This Week with Glenn Kirschner
This weekly series recaps the most significant legal stories of the week, including a tarp that continues to hide Trump's court-ordered name removal from the Kennedy Center, Trump's Iran deal is a humiliation for him despite his premature proclamations, disrupting the global economy, sending oil prices spiking and failing on his stated objective of regime change.
And despite his lies regarding his "ballroom,' an internal cost estimate in March by the project's contractor put its cost at $600 million, with half coming from tax dollars from the moment it was announced. He has said that for security reasons this is the only way he can safely attend a function on White House grounds, though he and other members of his administration attended the UFC fight on the lawn of the White House. - 06/21/2026.
