All of his tough talk is just that, TALK.

He will give up WHATEVER HE HAS to save his ass.

You can take that to the bank.

All I've been hearing this week is that he's been sitting there terrified of the FBI knock on the door.

This morning at 6 AM, they knocked.

So we'll see.

Sometimes the ones who position themselves as the toughest of the bunch are really the weakest. He's no kid, if these charges stick, he'll die behind bars. I don't see him trading the rest of his life for a Liddy "badge of honor."

...don't have an exact quote for you, but it was something like "Roger Stone built a reputation as a dirty trickster, a dark operative. Looks like that's over."

It's the smug arrogance that I couldn't stomach, the whole image he crafted. Nothing I like better than seeing a smirk wiped off of someone's face, especially when it's someone like Stone.

I'd love to put a fist right through the bridge of his glasses, bust them right on his face. Just kidding of course.

He never made plans for Friday - any Friday - because he knew the feds were gonna come knocking on his door.
This weasel just reeks of guilt and even he knows it.

MSNBC went into Morning Joe at 6, and there was that chyron.

Mueller has the best chyrons, and uses the best words.

And sucks the oxygen out of the Stone story. The media breathlessly cooperates.

However, the "I barely knew him" didn't work out so well for Trump before. Doesn't mean he won't try. Or as someone else on DU said, he'll announce a national emergency over the shutdown to try to take the Roger Stone news out of the headlines this weekend.
