The documentary wasn't even intended to be flattering towards Stone and yet he clearly relished every bit of attention it got him.

I wouldn't want to be in the same room with him and there's no way in hell I'd let my kids be anywhere near him.

Same attitude. Could easily see Drumph saying these things. Same vernacular "loser", "I'm winning", etc.

conveniently disposed of relevant docs??

Ah well - it's a start I suppose - and I just can't fret over the particulars of how they're going down, due to things I hear about chatting with the wrong foreigners whilst being recorded, and then there's always NY AG Eric Schneiderman, and there's the FINcen agency that I hear has no time for games...so, all good here, thanks for posting, geek!

Even if he refuses to surrender his communication papers and decides to take the Fifth, doesn't he still have to appear in person to respond to the Fifth Amendment requirements?

If he does, the Senators can ask whatever questions they want if they know they are not going to get a response, can they not? This could incriminate even further than answering the questions, perhaps?

Of course, if this were a Democrat, Republicans would force the person to show up just for PR purposes.

These guys were outside the law, operating as agents without registering.
