Special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russian probe report, which is 448 pages, may be like The Judgement. This report says President Donald Trump told his White House lawyer Don McGahn to fire Mueller. The report then says that McGahn refused to do it and was prepared to resign.

Kushner-Friedman Mid-East Plan Will Fail
May 5, 2019 By Kermit Zarley
0 Comments
Another Mid-East plan is about to be announced. Do we really care? The Israeli-Palestinian conflict never ends. That’s the way so many people view it. I post often about developments regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict because I wrote a book about it, and this subject relates to the Bible. In fact, the main thrust of my book is that biblical prophecies indicate that there will be a Palestinian state and it will be located in the coastal plain, thus not in… Read more

Transparent Trump?
April 28, 2019 By Kermit Zarley

When the president of the USA lies, especially about an important matter such as special counsel Robert Mueller’s almost two-year investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and possible collusion with the Russians by Trump or his team, the media needs to expose President Trump about this and Trump’s transparency or lack thereof, which it has been doing. This is why Trump calls it Fake News. President Trump has been saying repeatedly concerning the Mueller report, “No Collusion,… Read more
