Would Russia have tried to run a big operation to infiltrate the White House with a guy like Trump and a gaggle of unprofessional people like Roger Stone and Paul Manafort? Most likely not. The US empire is a lot bigger than the puppet in the White House and the risk is just too high.
If you listen carefully you’ll notice Roger Stone sounds like his own lawyer when he talks about certain things. He dramatically declared he will never betray Trump and he has never discussed a possible pardon with Trump. But maybe he discussed it with some intermediaries? And maybe these intermediaries are now double-checking their communication logs and what Roger Stone might have on them?
Stone was released on a $250,000 bail, gave a press conference and was interrupted, then gave another proess conference and some exclusive but empty statements to Alex Jones’ Infowars.
Mueller might have enough material to level new charges against Stone in the future. If Stone gets pardoned after a few years in jail, another indictment could put him right back. This reminds us of Paul Manafort who rots in prison yet there are more possible charges that he can be indicted with.
Stone makes it sound like the Mueller investigation is somehow not legitimate, a coup by the left, a rogue operation and he compares himself to the victims of soviet Russia who ended up in a Gulag. The Soviet Russia comparison may just be simple hyperbole and a jab at the “left/communist deep state” in the US. His old lobby firm did work for 3rd world dictators who really tortured innocents in nightmare jails. But there is more to it that maybe Stone does not understand at all.
Just to get this out of the way: Manafort got convicted with real evidence. Not for Russian collusion (yet) but Mueller got him on other things which is by the books.
Stone during his career was shilling for Nixon, the Bush clan and indirectly for the Skull & Bones circles who gave massive support to the Soviets through technology sales. Does Stone know that? We know that Alex Jones knows this, because he is aware of the works of Antony Sutton and even sold Sutton’s book on Skull & Bones.
Maybe Jones ate too much chili again and forgot.
Even though Stone was a complete fool contradicting his own emails to the Mueller investigation, Infowars still stands behind Stone. Is Infowars just loyal or stupid or do they have something bigger to loose?
The Washington Post is now asking the surprising question whether the hiring of Jerome Corsi at Infowars was a hidden hush money payment of 15.000$ per month to keep Corsi from testifying something hairy. It should be a straight-forward answer like “No, we just hired him as a worker then we fired him.”
But instead we get this weird song and dance that’s all too familiar. Nobody seems to be able to get their story straight. Everybody has terrible memory. Jones recently said his dad just does HR and taxes and has nothing to do with the news and Mueller is way out of line to target daddy. Then we get the admission that daddy sort of kind of had this “fake-news-project” planned on with Corsi and handled the payments. Now there is a subpoena for Infowars communications with Corsi and about Corsi. Depositions might be next and there will be hell if serious discrepancies arise.
Roger Stone was busted going back and forth between people about Wikileaks “dropping the payload” that would damage the Hillary campaign. After he got arrested he whined about CNN and others having waited at his place for the show to start. Did journalists from the mainstream media exchange communications with a source familiar with the investigation about the payload coming?
Remember the nonsense about Agent Q or Q Anon? There is supposed to be this wave of arrests coming of Hillary Clinton and people from her orbit. Instead people from Trump’s orbit get sweeped up, convicted and put in jail on a regular basis.
Alex Jones and others may scream that this is a left coup to steal the White House and there will be civil war if Trump gets removed, but it was Jones who used to teach his audience that both parties work for the same people and are rather smart. Nobody in his right mind would expect Mueller to use golden evidence publicly against the president of the United States. That would just be too big. It’s easier to just control Trump and find a solution that placates the Trump voters.
Would Russia have tried to run a big operation to infiltrate the White House with a guy like Trump and a gaggle of unprofessional people like Roger Stone and Paul Manafort? Most likely not. The US empire is a lot bigger than the puppet in the White House and the risk is just too high.
Alex Jones should know that not only Russian intelligence can play long cons. US intelligence is well aware that many wealthy Russians transfer their money to Western banks and some buy Western real estate. Maybe Trump asked some CIA contacts discreetly many years ago whether he could do business with Russians or not. Maybe the answer was “Sure. Lure them in. We’ll do the rest.”
