I like to read him too. I disagree with almost all his policy positions but he makes arguments. He's someone we could debate with. I wish we had a conservative like him here but all we ever get is someone like Limbaugh or Hannity.

yeah I know. but I think he's still not considered a "libtard", so there's that. I guess I like to read what he has to say because he understands how some of them think...

He fell out with Jared, I

He fell out with Jared, I believe,and being an A-level bullshitter, probably thinks it's better to cast about his innocence, perhaps presuming the investigation will never head that close to him. Who knows, he's a snake and an asshole, such as with his CUNT t-shirts et al. I hope he gets 3 or 4 decades of what's coming to him.

Updated to add: I didn't realize he'd gotten in a pissing match with Citizens United over the original name behind C*U*N*T. He really is one.

In reply to Frum @ The Atlantic, Feb. 15

Frum was fired from a couple of conservative groups for saying things like this. No one in the republican party stood up for him when he was called a RINO. He's pretty much been kicked out of the republican party. There may be other sane republicans who agree with him in silence but does he have any influence? If he has some influence do any of them have the courage to stand up to the base? I guess we'll see.

Former Trump adviser Roger Stone calls for investigation of alleged Russia links

By Pilkington @ The Guardian, Feb. 15

Stone, who’s named as one of four individuals under FBI observation over alleged contacts with Russian intelligence, urges Department of Justice inquiry

[....] Stone, a lobbyist known as a master of the darker arts of politics, was a senior adviser to Trump at the start of his presidential run but was forced out early on, following a falling-out with others in the inner team. He told the Guardian that he would welcome an inquiry from the justice department into the Russian allegations: “I would relish the opportunity to testify in public under oath on this issue.” [...]
