has literally been getting under the skin of government bureaucracies for decades. His weapon: The Freedom of Information Act, enacted by Congress in the mid-1960s because the feds, well, had an insidious propensity to bury embarrassing, or even illegal, acts under layers of official secrecy. Over the years the law has been strengthened—not that it's stopped the government from continuing its bad behavior. That's where Leopold, a multiple prize winning, much admired, relentless digger, comes in. The 55-year-old journalist is a legend for forcing the government to release explosive documents ranging from Hillary Clinton's secret email server to CIA torture procedures to Donald Trump's misrouting, should we say, of highly classified documents from the White House to Mar-a-Lago. For his efforts, the FBI labeled him an “FOIA terrorist,” a moniker he cheerfully welcomes.May 1st marked the seventh anniversary of his most favorite FOIA triumph, the release of details on a threatening telephone call a person imitating a Mafia thug—all but certainly Trump—made to a lawyer representing investors going after Trump after the failure of his Atlantic City casino. It seemed like a good day to ring Jason up.Jason Leopoldhttps://twitter.com/JasonLeopoldhttps://www.bloomberg.com/account/newsletters/foia-files Follow Jeff Stein on Twitter:https://twitter.com/SpyTalkerFollow SpyTalk on Twitter:https://twitter.com/talk_spySubscribe to SpyTalk on Substackhttps://www.spytalk.co/Take our listener survey where you can give us feedback.http://survey.podtrac.com/start-survey.aspx?pubid=BffJOlI7qQcF&ver=short

Can you imagine being swallowed up in the legal hurricane of Russiagate with President Trump and Special Counsel Robert Mueller? My guest, Sam Patten, was and is here to give us front row seats of the nightmare he endured with his conviction. Sam's book, Dangerous Company: Misadventures of a "Foreign Agent" is a memoir that reads like a thriller. Sam has had his hand in historical events without the glare of the spotlight until the Mueller Investigation of President Trump. He worked for Senators William Cohen, Susan Collins, and Olympia Snowe. He ran the Presidential Campaign for George W Bush in Maine. Then he left US politics to spread democracy abroad. He became an advisor to political leaders in Iraq, Ukraine, the Congo, Nigeria, and Mexico. He was also working in Russia during the early years of Vladimir Putin. When Washington went on the hunt for anyone who could have helped the Russians elect Donald Trump as president, Patten was a "usual suspect." He was working with Paul Manafort in Ukraine before Manafort took over Trump's Campaign. Robert Mueller eventually convicted Patten for failing to register as a foreign agent under a seldom used 1938 statute. It is fascinating to hear the behind the scenes drama of how his nightmare started with the FBI and how it continued as the FBI attempted to squeeze every ounce of information out of him. All the while, the national media are opining daily with the intense real time drama. Sam is getting geared up for a second wind with his book Dangerous Company: Misadventures of a "Foreign Agent" https://a.co/d/3w5mslz. Sam writes a thought provoking column about current events for the Maine Wire.

Fifty years after he was first investigated by the Department of Justice, Donald Trump has finally been indicted…for a crime for which the statute of limitations may have run out. On Tuesday, Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg announced 34 charges of falsifying business records in 2017. It is possible there are extenuating circumstances that make the case still timely – we will have to see. Regardless of what transpires, it does not change the big picture: Trump is guilty of a multitude of atrocities against the American people and he and his backers pose a clear and present danger. We review the details of the Stormy Daniels case and the other crimes for which he should be charged, among them, sedition, abuse of the pardon power, obstruction of justice, rape, election interference, racketeering, and much, much more – and we note the terrible precedent it sets that crimes affecting national security and public safety (like, say, fomenting a violent coup!) go unpunished, opening the door for a successor to commit them. We discuss the media's continued role as a PR outlet for Trump and the loss of publicly available archives that make it easier for the public to forget his other crimes. We also break down why Bragg was the first prosecutor to finally indict him when so many others – Mueller, Garland, Comey, Vance, etc – have failed, and speculate on what will happen in other state and local investigations.
