Roger Jason Stone Jr.[a] (born August 27, 1952) is an American political consultant,[3] author, lobbyist, and convicted felon known for his use of opposition research. In November 2019, subsequent to the Mueller Report and Special Counsel investigation, he was convicted on seven counts, including witness tampering and lying to investigators, related to his work for the Trump campaign. He awaits sentencing.[4]



Wow...was he a dirty trickster...

How do you know they are crooked? Oh, maybe Trump told you that, trying to save his buddy.

One clue would be that Stone's Federal prosecutors, just quit the DOJ.... They got caught.

You don't know that.

They didn't get caught. They got disgusted by Trump's and Barr's interference in the sentencing. Ethical people don't want to be associated with that kind of illegal stuff.

You really want him to die in prison for telling a lie?
You must be a very cruel person.

If you remember, he is the guy who screwed with our elections, contacted WikiLeaks to dump America's private business on the web. Sounds like you are ok with that.

You're gullible enough to believe that Roger Stone influenced the election?

He got WikiLeaks to publish info that was hacked by the Russians. Yes that contributed to influencing the election. You think that is ok? That goes directly back to Putin.

Maybe you don't believe it because your dear leader told you it was a hoax and you think he always tells the truth.
