To almost no one's surprise, days before Roger Stone's prison sentence was about to begin, President Donald Trump has spared his long-time political crony from the pen — late Friday, Mr. Trump commuted Stone's sentence. It is time for New York prosecutors to answer this latest assault by Trump on the rule of law: They should ready a state prosecution of Stone.
Bringing a new case against Stone is possible thanks to Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York Legislature for Assembly Bill 6653. Signed into law last October, AB6653 enables New York district attorneys to prosecute what effectively amounts to certain friends and family of any president who pardoned them for federal convictions. Among the people who can be prosecuted are associates with information relevant to a civil or criminal investigation of the president.

Witchhunt
After all, the New York Governor's Nursing Home Directive was directly responsible for the deaths of over 5,000 New Yorkers.
Attacking Roger Stone's commutation seems like very small potatoes for all this ink--unless CNN editors are clinically insane with hatred for President Donald J. Trump.
Wouldn’t this be called double jeopardy. Manhattan D.A. Cyrus Vance, Jr. tried to prosecute Paul Manafort, and New York Judge Maxwell Wiley dismissed the charges claiming it was double jeopardy.
Wasn’t she a Conservative at one point? IIRC, She was supposed Conservative pretty faces in contrast to the Rachel Maddows of the left.
Now a Liberal says her price isn’t very high. Then again, crack whores are cheap, so I hear.
Well, since the President only commuted the sentence - I guess they are SOL.
Slick Willie pardoned Terrorists.
Defense attorneys recommending prosecutions ?!?
Gerald Lefcourt. There’s an old Marxist/communist sympathizer from the 70’s. A buddy of Kunstler. Very smart and dangerous.
There is an interview section with him in the book “Radical Lawyers: Their Role in the Movement and in the Courts”.
His red front record should be at www.keywiki.org. As I recall, he was a member of the cited CPUSA fronts the National Lawyers Guild and the National Emergency Civil Liberties Committee (Yes, it is in the book) and possibly the NLG off-shoot, the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR). Was in the Columbia Un. SDS created “Liberation School” as a teacher. Marxist all the way.
Ex post facto stupid
For starters...
I don’t think they actually want to go down this road but, if the do...
Prince Andrew should be prosecuted for money laundering, corruption, influence peddling, bribery, extortion and murder. But he won’t be.
They can not do it. The Constitution prohibits it. You can not pass a law making something a crime that happened before the law was passed.

Ooops. As usual the rag gets it wrong. Trump did not pardon stone....he commuted his sentence. Plus there is a matter of constitutionality of such a law
A lot of people should be prosecuted. Will they be? Sherwood Lyekit. Needsta Beedun.
He had better move to a Red State fast..
No, they don’t. Nor do they know about double jeopardy.
CNN shouldn’t have a broadcast license in the U.S.
I wouldn’t even wipe my a$$ with CNN.
