Stone says it's 'entirely possible' he could be framed in Mueller probe

Former Trump campaign adviser Roger Stone said an interview that aired Friday on Hill.TV's "Rising" that it is possible he could be framed in special counsel Robert Mueller's probe into Russian election interference.

"I think it's entirely possible that I could be framed on some matter that relates not to Russian collusion or WikiLeaks collaboration or advanced knowledge on the acquisition or publication of [Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman] John Podesta's emails," Stone told Hill.TV's Krystal Ball and Buck Sexton.

"There is no evidence, no witness that can claim that I'm involved in any of that or for that matter any other illegal activity pertaining to the 2016 election," he continued.

"At the same time, I recognize the practice of an out-of-control federal prosecutor's ability to find underlings, squeeze them and induce them to bear false witness against a bigger fish, and I guess I'm at least a medium-sized fish," he said.

...that he did not do it. He's number two on my wish list
of smug, arrogant Republicans that I hope to see in jailhouse
attire, second only to Trump.

Same for Broidy - SO dirty for SO long, Mr. Mueller has better things to do right now- LATER FOR YOU, BROIDY

This smacks of the usual preemptive narrative-setting crap they are constantly pulling. I hope they throw the book at that motherfucker. He's one of the ones I most want to see in a perp walk.
