Stoned

February 21, 2019 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Well, Judge Amy Berman Jackson is a much nicer and more adult person than I am.  Roger Stone is a free man.

She did put him under a full gag order.  He’s been fully gagging me for some time now, but I guess he’ll be doing gagging selfies.

She didn’t believe a word that came out of his mouth.

But Jackson didn’t buy Stone’s apology. She said it looks like the explanation came from his lawyers.

“So thank you, but the apology rings quite hollow,” she said, adding: “There’s nothing ambiguous about crosshairs.”

He claimed that a volunteer posted the picture of the judge in the crosshairs, but he didn’t know which volunteer because he had “a lot” of volunteers.  Yeah, five. He had previously said he had five volunteers.

    Gag him with duct tape. That’s trump’s second-favorite fetish.

  2. Good ol’ Rog tried to plead poverty too, until it was revealed that he makes about $47,000 a month. No doubt he’s already sent out more fundraising emails this afternoon to the MAGAot-o-sphere.
    Stone is one of only a few that are the near-equal of RAT45 in bullshit slinging ability, no wonder they’re BFFs (well, until Rog rolls over on Donnei).

    If Stone were brown, black, red, or yellow, he’d be so deep in a slammer that the prison roaches couldn’t find him. As an old rich Anglo, he’s still hanging loose.

    Roger Stone, a mouth demanding a ball gag and clothespin over the nose combination.

  4. 1 week, tops.

    DH says just a few hours.

    My Twitter feed gives him 48 hrs.

    a pool on how long before he violates the order?

    put me down for 18Hrs on the outside

    Betcha he trys some smarmy trick like talking to alex jones ( Where are those depositions being taken) and having alex read the letter on line then plead he can’t be held responsible for what a “comedian” like jones or fatboy rush say after he wrote them a “private” message.

    Don’t think judge will buy that.

  6. I suppose using the Sgt Schultz excuse:

    “I know nothing, nothing!”

    is appropriate for Stone.

    I think the Judge was smart.
    If she had jailed him, he would have become a martyr to the Maga crowd.
    She publicly called him a liar and gagged him.
    She has done the second worse thing to him by not allowing him to spin his predicament.
    One step over the line and he is in jail.

  9. Stoned. And he did it to his own self!

  10. I would recommend Boner Stoner learn to breath through his nose to control the gag-reflex, but I suspect that he mastered that technique a long time ago.

  11. More then 18 hrs
    Ok I admit I underestimated how long people could be restrained

  12. dd@7: The folks over at emptywheel are also impressed with the judge. She put both Stone and his attorney (Rogow) on the stand to testify under oath. Some deft questioning allowed her to turn Stone’s own words, and hoist him on his own petard. Further, both said enough to contradict themselves that the prosecution will likely be looking through it for evidence of perjury (of both Stone and Rogow). His lawyer will likely be much more circumspect with and respectful to Judge Berman Jackson. And not that ol’ Roger is a nice guy, but apparently his aides include Proud Boys.
