Roger Stone is gagged

Judge Amy Berman Jackson changes the terms and gags Roger Stone completely.

From this moment on, Stone may not speak publicly about the investigation or the case or any participants in the investigation or the case.

The judge warns Roger Stone that further violations could cause him to be detained.

"This is not baseball. There will not be a third chance."

Judge Amy Jackson said Roger Stone can talk about other matters but nothing to do with this case.

Roger Stone has been gagged, but he can continue to raise money.

One shirt that was already on sale PRIOR to today's hearing? "Gagged but not forgotten." Stone appears to have anticipated this moment.

1. Good! nt

[Tommy_Carcetti]

2. Would have preferred that he be immediately locked up, but that will happen sooner than later. nt

[MissKat]

27. That would've made him a martyr to his gang

Putting him in jail might've just increased the "the deep state is out to get me"

I wanted him locked up too, but this may be a worse punishment.

[nolabear]

3. Violation of gag order in 3...2...1...

[area51]

32. +1 n/t

[Honeycombe8]

34. Me, first! Me, first!

Let me guess first! (she says, raising and waving her hand)

[magicarpet]

36. Really,.. hopefully this Nazi Rat Fucker can't keep his big trap shut.

Mouth off Roger,.. besides what is a female judge doing casting judgment on an alpha male like you Roger ?

Roger,... it is just not fair...... bring one of your high powered rifles into her court room and shoot up the ceiling and walls. Show this judge how macho men respond to wimin judges.

[Fritz Walter]

39. He would just blame it on a "volunteer" again...

However, her honor would rightly throw the book at his ass and tell him to bring a toothbrush and tube of toothpaste to his next court appearance. Otherwise, his cell mates would be only too happy to improvise for those toiletries.

Anyway, who the fuck would volunteer to help this dog turd?

[JenniferJuniper]

4. Sad he's not going to jail, but

he'll not honor the gag order so soon come.

[bluestarone]

7. He will eventually!!!!!!!!!!!

He can't keep his mouth shut!!

[asiliveandbreathe]

5. Smart Judge...sending stone to the slammer would have only provoked the nutties, and opened

the door for appeal...now the nutties have no nuts.....I'm sure they will find something to squeal about....

[joost5]

17. Another Stone Provocation and He'll get jail

He's been warned, many times. Jail is the next repercussion.

[theboss]

6. Just like any other Thursday night, I presume

Is there a trial date yet? I can't imagine him going a week without being able to speak about this, let alone months.

[Princess Turandot]

28. The prosecutors have asked that the trial take place no earlier than September..nt

[Stargazer09]

8. If it had been anyone else

He would be in jail. She let him off too easily, I think.

I do have faith he will open his stupid mouth again in the near future. He’s arrogant enough to think he can do whatever he wants.

Next time should be his last.

[BigmanPigman]

9. Good, he has been making me gag for too long.

Too bad he wasn't gagged 40 years ago.

[Beringia]

10. Great

[lindysalsagal]

11. But, what's the punishment if/when he does?

Hmmmm????

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

13. Contempt of court - if that happens he probably will go to jail

because that would be the only way to keep his lips zipped.

[theboss]

16. His bail is revoked and he goes to jail

So....that's fun.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

12. Any bets on how long it will be before he violates the gag order?

[gratuitous]

19. Stone is too much in love with himself and the adulation of his fanboiz

He'll be in prison before St. Patrick's Day.

[emulatorloo]

40. So bizarre to me that he actually has fans

[Fullduplexxx]

14. Threaten a judge's life get a gag order ....lol this ahole should have been jailed

[pressbox69]

15. Good

He should be. Let's call the judge Lady Gag Gag.

[old guy]

18. He walks away free.

This is no punishment at all. Basically she issued a warning not to be naughty again and let him walk. Sigh.

[mobeau69]

20. Shimon, this doesn't make sense

From this moment on, Stone may not speak publicly about the investigation or the case or any participants in the investigation or the case.

Is it: From this moment on, Stone may not speak publicly about the investigation or the case or to any participants in the investigation or the case?

Or is it: From this moment on, Stone may not speak publicly about the investigation or the case or about any participants in the investigation or the case?

Geez.

[GoCubsGo]

21. Disappointing.

He should be behind bars.

[TheBlackAdder]

22. Ball Gag? It probably wouldn't be the first time! :-D

[MontanaMama]

23. Aw you beat me to it.

[colorado_ufo]

24. Fair enough.

He gags me every time I look at him.

[NurseJackie]

25. Gagged? Like in Pulp Fiction?

I'd pay good money to see that!!

[japple]

26. This is what I would really like to see. Bet his wife would too.

[lunatica]

29. I hope he gags on it.

[NightWatcher]

30. Is this his legit twitter?

Link to tweet

[pnwmom]

31. I think he was permanently banned from Twitter.

https://www.mediamatters.org/blog/2017/10/30/roger-stone-frequently-used-his-now-banned-twitter-account-push-racism-sexism-and-violent-rhetoric/218377

Twitter recently banned the main account of Roger Stone, a conservative pundit who has advised President Donald Trump for decades, after he targeted several CNN anchors and contributors with expletive-laden tweets. Stone had frequently used that account to tweet racist, sexist, and violent attacks.

[Honeycombe8]

33. He'll simply have someone else speak for him.

He'll tell someone else what to say and when to say it. No problem.

This was a slap on the wrist. I'm sure Stone is shaking in his boots from fear of being locked up. (not)

[world wide wally]

35. He's made me gag for a few years now

Paybacks.

[Yavin4]

37. He probably gets off on being gagged

Probably had an erection when the judge read the order.

[Golden Raisin]

38. The mangy leopard cannot change its spots.

He craves the spotlight and will implode/explode trying to hold it in and be incapable of keeping his big, arrogant mouth shut. Only a matter of time before he opens his trap and brays. At that point I hope the judge slaps him with contempt charges and sends him to the slammer.

[calimary]

44. And he's NOT accustomed to being held accountable or YEARS of ratfucking.

YEARS of ratfucking! With impunity! Til now anyway. I suspect he’ll slip up again. He can’t help himself! He has NO template - or temperament for any real discretion. Sneaking around and maneuvering behind the scenes and in the shadows for DECADES. And NEVER EVER held to account.

I can’t help but suspect that his kind of calculated weaponized malice is a habit that might be hard to break. When you’ve gotten away with it for as long as he has, and often richly remunerated for it, I think he’ll find it very hard to behave himself - at least for very long.

She was WAY too lenient.

[Golden Raisin]

45. She may not have wanted to create/contribute to a "martyr" setup,

and/or by doing this in step-by step increments (i.e. tighter gagging now as opposed to immediate jail) she automatically punctured any rightwing, future yelps that, "She wasn't fair" when she DOES ultimately send the SOB to jail when he next opens his yap.

[Iggo]

41. He should be CAGED.

For threatening a judge.

I know I would be.

[calimary]

42. No jail? Damn. I guess for him it's punishment having to keep his damn yap shut...

But I was rooting for the “Lock him up!” treatment.

POO.

[Ilsa]

43. I would have locked him up for 30 days

to show him who's boss. I think she was too nice to him, considering how deliberate and insincere his transgressions are.
