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.”

    Cases like him are why we actually do need the death penalty (and why it’s the Constitutionally-prescribed punishment for treason). As we can see from Trump’s pardoning of him, any lesser punishment isn’t final enough.

      That’s what I was thinking, but you said it better than I would have. Pretty disgusting that we have the death penalty and only use it for innocent, poor, or mentally ill people while Roger fucking Stone walks. 🤮
