The Hill’s John Solomon moves to new spot as ‘opinion contributor’
In the past, Solomon has worked on news/investigative pieces for The Hill’s site — frequently collaborating with Alison Spann — on the Clinton Foundation, the Russia investigation and adjacent topics. Colleagues at The Hill complained to management over Solomon stories that they thought lacked context and rigor. A Jan. 8 piece about alleged news leaks to the media, meanwhile, fetched a meticulous dismemberment at the hands of the Huffington Post. And as this blog has argued, the October 2017 Solomon-Spann collaboration on the Uranium One-Clinton Foundation nexus was a rickety, flimsy mess of innuendo and insufficient connections.
I have heard a lot of Big names rave on John Solomon's investigative abilities.
But I also remember an interview with him about (over) a year ago, but I don't remember where. He said he was in the room with Trump and many others with more than 30 boxes of DECLAS on the night of 1/19/21. Trump instructed the lawyers to box up the documents and get then to John's office.
He then said, one of the GOOD guys gathered up a mess of documents from the table and handed then to him. That's all he got. The other 30 boxes NEVER arrived at his office.
But to date, I have never heard him mention this again, (and I watch a lot of JS), so I've always believed that they don't want everyone knowing about this DECLAS just yet! YMMV
Not his paper.
