Stone Calls for Ex-CIA Chief to Be Executed


June 3, 2019 at 8:20 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

Roger Stone posted and then deleted an inflammatory online call that former CIA Director John Brennan be “hung” for treason, the HuffPost reports.

Stone is under a gag order as he awaits federal trial on charges related to his work on Trump’s 2016 campaign.

Roger stone is getting better treatment than many of us, who don’t look quite like him and will never see. That is the nature of white male entitlement, which is a strongly supported issue on this site.

He's under indictment for lying, tampering and non violent crimes. He posted bail.

Anybody with the same crimes is treated that way.

What exactly are you accusing Judge Amy Berman Jackson of?

First time was in February when he posted a picture of the judge with crosshairs; Second time was in March with a post that asked, "Who framed Roger Rabbit."

This would be a third breaking of that gag order. So I have to assume that Judge Amy Berman Jackson is giving Mr Stone preferential treatment.

I guess I give Judge Amy Berman Jackson more credit than that considering her record.

I have never seen her treat a male easier than a female nor have I seen her treat a white person easier than another race.

Who the hell does he think he is? He's a nobody. I could just as well call for him to be executed for treason. Do you think it would actually happen?

He’s already micro-encephalitic, and has run out of room for any common sense, inside his pinheaded self..,,

They really think in terms of execution of political opposition and would turn the United States into a larger version of North Korea. Of course if confronted they would claim they are joking.

Brennan and his family must be thrilled to know Stone's message was deleted and all is well now. Do I need the sarcasm thing? I don't think so.

That the current bunch of Republican/Gov't Deviants constantly point their fingers at their opponents to accuse them of everything they themselves are guilty of and how they themselves should be punished?

Every time they open their mouths and point their fingers, it is like they are screaming about their own crimes against the country.
