Regardless of any opinion of Roger Stone, the reality of what took place today showed the full weaponization and intent of the Robert Mueller probe. A completely unnecessary, and profoundly aggressive, pre-dawn Bin-Laden raid with dozens of heavily armed FBI agents and SWAT members during the arrest was full Ruby Ridge…. Thankfully no-one was hurt.

Thanks to Bull Durham for posting a link to this article last year. Last para my add on.
A recurring pattern of the Russiagate investigation is that, whenever pressure increases on the FBI and on Special Counsel Mueller, an indictment appears.
October 2016: Following the FBI’s admission that the Trump Dossier – the keystone in the “evidence” of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia – could not be verified and the Wall Street Journal called for Special Counsel Mueller to resign, indictments against Paul Manafort, Rick Gates and George Papadopoulos appeared.
December 2016: Demands from Congress – Senator Lindsey Graham in particular – for another Special Counsel to be appointed were followed by the indictment of Michael Flynn.
February 2017: After the publication of the GOP memorandum, which catalogued a succession of breaches of due process by the Justice Department and the FBI in seeking surveillance warrants against Carter Page, a new indictment was brought against 13 Russian nationals and three Russian entities.
January 2019: BuzzFeed goes down in flames after Robert Mueller’s office is forced to publicly disavow BuzzFeed’s claim that it had obtained documents from that office asserting that Michael Cohen acknowledged he had been instructed by Trump to lie to Congress about a possible real estate deal to build a Trump Tower in Russia. Roger Stone arrested by a SWAT team, and indicted on charges of obstruction, witness tampering and false statements.
Nothing to see here.

…all of which begs the question: who’s running the FBI? Trump’s appointee or Bob Mule-er?

Been wondering that myself given that the special counsel has no authority to prosecute–can only make recommendations, which means the DOj and FBI are all in on crucifying Trump supporters and all NOT THERE on chasing down the real colluders with Russia and/or the conspiracy against a duly elected President.

Trump waited two years too late to get rid of Sessions. I love Trump but the coup is operating and they were strengthened when the Democrats were given the House. Now, see where Nancy et.al. take us. Down the sewer drain…….I can already smell the fumes.

And, amazingly, CNN was right there for the 6a.m.takedown! Leak much, Mueller? Now he has the FBI as his gestapo.

“One of the craziest elements of this show was that Tucker didn’t cut to a commercial until around 35 minutes into the program due to the ongoing advertiser boycott (which is due to monologues like the one he gave to start the show [Utube linked below]). Regardless, Mueller and his deep state cronies are doing to Stone exactly what they did to everyone else who helped Trump win his campaign — they’re using the full power of the state to manufacture ‘crimes’ out of thin air. This is literally the most despicable tactic a government prosecutor has at their disposal and it’s almost the only tactic Mueller has used to persecute everyone connected to Trump.” ~ Chris Menahan over at InformationLiberation

@Deplorable_Vespucciland: Great comment!
I believe this time Christopher Wray played a big role in this raid. On Thursday I had a meltdown writing on the official FBI website how angered he is/was about the shutdown ergo authorized these 29 heavily armed goons descending on the residence of Roger Stone in the early morning raid.
Then there is the fact that Roger Stone’s wife being deaf and remained in bed simply not hearing their demand to open the door. This could have ended badly for Mrs. Stone being deaf.
This has the fingerprint of Andrew Weissman all over it being the modus operandi just like the raid of Paul Manafort.
Sending 29 heavily armed goons to Stone’s residence was overkill!
I do wonder if the Baker’s testimony about Joe Pientka being Bruce Ohr’s handler had anything to do with this since he too was the agent during Mike Flynn’s interview where he also was the one writing the 302’s that mysteriously disappeared. It looks as though that Pientka had far more involvement in SpyGate than was previously unknown.
I also believe that he has been extensively interviewed by OIG Horowitz ergo no leaks. He is tying all together.
