It does appear that he lied, although SOME Of the charges are based solely on other people CLAIMING he lied, people who got immunity to testify.

So I doubt he lied as much as they said he did.

At this rate, everyone that helped get the President elected is going to get locked up.

Why would anyone help him again?

Comparatively speaking, Stone’s only real crime is he was not a Democrat.

Trump won’t do a damn thing. He has consistently left his supporters high and dry. Why should anyone be loyal to him?

Yea I don’t know what goes with the sections. Some work for
short periods of time I believe but who knows. Sometimes a
key word or two from the title is a better search function or
at least for me it has been. Take care.

The crime of supporting Trump is a capital offense.

I don’t want to sound blasphemous. But I understand more and more why the authorities in Roman ruled Jerusalem back in the day freaked out over the arrival of a popular outsider.

Yup a pardon!

Lying to congress should never be considered a crime and one should always lie to congress.

Any question, lie, as they have for decades.

He can’t do anything to help them without being accused of obstruction of justice

Can someone give me the simpletons version of events here? Someone told Assange about Hillary’s email server breach? We don’t know who that is, but suspect it was the Russians. Stone caught wind of it from Assange, and asked Wikileaks to publish the account.

In all that I see nothing illegal. Only crime appears to be that now Stone says he never had contact with Wikileaks?

Assange told EVERYONE in a press release. Stone tried to make himself more important by saying he had insider knowledge - which he did not. This reporter is a lefty but he never bought the Democrats Russiagate lies. Roger Stone was found guilty on charges stemming from his false claim of a Wikileaks backchannel. In reality, he had none. Let that sink in: the top proponents of Trump-Russia-Wikileaks "collusion" are now pretending that this verdict doesn't undermine their conspiracy theory. https://twitter.com/aaronjmate/status/1195391964348334082?s=20

Stone will be sentenced to more time than pedo rapist Epstein was. Ponder that.

I want Flynn, Papadopoulos (my fellow innocent pro Trump Greek), Stone, Manafort all pardoned by Christmas. I assume the impeachment trial in the Senate ends before Thanksgiving.
