Stone was pardoned before January 6th. When the details come out, Stone is fucked.

You are 100% correct, his outfits make him look like an idiotic cartoon.

I just cannot stand smug, anti-American scumbags like Stone. May he rot in prison until his carcass gets stuffed into a body bag.

this area was heavily into self delusion. Definitely including these dumbasses.

Some leaders stayed well away, but imagine the feds just got a lot closer to some.

Video surfaces showing Trump ally Roger Stone flanked by Oath Keepers on morning of Jan. 6

A new video has surfaced showing former President Donald Trump's longtime adviser Roger Stone in Washington, D.C., on the morning of Jan. 6, flanked by members of the Oath Keepers militia group just hours before the deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol building.

In the video, which was obtained and reviewed by ABC News, Stone takes pictures and mingles with supporters outside a D.C. hotel as Oath Keepers hover around him, one wearing a baseball hat and military-style vest branded with the militia group's logo.

"So, hopefully we have this today, right?" one supporter asks Stone in the video, which was posted just after 10 a.m. on the morning of the rally. "We shall see," Stone replies.

In fair New York City
Where call girls are pretty
One client stands out, and his name’s Roger Stone
He plies his corruption
Without interruption
With cock-ups and hustles
Connive, Connive, oh!

By the way, we've already recorded the song. We're working on the video this week and next, should be ready in 10-14 days.

Is that what those guys are doing? Guarding Roger Stone for free, because he can't afford to pay them? Or maybe they're just scary looking "escorts"?
