House Intel votes to release Roger Stone transcript to Mueller

Source: The Hill

The House Intelligence Committee voted Thursday to release the official witness transcript of Roger Stone to special counsel Robert Mueller's office.

A congressional source told The Hill that committee members voted to hand over the transcript in a unanimous voice vote.

The Washington Post first reported Wednesday that the special counsel's office had requested the official copy of Stone's transcript from his interview last year with congressional investigators. Former federal prosecutors told the newspaper that it could mean that the special counsel is preparing to charge Stone.


Stone and his attorney did not immediate respond to requests for comment. The special counsel's office declined to comment.

The early Germans believed in the Krampus in the pre-Christian / pre-Saint Nikolaus era, which is sort of amazing. It carried over and got adopted into the Christian customs surrounding Christmas. The costumes are so cool and authentic, they're probably too scary for the very small kids.

all (think he does) that's basically will lie and cheat to win anything, including elections. And he bragged about it. About time he got caught w/ his hand in the cookie jar.

but I guess he realized blocking the request would only delay the inevitable once Schiff took the gavel.

They may have found him useful, but that's over. And it's obvious Trump will throw him under the bus sometime soon, so there's no advantage in sticking up for him now.
