    It’s a wrap. He is going to easily win re-election in 2020 now.

    You are complaining about over regulation by complaining that they gave the power to the states and a private organization. Then come complaining that Congress cut subsidies to adjust for it.

    And what you describe is how most professions work in terms of state boards and professional organizations controlling the profession.

    Did Mueller close his investigation and Breitbart was the only one to report it or something? Why are you guys gleefully bumping this thread and claiming it’s a wrap?

    I think this is the new strategery within their bubble. They yell "it's over!" and walk away, closing ears to all subsequent coverage.

    (*hugs knee to chest*) Bold move, Cotton. We'll have to see how this works out for them.

    I’m guessing it has to do with this?

    Read the article. Thanks.

    How does Trump's former defense counsel have access to everything that Mueller has?

    I thought everything that occurs within a grand jury was confidential by law? Even for the information gathered outside of the grand jury (via FBI interviews, subpoenas, etc.), why would Mueller give it to Trump's lawyers?

    Yeah, but Trump's lawyer has already declared victory. Time for everyone to go home.

    CNN sent Stone's attorney the indictment 2 hours before it was unsealed.

    CNN was not asked by FBI to leave until after the raid was over.

    Posted to the government site where indictments are posted isn't exactly leaking it to the media.

    You do realize that if you read this post and the information in it you’d make the obvious conclusion that the Indictment was sent over by the reporter AFTER Stone was arrested... right??

    Roger and his lawyers obviously must think the judge doesn’t know how to read or observe how dates and times work....

    OR... he knows the judge will read this but doesn’t care because this is really meant to confuse and manipulate simple minded Trumpers who will then turn around and report this on online forums like this one.

    You are fighting the good fight. I respect that but please try and be a little more diligent before posting some of this stuff.

    Chose not to experience electronic music and MDMA in his youth? I guess I’d be grumpy too.

    Of all the hills to die on... Roger Stone outraged over being put on camera by the media is a bold one.

    This is the same Roger Stone who hours after his arrest, personally released his own home video of his arrest with far better camera angles.
