Don’t Pardon Michael Byrd. Indict Him Instead. by Jacob G. Hornberger January 6, 2025 The Washington, D.C., establishment is, needless to say, up in arms over President-elect Trump’s plans to pardon the protestors who stormed the Capitol on January 6 four years ago. After hundreds of criminal prosecutions and sometimes long jail sentences meted out by federal judges, Trump’s pardons will be upending not only the entire prosecution-and-conviction scheme but also the ...
The New Orleans Killer Was from Texas, Not Mexico by Jacob G. Hornberger January 3, 2025 According to the New York Times, “On Wednesday morning, hours after a man drove a pickup truck into New Year’s Eve revelers in New Orleans, killing 10 people, President-elect Donald J. Trump falsely suggested on social media that his condemnations of undocumented immigrants had been validated.” There was one big problem, however: The killer was a U.S. born-citizen ...

But when I realized that the Apple TV+ documentary “Cowboy Cartel” revolved around my hometown of Laredo, Texas, where I lived almost half my life and practiced law for ...
The Knudsen Mystery in the Military’s Fraudulent JFK Autopsy by Jacob G. Hornberger December 9, 2024 After I saw Oliver Stone’s movie JFK, which posited that the JFK assassination was a highly sophisticated regime-change operation on the part of the U.S. national-security establishment, I read a multitude of books along those lines. Over time, I became convinced that Stone’s thesis was correct. But my conviction was never “beyond a reasonable doubt,” which is the ...
The Man on the White Horse by Jacob G. Hornberger December 6, 2024 It’s no surprise to me that so many people who live on or near the U.S.-Mexico border, including Democrats, voted for Donald Trump for president. Whenever there is ongoing, never-ending chaos and crisis, people look to “the man on the white horse” — that is, the dictatorial “strongman” — to bring “law and order” and “stability” to the ...

Hornberger December 5, 2024 There is an important thing to note about South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol’s recent declaration of martial law: It’s really no different in principle from President-elect Trump’s plans to declare a “national emergency.” The only difference is the extent of power. Yoon Suk Yeol’s martial-law declaration, much like Hitler’s Enabling Act, enabled him to ignore the nation’s ...
