President Donald Trump's longtime political ally Roger Stone invoked his Fifth Amendment protection as he declined to share documents and testimony with members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, according to a letter posted Tuesday by the committee's top Democrat, Sen. Dianne Feinstein.

Give him immunity and then demand that he testify.
I was watching a documentary about the McCarthy hearings, and libs were all over the place saying how pleading the 5th was not any admission of guilt whatsoever. Wonder what they’re saying now....
Did she leak this?
Roger Stones attorney sent a letter this week stating Stone wont provide documents or appear for an interview before the committee. https://t.co/csC3TG1BPH pic.twitter.com/oRbpE0qjEw— Sen Dianne Feinstein (@SenFeinstein) December 4, 2018
Since the Senate Committee is totally in bed with Weasel Mueller, what do they expect?
He should have done that long ago.
LOL, thats a great pic.
Good!
We ARE IN a very real fight for our republic.
The next months may decide the fate of this country.
I HATE drama queens.
I’ve said time and again that a CWII was ridiculous.

The question is: will they jump out of the pot and start truly defending themselves? My guess is there will be a keyboard civil war that's doomed to failure. As one comic put it: "A real civil war would require people to go outside."
Good!
Nice.
I would not say anything either. Too many opportunities for the subject to make a mistake which puts him into a perjury trap.
Why cooperate? Mueller is witch hunting.
