Reading Time: < 1 minute
Recently Kevin Price, Host of the nationally syndicated Price of Business Show, interviewed John D. O’Connor.
This very concerning intrusion on the home of an ex-President involves much more than meets the eye, whether one is pro-Justice or pro-Trump in the analysis. This was NOT about the urgent need to protect classified information. And it likely is not about classified information at all, other than pretextually. But note that ex-President Trump has not told us why these documents are so important to him, and what he intended to do with them. John O’Connor discusses.
Kevin Price introduces Price of Business show recurring guest, John D. O’Connor. O’Connor was the famed attorney of Watergate’s “Deep Throat.
