The Justice Department will backtrack on its request that longtime President Trump confidant Roger Stone get up to nine years in prison, a senior department official said, contradicting its own federal prosecutors in a highly unusual and politically charged move.

    1. Becareful we may send our straight jacket brigade out to get all you cnn sheep.
      Anyone believing anything these retards say deserves to do life in federal prison
      Morons

    2. Remember AG Eric Holder? Remember when he called himself ‘Obama’s Wingman’? Hypocrite much?

      The House has voted to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress over his failure to turn over documents related to the Fast and Furious scandal, the first time Congress has taken such a dramatic move against a sitting Cabinet official.

      The vote was 255-67, with 17 Democrats voting in support of a criminal contempt resolution, which authorizes Republicans leaders to seek criminal charges against Holder. This Democratic support came despite a round of behind-the-scenes lobbying by senior White House and Justice officials – as well as pressure from party leaders – to support Holder.

    1. @Bigly Muffdivr I’ve never seen people so brainwashed in my entire life. They’re so deep in bullshit REALITY to them is Fiction. The beast is alive and well

    2. @guccigangwavy yes corruption of muellers whole Democrat team he hired.
      And no the truth tellers will set them all free.
      Poor liberal retards

  1. Oh yea 7-9 yrs is too harsh for a rich white man faces MULTIPLE FELONY CHARGES…..🤔🤦🏿‍♂️ #AmeriKKKA

    1. Poor little crybabies.
      Its gonna be ok .go find your pacifier and blanky and go lay down and cry yourself to sleep again.
      🤣🤣😅😅😆😅🤣😅😅😅

    1. SICKFREDO he will not be until the trump is out of office we must vote out the GOP @VoteVoiced VoteVoiced.com

    1. Trump is going to pardon Stone because Stone did nothing wrong and the Russia nonsense is a HOAX perpetrated by the evil Democrats.
      CNN sucks and so do Libtards.

  2. Of Course Trump will put his buddies in the same boat as himself…untouchable. This is complete BS. Wealthy people are not above the law.

    1. @ronald lucero GDP under trump has consistently ranged between 2 and 3.5 except the 4th quarter of 2018. GDP under Obama was lower on average.

    1. @Bigly Muffdivr It’s the dregs of society like you, the dimwitted masses, the think “winning” by tactless, amoral, illegal means is irrelevant as long as you “win”.

      Lemme say it slowly, the gross injustice here is not winning. It’s a breakdown of accountability that will be the death knell of this country, and you idiots cheer as we burn.

    1. Yeah. He was just waiting for the go-ahead from his Senate buddies. Now he feels like he really can do anything. Really, he should keep going. The more crap like this he pulls, the more voters he loses for the general election.

    1. @Bigly Muffdivr I was doing well way before Trump was elected. In fact, you probably hadn’t even been bored when I started doing well. But yes, the economy is doing quite well for you employees and middle class workers. That I agree with so keep it up.

    2. Mutual Decline well done for a fella with just mediocre intelligence! With all that success you might buy a keyboard with spell check…. TRUMP 2020!

    1. @Tom McDermott Sorry, fool. It makes no difference for Stone. He would have done what he did no matter what the case.

    2. @Bigly Muffdivr You tool! This is Not “Swamp Draining,” this is a damn Sea of Corruption your Lord and Savior is systematically creating. When a president can tell his/our DOJ that the proposed sentencing is too much for his close criminal friends, then sir, THAT’S SWAMPY BEHAVIOR of the highest order.

    3. @ROMANS 8:31 what the hell does any of that got to do with Trump and Stone and now. What ????? Stay on topic.

    1. It is disgusting the way Trump’s rich and powerful friends are being treated, compared to how the average Joe Schmo who steals a slice of pizza, is treated! It is obscene! And if we don’t get out the vote and oust the Orange Menace, it is only going to get worse.

    2. trump must be stopped legally or illegally.anti freeze would be perfect payback for all the underaged people he has raped and worse. he wants stone pardoned, so he too can be pardoned for all his crimes, from treason to theft from the people of the u.s.a.,including our military.

    1. @Joy Phillips What would happen, pray tell?

      FACE REALITY: with Republican gerrymandering (affirmed by the Supreme Court), Republican voter-purgings, Republican invitations to foreign power subversion of the election, and Sanders and his “fans” attacking DEMOCRATS, the Democrats need as many votes as they can get.

      But where are Sanders and has “fans”? Blindly attacking DEMOCRATS as “corrupt”.

    2. yeah, lets just make Roger Stone sit in a prison cell the rest of his life for obstruction of justice and threats of bodily harm. im sure your grandpa deserves the same when he threatens the neighbor kids with an asswhoopin when they run across his yard.

  3. Now we have crooks that we can clearly hear from him in the department of justice such a sad day in America and a crooked president and our crooked US attorney general another sad part for Americans.

    1. Larry Hendrix Looking at that profile of yours, no question you know about crooks. Stealing and petty crimes would be your primary source of financial gain. You’re a degenerate, but somehow think you can belittle the President of the USA. Disgusting…

  4. Goodbye separation of powers, say hello to dictatorship.
    Yeah republicans: Trump has learned his lesson. He can do whatever he wants.

    1. @scott mullins I went through college and work two jobs and I put myself through school if I can do it anyone can!!!!!!!

    2. @yujinosm* You like in fantasy. Republicans did not agree the Democrats made their case. Trump’s legal team was a pride of hungry lions that feasted on the skinny bones of Adam Schiff.
      Now if you want to talk about the evidence of kiddie-porn that the FBI found on Schiff’s computer, we can. I find that fascinating.

    3. @s. o. b. Fuktrump Oh sugar,
      It looks like the Black Ledger that put Manafort in prison was fake….maybe a reversal? LOLOL
      And Flynn has reversed his coerced guilty plea and it looks like the judge is going to throw the FBI interview out. LOLOLOL

      Ah…..the Russia, Russia, Russia scam was started by the CIA and handed to the FBI. Those rubes made so many mistakes that he outsmarted them in the Impeachment scam.
      My Very Stable Genius is eating KFC on AIR FORCE ONE and Hillary is taking long walks in the park hugging a bottle of Grey Goose.

      Trump is God’s messenger and minor demons like you are funny.

      I will pray for you.

  5. Why is it still called DOJ now that Barr is in charge of it? More like: DoDWTTMTD: Department of Doing Whatever Trump Tells Me To Do.

    1. @ROMANS 8:31 The only idiot is the twit who still believes the fairy tales in a 2000 old book that has a talking snake,

    1. @Jodie Banks So, no one on Trump’s team, met with Russians?
      So, his son didn’t lie about meeting Russians?
      So, six people didn’t go to jail because of their Trump/Russia ties?
      So, his son-in-law didn’t want to set up a secret backdoor channel with Russia?

    2. @Steven Yourke So, no one on Trump’s campaign, met with Russians?
      So, his son didn’t lie about meeting Russians?
      So, six people didn’t go to jail because of their Trump/Russia ties?
      So, his son-in-law didn’t want to set up a secret backdoor channel with Russia?

    3. @Jodie Banks

      What SPECIFICALLY do you claim is ‘fake’ about this coverage? Do you REALLY think it should be OK for a President to intervene in the sentencing of a friend and known associate??? If you do, you clearly live in the wrong country – that’s not how it’s suppose to be done HERE!

    4. ernstbtmn You’re an absolute idiot! Did you hear what Mueller report said? They found NO evidence of any collusion involving Trump’s campaign and Russia at al. None. Zero. Hello? You’ve been suckered by the Big Lie. Brought to you by the same liars who lied to you about Iraq having WMD! Or doesn’t your memory go that far back? And nobody went to jail for meeting with Russians. Nobody! Idiot! Fool! Sucker! And by the way, there’s no law against meeting with Russians. None! And if Russia had dirt on Clinton, I’d sure like to know about it. But the real scandal is what the Democrats did in Ukraine. And sit tight. Indictments are on their way!
