Octopus Overlords

"I think it is possible that I will be framed In which case I will expose both illegal surveillance on me and gross prosecutorial misconduct by a number of lawyers working for Mueller"

“This has nothing to do with the president and certainly nothing to do with the White House,” Sanders said on CNN. “This is something that has to do solely with that individual.”

Sanders downplayed Stone as “somebody who has been a consultant for dozens of Republican presidents and candidates and members of Congress,” even though he had been known to speak frequently with Trump after leaving his campaign in 2015.

This is pretty huge.

What's the spread on how long it takes Stone to flip? Does he really think a pardon is coming?

I still have a hard time believing that so many people "Believe" in the office of President that they'll jump through all the hoops he sets forth and dance like monkeys for him with no dignity.

I'm excited for him to start describing Donald Trump Jr. as "some guy I saw around the house once or twice."

Playful raillery; banter.

Speaking before a raucous crowd outside the courthouse, Stone vowed to fight the case.

“I will plead not guilty to these charges. I will defeat them in court,” he said. Some in the crowd jeered and chanted “lock him up.” Others shouted support for Stone.

“There is no circumstance whatsoever under which I will bear false witness against the president nor will I make up lies to ease the pressure on myself. I look forward to being fully and completely vindicated,” Stone said. “I will not testify against the president because I would have to bear false witness.”
...
Stone did not immediately respond to requests for comment, but when previously asked about the idea he may have lied to Congress, said: “I don’t think any reasonable attorney who looks at it would conclude that I committed perjury, which requires intent and materiality.”

CNN’s ability to capture the arrest of Roger Stone was the result of determined reporting and interpreting clues revealed in the course of events. That’s called journalism. #FactsFirst

If memory serves, Stone has one of those presidents he particularly adores tattooed on his back.

If Trump really wanted to see Hillary locked up, he should’ve just hired her to work on his campaign.

I'm sure the "Con"gress will come out unscathed.

Hopefully a little sunlight will get McCarthy moving on these appointments sooner than later.

JUST IN on @ThisWeekABC: "Any chance you'll cooperate with special counsel Robert Mueller if he asks?" Roger Stone: "That's a question I'll have to determine after my attorneys have some discussion ... I would certainly testify honestly" https://abcn.ws/2G0UERP
