If anyone is interested,

Mr Stone has his day in court

STONE: "I can only say I'm sorry yet again it was an egregious mistake." Tells judge he's sorry he abused her trust. Says he's not being paid to speak about the case. "Perhaps I talk to much, but I am under enormous pressure."

20mns later..

Stone hit with stricter gag order

Judge Amy Berman Jackson has issued a new set of restrictions on Trump associate Roger Stone in a DC federal court.
Under the new ruling, Stone may make no statements about the case and hold no press releases or press conferences.

Stone has also been ordered not to make posts about the case on social media.
Stone also may not comment about the case indirectly, Jackson said.
Any violation of this fresh gag “will be a basis for revoking your bond”, Jackson said – which could mean Stone going to jail.

Should be fun !

It’s funny watching all the pawns moving along in this politics chess game.

At the same time, the kings and queens are watching what their servants are doing.

I haven't followed his case, but just wanted to say his tattoo creeps me out.
What man puts Nixon on his back? And now I'm wondering where his Trump tattoo is...

Yet another corporatist/lobbiest money/power hungry swampy Trump pal. Trumps 'drain the swamp' just meant 'Elect me and I'll take myself and all my swampy friends down with me'.

Best part of the Trump presidency.

...this guy, has been a huge mover and shaker
behind the scenes wheelin' 'n' dealin'
since the Nixon days

He was a serious fixer
he saw and did stuff
he brags about it

I can only best describe him as ...
a wannabe Cray Brother

Anyhow, if you want read about him
go here :The Dirty Trickster
It's a truly brilliant portrait !



That's pretty swag
For a 60yr old, fit looking
first timer about to go to jail ...

Slightly interested. Fox just reported that the judge slapped him with a gag order. After that little photo escapade, he should be kissing her feet for not locking him behind bars.

Roger Stone is an imbecile. Sorry, facts are facts. If brains were dynamite, the man couldn't blow his own nose.

Yeah that was a dumb move,but if he wants a pardon he will have to smarten up real quick.

Stone is his own worst enemy. If he hadn't lied to Congress and then tried to get that other guy to cover for him, he'd be free & clear right now. Because there's nothing illegal about his involvement in the e-mail business -- inquiring to find out if Wikileaks had the leaked e-mails is something any reputable journalist might do.

Not a total gag order.
He's allowed to campaign for legal funds and stay on air - just can't talk about the details of the case.

The guy seems idiotic, is having a breakdown or just loves the limelight so much he doesn't care how he gets it.
There is a worrying trend though I am seeing from people having rape fantasies about him, though - even on this thread. Weird.

You don't play chess do you? Eliminating the queens is an easy way to beat a novice.

Too many chess players are lost without the queen.
