ā€˜It Did Not Occurā€™ To Us To Mention His Book At Gag Order Hearing

Then you quite possibly have to be among the worst lawyers in the history of jurisprudence.

Good Lordā€¦

Totally credible response. In Trumpland only.

Everyone who touches the Trumpkins gets burned. Stoneā€™s lawyers are not firmly sideways with a Federal judge. Good luck with that.

Stone didnā€™t mention the book for the same reason that heā€™s in court: he thought he could get away with it.
Itā€™s past time to disabuse him of the notion.

This might be a reach on my part,but Rodger maybe the Judge will put you somewhere where you can contemplate,meditate
and wish you had kept your smart ass mouth shut.

ā€œIn Good Faithā€ and ā€œRoger Stoneā€ are mutually exclusive terms.

According to conservative Republicans, my ancestors risked their lives to come to America because they wanted to establish a democratic republic where guys like Trump and Stone would be free to tear at the seams of civility and morality, and, in doing so, gain enough power to grope and steal from anyone they want without consequence. Because they hold power.

I would like to think my ancestors would disapprove of Trump and his ā€œorganization.ā€

He HAS to go to jail now, right? RIGHT?!?!?!?!?!

Immediate first thought. I donā€™t know whatā€™s going on, if theyā€™re just negligent to the point of malpractice or theyā€™re teeing up some bonehead Hail Mary play to portray her as prejudiced? You just know Rog seeks his own level in all things and heā€™d have the kind of lawyers youā€™d pretty much figure he would.

Iā€™m sympathetic to the idea that Stoneā€™s book shouldnā€™t be held as a violation of the gag order ā€“ it was likely written, edited, sent the publisher before he was even indicted. But you didnā€™t think you should bring it up??

I may be alone but Iā€™m convinced he wants to go to jail - (well for 30 days or so) just to get his hapless victim street creds. Itā€™s a textbook smartass move.

I think these bed sores are playing this judge for all sheā€™s worth. They figure theyā€™re already fucked, so why not go out in a flame of glory sucking up as much of the oxygen in the room as possible so as to help draw as much attention away from Trumpā€™s enormous tire and garbage fire.

Interesting photo.

Even wearing store-bought clothes, Rog looks like he slept in them before he put on his greasepaint and red rubber nose.

Truthfully, my bet is that this will be his absolute, for real, last and final chance, and next time, he goes to jail.

It is not exactly a best seller -96 copies to date. Their defense of not mentioning it is a hoot but what may send him to the slammer is the instagram post. He is such a slime ball.

Judge Jackson, it just slipped our little minds to mention this. Surely the gag order doesnā€™t apply here. Surely?

A 600 + page book newly titled ā€œThe Myth of Russian Collusionā€ did not occur to these lawyers that they ought to mention it to the judge???
What I wanna know isā€¦ what law schoolndid these clowns attend? They never should have passed the bar exam at a minimum.
