Originally 7 to 9 years. After Trump's Tweet Barr backed off of that and didn't give a specific recommendation but just asked that the Judge take into account Stone's age, record, and seriousness of the crime.
Stone was never going to get 7 to 9 years. I think 3 to 4 is more in line with expectations.
“Originally 7 to 9 years. After Trump’s Tweet Barr backed off of that and didn’t give a specific recommendation”
Barr didn’t back off AND he gave specific recommendations.
The judge followed Barr’s recommendations.
So, the judge had already decided to deviate from the prosecutors’ position? Those POS’s resigned for what? Will the press report that the judge agrees with Barr that the recommendation was too harsh? Oh, silly me . . .
I think you are getting the time line wrong. That's the MSM and libtart narrative.
The 7 to 9 was what the four scumbag prosecutors wanted, not Barr.
Expectations? Why arent all the others who brazenly lied to Congress in the pokey?
