EDNY COURTHOUSE,
Sept 28 –
Thomas Barrack
and Matthew
Grimes,
indicted for
illegal
lobbying for
the United
Arab Emirates,
were arraigned
on July 26,
2021 before
U.S. District
Court for the
Eastern
District of
New York
Magistrate
Judge Sanket
Bulsara. Inner
City Press

(and podcast here)
On September 28
when the trial resumed, Tom
Barrack was again standing
imperious at the defense
table, as for example his
lawyer cross examined a US
linguist on whether it was to
ALIGN a plan of 100 days / 4
months / 1 year / 4 years with
Trump, or to "go with." The
linguist said the latter
didn't make sense, even in
English much less Arabic.
Grimes' lawyer
established that the witness
knew nothing of Matthew
Grimes. Earlier, the cross had
been about metadata of iPhone
photos from Rabat, not
Marrakesh in Morocco. The
trial day concluded with a
lengthy stipulation about the
roles of Mike Pompeo, General
Mattis and others. Judge Cogan
told the jurors not to Google.
On the way
down, Barrack was told there
was a "press conference"
outside, and to wait. It was
about a church robbery in
Brooklyn (which Inner City
Press also covered). And STILL
no approval from EDNY District
Executive Eugene E. Corcoran.
His Office said to put in
another letter, the third,
despite approval previously
having been given to bring
phone in for US v. Roger Ng in
EDNY. What gives? Watch this
