Trump commutes Roger Stone’s sentence

[SFVikeFan]

Stone was found guilty of obstruction of justice, witness tampering and 5 counts of lying to Congress and was sentenced to 40 months in jail set to start July 14.

This was the guy who was caught by the FBI while in contact with Russia’s Guccifer 2.0 to gain access to Hillary’s stolen emails.  During the trial he posted the judge’s head with a rifle scope crosshairs on it while violating the judge’s gag order on social media.  


Another criminal for team Trump convicted in a court of law but Trump orders his sentence tossed aside, because that’s how dictatorships work.  Absolute banana republic corruption levels now.

Outrage is growing among opponents of Donald Trump’s decision to commute the prison sentence of his longtime friend and notorious Republican fixer Roger Stone despite the US attorney general having declared Stone’s conviction “righteous”.
Criticism on Saturday came from both sides of the political aisle.
Senator Mitt Romney, a Republican of Utah, described the decision as “unprecedented, historic corruption”.

Trump said that Stone was targeted in an “illegal witch-hunt”, prompting the global politics professor and political columnist Brian Klass to tweet on Saturday: “This is a complete lie. Roger Stone committed a series of well-documented crimes that are not seriously contested.”
He added: “This is what despots do: wield the law like a weapon to attack political opponents and protect loyal cronies. It’s a disgraceful, dark day for American democracy.”
...and you were expecting...?

It's funny how the term "fixer" has become part of Presidential staff as opposed to a mob stereotype lawyer cliche.  Must be part of being great again, hope I never get used to it.
