LITERARY EDNY,
Oct 2 – There
would be a new witness in the
trial of Tom Barrack: T-Rex,
Rex Tillerson, who had opposed
Barrack for siding with the
UAE and Saudi Arabia on the
blockade of Qatar.
Barrack's lawyers
wrote in to Judge Cogan on
Saturday, saying they had just
been told this but wanted
Tillerson to have to come to
court on Monday, not in the
middle of their cross
examination on October 4
(when, it appeared, Steve
Bannon would separately be
appearing in court in
Manhattan).
The
Barrack docket was filled with
sealed submissions. But on
Sunday Judge Cogan ruled that
the US' next witness must
appear in his courtroom on
Monday October 3 "as early as
possible."
Even if
the prosecutors tried to use
T-Rexxon narrowly, shouldn't
each of the two defendants get
ample time to cross examine
him, this big gun? Perhaps
Grimes' Abbe Lowell would
simply try to establish that
Tillerson never never of
Grimes. But Barrack?
Kurt
Wheelock had still been
covering the United Nations
from the inside when Tillerson
appeared there, a true
dinosaur. Now Kurt covered the
UN from outside - two more
victims of UN retaliation were
speaking out on Monday,
paradoxically asking the head
retaliator Antonio Guterres
for justice. But Kurt would
push to get into EDNY for real
time reporting of Tillerson's
testimony and exhibits. More
