Roger Stone: Trump commutes ex-adviser's sentence

US President Donald Trump has commuted the prison sentence of his former adviser Roger Stone.

It said that Department of Justice prosecutors under special counsel Robert Mueller only charged Stone out of frustration after failing to prove the"fantasy" that the Trump campaign had colluded with the Kremlin. "Roger Stone has already suffered greatly," the statement said. "He was treated very unfairly, as were many others in this case. Roger Stone is now a free man!"

Mr Trump is not the first president to issue controversial pardons or commutations for friends and associates, of course. Most of his predecessors, however, waited until the last days of their presidency to take such actions, as they knew the political firestorms they would generate.

It’s up to the American voters now.

Corrupt president

That Guy is straight out a Bat Man film.

Clinton did the same at the end for his friends.

Obama commuted Oscar López Rivera who was a member of FALN which carried out 130 bombings in the United States. Compared to Roger Stone this man is more dangerous.

Terrible

Its all comes down to 'Fruit of the poisonous tree'! A dodgy Steel Dossier Corrupt FBI officals Corrupt FISA Court providing illegal warrants. Corrupt OBAMA! - More fallout for the Corrupt Democrats! More arrests of corrupt officials to come.

Reward for the sacrifice done let him enjoy for the mischief done

President Trump will win Nov. 3rd 2020 USA election by a Landslide wipeout. DemocRATs are finished. Russia one big Hoax.

The world according to DJT!

You would never see a Democrat president doing that...🙄

Omerta

I can't wait to see the next Democrat president getting away with a whole bunch of stuff what with all this precedent that's being set right now. Tax returns? Pff who cares. Integrity? For Pu**ies. Accountability? I think we know where you can stick it.

The press refers to Stone as 'friend' 'advisor' 'confidant.' Tell it like it is. He's Trump's co-conspirator.

Well we all knew that was coming.

GOD EMPEROR TRUMP

He should NOT be allowed to do this.

Disgusting

Is this the same Roger Stone of whom Attorney General Bill Barr said earlier this week that he feels 'it was an appropriate prosecution and I thought the sentence was fair.'? Or is that a different Roger Stone he was talking about?

Well Stone me. 😳😳🙄

Expect more of this. Trump knows he's finished so will exploit his office to the utmost. Soon we'll be shouting lock him up.

Now we know why he skipped out on New Hampshire

Trump and his swinger sex friends.......

👍🏻🤪🤣🤣🤣🤣
