BREAKING: ROGER STONE INDICTED 
Charges include testifying falsely to the House Intelligence Committee, five counts of false testimony and a count of witness tampering.
The House Intel charge is big: Dems begged Republicans to send the transcript of his testimony to Mueller and demand more info from Ston. They said months ago they suspected him of perjury. Rs balked. politico.com/story/2018/03/…
Shorty after Wikileaks released the first tranche of Podesta emails on Oct. 7, 2), a Trump campaign aide texted Stone: “Well done.”
Indictment also shows Stone tried to get Randy CREDICO to mislead Congress too. And he made a Godfather reference to do it.
The Trump campaign directed someone to contact Stone about future Wikileaks releases, per the indictment.
This statement from Stone’s House Intel testimony seems clearly false based on recent disclosure.
Dems, even back in March 2018, questioned Stone's honesty and said Republicans had refused to call him back to square his testimony with public reports.
The first thing Roger Stone said to reporters, moments after walking out of his House Intel testimony during which he allegedly lied repeatedly: "I wanted to give you an opportunity, all, to see fine English tailoring."
THE TAPE: Right after Stone testified, @mkraju asked Stone whether he wanted Trump to fire Mueller.
Stone said, "Yes" and argued that it was because Mueller was too conflicted to be special counsel.

Stone also told me in December that he did NOT have a joint defense agreement with Trump.
And the first House Intel members weighs in:
Reminder that Stone also made an unnamed appearance in the indictment of Russians for hacking -- for his contacts with Guccifer 2.0.
The day before his arrest, Stone told two SirusXM interviewers that Mueller had "no evidence" connecting him to any crime.
He also said he would continue releasing his annual "best and worst dressed" list -- even if he's in jail.
