CNN breaking: Mueller has radio interviews between Stone and Wikileaks "back channel"

[link:https://www.cnn.com/2018/10/03/politics/kfile-roger-stone-randy-credico-special-counsel/index.html|


Special counsel's office has radio interviews between Roger Stone and alleged WikiLeaks 'back channel' Credico.

Audio of radio interviews between longtime Trump ally Roger Stone and the radio host he claimed was his back channel to WikiLeaks recently came into possession of special counsel Robert Mueller's office, two sources with knowledge of the matter tell CNN.
The interviews between Stone and comedian Randy Credico took place between August 2016 and April 2017 on Credico's radio show, which aired on local New York station WBAI. Stone has claimed that Credico served as his intermediary to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange during the 2016 presidential election. Credico has denied the claim.
The special counsel's office is currently investigating Stone's possible involvement in Russian efforts to interfere in the 2016 election and questions about the nature of his supposed back channel to WikiLeaks.
CNN's KFile has obtained audio of the interviews, in which Stone and Credico repeatedly discuss WikiLeaks. In the interviews, you hear Credico ask Stone about the back channel and also cast doubt that the back channel exists.

If mueller doesn’t have proof of impeachable offenses by now he never will. Let’s get this show on the road.

Even though that this has been called "Stupid Watergate", the Watergate investigation took more than two years before the castle started crumbling. The Mueller investigation has not been going on as long as the Watergate investigation.

During a radio program...no less. Credico is refusing to speak to the House committee's request dispite already speaking to Mueller. Why would he speak to Mueller and not the House?

The repug-run committee probably hasn't even called them.

If called it'll be nothing but softball questions from the repugs and their chairperson.

other than when he went to see Mueller and he brought his therapy dog with him for emotional support. I find it odd that he is pro-Bernie yet is friends with Stone.

Maybe Stone was saying he was trying to help Bernie too. Sure we know he only helps himself... but people are gullible.
