Longtime Trump adviser Roger Stone indicted in Mueller probe

Stone has been arrested and indicted on seven counts in connection with Mueller's investigation, including one count of obstruction of an official proceeding, five counts of false statements, and one count of witness tampering...

On October 7, 2016, after WikiLeaks released its first set of then-Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta's emails, prosecutors say Stone received a text message from "an associate of the high-ranking Trump campaign official" that said "well done," signaling that the Trump campaign was looped in on Stone's quest for dirt on Democrats.

The associate and the high-ranking campaign official are not named in the complaint, though the indictment describes how Stone told a reporter that what Assange had in the unreleased emails was good for the Trump campaign. Stone responded at the time, "I'd tell [the high-ranking Trump Campaign official] but he doesn't call me back."

An email matching that wording that was published by The New York Times shows that the official Stone referred to was Steve Bannon.

Sorry, he's not done yet.
Who is next?

  I along with a few others around here predicted he'd be next in this ongoing massive "round-up of criminals" and Roger got exactly what he predicted he'd get himself, indicted for his involvement:
  
  He's another future "FLIPPER" against you know who although he said publicly I believe that he'd never "turn states evidence" but they all say that until they become close cozy intimate cell mates with Big Bubba, you know, the guy who crushes beer cans with his forehead and does push ups with his his little finger, or they take their first frightening public shower with all the other criminals:

  In one of the more unusual things I think I've seen, Stone came out after posting bond or perhaps it was before going into the courthouse to hear the indictment and gave the Nixon two-finger salute. Presumably, he knew what he was doing since he started his political career working for Nixon.
  
  The odd part about doing that is - Nixon was guilty.

  The ONLY ones left who could possibly be surprised are Donald's last remaining dwindling number of followers who are apparently in a dysfunctional, debilitating state of psychological DENIAL, even the white nationalist alt-righters around here simply deny evidence when it's posted in these forums, or maybe they're just very forgetful due to age, but everyone else here on Earth knew the REALITY of what was coming and what has yet to come crashing down:
  
  It's astonishing, Mueller's criminal prosecutors and those in NY have been given the gift of all gifts, from what I can see, almost ALL serious federal crimes, torts and despicable immoral behavior by the Trump Campaign appear to have been perpetrated IN BROAD DAYLIGHT with mountains of corroborating data and witnesses just like their foundation, and who knows what's UNDERNEATH the surface !! It's astonishing, the evidence is staring us right in our faces, no digging required, to be simply collected and filed in the court of jurisdiction: A prosecutors dream come true:
  
  I'm still not sure WHY all the Trump's and their associates thought they could ignore our laws and get away with it, and who knows, maybe they still will, but perhaps maybe they've been promised asylum in Russia by Vladimir Putin if they are forced to flee, maybe they're all just extreme megalomaniacs like Donald appears to be in public which perhaps causes brief or prolonged spells of MANIA, or maybe their ELITIST status leads them to believe they're simply above the laws of the commoner, but in any event, they ALL must be prosecuted and impeached otherwise a dangerous precedent will be established: And this includes ALL the Russian Republican Congress-persons who have been complicit enablers of this insane oval office like McConnell, Ryan and Nunes:

Pelosi Statement on the Stone indictiment:

Here's my favorite paragraph:

“In the face of 37 indictments, the President’s continued actions to undermine the Special Counsel investigation raise the questions: what does Putin have on the President, politically, personally or financially? Why has the Trump Administration continued to discuss pulling the U.S. out of NATO, which would be a massive victory for Putin?"

When Trump says he's "very tough" on Russia, maybe he means he's tough on the Russian citizenry as he helps Putin the Terrible tighten his grip.

  With each passing day, it looks like the last BOMBSHELL Buzzfeed article will pan out to be true, but it's not necessary to indict or impeach Donald, there's already a mountain of damning public evidence already and a PUSH to get started before this Putin Lover can do more damage to the USA:
  
  Last time Mueller indicted criminals it was reported that Junior Donald was conveniently hunting muskrats or something up in Canada, as if the FBI could never find him there wearing a flap cap on his head or whatever: Just the other day I caught a glimpse of him on a propaganda channel, he was sporting a very unattractive grungy looking beard or some kind of facial hair, and then Roger Nixon gets indicted:

  So...other people are guilty, so Trump is. And Democrats have begun a large number of witch hunts, so Trump is guilty.

  In his testimony in January on the cyber attacks, then-director of the FBI James Comey said the agency never got access to the machines themselves, but obtained access to the forensics from a review of the system performed by CrowdStrike, a third-party cybersecurity firm.
  
  "We got the forensics from the pros that they hired which -- again, best practice is always to get access to the machines themselves, but this my folks tell me was an appropriate substitute," Comey said.
  
  "The DNC coordinated with the FBI and federal intelligence agencies and provided everything they requested, including copies of DNC servers," Watson said. She added that the copy contains the same information as the physical server.
  
  The FBI joined CrowdStrike’s efforts to boot Russia from the server, but then-Homeland Security Department secretary Jeh Johnson complained the DNC rebuffed their offer to help. This was because Russia was already out of their system by then.

  So Trump is known, and proven, to have committed crimes worthy of jail. I would ask just what that evidence is, and why he isn't in jail, but we both know that proof of a third party committing financial fraud is not evidence of Russian collusion by Trump and we all know that's why Trump is not found guilty of anything. And that's all we have - proof of a third party committing a crime that has nothing do do with Trump colluding with Russia to fix the election.
  
  What has happened to us, that we use such "evidence" to declare guilt? I don't like our justice system - in my mind it is as much game as search for truth - but it is far, far superior to the hanging mob we have become, where guilt rests on dislike and hatred rather than fact.

  I remember wilderness specifically stating that Hillary was found to be guilty, despite no indictment, much less conviction. Yet, we are wrong to use our good judgment to know that Trump is a lying, corrupt POS.

  *shrug* Clinton was found to have committed a crime by the FBI. When you have something more than "your good judgment" to make an opinion, you can then judge as well.
  
  More than "HE did something wrong, so I will believe Trump did something ELSE wrong, too!". That hardly counts as using good judgement.

  True. You have that right. You even have the right to tell everyone else what you think (although in the interests of honesty you should also provide the information that you have nothing but back it up with). That is a tried and true method of "mob justice" - raise emotions with false accusations, or accusations you cannot prove - until emotions are high enough to string 'em up.
  
  "We all know the investigation is not over and he could still be charged. Why would you say otherwise?"
  
  Go back and read again - I have not said Trump is innocent of collusion. Or anything else, for that matter. I defend the system of "innocent until proven guilty", not the man. A system that is very much under attack today, with everyone screeching their opinions as if were proven fact, all in an effort towards mob justice.

  I witnessed a teenager assault a 6-year-old with a broken fence post. I was 100% certain he was guilty and had no problem believing and saying so prior to his arrest, much less his conviction.
  
  According to you, I should've denied my own eyes and shut up until he was convicted. Sorry,but that's just stupid.

  wilderness, the primary problem with your assessment is that you're neglecting to acknowledge the fact that ALL Americans have access to film clips, investigative reports, Donald's twitter feed and court filed testimony, and most of us have ears, eyes and rational thought and we accept the facts: The evidence against the Trumps is OVERWHELMING, a treasure Trove of public evidence excluding what prosecutors have obtained covertly that we don't even know about yet:
  
  We will not follow a mad charlatan who LIES profusely and habitually, or who constantly sabotages our healthcare system, or who cages innocent children, or who commits crimes against humanity without a flinch, or who constantly commits crimes against our constitution and who practices INSANE Nuclear Conflict Brinkmanship with other mentally unstable INSANE dictators:

Pro-Russian Twitter account used non-public material from Mueller's team in effort to discredit Russia probe

"Concord's request to send the sensitive discovery to the Russian Federation unreasonably risks the national security interests of the United States," prosecutors wrote. "Moreover, consistent with the apparent pro-Russian aim of the tweet, to the extent that the individuals who created the webpage reside outside the United States, this contravention is likely to go unpunished."

Misinformation and Russian assistance seems the only defense for the Trump campaign...I wonder why?

Special counsel Robert Mueller and the Justice Department attorneys prosecuting Roger Stone are requesting more time to sift through the "voluminous and complex" evidence they collected.

In a court filing Thursday, they asked Judge Amy Berman Jackson to designate the case as “complex,” a move that would allow more time for trial preparation.

Mueller and the government attorneys told Jackson they are sifting through “multiple hard drives containing several terabytes of information,” as well as bank and financial records.

“The communications contained in the iCloud accounts, email accounts, and physical devices span several years,” they said.

At a press conference in Washington on Thursday afternoon, Stone said his attorneys and the special counsel had agreed to designate the case as complex in order to remove any deadlines imposed to ensure a speedy trial.

“My attorneys have agreed to that," Stone told reporters. "It is so voluminous and complex that a speedy trial is literally impossible.”

The federal judge presiding over the case against former Trump adviser Roger Stone said Friday she is considering imposing a gag order, citing the defendant’s spate of public comments and interviews about his indictment.

Jackson said she understood Stone’s desire to get his side of the story out but said, “This is a criminal proceeding, not a public relations campaign.”

oh gawddddd, not again!

32 indictments! Can't be a witch hunt, or just a PR campaign. Mueller's investigation is vindicated!

Well, this Vox.com article - All of Robert Mueller’s indictments and plea deals in the Russia investigation so far, says there are 34 indictments.

It also says that "about two dozen" are for Russian agents and companies, but none of the rest are for Russian collusion or conspiracy to elect candidate Trump.

Hold on a minute. I am not saying there is nothing here, (we won't know until the report is in), but I am saying that so far, none of the indictments, (other than the Russian agents), have anything to do with Mueller's original purpose. (yes, I know, ancillary crimes found fall under the umbrella of his mandate).

But geesh, shouldn't a claim of 32 indictments as "proof" offer a little proof of its own?

Mueller claims to have evidence Roger Stone communicated with WikiLeaks

Special Counsel Robert Mueller on Friday claimed in a new court filing that prosecutors have evidence that former Trump adviser Roger Stone communicated with WikiLeaks, the organization that released hacked Democratic emails during the 2016 campaign.

In a Friday motion, Mueller’s team said that “search warrants were executed on accounts that contained Stone’s communications” with an organization widely believed to be WikiLeaks.
