Roger Stone communicated with indicted Russian *state intelligence* hacker.
Stone was informal Trump campaign advisor, and already facing possible perjury/false statement charges.
This is the biggest deal today, so far.
2/ Now, based on probable cause, this is concrete evidence that
Stone, an informal but active TRUMP CAMPAIGN advisor, conspired with a Guccifer 2.0, INDICTED RUSSIAN AGENTS.
This is the most public link so far of a conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russian govt spies.
3/ The logical next step is for Trump and his flacks to say they've never heard of Roger Stone.
The next step for Mueller is to get Stone to flip. He's in serious big-time trouble.
Pro-Tip, Mr. Stone: Justice Joseph Story wrote: a president can't pardon Contempt of Congress.
4/ The indictment names Guccifer 2.0, DC Leaks, and "another entity." The question now is *which* leakers are "another entity"?
It's a... WHICH hunt.
Ba-dum-bump.
Spoiler: it's probably Wikileaks.
Thread from @pwnallthethings. The indictment quoted Guccifer’s messages to unnamed Trump advisor, and we know it’s Stone. This is a deliberate warning from DOJ to Stone.
6/ @KenDilanianNBC on MSNBC with a major observation: Indictment is written to connect timing of Trump press conference "Russia, if you're listening," 7/28/2016 and the start of Russian spearfishing campaign. Ken calls in a "nexus," and that's serious.
7/ Here’s that page of the indictment connecting that date (Trump’s public invitation to hack) and the start of Russian spearfishing campaign against Americans. A criminal conspiracy can be communicated on live TV.
8/ If there had been any communication between Russians and the Trump campaign about anything related to Hillary emails, this is the DOJ putting together a timeline of criminal conspiracy.
9/ Two clarifications:
1. The date of Trump's "Russia, if you're listening" and the new round of Russia spearphishing was July 27. I typed July 28 above.
2. The indictment says spearphishing started earlier, but Russia started a new round against new DNC targets on/around 7/27.
10/ My friend @jentaub sees another remarkable coincidence in June 2016. June 3: Don Jr emails "I love it."
June 7: Trump announces "major speech" on Clinton info.
June 8: Russia launches "DC Leaks"
June 9: Trump Tower meeting w/ Jr, Kushner, Manafort.
