My daughter swears he is a Pixar villain come to life.

That hat he is affecting today makes him look like the Man in the Yellow Hat in the Curious George books. Just change the color.

Looks like Roger's witness intimidation of Randy Credico, a NEW YORK resident, could ramp up an unpardonable/uncommutable state prosecution.

Roll, Roger, Roll. Roll right on over your orange benefactor.

Commuted rather than pardoned means that Stone retains his Fifth Amendment rights and can't be forced to testify later.

That's easily enough overcome by forcing on him a statutory grant of immunity and slapping his ass in front of a grand jury. There's nothing to lose, given that Trump is gonna pardon the prick after the election anyhow. That way, if he lies, he can be prosecuted for perjury, and if he refuses to testify, he can be jailed for an (unpardonable) civil contempt.

Horsey sauce is simply horseradish and mayo. And by god was it good.

Thank you for this post. Stone turning on IQ-45 is certainly not something that is getting much play on media (yet?)

I am curious. I haven't heard anything about Stone committing state crimes, but it defies my imagination that he has not (when you start ratf*cking with Tricky Dick, that's a LONG time to go without jaywalking).

Any thoughts on those (un-Presidentially-pardonable) offenses?

Alternatively, they got Capone for income tax evasion ...

Right? I had to stop and think - I know Garrison is far from the brightest bulb on the tree. But seriously, you could run this exact same cartoon with a different signature in any number of lefty publications and people would get something very different from it.

By Goya?

you give me hope, but what is the procedure for "forcing" a statutory grant of immunity on him?

Nucky!

it's really sad that he can't simply accept the fact that his heroes are not the most beautiful men around, so he always has to doll them up (except, oddly, nixon). and why those rays coming from stone's head--is he overheated? is he in need of an aluminum foil hat?

or the roadrunner--i would give a lot to see him slam into the same mountainside "tunnel" that the roadrunner just went through

Tell them I send greetings, Liz. I bet we all know some other landmarks in common, especially if y'all enjoy a beer now and then.
