A nine-minute, unedited, undercover interview with Roger Stone revealed some of the MAGA ally’s more disturbing goals for a second Trump administration.
The covert recording of a discussion between Stone and an undercover journalist at a meet and greet in Jacksonville, Florida, on August 4, published by documentarian Lauren Windsor, caught Stone admitting live on camera that he already intends to send “armed guards to dispute the election in Detroit” and to imprison “former Attorney General Bill Barr if Trump returns to power.”
Under the guise of discussing a far-right program to get more like-minded people back into the federal government, Stone shared his disdain for Barr, deriding him as a “traitorous piece of human garbage.” He also lamented that, while president, “Donald Trump never controlled the Justice Department.”

Plotting coups has been Roger Stone’s MO for decades. He was behind the Brooks Brothers Riot in 2000, and the J6 insurrection. He’s one of the key players and amongst the most dangerous fascists in the US, and it’s astounding he manages to stay out of our conversations – and largely away from repercussions – to the extent he does.
He’s been getting away with absolutely devastating ratfuckery since Nixon (whose face is literally tattooed on his back).
He desperately needs consequences. He’s needed consequences for decades.
Ftfy. We should keep in mind that this guys approach to coups has actually worked in the past. The first attempt at a stolen election was 2000, and it worked.
Yes, and he’s been carefully learning from his failures ever since, honing his strategies in concert with other actually intelligent fascists like Bannon, Miller, etc, as well as foreign dictators like Erdoğan, Orbán, and Putin.
This threat is not being taken seriously enough, partly because they have a buffoonish carnival barker of a front-man who, by design, deflects attempts to take the threat seriously.
It’s very worrisome.

When people talk about the ‘deep state’ and all of the conspiracies of shadowy cabals, in reality it’s just this fucking piece of shit.
This piece of shit, plus the Heritage Foundation, the Federalist Society, and a handful of others. He’s basically their mercenary.
Peter Thiel too now. Penetrate that prick with a perpendicular pineapple.
Add Leonard Leo to the list too.
The projection about deep-state fuckery is because they run a wannabe-deep-state themselves.
I’ll be damned

He should be in prison for the rest of his life and kissing the feet of everyone else that he wasn’t put in front of a firing squad.
