Roger Stone: Donald Trump Saved My Life

‘At least on paper, he gave me a chance to fight for vindication’

RUSH EXCERPT:

STONE: “Well, you have a good reason to. You examine the D.C. Circuit court of appeals where I had to file a last-minute emergency appeal of judge Jackson’s room sending you to jail. She ignored all the legal precedents in that. She ignored my health conditions. She ignore the conditions at the prison at that time, and she ignored the current policies of doj and the boc. You would’ve thought it wouldn’t been reversed in the appeals court the they ruled for her 3-0. I’m afraid this is a fixed system. Above all, though, I guess I would have to say the most important thing here is the courageous and as of the president’s act. I know there were many, many people who told him in an election year, don’t do this. Let Roger Stone wait for a pardon after the election. Sean, I don’t think I would have live that long, not with my asthmatic condition. Not with now 60 Covid-19 cases in that prison. So I have deep affection for Donald Trump because I’ve known him 40 years. He’s a man of great justice and fairness. He’s a man of enormous courage. I knew he would take some shots for this, but I think most people, most fair-minded people, understand he saved my life and at least on paper he gave me a chance to fight for vindication. I’m not a fool. I’m going to be guided by the advice of my lawyers. As I understand it, if my conviction is overturned by the appeals court, I would be back in front of judge Jackson. Judge Jackson issued an incredible ruling that said that I could not raise misconduct by the special counsel, the FBI, the doj, or any member of Congress. Adam Schiff. So I mean, if that were in general Flynn’s case, we still wouldn’t know how he was railroaded. We still wouldn’t know about the political motivations behind taking him down. So I’ve got to become convinced I can get a fair second trial, because I certainly didn’t get a fair first trial.”
