Longtime Trump friend and political adviser Roger Stone must report to prison by June 30, the Bureau of Prisons said on Thursday.

Stone has said in court filings that he plans to challenge that reporting date as he appeals his conviction -- though it's not clear how successful that may be.

.....

Stone is designated to be inmate #19579-104 after a federal judge sentenced him to 40 months in prison for lying to Congress and witness intimidation. A jury had found him guilty last year in a case that proved he had lied to protect President Donald Trump when the then-Republican-led House of Representatives inquired about the 2016 campaign's efforts to reach WikiLeaks.

Stone has been living at his home in Florida since his arrest In early 2019, the last criminal case brought in special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation. In addition to challenging his jury trial, Stone has openly sought a pardon from Trump in recent weeks.

Can’t get here soon enough.

1. This Will Be Interesting

If not another abuse of justice

[flying_wahini]

2. Trump will pardon him.

[Qutzupalotl]

5. Possibly,

but IIRC that would remove Stone’s 5th Amendment protections, meaning he could be forced to testify ... though that might not be until after the election.

[Mr.Bill]

10. I really don't think so.

I think Trump writes him off as a loser and forgets about him. Same as Manafort and Cohen. He has no loyalty to people he can no longer use. I honestly think he wouldn't pardon his own son if he were convicted of anything.

[marble falls]

12. I don't either. He'll need those get out of jail cards for the kids.

[greblach]

14. Manafort got out of Prison

So in the middle of a pandemic it is OK to send your kids to school, but unsafe for Manafort to remain in prison...

[Mr.Bill]

17. True,

but he hasn't been pardoned.

16. Fat Donnie will get Barr to find a way to release him.

That way he'll have "clean hands." It's the standard mob boss modus operandi -- which Michael Cohen says Trump uses. Fat Donnie will publicly lament that Stone was treated "unfairly," and Barr will release him. That way no one can say Trump pardoned him just because he was a friend.

[Dustlawyer]

19. Barr cannot release him because he has been adjudicated guilty already.

[snort]

3. Hey, Roger!

SLAM!! hahahahahahaa

[crickets]

4. Good. K&R

[George II]

6. Wait until his cell mate gets a look at that tattoo on his back!

[lastlib]

18. It will be very gratifying to see Nixon's mug behind bars, if only vicariously....

Almost as good will be seeing the pokey slam shut on Roger the Liar.

[Sneederbunk]

7. He is special. Will never see inside of jail cell.

[AllaN01Bear]

8. bye bye . cu in a few years .

[ToxMarz]

9. inmate #19579-104, that has a certain ring to it.

Fits him.

[certainot]

11. he knows the collusion continues with limbaugh as go-between

stone and corsi are players in the redacted parts and so is hannity - that is about talk radio, they are not social media geniuses, but they are long time talk radio operatives and feeders.

hannity's name is completely redacted and because he was mentioned incidentally several timess in the mueller report he should be in the glossary - the name and description between graf and hawker is completely gone. if the limbaugh was part of the redacted parts of the report but he was not mentioned in other aspects then they might leave it out completely from the glossary

[djacq]

13. Lock him up.

Mike Flynn is next.

[iluvtennis]

15. He was found guilty in Nov 2019. 7 months later we may get some justice. nt
