Barbara McQuade, former U.S. attorney, explains why the audio of Donald Trump discussing classified documents he acknowledges he is not qual
The 800+ page final report by the House January 6th Committee was released on Thursday evening.
The initial takeaway is that it is a particularly well-written work. That puts it in the same class as the official 9/11 Commission Report which was released in 2004. The latter was widely praised for its clarity.
Sadly, the hardcopy editions of the report won’t be available in time for Christmas giving. But the committee has made all of it available online in PDF.
FINAL REPORT OF THE SELECT COMMITTEE TO INVESTIGATE THE JANUARY 6TH ATTACK ON THE UNITED STATES CAPITOL
After three Forwards (one each by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Chair Bennie Thompson, Vice Chair Liz Cheney) there’s an Executive Summary which runs from page 1 through page 134. The overall Narrative goes from page 195 through page 692. The Narrative is followed by four Appendices.
Everything is copiously footnoted. There are sources galore. The only downside may be that in the Narrative section, the footnotes are placed at the end of each chapter rather than at the end of the overall Narrative. But that’s a minor issue — and it does give the reader a chance to pause and reflect on each of those sections.

Strip Trump of the presidency — he gained it by FRAUD
“When immigrants procure their citizenship by fraud, we strip them of their citizenship. When a president procures his presidency by fraud, should we consider doing the same?”

Former U.S. Attorney Reveals: Papadopoulos Gave Up Four Trump Officials In His Plea Deal
If the White House thought this week started badly with indictments and a renewed focus on actions of members of the Trump team during the 2016 campaign, a former U.S. Attorney said on MSNBC Saturday that things are going to get much worse as a result of the plea agreement made by foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos.

The city of Sterling Heights has agreed to settle two federal religious discrimination lawsuits, and allow the American Islamic Community Center to build a mosque in the city.
The Sterling Heights City Planning Commission denied the AICC’s application for a permit in 2015. The Commission cited traffic, parking and height concerns about the proposed mosque.
But the project also faced heated opposition from some residents, much of it fueled by anti-Muslim rhetoric. The AICC, and later the federal government, said it was a case of religious discrimination.
Detroit U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade says the city’s objections to the project broke down under scrutiny. She noted that the spire of a nearby Catholic church is 151 feet high, but Sterling Heights objected to the mosque’s proposed 66-foot spires.
Federal law says that “cities cannot place unnecessary burdens on places of worship” unless they can prove there is a “compelling governmental interest” to do so, McQuade says. She said the settlements show the power of the law to restrain “religious intolerance.”
“We need to get over this irrational fear, when we perceive people as other,” McQuade said. “When it comes to religious land use the law requires it, and here we are committed to enforcing it.”

This is how a prosecutor of ORGANIZED CRIME sees Trump's corruption
Jun 1, 2026 #RachelMaddow#trump#corruption Former federal prosecutor Barbara McQuade talks with Rachel Maddow about her acclaimed new book, "The Fix: Saving America from the Corruption of a Mob-Style Government," in which she draws upon her experience prosecuting fraud and organized crime to understand how to defeat Donald Trump's style of intimidation and inflicting pain on others to dominate them and get what he wants.
23:24 "So you say that Trump in his second term has come to resemble a mob boss. That's kind of the overall theme of the book."
