ON THE GROUND FOR DECEMBER 13, 2019 The Donald Trump impeachment hearings overshadow a new report detailing lying, cheating and cover-ups by the FBI. We speak to CIA Whistleblower John Kiriakou about the IG Report on the origins of Russiagate and about the FISA Court. And as the protectors of the Venezuela embassy head to court, false charges are dropped against journalist Max Blumenthal in a case related to that illegal siege this year in Northwest DC. Also, DC residents press their case to purchase public housing. We have Gerald Horne. And MUCH more.
