The next American indictment in the Mueller imvestigation

[malaise]

will be Roger Stone. That's my prediction.

[dlk]

1. We Can Only Hope

Stone has belonged behind bars for decades.

2. Getting close to half a century

3. And Trump will probably pardon him.

The Pardon power really was a terrible decision. I feel like that's one of the biggest threats to Mueller's ability to take down all the criminals.

16. Not so fast or so easy.

If he pardons him before proceedings have finished, including court cases, then it becomes evidence of Obstruction of Justice.

And if he does, then Stone would have no Fifth Amendment protection.

Further, a Presidential pardon does not affect cases in state courts.

4. Burn his ass!

He thinks he is beyond the law.

5. Fingers crossed. The first quesition should be

Tell me about your friendship with Julian Assange.

[malaise]

7. He has already lied about that

<snip>

The Wall Street Journal reports that, according to a person “familiar with the matter,” Special Counsel Robert Mueller is investigating whether Trump campaign adviser Roger Stone dined with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange in 2016, ahead of Assange’s release of hacked emails damaging to Hillary Clinton.

In an email to former protégé, now enemy Sam Nunberg on August 4, 2016, which the Journal obtained, Stone put things pretty plainly, writing: “I dined with Julian Assange last night.” The very next day, Stone tweeted, “Hillary lies about Russian Involvement in DNC hack – Julian Assange is a hero.” (His Twitter account has since been suspended.)

But in an interview with the paper, Stone wielded a defense often used by President Trump and his defenders: He was just joking.

“I never dined with Assange,” Stone said, maintaining that “there was no such meeting. It’s not what you say, it’s what you do. This was said in jest.”

10. NEW RULE. You can only make a prediction on DU if it's expected to occur within the next 24 hours.

You can't get us all excited over a prediction which has an indefinite date or deadline. I might not live until eternity or the end of Bob Mueller's investigation; whichever comes first.

12. Hehehehe

Sorry - I predict that the Con won't serve a full term.
