A federal jury has convicted longtime Trump confidant Roger Stone of lying to Congress and tampering with a witness about his efforts to learn about the anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks release of hacked Democratic emails in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

BS? Democrats and media will be in their glory now, more criminal activity found in the Trump administration!
Meanwhile, from Republicans, pffht.
Stone is a sleaze, but this is nonsense. Railroad job.
“Why would Stone’s lawyers allow an Obama admin official onto the jury?”
Lawyers are very busy people and sometimes minor details slip by, especially during the doldrums of jury selection.
Why people don’t realize that this country is run by a thoroughly corrupt government/ruling class, and we aren’t voting our way out of the ultimate collapse, is beyond my understanding.
You again raise the very troubling hub of the matter.
We have ONE justice system for the people who live in D.C.
and ANOTHER one for all the rest of us.
Perhaps this is not true.
[ Will he appeal?
Sounds like the judge gave him plenty of grounds by stacking the Jury with anti-trump partisans. ]
The Water Filter sales guy with a web channel basically proved there was an Obama official on his jury and they had to toss them off the jury because of it...
So there is plenty of motive.
Yup, you know the IG Report is pure and simple white wash.
I spoke with Hannity about this two days ago. I asked a simple question, how can you honestly expect the Deep State (IG) to find that the Deep State is guilty of anything?
The IG report is nothing.
Forget it Jake, it’s D.C.
My question is given that DC voted for the witch greater than 90%, why didn’t Stone’s lawyers ask for a change of venue?
There’s no way Stone could ever hope to get a fair jury.
Just think, if Hillary had won, Roger Stone would have been put away for life and Trump would be reduced to angry tweeting about it.
Deep State makes George III and his parliament look like pikers.
EXACTLY! America's robed mullahs and their puppets. 600 ways to Sunday.
Guilty of lying to Congress? When is Adam Schiff's trial? Thanks jimjohn.
The Deep State is kicking Trump associate’s asses.
LOL.
Judge permitted it.
Republicans: Still doing nothing.
These days I believe one has an obligation to lie to Congress. As the truth would make them break out in hives.
Stone already left the courtroom on day one, suffering from food poisoning. Test run?
