Trump commutes sentence of longtime adviser Roger Stone

[marke]

Mueller is a lifelong Republican who was Director of the FBI under GOP and Democratic Presidents. His career is distinguished and throughout the investigation he did not allow any leaks to occur. He also was prevented from receiving thousands of documents from the Trump Administration who stonewalled the entire process. The ***** Trump refused to testify though, like he did with his taxes, kept saying he has no problem testifying but never did. You're making accusations that are falsehoods, they're not true and you do not show any evidence to support any of your made up accusations.

Mueller has a history of incompetence and poor judgment. He unjustly and cruelly kept Peter Limone in prison for the last 10 years of his false imprisonment, costing the American taxpayers more than $100 million in damages. He and Comey botched the anthrax case, costing the American taxpayers nearly $6 million in damages. And yet Mueller remains an unrepentant jacka##.

When Comey and Mueller Bungled the Anthrax Case | RealClearPolitics!

Such certitude seems to be Comey’s default position in his professional life. Mueller didn’t exactly distinguish himself with contrition, either. In 2008, after Ivins committed suicide as he was about to be apprehended for his crimes, and the Justice Department had formally exonerated Hatfill – and paid him $5.82 million in a legal settlement – Mueller could not be bothered to walk across the street to attend the press conference announcing the case’s resolution. When reporters did ask him about it, Mueller was graceless. “I do not apologize for any aspect of the investigation,” he said, adding that it would be erroneous “to say there were mistakes.”

Prosecutorial Misconduct Emerges In Roger Stone's Trial - Roger Stone | Stone Cold Truth

Kravis’s misconduct in Roger Stone’s trial is even more shocking. Stone’s attorneys were successful in getting the government to admit that the only “evidence” they had that Russian intelligence agents had computer hacked the Democratic National Committee was a redacted draft report from the Democratic aligned IT Firm Crowdstrike and that the FBI had never actually examined the DNC servers.
When this news hit the media like a bombshell out-of-control left wing Judge Amy Berman Jackson tightened the unconstitutional gag order on Roger Stone to prevent him from discussing the shocking revelation and Kravis filed a sur reply with the court falsely claiming that the US Government and the Mueller investigation had additional evidence to bolster their claim that the Russians hacked the DNC.

Are you capable of realizing that you are actually looking for a defense among far-right sources? And when you have to do this that you are clearly showing desperation? If you are so desperate as to use this garbage as a defense, clearly what you defend is indefensible. Oh wait, let me go ahead and defend Stalin. After all, far-left opinions say he was cool.

Don't talk of Democrat "perversion" when this is what you swim in. You should use the next four years under a Biden Administration to re-discover what conservatism is and demand that the GOP start representing you properly. Because as it is, your allegiance to a radical right-wing party has you groveling for a moral incompetent like Donald Trump. This has left you without a moral position to argue when it comes to justice and judgement.

Fred Fleitz: Here'''s what'''s behind the Senate-House disputes on Russian meddling in 2016 election | Fox News


House Intelligence Committee staff members found the opposite. They told me there was conflicting intelligence evidence on Russian motivations for meddling in the 2016 election.
More gravely, they said that CIA Director Brennan suppressed facts or analysis that showed why it was not in Russia’s interests to support Trump and why Putin stood to benefit from Hillary Clinton’s election. They also told me that Brennan suppressed that intelligence over the objections of CIA analysts.
House Intelligence Committee staff told me that after an exhaustive investigation reviewing intelligence and interviewing intelligence officers, they found that Brennan suppressed high-quality intelligence suggesting that Putin actually wanted the more predictable and malleable Clinton to win the 2016 election.

This may have been true prior to the recent dramatic rise in Covid-19 cases. Everything that happens from now on, including the failed re-opening of the economy, will be a direct consequence of Trump's lack of action and the propaganda put to work in support of Trump's re-election that systematically downplayed the threat of Covid-19.

Trump is not pushing indefinite extensions of dummass shutdowns which are ruining the economy. Democrats are.

I have yet to see why you think you support Trump. Even the idiot's Supreme Court appointees have backfired on you all. They have chosen country and Constitution over your radical right-wing agendas. You have been handed a national bill to pay. You have witnessed a weakened America in the world as Russia was provided opportunity to grow stronger. So what do you actually get out of Trump's malicious stupidity?

 

[marke]

Obstruction is a crime in itself, lying to Congress is a crime, witness tampering is a crime. Why do you insist on pretending they aren't criminal offences?

Obstruction of investigations into fake crimes is not a crime. Therefore Stone is innocent. Obstructing investigations into real crimes is a crime, and a whole host of democrats, including Schiff, Pelosi, Biden, Yovanovich, Vindman, Comey, Brennan, Mueller, and hundreds of others are guilty and need to be made to give an account of their crimes.

"Collusion" was a Trump word and "14 Hillary loving Dem lawyers" brands you nothing more than partisan lemming. What was discovered was Trump's desperate behavior to make it all go away because, given his documented history with Russian oligarchs and gangsters, he knew that Russia wanted him to be President. They (and he) knew that a Trump White House would be an asset and he has consistently proven this for three years now. Simple questions:

- If no "collusion," why did Flynn and Stone choose to lie about it all?

- If no "collusion" why did Trump ask Comey to kill the investigation?

- Why has Trump made it a point to defend Putin at every turn?

- Why did Trump table TTIP for an entire year, allowing Putin to play pipeline diplomacy as far as western Europe, while denigrating Democratic allies and European security organizations?

- Why did Trump, after unilaterally betraying the Kurds, hand over a great portion of the Middle East to Russia?


Clearly, without the answers to these type of questions, you people can keep on playing obtuse for Trump. Speaking of:

- Why a private lawyer with Ukraine and not the State Department?

- Why spin instructions if the call was "perfect?"

- Why did the GOP, looking at the evidence, not even try to defend Trump, choosing instead to play a partisan game?


What you dismiss as "fantasy" is merely your personal need to remain loyal to a clear traitor. For if he is a traitor, so are you as a blind supporter, right? Thus, you shut your eyes and hold your ears for fear that some reality by leak in.

I'm sure there are far more than a dozen. One only has to stay among the far-right. Now your desperation has you pretending that Russia wanted a Clinton victory instead of a Trump victory, despite the very clear and widely understood evidence that a Trump victory was the target.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said Monday he wanted President Donald Trump to win the 2016 election because he believed Trump's policies would be more friendly to the Kremlin.

See? Even his Russian friend has told you that your far-right garbage is lying to you. Trump provided you a false narrative that Russia actually wanted Hillary to win in the hopes that you would play along and keep admiring your delusion of him. You choose, before our very eyes, to obey. Don't ask me to prove any of your nonsense false. It's an insult.

If Trump is to lose, then let it be legal and honest. To hell with dishonest, illegal, immoral, hateful and destructive democrat campaign tricks.

One, as was the case in Bush's 2000 victory, Trump's victory in 2016 was a matter of the Electoral College. And he ran his campaign on pure hatred and immorality, immediately reneging on his promises to you.

Two, it is not the DNC that has a documented modern history of dishonest and destructive tactics to win election. The GOP, as high as the Supreme Court, has been found guilty of voter suppression in the form of racial gerrymandering, select poll closures, unconstitutional gubernatorial decisions, and actual voter fraud. Your backwards state is among the greatest offenders.

As per the routine, you have no idea what you are talking about and cling to a partisan's delusion. Trump will lose, and your better Republican/conservative fellows will assist because they know what they have lost with Trump. Not you though, huh? You have no idea what you have lost.

 

[MSgt]

Two and a half years. Literally hundreds of witnesses, in which lying Trump haters were cut loose and others were hanged on process crimes not related to Trump? Witch Hunt? Oh, ya.

"Literally hundreds of Trump witnesses?" What the hell are you taking about? The witnesses clearly showed Russian involvement and some witnesses even lied to prevent that truth from coming out. Mueller was even clear that Trump tried to thwart the investigation. Why would Trump seek to kill the investigation if his "no collusion" was the truth? I mean do you even bother to look beyond your nose? What was not discovered was a meeting between Trump and Putin, which is all you people used as a measurement to show "no collusion." You don't give a damn about the history or what came next.

It is the same crap you all pulled when it came to his attempt to commit treason with Ukraine. As long as Trump didn't say the phrase "quid-pro-quo," he simply didn't do anything wrong. Same obtuse crap. "Witch hunt" is another Trump word for his minions. Those who prove disloyal do get cut, which is why his Administration has seen the most severe revolving door in history. Trump prefers loyalists to fall on their swords for him.

 

[humbolt]

I don't quite understand your argument then. Are you trying to suggest that if a President engages in corrupt actions for some sort of personal benefit that those specific acts of corruption are somehow less important?

The only thing I can gather from your comments is that you do not recognize acts of public corruption as being illegal acts.



Well, no. It's not as simple as that when there's evidence Trump commuted Stone's sentence to reward him for not cooperating with investigators against Trump.

The President has the power to pardon and commute, but there is a limitation on this power. The President does not have the power to pardon and commute for corrupt purposes. The President must at all times act in accordance with the Rule of Law.



This is only a tempest in a teapot for those who do not believe in the Rule of Law and lack a moral compass.

Take your corruption elsewhere. It does not belong in our Republic.

You know, you first have to establish actual corruption. You may have yourself convinced of it, but you have to have evidence compelling enough to convince a US attorney as well.

And don't presume to lecture or label me.

I think most of the political left would rathet focus on a nonentity like Stone rather than apologize for trying to burn down our cities. That will be remembered in November. Roger Stone? Yeah, not so much.

 

[TomFitz]

Of course Mueller found nothing. He was not really looking, his Hillary-loving and supporting lap dogs were, and they found nothing in spite of their overwhelming hateful desire to come up with something with which to try to cruelly destroy Trump for political gain.

Mueller found plenty. There were multiple grounds for impeachment in that report.

But the GOP sold it’s integrity and it’s duty and 9subsequently, it’s authority) to this fool’s gold fuhrer. So they made sure he would never be held accountable.

so, Trump, being Trump, goes right out and does it again.

And the angry old white flat earthers cheer for it.

 

[humbolt]

If Trump believed he was wrongfully convicted, it would be a pardon instead of a commutation.

Furthermore, I find it curious that the people who claim to be for "small government" so often go with the explanation "government has power to do X, therefore X was good."

I never said Trump's action with regard to Stone was good or bad. I just pointed out that it's legal.

Actually, Trump himself explained the commutation rather than a pardon. Stone expressed a desire to clear his name, and a commutation gives Stone the ability to do that, if he can. I have my doubts, but perhaps he can.
