Ping to Dr. Corsi getting into more trouble with Mueller! Hope POTUS Trump can pardon him.

NYT reporters are really excited about this and seem to think Stone is implicated, but Stone has a good comeback:

Begin quote in the article:

“Mr. Stone said on his website that Mr. Corsi was confused about what took place. “Jerry is simply mistaken that what we discussed was a cover. Ask yourself, ‘a cover for what?’” he wrote. “In August 2016, there was no investigation, no special counsel, no congressional committees and no subpoenas, why would a story be necessary?”

End quote

The real question here is who on the special counsel’s staff is Maggie Halberman sleeping with? Her name repeatedly appears on thes special counsel leaks

He said prosecutors are especially interested in an email he sent to Mr. Stone on Aug. 2, 2016:

Julian Assange: ‘A lot more material’ coming on US elections
By Matthew Chance, CNN

Updated 3:32 AM ET, Wed July 27, 2016

https://www.cnn.com/2016/07/26/politics/julian-assange-dnc-email-leak-hack/

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3453327/posts?page=56

(CNN)Wikileaks founder Julian Assange said Tuesday his whistleblowing website might release “a lot more material” relevant to the US electoral campaign.

Assange was speaking in a CNN interview following the release of nearly 20,000 emails stolen from the Democratic National Committee by suspected Russian hackers.

If Matthew Chance at CNN was writing about Assange releasing additional information before Corsi sent email then shouldn’t Mueller be putting screws to CNN reporter as well?

The Dems & deep state are trying to ex-post-facto Corsi.

Mr Stone hit the nail on the head.

The Democrats and Mueller seem to be defining the seeking of information by Republicans as a crime. Curious. For electoral fairness it is legally required that Republicans remain ignorant?

Maybe you didn’t read the part about documents released.

This could be potentially damaging but again is it a CRIME? I don’t think so.

Digging up dirt isn’t a crime.

Maybe a few independent voting a@@holes will change their vote. That will be the worst of it.

This is their response to Corsi saying “No” to MuleFace. They can’t abide by men standing up against them. It infuriates them. They want to crush everyone they can. They may or may not be lying. Probably lying.

Opposition research by Republicans is patently illegal, immoral, and just plain evil.

Corsi’s side of the story is both more interesting and more verifiable.

As is using Facebook to microtarget potential voters. But when Dems do it ..... it’s just fine.
