61. that trump is a murderer was the topic on

Wed Sep 17, 2025, 12:08 PM

Wednesday

our WNYC (public radio) show this Wed. morning. The expert he featured was Brian Finucane, who used to the a Chief Justice in Nova Scotia.

Here's a synopsis of the program:

The Trump administration's recent lethal strikes on purported drug boats in Venezuela drew widespread condemnation from experts in international law. Brian Finucane, senior adviser at the International Crisis Group and a non-resident senior fellow at Reiss Center on Law and Security at NYU Law, talks about the strikes and the legal issues around them.

When they post the audio of this segment, I'll return and provide a link. As you can well imagine, what he said about trump's playing judge, jury, and executioner is not good.
