I was replying to your post:

The prosecution’s sentencing was clearly formed from political bias.

I found it an odd complaint in light of your earlier comment of for whom they work...

It's not a stretch to sense a bias on Trump's part in this particular case in which the defendant was swiftly found guilty of crimes directly related to helping him.

Remove the GOP's and DEM's from what transpired. This is highly improper. I fear it's just a baby step taken by a recently emboldened president.

Again, Be careful what you wish for with this kind of Executive power grab favored by Trump and Barr. One day it could be your worst nightmare.

Gotcha, but didn’t Pete and Lisa work for the same person? I don’t think you’re saying they are all loyal to Trump are you?

they were following federal sentencing guidelines that applied to all common defendants found guilty in the federal criminal justice system: sentencing guidelines the DOJ says have been fair and just....

only difference here is that the defendant is Roger Stone, Trump's long tenured henchman.

That’s the top end of the guidelines.

he defied gag orders and threatened the judge!

Barr was the boss as was the president when the recommendation was made.

To pretend this isn’t odd is not intellectually honest.


But in the end the judge will do their thing and trump will pardon him.
