The former head of the company that owned the National Enquirer told a New York jury about how he killed stories about Donald Trump’s extramarital affairs to boost his 2016 presidential campaign.

David Pecker, the ex-chief executive officer of American Media Inc., said Tuesday that he agreed to use his tabloids and magazines to support Trump and punish his rivals. Pecker also described the frantic efforts to buy and bury the story of a former Playboy Playmate, Karen McDougal, who said she had an affair with Trump.

Pecker was the first witness in the historic trial of the former president, offering an inside view of the seamy underbelly of the celebrity tabloid business, where sources are paid for stories. The testimony backed up allegations by prosecutors that Trump attempted to interfere with the 2016 election by keeping voters in the dark about his womanizing.

This reminds me along with millions of other patriotic people of a semular crucifixion that took place 2000 years ago

Sometimes our spiritual maturity is one thing: to be able to separate your self from your present condition and it's surroundings; so that the minutia of the shambles everyone else is in cannot drown you, and you will simply understand how it feels. Realize this is what your enemy created, and this is where they will go. Now divide light from dark.
