Prison for Kushner and Trump?

August 14, 20203 comments

Last year Senator Kamala Harris said that she believed the Justice Department would have no choice but to pursue criminal charges against Trump for the instances of apparent obstruction of justice outlined in the Mueller report.

Senator Elizabeth Warren called for a Justice Department task force “to investigate violations by Trump administration officials of federal bribery laws, insider trading laws and other anti-corruption and public integrity laws.”

The post-Trump rebuilding requires fully exposing Trump’s criminality and treason. For every betrayal a whistle-blower or journalist exposed you already know there are many more that are still secret. Next year we need a Truth Commission to investigation Trump/Kushner misdeeds.

In 2021 we need the prosecutions that would have happened had Trump/Kushner not had presidential immunity. We can’t let this crime family slide if we care about America’s future. The Trumps are malignant narcissists and can’t feel shame and apologize and so need to be prosecuted. Otherwise their attack on democracy will never be rolled back.

Germany underwent a DeNazification program. We need a similar cleansing of the Trump’s sordid influence.

Caught between the beauty of his grandchildren and grief over a friend’s death, Frank Schaeffer finds himself simultaneously believing and not believing in God—an atheist who prays. Schaeffer wrestles with faith and disbelief, sharing his innermost thoughts with a lyricism that only great writers of literary nonfiction achieve. Schaeffer writes as an imperfect son, husband and grandfather whose love for his family, art and life trumps the ugly theologies of an angry God and the atheist vision of a cold, meaningless universe. Schaeffer writes that only when we abandon our hunt for certainty do we become free to create beauty, give love and find peace. Available now at Amazon.

In 1998, Frank Schaeffer was a bohemian novelist living in “Volvo driving, higher-education worshipping” Massachusetts with two children graduated from top universities. Then his youngest child, straight out of high school, joined the United States Marine Corps. Written in alternating voices by eighteen-year-old John and his father, Frank, Keeping Faith takes readers in riveting fashion through a family’s experience of the Marine Corps: from being broken down and built back up on Parris Island (and being the parent of a child undergoing that experience), to the growth of both father and son and their separate reevaluations of what it means to serve. Available now at Amazon.
