Trump Tweeted: Trump and Appeals Court

trump tweeted: Trump tweeted it was an honor to read the piece, adding, As one of the truly great intellects & my friend, I won't forget! Black was convicted of defrauding investors and obstruction of justice in 2007 and spent just over three years in prison, according to The Japan Times. An appeals court reversed two convictions but left two others in place. Former media mogul Conrad Black, who has lavished praise on U.S. President Donald Trump in countless columns and a political biography, has himself a full presidential pardon on his fraud and obstruction convictions. ; Trump had taken notice of Black's warm words and even previously told him I won't forget! In 2015, when Trump was running for president, Black wrote a National Review essay titled Trump Is the Good Guy in which he argued that Trump was being unfairly smeared by the political establishment and media. Black, whose empire once included the Chicago Sun-Times, The Daily Telegraph of London, The Jerusalem Post and small papers across the U.S. and Canada, has described Trump as an old friend. Black has stood out for being Trump's biggest defender in Canada, a country where the president is very unpopular, and Bothwell said there really is no question that Black received the pardon because of his praise of Trump. The only question is why it's taken this long, said Robert Bothwell, a professor at the University of Toronto who has known Black for 50 years. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
