A former federal prosecutor was beside himself on Monday while he discussed a report on the latest court drama regarding President Donald Trump's ballroom project.
Glenn Kirschner discussed a recent CBS News report on Monday detailing a suspicious court filing submitted by Trump's Department of Justice on a new episode of his podcast, "Justice Matters." The report seemed to indicate that the president might be "picking up his beloved Sharpie and making some edits or additions to those court filings before they're submitted to the judge," according to Kirschner.
For instance, the court filing included details about the ballroom that "probably shouldn't be disclosed," Kirschner said. Those include plans for protective missile-resistant steel columns, a bomb shelter, and a medical facility.
"I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it's kind of curious that this public court filing is announcing not just to the American people, but to the world, including our enemies, exactly what kind of 'top secret facilities' this ballroom will contain," Kirschner said.
"I find it impossible to believe that a legitimate, self-respecting Department of Justice attorney authored this garbage," he added. "It's embarrassing. It's an insult to the court. And more importantly, it's an insult to the American people because that's whose interests DOJ attorneys are supposed to represent."
