Stone Tests Judge’s Patience With Instagram Post Bashing Schiff

Instagram fanatic Roger Stone published a now-deleted post of House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff’s (D-CA) head laid over a “bullschiff” meter on Friday.

It’s unclear whether the post technically violates the gag order imposed by Judge Amy Berman Jackson in D.C., but the post will, at the very least, test her patience.

 

Stone is not supposed to speak publicly about people involved in his case, though he is allowed to insist upon his innocence and hawk his legal defense fund.

Schiff may be too far removed for the post to constitute commentary on special counsel Robert Mueller’s case against Stone, but that decision will ultimately lie with Jackson, who Stone has a penchant for pissing off.

    absolutely nothing will come of this. keep in mind that scumbag actually threatened her life and she couldn’t be bothered.
    i’d love to know how many poors she’s thrown into jail for minor violations of their parole.

  3. Avatar for cd cd says:

    somebody needs a congressional subpoena and testify under oath, publicly

    and if he refuses to show, throw him in jail for contempt

  4. Maybe she will in turn test Roger’s patience by giving him the 45 years in prison he potentially faces.

  5. Look out for the sternly worded tweet from ABJ to Stone.

    On another note: undeserving white people in ND and MT are gonna be getting flood dollars soon!
