. A few days later, they said the the word"imminent" was a"misnomer," because the book was already for sale, and the introduction could be accessed online. But they said it did not occur to them to tell Jackson about the book during the February hearing on the gag order.
In Tuesday's order, the judge said,"It does not matter when the defendant may have first formulated the opinions expressed, or when he first put them into words: he may no longer share his views on these particular subjects with the world." Stone, she said,"deliberately waited until public sales were not only 'imminent,' but apparently, ongoing, to inform the court of the publication effort that had been underway for weeks."
She ordered Stone, a former adviser to President Donald Trump, to file by March 11 a report on his efforts"to come into compliance" with her earlier order. His response should include records of his interactions with the publisher, when Stone became aware that the book was available, and anything he has done on social media to promote the book.
If Jackson concludes that Stone violated her partial gag order, she could extend the order, barring him from making any public statements at all on any subject. Or she could go even further and revoke his bail, which would require him to be held in jail awaiting trial.Pete Williams is an NBC News correspondent who covers the Justice Department and the Supreme Court, based in Washington.
Why give him that much time?
He is just pushing the envelope, trying to exercise control. She should show him he has none now, & he is going to suffer the consequences of his severely misguided belief in an entitlement that doesn't exist.
I’m pleading that Judge Jackson shut down the freak show that is Roger Stone: using every infinitesimal laxity he has left manipulating judicial juncture into feeding his need to bring back the heyday he thinks he once had, at Law & Order’s expense! 🚫
Stone is well you fill it in
F*ing lock him up already!!! Any average person in this situation would NEVER be given this many chances. Rich, crazy people get away with this crap because judges allow it. Enough is enough. RogerStone AmyBermanJackson
Because it was already written before the gag order and publishing had already began.
The Penguin is on the loose. Lock your doors! Waiting for his protege, the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man (Trump) to join him.
Mr. Stone will say the following, 'Babble, babble, babble, fumpher, fumpher, fumpher.'
Lock him up
Just bring him in so he can live out the consequences. Tired of this!
Can she order him to explain that double breasted suit also?
But your honour did you not say I could not say anything? Well I did not say anything it is only written. And everybody knows that text does not talk. It only relays a message. Ok mr stone well you are correct I did say that and for the reason of your stupidity- five years.
How many chances does this 🤡 get?
Why so much time?!?
JoywheatJw Woops!
Here’s how I imagine Roger explaining to the judge why he believes the introduction to a newly published book does not violate her partial gag order: “Because I’m an ass, your Honor.”
who is the girl on the right he is always holding hands with? the one on the left is his wife right?
This should be good!
Lock this 🤡 up!!!!
One of the very few people who have the ability to nearly forget my morals and values. I just wanna scream, 'Just put this serial attention-seeker away FOREVER!!!' Now I need a time-out and a nap!😡😡😡😡😡
Will Stone run; or is this all plans for his future book? Taking a chance going to jail, hope he brings the Vaseline. Someone may decide to cut out his Nixon tattoo, don’t go to the weight room to work out Roger.
Bail revoked soon
Roger Stone does WHAT he wants WHEN he wants. These judges are terrified of him
I think this dude wants to be locked up - he keeps pushing the right buttons to do it - crosshairs on the judge's photo? Yeah, that will do it.
And why does he get that much time to make up a story?
PUT. HIM. IN. JAIL!!
Rodger Stone should not have to explain again he should be put in jail like manafort. I like to know how much this judge is getting paid to keep this sleaze ball on the streets
That book was done BEFORE any partial gag order. Next....
