Clinton committed perjury in the Monica Lewinsky matter (and a federal judge affirmed that view), law professors like Harvard Professor Laurence Tribe insisted that perjury was not an impeachable offense. (I would testify at that same impeachment hearing on the other side). Clinton also committed acts that could have been charged as obstruction and witness tampering. Faced with clear criminal conduct like perjury, the media instead attacked the man who helped bring that conduct to light. Major media and Democratic figures vilified Starr in grotesquely unfair hit pieces on an almost weekly basis. Video Despite the unrelenting personal attacks, Starr remained professional and respectful through this nightmare. He remained firmly tethered to core principles. He once said that, “truth is a bedrock concept in morality and law.” It was his North Star and guided everything that he did; everything that he believed. Starr loved being a lawyer. He found a profession that valued his penchant for precision and persuasion. In later years, he would continue to take on major cases like his roles in the Jeffrey Epstein case and in the first
while the students were not actually attending school – at all. Here’s the bottom line: I (and scores like me) became a teacher to positively impact the next generation. We didn’t sign up to get involved in education politics. We didn’t sign up to teach controversial topics best left to parents. And we certainly didn’t sign up to strike. Teaching is a great vocation until the union folks get involved. Then it’s sheer misery. Video The good news, though, is that fairly recent Supreme Court decisions have made it so teachers are no longer bound to endless union membership. Sadly, not all teachers know this. Good teachers need to exit the unions en masse and move America one step closer to ending the education mafia’s grip on our schools. Teaching is a great vocation until the union folks get involved. Then it’s sheer misery. CLICK HERE TO GET THE OPINION NEWSLETTER But back to my scab-less career. Thankfully, not once in 30-plus years did my union initiate a strike. Seriously, this is good news. Our students never suffered through that. However, and this is where it gets sad for me: I never once got to cross a picket line. I say that with tongue-in-cheek, and this is not about me. However, as I hear about strikes happening around the country, I wonder what these unions are thinking by stripping kids of their back-to-school excitement. I mourn for the stress put on families as union-focused teachers put their own interests over those of their students. And I so wish I could show up and walk through the picket line, shaking my head at their ironic signs and silly chants, and go inside and teach some kids.

Trump impeachment. I did not always agree with his clients or causes but he remained one of the top litigators in the country. CLICK HERE TO GET THE OPINION NEWSLETTER I did not always agree with his clients or causes but he remained one of the top litigators in the country. He also quietly continued his life of service in other ways, including representing indigent death row inmates. After Starr was stripped of his presidency at Baylor University following a sexual abuse scandal on the football team, he resigned from his position. He insisted that he was not aware of the scandal until it became public. However, he declared that the university needed a clean break and “the captain goes down with the ship.” He walked away and again refused to exchange barbs in the media with critics who superficially played up the controversy as Starr’s “own sex scandal.” In this image from video, Ken Starr, an attorney for President Donald Trump, speaks during the impeachment trial against Trump in the Senate at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, Monday, Jan. 27, 2020. (Senate Television via AP) Indeed, during the Clinton scandal and for the decades that followed, I never heard Starr utter a profane or mean-spirited thought. Despite years of grossly unfair treatment in the media, Starr retained his signature calm and civility. Starr refused to allow the hate and the harassment to corrupt him or his view of others. He came too far from that dirt road in Thalia to lose his way in Washington. To the end, he was a man of faith. Not just in the religious sense, but a faith in the legal system and the transcendent power of truth. Ken Starr was not just a great lawyer; he was an even greater rarity in Washington, he was a decent man.
