During his press conference on Sunday, President Donald Trump was asked by one of the Democrat operatives posing as reporters if he was considering pardoning Roger Stone before he begins to serve the prison sentence handed to him by his kangaroo court trial a few months ago. In his answer, the President implied he considering a pardon not only for Stone, but for Paul Manafort and General Mike Flynn as well.
Here is a clip, followed by a transcript, of the President’s remarks on the subject:

Reporter: Mr. President, have you thought any more about pardoning Paul Manafort or Roger Stone so they’re not exposed to the coronavirus in jail?
Trump: Well, I just tell you this. Roger Stone was treated very unfairly. Paul Manafort, the black book turned out to be a fraud. We learned that out during the various last number of weeks or months. They had a black book that came out of Ukraine, turned out to be a fraud. Turned out to be a fraud. They convicted a man, turned out to be a fraud.
General Flynn was a highly respected person and it turned out to be a scam on him. The FBI said he didn’t lie and Mueller’s people wanted him to go to jail. Okay? So what am I going to do? You’ll find out what I’m going to do. I’m not going to say what I’m going to do, but I will tell you the whole thing turned out to be a scam, and it turned out to be a disgrace to our country, and it was a take down of a duly elected President.
These people suffered greatly. General Flynn, I mean, what they did to him, and even the FBI said, and they had some, and nobody’s a bigger fan of the FBI than me at the level of the people that really matter. But the top of the FBI was scum, and what they did to General Flynn, and you know it and everybody knows it, was a disgrace.
He was in the service for over 30 years. He ends up being a general and respected. Respected. And almost his first day in office, they come in with papers. They want to investigate him. Never happened before, and now the tables are turned. Investigate the investigators, I guess. These were crooked people. These are bad people. These are very dangerous people. You know what they are though? They’re scum. They’re human scum.
[End]
Indeed, the people at the top of the FBI at the time – James Comey, Andrew McCabe, James Baker, Bill Priestap, Peter Strzok – are human scum. And yes, there is no doubt whatsoever, based on the information we have on the public record today, that they were all involved – along with Robert Mueller and Rod Rosenstein and many others – in what was a coup d’etat on American soil. This is an unforgivable act, most likely authorized at the very highest levels of the Obama Administration, that must never be forgotten and just allowed to quietly fade from the national memory. Because if that’s allowed to happen, then we can be sure that similar operations will take place in the future.
If ever there was a time to start perp-walking these people before the cameras into the local police station and booking them on charges, it is now, while the entire country’s attention is focused on the news of the day. There has seldom been a similar time of national focus since the days following the 9/11 attacks 19 years ago.
U.S. Attorney John Durham, on the direction of Attorney General William Barr, has now been working on his “investigation of the investigators” for more than a year, far more than enough time to start producing tangible results. Yet here we sit, without a single perp walk, indictment or trial involving the human scum who first tried to fix a national election and then tried to take down a duly-elected President of the United States.
This situation is intolerable for a free nation, and it cannot be allowed to stand. President Trump could at least begin to start righting the excesses of the Nazi-style Mueller “investigation” by issuing pardons to Flynn and Stone, and even Manafort (who was actually convicted of some real wrongdoing) if he so chooses.
Somebody needs to do something real here.
That is all.
Comey’s a “former” Communist
he was worried that he wouldn’t pass the security clearance
Human scum than needs to be hanged by the neck until dead.
and FakeNewsCNN are scum for how they tried to spin The President’s remarks:
19 Apr: CNN: Trump won’t say whether he will pardon Manafort and Stone, calls FBI investigators ‘human scum’
By Nicky Roberston and Katelyn Polantz
When asked about pardons at the coronavirus task force briefing, Trump responded: “You will find out.”...
The Mueller investigation, after two years of painstaking fact-finding, documented several contacts between Trump campaign associates and Russians, as the campaign was seeking to benefit from efforts to sow discord in the American election, as well as several attempts by the President to obstruct the investigation...
The President then brought up the case of former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who pleaded guilty to lying to investigators during the Russia investigation...
Flynn pleaded guilty in 2017 of lying to the FBI about his conversations with the then-Russian ambassador to the US.
His sentencing was canceled in February as he is seeking to withdraw his guilty plea.

My only guess (hope) is that he doesn’t want to pardon them until he has a few scalps of his own on the wall. That way it would look like justice wasn’t all being handled just one way, his way. But if he leaves them to rot in jail, and doesn’t get some scalps of his own, then (in)justice will have been just all one way, the wrong way. So yes, do SOMETHING.
Brennan
Something tells me the reporter wanted a yes or no....but instead the President reminded everyone of the cop at the top of this farce.
not to mention how FakeNewsHuffPo spun this SPOOKY Fauci “prophesy”!
6 Apr: HuffPo: Dr. Fauci Warned In 2017 Of ‘Surprise Outbreak’ During Trump Administration
“There is no question that there will be a challenge to the coming administration in the arena of infectious diseases,” he said.
By Nina Golgowski
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the U.S. government’s top infectious disease specialist, warned in early 2017 that a “surprise outbreak” would occur during the Trump administration, and he said that more needed to be done to prepare for a pandemic.
“There is no question that there will be a challenge to the coming administration in the arena of infectious diseases,” he said in a speech titled “Pandemic Preparedness in the Next Administration” at Georgetown University Medical Center. He delivered it ***just days before Trump was inaugurated on Jan. 20, 2017...
On Thursday, (Fauci) spoke out against states that have not issued a stay-at-home order to help prevent the virus from spreading.
“I don’t understand why that’s not happening,” he said on CNN of stay-at-home orders in all 50 states. “The tension between federally mandated versus states’ rights to do what they want is something I don’t want to get into. But if you look at what is going on in this country, I do not understand why we are not doing that. We really should be.”

FireFauci.
they should have been hung on the steps of the Capitol
BEFORE they released their novel virus with Xi.
WRAY is JUST AS BAD!! FIRE HIM! OR ARREST HIM!
BOTH are Communists, I can’t find the quotation where he was worried about his background check.
“I’d moved from Communist to whatever I am now,” Comey told New York Magazine in 2003.

You'll have to wait a while before getting to see that. AG Barr is busy sucking on his bagpipes.
Well, you just wait.
It's all gonna go down... tomorrow. Know what I mean, seventeen?
Says a lot about how highly Trump thinks of his secret service detail.
That was an awesome couple of moments because he said it twice (that they’re scum). He is really an extraordinary man.
Pretty sure the aforementioned FBI folks weren’t the only guilty parties. Though he may not have been FBI, the name of Eric Holder should be included & then every one should be tried & if found guilty...then prosecuted to the full extent of the law. This might be a great time to start rounding them up as it might be a little harder to leave the country right now. Then those that might manage to sneak out might be kept out or extradited later. Either way, there are many that still need to face justice.
“The tension between federally mandated versus states’ rights to do what they want is something I don’t want to get into.”
Yeah, I bet you don’t, Fauxci. You want a central state, dictatorial system. Makes it a lot easier for you little authoritarian types.
Human scum is being kind. My adjectives wouldn’t pass muster with the moderators
Also He needs to ferret out the leading general officers in the military. The. The cdc the fcc the SSA and a phalanx Of other government agencies tainted by scumBama.
Like he's considering ordering the country opened since he alone has the power. And he's considering ordering Congress into recess. Anything the President is 'considering' has a habit of never happening.
And if the FBI leadership is 'human scum' then disband the agency now, today. If it isn't to be trusted then is serves no purpose.
