Longtime Donald Trump political ally Roger Stone has agreed to meet with the House Intelligence Committee for a closed-door interview on September 26, according to Stone and a committee source.

"I will voluntarily testify for the House Intelligence Committee on Sept 26," Stone confirmed in a statement to ABC News. "Although I have again called for an open public hearing in the interest of full transparency, the hearing is currently scheduled to be in a closed session."

The former Trump adviser is being investigated for his possible ties with Russia's interference in the U.S. election in 2016.

"I have had no contacts or collusion with the Russians," Stone told ABC News chief anchor George Stephanopoulos on "This Week" back in March. "There is no collusion, none -- at least none that I know about, in Donald Trump's campaign for president."

[Impeach Trump]

1. The man is a snake and of the "win at all costs" variety that would sell his soul to the devil

if it would afford him any sort of profit.

2. About time

This guy is key. I won't say the key but he is a key part of it. I remember on "The Circus" on Showtime he was denying to reporter he has anything to do with Russia contacts to a reporter on the phone. Means if the reporter is asking him for comment probably means there is something there.

3. so why is this a closed door session? n/t

4. He will lie like a rug as he wears his 7" Nixon tattoo under his designer shirt in pride.

He is as corrupt as Manafort and Flynn. In fact there is a photo of the gruesome trio from the 70s or 80s. All 3 of them are thicker than shit. Add 45's face to the photo and you get the full picture (figuratively).

5. In the vipers' nest....

that is the Trump administration, Roger Stone would be the top viper. He's already as much as said he'll be lying through his teeth.

[Mr. Ected]

6. EXCEPT this is the Devin Nunes-led House Intelligence Committee

In spite of the Dems on the committee, including Adam Schiff and Eric Swalwell, I don't trust a damned thing this committee does anymore.

[Lostnote]

7. "at least none that I know about".....here we go again!

Reagan holds the record for the "I can't recall that" elusive escapism defense....

[Achilleaze]

8. republicans always CLOSE THE DOOR on their dark shit

they are doing their damnedest to protect the KGOP TreasonWeasels who have pissed all over American democracy.
