Roger Stone and his associates were behind dozens of fake Facebook accounts that coordinated their activity and boosted his work and political priorities, Facebook said Wednesday. The accounts, including Stone’s personal profiles, have been removed from the platform.
Stone is just another smug asshole who belongs in jail
And I’m thinking we’re never going to see him behind bars.
One after another excuse, and he’s still not serving his time.
This is so stupid, the guy provides nothing but the kind of internet trolling and ID-faking that any bored teen can muster up with a minimum of effort. I guess to other sexagenarians it seems like computer wizardry or something.
Gabriel Sherman in Vanity Fair says this:
At a moment when he needs to calm restive Republicans, Trump may antagonize them further by commuting Roger Stone ’s 40-month sentence. According to sources, Trump has told people he wants to commute Stone’s sentence before Stone reports to prison on July 14. Rumors swirled over the weekend that Trump would announce it on Sunday night. Sources say the West Wing is at war over a possible Stone commutation. White House counsel Pat Cipollone is against the move, and even Attorney General Bill Barr is opposed. “Barr has told Trump not to do it, and if he does there will be a mutiny at DOJ,” said a source briefed on the internal debates. People close to Trump fear he won’t listen. “You can’t underestimate how hard it is to get information through to him,” a Republican close to the White House said. “When you talk to him, he just talks at you. He doesn’t like to read memos, so there’s not really a way to get through to him. Everyone agrees.” (The White House declined to comment.)
We can only hope that the mutineers put Barr in a leaky boat with no supplies, and set him adrift.
Stone’s personal accounts were among those removed from Facebook and Instagram,
Buh-bye, asshat. And take those stupid TPM articles about what you’re posting with ya.
So many have resigned already, it is a war of attrition. Since Dems will not Impeach Barr (as well as a litany of R failures), the decimated #s of decent folks left at DOJ don’t have any solid ground. All that is left for them is to decide … how do I want to die (get fired)?.
He’s looking like used cheesewax, holding in a growing sack of warmed up yogurt.
After what they did to Lt. Col. Vindman in the Army, nobody is going to raise his voice in the DOJ, there might be some bitching by “un-named officials” but nothing even remotely resembling a mutiny, they all have mortgages to pay and children to educate, this is America and it’s always me first.
That scumbag R Erickson (Maria Butina’s grifter boyfriend) got 7 years for bilking investors. Stone is getting less than 4 years for Treason & Election related issues.
I keep being reminded of Stalin’s purges of the Red Army in the late 1930’s, which left the Soviet Union woefully unprepared to deal with the Nazi invasion. They survived only because Hitler’s strategic thinking was mired in WWI notions of controlling territory, rather than decapitating the government by making a beeline to Moscow.
Trump is decimating the U.S. government, driving out experience and expertise. Some will return, but many are gone for good.
Stone was a pioneering troll long before there was an internet. He paved the way for the Republican party to become now essentially a party of trolling the country.
Wil Rump lose Barr’s butt licks?
Well, he even looks like Charles Laughton in a general way, so yeah, I can see it.
It seems to me, it would be smarter for FB to NOT let someone back on the platform who was kicked off for serious transgressions.
And here’s hoping that a very large inmate permanently wipes that smug smirk off his face.
He belongs on a ventilator that Jared negotiated a deal on. But I’ll settle for jail.
“Barron is very good at the cyber.”
Rape jokes aren’t funny.
That said, after reading about his past, I believe he’s down with that.
