.@Teri_Kanefield notes that Trump said he “did not recall” & says “did not recall” wld be difficult to prosecute as perjury. She may be right. I honestly don’t know. But see @glennkirschner2’s post also. 1/
4/ Teri also notes that the Senate Intelligence report did not call it perjury. That was the journalist’s interpretation.
5/ I shld also note that when I said I was “losing it” I didn’t mean I was angry at Garland or anyone else. I meant my brain was overloaded. I was researching Roger Stone when that post came up. I hadn’t heard of this “lie” before.
6/ I am not as optimistic as Teri about Garland. But I’m also not sure he won’t do the right thing.

“As a member of President Richard M. Nixon’s Committee to Re-Elect the President, better known as CREEP, Stone helped recruit a young operative to spy on a group of Quakers who had set up a peace vigil in front of the Nixon White House.” 1/ washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/…
2/ Stone “admitted to Congress that he faked a contribution from the Young Socialist Alliance to… a Republican who in 1972 was mounting a challenge to Nixon in the NH primary.” Stone then sent the receipt to the media. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/…
3/ “Stone did not merely engage in dirty tricks; in 1972, the then-19-year-old Stone was assigned by CREEP official Herbert ‘Bart’ Porter to recruit a spy to penetrate the campaigns of Democratic presidential hopefuls.”

Question: How do you join “antifa,” & who leads “antifa”?

Answer: you can’t & no one. It’s an ideology, not a group. Roger Stone & his associates decided to exaggerate antifa’s presence & to pretend that it’s an organization bc every good fascism movement needs an enemy. 1/

Roger Stone initially wanted to be an actor. A large part of what he does is political theatre aka defrauding the public. See the Brooks Brothers riot, “Stop the Steal” (2016, 2018, & 2020) and the dangerous antics of his protégé Jacob Engels. 1/
