Get Me Roger Stone

[MaroonBells]

As horrifyingly corrupt as this administration has been, is there anyone worse than Roger Stone? I don't think so. Arrested this morning by the FBI on charges brought by Mueller.

I'd heat up the oil for sure! This links to a LOT of people. The high level trump campaign official is likely Bannon. Could be manafort but remember that Bannon stated he talked to Mueller for hours. He took over as campaign director on august 16th I believe. The date for this latest communication is August 22nd? Bannon has links to cambridge analytica. 

But here's the thing. The spin that we keep hearing is that this is no big deal. If so then why the coverup? Why lie? That's the thing that gets these guys because they keep lying or keep trying to get others to lie. The witness tampering charge in this indictment is the most explosive part for me. Because of where that can go..

I think we are going to find out before long that Bannon has been a cooperating witness for some time now.

Yeah, this isn't about what Stone did. This is yet another post-investigation crime that is likely intended to get Stone to take a deal and bring in a bigger fish. Stone has said in the past that he would never turn on Trump, but we'll see just how tough he is, considering tough-as-nails mob bosses frequently sing like a bird when faced with prison.

Funny thing is that they say they would never turn..... but when they are faced with a few years in prison versus life.... That never becomes a REAL long time!

Oh...... Oh my...... the stupid son of a bitch thinks he is going to fight Mueller. His lawyer is saying he actually mistakenly forgot about what he said to congress..... Oh shit. Mueller has the emails and the texts as hard evidence. Here's the thing about federal indictments...... you never win.

We haven't even gotten to this yet...... Amazing that this isn't the big news today:

Professional son-in-law Jared Kushner’s winding road to getting top secret clearance was helped along by a Trump-installed administration official who overruled two career White House security specialists that had rejected Kushner’s application, NBC News reports. Even more disturbing was that Kushner’s application was reportedly one of at least 30 cases that Trump’s pick to head the personnel security office of the Executive Office of the President intervened to overrule rejected security clearance applications for incoming Trump officials. In the three years prior, NBC News notes, only one application had been overruled by the director of the personnel security office.
