    Judge Amy Berman Jackson said Tuesday that Stone must prove why his bail shouldn’t be revoked and why she shouldn’t institute a full gag order in the case.

    After he posted the photo Monday, Stone apologized and said the picture had been “misinterpreted.” Jackson already issued an order limiting comments in the pending case.

    Stone has pleaded not guilty to lying to Congress, obstruction and witness tampering related to discussions he had during the 2016 election about WikiLeaks. The anti-secrecy group released material stolen from Democratic groups including Hillary Clinton’s campaign.

    This person must be a masochist; he will be very lucky if the Judge does not revoke his bond, and order his dumb tuchas to jail.

    Police: Mr Stone, there appears to be a picture showing your judge,and crosshairs indicating that you wish she would be assasinated. Any comments?
    Mr Stone: Really? That was just a random picture I found on the web. I had absolutely no idea…

    Folks, this is Trump’s advisor. Mindbending!

    It is awkward as a lawyer when your client will not shut up.

    Tiny Trump considers Roger Stone a friend and adviser. Stone is also an associate of Alex Jones of Infowars another conspiracy theorist. What I found most odd with Stone is that huge tattoo of Richard Nixon, the disgraced President, in the middle of his back! I have never seen anything like it.
