Roger Stone Arrested

They could have called his lawyer, told him to come in Monday, saved the gas the agents would have used, and they would not have had to feed and house him over the weekend.

But then CNN would not have had their tape.

When do we see the Clinton Mafia arrested on television for their multitude of known crimes? Oh wait, I forgot. Laws do not apply to the criminal Left in this country. This is getting more Stalinesque every single day. Arrest and eliminate any opposition using a complicit and compromised federal law enforcement agency.

He's going to speak live in about 45 minutes. He has to pay a $250K bond first. They are still searching his home.

No tie ins to Russians in the docs.

The are big on the word obstruction, but it isn't obstruction of justice, it is some other kind of charge. Surprised that they didn't use some 'collusion' word somewhere.

All I know is, in the the last days of Trump's presidency, he needs to launch about 4-5 special prosecutors.

Dem Party advocate Chuck Todd is convinced this will lead to Don Jr.

What kind of country do we live in that a political pundit, who has said for months that he will be arrested, gets arrested in a midnight raid with full assault gear.

Not only was it a late night Full Elian Gonzoles assault, from the CNN video I saw, the 'assaulters' were pretty lackadaisical. Not that I want ill on any LEO, but if you are going to put on that kind of show, you had better be ready to actually play the part. If Stone was that much of a threat (HAAAAA!!!!), he could have lit the fudge out of those guys.

Can someone show me the last time the FBI went to arrest a white collar criminal in full SWAT team get up? I know the FDA has a SWAt team now and jack-boot thuggury has been du jour for a couple of decades, but really? Hell, Stalin or the SS would blush at this.

Every time a "witness" doesn't do everything they say, including lie to shore up their nonexistent case. I see this as further proof that Mueller will never have anything incriminating on Trump. He keeps indicting all his "cooperating" witnesses! LOL

Banana. Republic.

The FBI has now become the political enforcement wing of our government. Answering to no one. You can only hope they are on your side.

Sort of like like the Geheime Staatspolizei.

Wow. I feel like I’m living in a surrealist painting. The fact that people believe this stuff is bewildering. CNN has a whole headline article on ‘how’ they were there for the ‘raid’.

There’s the link but I wouldn’t give them the clicks. Here is some of their article:

The rare, dramatic video from CNN Friday capturing the early morning FBI raid of longtime Donald Trump confidante Roger Stone's Florida home was the product of good instincts, some key clues, more than a year of observing comings at the DC federal courthouse and the special counsel's office -- and a little luck on the timing.

CNN producer David Shortell and photojournalist Gilbert De La Rosa were outside Stone's home Friday morning to witness the FBI approaching Stone's door to arrest him on a seven-count indictment that special counsel Robert Mueller's grand jury approved a day earlier.
They were there staking out Stone because there was just enough evidence lurking in the special counsel's activity over the past week that CNN's team covering the Mueller investigation placed a bet that Stone could be arrested as early as Friday.
Stone's possible indictment has been looming for months now, as Mueller has interviewed many of his associates and others connected to the longtime Trump confidante, whose political career dates back to President Richard Nixon.
The first clue that the indictment was imminent came last week from CNN's Sara Murray, who was reporting on the upcoming grand jury appearance of Jerome Corsi's stepson. As the stepson's legal team negotiated a date for testimony, they were told to pick any day but Friday -- an indication Mueller's team expected to be busy Friday, according to a source familiar with the discussions...

They could've saved a lot of typing by just saying unnamed sources in the investigation tipped them off...
