Roger Stone sentence commuted.

Statement from the Whitehouse Press Secretary reads like a vetteman post. :D


Today, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Grant of Clemency commuting the unjust sentence of Roger Stone, Jr.
Roger Stone is a victim of the Russia Hoax that the Left and its allies in the media perpetuated for years in an attempt to undermine the Trump Presidency. There was never any collusion between the Trump Campaign, or the Trump Administration, with Russia. Such collusion was never anything other than a fantasy of partisans unable to accept the result of the 2016 election. The collusion delusion spawned endless and farcical investigations, conducted at great taxpayer expense, looking for evidence that did not exist. As it became clear that these witch hunts would never bear fruit, the Special Counsel’s Office resorted to process-based charges leveled at high-profile people in an attempt to manufacture the false impression of criminality lurking below the surface. These charges were the product of recklessness borne of frustration and malice.This is why the out-of-control Mueller prosecutors, desperate for splashy headlines to compensate for a failed investigation, set their sights on Mr. Stone. Roger Stone is well known for his nearly 50 years of work as a consultant for high-profile Republican politicians, including President Ronald Reagan, Senator Bob Dole, and many others. He is also well known for his outspoken support for President Donald J. Trump and opposition to Hillary Clinton.

Mr. Stone was charged by the same prosecutors from the Mueller Investigation tasked with finding evidence of collusion with Russia. Because no such evidence exists, however, they could not charge him for any collusion-related crime. Instead, they charged him for his conduct during their investigation. The simple fact is that if the Special Counsel had not been pursuing an absolutely baseless investigation, Mr. Stone would not be facing time in prison.

In addition to charging Mr. Stone with alleged crimes arising solely from their own improper investigation, the Mueller prosecutors also took pains to make a public and shameful spectacle of his arrest. Mr. Stone is a 67-year-old man, with numerous medical conditions, who had never been convicted of another crime. But rather than allow him to surrender himself, they used dozens of FBI agents with automatic weapons and tactical equipment, armored vehicles, and an amphibious unit to execute a pre-dawn raid of his home, where he was with his wife of many years. Notably, CNN cameras were present to broadcast these events live to the world, even though they swore they were not notified—it was just a coincidence that they were there together with the FBI early in the morning.

Not only was Mr. Stone charged by overzealous prosecutors pursing a case that never should have existed, and arrested in an operation that never should have been approved, but there were also serious questions about the jury in the case. The forewoman of his jury, for example, concealed the fact that she is a member of the so-called liberal “resistance” to the Trump Presidency. In now-deleted tweets, this activist-juror vividly and openly attacked President Trump and his supporters.

Mr. Stone would be put at serious medical risk in prison. He has appealed his conviction and is seeking a new trial. He maintains his innocence and has stated that he expects to be fully exonerated by the justice system. Mr. Stone, like every American, deserves a fair trial and every opportunity to vindicate himself before the courts. The President does not wish to interfere with his efforts to do so. At this time, however, and particularly in light of the egregious facts and circumstances surrounding his unfair prosecution, arrest, and trial, the President has determined to commute his sentence. Roger Stone has already suffered greatly. He was treated very unfairly, as were many others in this case. Roger Stone is now a free man!

Can’t have anyone who colluded with Russia as part of the Trump campaign in prison. He needs to be out in public so everyone can be reminded of what Trump owes to Putin.
 
So I'm guessing Bill Barr's resignation is sitting on the resolute desk as we speak???

Didn't Barr say if Trump pardoned Stone there would be a revolt at the DOJ???

Department of "Justice"???

LMFAO
 
Brain update needed

Looks like an update is needed. The facts have been in for a long time. There was no Russia collusion with President Trump or anyone on his staff. Or did the fake news fail to report on that after years of beating the Russia Russia Russia drum? Can't get the echo out of your head yet?

Or any Americans at all according to the much anticipated, and highly disappointing to the partisan left Mueller report. Frodo never lets actual facts get in the way of some pithy snark.

You would think the would be relieved to find out that POTUS is not a Russian asset, but they continue their fantasies. Its almost like they wanted a POTUS beholden to the evil Rooskies.

That does explain their support for Hillary.

Nothing to do with politics but I really want to punch that guy in the face. Just the way he looks. Like he needs a good punch in the mug.

Just had a long talk with #RogerStone. He says he doesn’t want a pardon (which implies guilt) but a commutation, and says he thinks #Trump will give it to him. “He knows I was under enormous pressure to turn on him. It would have eased my situation considerably. But I didn’t.”
There you have it. Stone has the goods on Trump, but kept his mouth shut in order to be rewarded. It’s plain that Trump committed some type of crime.

He failed to mention his collusion with Macklemore’s closet. I would say I can’t wait to see what he does with masks, but I’m sure part of the agreement requires he not break rank and wear one.
