Everybody But Trump Agrees: GO THE F*CK TO JAIL, ROGER STONE

Attorney General Bill Barr is pretty sure Roger Stone should just go ahead and go the fuck to jail next week, like he's supposed to, for his crimes of lying to Congress, witness tampering, and obstruction of justice. Yes, despite ALLLLLLL the fuckery Barr's Department of Justice has pulled in Stone's sentencing, and despite how a whistleblower came forward and testified to Congress that Stone was specifically getting special treatment because he is BFFs with Donald Trump. That whistleblower, of course, was one of the prosecutors who resigned from the Stone case after Barr's henchmen interfered with the sentencing recommendations.

Last night, Barr told ABC News something he's said before, which is that the prosecution of Stone was a "righteous" one, and also go the fuck to jail:

"I think the prosecution was righteous and I think the sentence the judge ultimately gave was fair," Barr said in an interview with ABC News.

Even Bill Barr!

Stone has been trying to get out of going to prison for his crimes for a while now. He tried to get out of reporting to the hoosegow for an extra two months, because he's allegedly worried about coronavirus, and we guess they don't make masks that fit that shape of head. Judge Amy Berman Jackson said fuck off, but gave him an extra two weeks to stay at home and make sure he doesn't have the corona-cooties, moving his report date to July 14.

Then Stone decided to beg the DC appeals court to save him, because of all of his medical issues. The Justice Department followed up with a filing today, saying it also too agrees that Roger Stone should See You (in jail) Next Tuesday, just like the judge said.

So Stone's only hope is a pardon from his best crime-buddy Donald Trump. He's been begging, just fuckin' everywhere, including on social media. Texting with Bloomberg News, Stone said, "I want the president to know that I have exhausted all my legal remedies and that only an act of clemency will provide justice in my case and save my life!"
