Jack-Booted Thugs

We are now a “banana republic” where the government can “raid” anybody with guns drawn for essentially pissant “crimes.” That’s what they did to Roger Stone, simply because he was once a Trump adviser. They did it to put pressure on him to LIE about his association with Trump to keep himself out of trouble. Something he is very vocal about never, ever doing. President Trump ought to put out a prohibition against such “circus-type” raids for these pissant “crimes” for which they are being used. All they needed to do is knock on his door (during normal business hours) and ask him to come with them. Not stage a guns-drawn massive raid with guns drawn and in full body armor, the like of which they would use to apprehend a serial murderer. This was obviously done for the effect. The FBI is “out of control,” and needs to be brought back under control. And of course, when he tried to speak after his court appearance, you couldn’t hear what he was saying because of the stupid chanting that drowned him out. Meanwhile, one ignorant fool actually asked him if he ever “consorted” with the Russians in Donald Trump’s service, to which he answered a “categorical NO.” Word is the FBI used 17 vehicles’ worth of agents to “apprehend” him, when all it would have taken is one agent knocking on his door and asking him to “come with us.” It’s not like this man would meet them with guns drawn, so their drawn guns were a complete excessive action. And of course, they “tipped off” CNN so they could have their cameras there for that pre-dawn raid. (CNN)
