00:00:13.620 Well, I think that's the problem right now is a lot of people that are close to retirement,
00:00:16.760 they're taking so much risks. And if we do get a big sell-off, it could derail their retirement.

00:00:59.320 On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
00:01:02.240 Welcome to The Stone Zone.
00:01:05.240 Well, Letitia James, a New York attorney general, and her supporters may have been
00:01:10.600 popping the champagne corks a little prematurely,
00:01:14.020 because yesterday in the Eastern District of Virginia, a grand jury refused or declined
00:01:22.400 to bring a bill of indictments against the New York's leading law enforcement official
00:01:29.240 for simple mortgage fraud.
00:01:31.800 A little background here, just so you remember, the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of
00:01:42.900 Virginia, who was charged with investigating this case, and the case of James Comey, the
00:01:50.640 FBI director, failed to disclose in that case that he had a serious conflict of interest.
00:01:58.500 You see, the prosecutor, a man named Evan Siebert's father-in-law, that is, his wife's father,
00:02:07.760 was the godfather to former FBI director James Comey's daughter.
00:02:13.360 Interestingly enough, the same individual, prosecutor Siebert's father-in-law, had represented Comey as a private
00:02:22.460 attorney, a stunning conflict of interest that meant that Siebert should have recused himself from this case.
00:02:30.360 Although Siebert was technically appointed U.S. attorney by President Trump, it was done with the
00:02:37.180 acquiescence of the two senators, Senator Cain and Senator Warner.
00:02:42.700 That makes his appointments suspicious to begin with.
00:02:46.060 And then when the Senate declined to confirm Siebert, he was confirmed by the federal judges in that district.
00:02:55.860 Well, if the Democrat appointed judges like you and the two Democrat senators like you, that it means that you are a partisan prosecutor.
00:03:08.020 The president fired Mr. Siebert and he appointed Lindsay Halligan, who came off the White House staff where she was an attorney.
00:03:16.920 Now, Lindsay Halligan is extremely attractive, and some in the low-rent media have gone to calling her a beauty queen.
00:03:27.240 Others say that she is, quote, just an insurance lawyer.
00:03:30.820 In fact, she graduated summa cum laude from college.
00:03:36.160 She was first in her law class, and she rose to be the partner of the civil division of a major,
00:03:43.500 major Florida law firm, where she supervised all of their real estate and mortgage activity.
00:03:52.640 So she was actually an excellent prosecutor.
00:03:55.240 She took the case of Letitia James to the grand jury, a simple case of mortgage fraud.
00:04:01.520 If you can read, you can go to whitecollarfraud.com.
00:04:05.920 There's a great body of research there, but it is abundantly clear that Letitia James,
00:04:11.400 while a resident of the state of New York, obtained a favorable mortgage rate, insurance rate, and tax rate on a mortgage in Virginia
00:04:21.580 by signing a sworn declaration that says she would inhabit the property and that she was a, that would be her principal legal resident.
00:04:31.400 That is a crime.
00:04:33.800 It's an open and shut crime.
00:04:35.100 This was a documents case, and Lindsay Halligan took it to a grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia,
00:04:43.600 and there was an indictment on every count.
00:04:46.380 There are multiple counts of lying under oath.
00:04:50.580 What I was accused of in the Congress, even though the misstatements I made before Congress were immaterial,
00:04:58.840 and therefore there was no intent.
00:05:00.540 In this case, Letitia James knew exactly what she was doing.
00:05:05.500 Then, of course, three federal judges, Clinton appointee and two Obama appointees,
00:05:11.220 threw that case out, not based on the merits or any judgment of the case itself,
00:05:16.640 but on a technicality in which they wrongly ruled that Lindsay Halligan had been improperly appointed
00:05:23.700 to the position of interim U.S. attorney.
00:05:27.940 That could go to appeal, but by the time Halligan would be reinstated on appeal,
00:05:35.460 there'd be 60 days left on her 120-day term, and this case would have been dismissed.
00:05:40.760 Very clever how the judges did that.
00:05:42.980 I have a major expository coming on how the three Democrat judges in charge of both the Comey
00:05:49.220 and James' case violated the law and the Constitution and the canon of ethics to reach a political decision.
00:05:57.200 Now, the Justice Department, in my view, sandbagged Lindsay Halligan in that first trial
00:06:04.460 by giving her no resources, and I find it disturbing that the prosecutor who took it back to the grand jury
00:06:11.080 for re-indictment on the same issues, a person named Keller, was reportedly handpicked by the Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche.
00:06:21.520 So I think we were sandbagged here.
00:06:24.700 This was an easy indictment to win, but the grand jury did not return it.
00:06:30.300 If you go right now to whitecollarfraud.com, there's a terrific analysis,
00:06:35.500 because grand juries come and grand juries go, but the documents just don't lie.
00:06:40.900 The documents here, by the way, are all matters of public record, meaning anybody with half a brain and a laptop
00:06:48.540 can see that Letitia James has a 43-year history of mortgage fraud.
00:06:56.480 She's a one-woman crime spree.
00:06:58.740 Every property she's ever purchased, she violated crimes.
00:07:02.900 In the first home she bought, she claimed falsely that her father was her husband in order to use his balance sheet to obtain the mortgage.
00:07:12.360 Yet on the deed for the actual property, she correctly reflected that the co-owners were daughter and father.
00:07:19.720 That's a fraud.
00:07:21.240 In another instance, she qualified for a very special type of loan for an investment property.
00:07:26.760 It was called a hemp loan, but by law, the rental unit that you're buying had to be four units or less.
00:07:37.860 That's what Letitia James said her property had in her mortgage application.
00:07:43.600 Unfortunately, it had five units, and she knew that.
00:07:47.320 This is just the second example.
00:07:51.980 Her financial disclosure forms are a disaster.
00:07:56.880 She actually reports mortgages that don't exist.
00:08:00.820 She fails to report mortgages in question here that do exist.
00:08:05.540 On various years, she shows rental income from her allegedly rental properties.
00:08:10.280 Other years, she says it's not a rental property.
00:08:12.760 I'm not sure who prepared these forms, but I would fire them.
00:08:18.100 But now the question is, what happens next?
00:08:21.020 I think it is unlikely that the Department of Justice seeks to re-indict Letitia James on these particular charges,
00:08:30.480 and I think they would undermine an effort to do so again, as I think they have done so.
00:08:35.960 So why they don't want to pursue this case is a bit of a mystery to me because Letitia James herself,
00:08:43.220 as the New York Attorney General, has prosecuted many people for the exact same crime that she now stands accused of.
00:08:53.600 But here's the good news, and that is in terms of those who are for accountability and justice,
00:09:00.420 I believe there's a high probability that Letitia James will be charged with bribery in the northern district of New York.
00:09:08.340 I believe that there's also a case to be made that she knew about and covered up claims of child sex trafficking
00:09:18.020 and human trafficking in a Bronx operation operating out of a public restaurant and club.
00:09:27.620 Those complaints went to her office, and they seem to have disappeared.
00:09:32.960 Could it be because the owners and those involved in this trafficking operation are major donors to Letitia James,
00:09:41.940 the New York Attorney General?
00:09:44.000 Something a grand jury should certainly be looking at.
00:09:47.520 But then there's the question of how she financed her path to the Attorney General's office.
00:09:52.220 We understand that she ran on the platform of elect me and I will get Donald Trump.
00:09:57.200 That would be prior to her having any evidence of wrongdoing on his part.
00:10:02.560 Then, of course, she fabricates an extraordinary case under a law in which no one has ever been prosecuted in New York State,
00:10:08.900 in which she claims ludicrously that Donald Trump inflated the value of his assets
00:10:14.740 in order to obtain commercial development loans, which he paid back in full and on time,
00:10:22.680 and from which the lenders made $40 million in interest.
00:10:28.620 She fails to mention that every one of the lenders, banks, use their own due diligence
00:10:34.640 and do their own examination of the value of the assets.
00:10:38.640 No one, of course, would take the property owner's claim
00:10:42.060 because it's always going to be higher than market.
00:10:45.300 Okay, so Trump defrauded no one.
00:10:49.260 That's an extraordinary case now on appeal.
00:10:53.360 She won an enormous judgment.
00:10:54.920 The judgment is stayed.
00:10:57.840 It remains to be seen how Trump's lawyers handle this going forward,
00:11:01.520 but I think there's a high probability that that fine would disappear,
00:11:06.160 just as I believe that there's a very high probability that the E. Gene Carroll sexual assault case against Trump
00:11:15.940 will ultimately be reversed.
00:11:17.900 This one is interesting.
00:11:19.660 The New York State legislator, a cabal of left-wing Democrats coached by George Conway,
00:11:26.640 the former conservative, now Democrat activist lawyer,
00:11:32.080 I think he may be transitioning.
00:11:33.600 I saw him on TV last night.
00:11:35.060 He looks terrible.
00:11:36.600 But he persuaded the legislature to pass a bill that extended the statute of limitations in New York State
00:11:42.840 against sexual, specifically for sexual assault.
00:11:48.400 That was so E. Gene Carroll, a woman who comes across as crazy if you ask me,
00:11:54.960 filed claims that Donald Trump assaulted and raped her in the women's changing room
00:12:02.100 in Bergdorf Goodman on Fifth Avenue.
00:12:05.060 She was claiming she was wearing a designer dress.
00:12:08.860 I think it was by Diane von Furstenberg.
00:12:11.520 That's how she remembered so well.
00:12:12.960 There was only one problem.
00:12:14.680 On the date in question, that dress had not yet been produced or marketed.
00:12:20.540 This is the same woman, E. Gene Carroll, who in an interview on CNN told Anderson Cooper
00:12:26.760 she thought that the whole concept of rape was sexy.
00:12:30.240 By the way, she has a long history of accusing men of sexual assault.
00:12:34.480 Little did the Democrats know that they would get Mayor Eric Adams and Governor Andrew Cuomo
00:12:40.420 in that same snare because women came forward and filed sexual assault cases against them as well.
00:12:48.100 That case will ultimately also be overturned on appeal, in my opinion.
00:12:53.880 She provided no physical evidence.
00:12:57.020 All we had were her claims.
00:12:59.320 But we had a liberal Democrat judge.
00:13:01.720 You see, when you have a left-wing activist judge, whether it's at the federal or state level,
00:13:07.540 the Constitution, the law, the rules, the evidence, the precedence, none of these things matter.
00:13:17.720 When you have a politically motivated prosecutor working with a judge who is philosophically
00:13:25.120 and politically in the tank, anything can happen.
00:13:30.720 And we saw it in all three cases in New York.
00:13:32.980 The third case against Donald Trump, the so-called hush money case, is also an absurdity.
00:13:40.980 Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan District Attorney, couldn't even define the underlying crime.
00:13:45.340 So he details all these financial transfers, but he cannot say for the grand jury what crime has been convicted.
00:13:52.520 It's not a campaign finance crime.
00:13:55.820 So that case will also ultimately be overturned.
00:13:59.880 This is what's called lawfare.
00:14:00.980 They went after Donald Trump and they fabricated all of these charges.
00:14:06.800 But now, when there's actual evidence of wrongdoing by Letitia James, well, no, this is about retaliation and revenge.
00:14:14.880 And Trump's just trying to hurt his enemies.
00:14:17.380 Anybody who sat through those trials or the coverage of those trials in New York,
00:14:21.460 or who remembers how the FBI violently raided Donald Trump's palatial home in Palm Beach, Mar-a-Lago,
00:14:30.140 with FBI agents rooting through Melania's panty draw, knows what really happened here.

00:14:38.780 And we'll be back with more about Letitia James and whether we're ever going to get accountability and justice

00:15:10.060 they're taking so much risk.
00:15:11.900 And if we do get a big sell-off, it could derail their retirement.

00:16:12.240 And we're back.
00:16:15.280 Still, I find it stunning that the supposedly inexperienced Lindsay Halligan, who's never
00:16:21.200 been a prosecutor, got an indictment from a grand jury against Letitia James on all counts,
00:16:27.140 while an experienced career prosecutor assigned to the case by the Justice Department in Washington
00:16:32.840 could not secure an indictment.
00:16:35.860 Can you say sandbagged?
00:16:37.600 In any event, as the listeners of The Stone Zone know, we have long predicted what would
00:16:46.400 happen if New York City elected progressive jihadi mayor Zoran Mamdami, the ayatollah, as I called him.
00:16:56.320 I know what the end result is of his soft on crime, high tax, redistribute the wealth policies.
00:17:06.980 And now it is beginning to manifest itself.
00:17:09.520 New York City mayor-elect Zoran Mamdami, who, by the way, has raised millions of dollars from
00:17:15.080 special interests for his transition, so much for this being a people's movement, has stated
00:17:23.000 that the city will no longer conduct sweeps of homeless encampments when he gets to be mayor.
00:17:28.920 This will follow what has happened in cities like Portland, Oregon.
00:17:32.560 And in the name of humanitarian compassion, they essentially let vagrants, homeless people run the streets.
00:17:41.600 As a result, in places like Portland, drug abuse has skyrocketed.
00:17:47.740 Parts of the city have been literally abandoned as the entire town devolves into a modern wasteland.
00:17:54.340 That is ultimately what will happen in New York if Mamdami is allowed to implement his policies with no check from Albany or Washington.
00:18:08.040 We've already seen the results of cashless bail in New York City.
00:18:12.920 The New York City crime statistics is put forward by the New York City Police Department
00:18:17.620 and submitted to the FBI are what my friends in law enforcement, the real professionals, call a fugazi,
00:18:25.260 meaning they've been manipulated to try to persuade you that crime is down by reclassifying certain crimes as what they are not.
00:18:34.300 There's a dozen ways to manipulate the crime statistics.
00:18:37.560 I have to get my friend, former New York police officer Sal Greco, on the show to explain how crime is actually up in New York City,
00:18:44.920 but how they've manipulated the facts.
00:18:47.620 I'm Roger Stone. You're listening to The Stone Zone.
00:18:50.480 When we come back, I'm going to tell you how three corrupt left-wing Democrat judges submarine the very legitimate case against FBI Director James Comey.
00:19:01.800 So don't go away. We'll be right back.
00:19:07.260 The Stone Zone. Entertaining and informative.
00:19:12.020 On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
00:19:14.960 Welcome back to The Stone Zone.
00:19:17.300 I mean, I lived in the Washington swamp for many years.
00:19:21.480 I'm a veteran of 13 national presidential campaigns, beginning with Richard Nixon,
00:19:26.800 all the way through Ronald Reagan and culminating with perhaps the greatest of them all, Donald J. Trump.
00:19:34.600 I spent 50 years in the corroded rectum of the two-party system.
00:19:37.840 I've seen it all.
00:19:39.500 Now I'm going to tell you how three left-wing Democrat judges dismantled the federal indictment of FBI Director James Comey in an outrageous example of judicial overreach.
00:19:53.860 The American public expects prosecutors to prove cases and defendants to challenge them.
00:19:59.940 But in the case of the United States versus James B. Comey, the former FBI Director, something very different than that occurred.
00:20:08.560 A federal grand jury voted to indict the former FBI Director on two felony counts.
00:20:13.440 And then three federal judges unraveled that indictment using conjecture, media narratives, personalized attacks on prosecutors,
00:20:23.600 and procedural anomalies that would have had no precedent previously in federal criminal practice.
00:20:30.280 Together, everything that happened reveals a pattern of inconsistent, a pattern completely inconsistent with the concept of judicial neutrality.
00:20:41.480 These judges abandon their ethical obligations and they ignore the constitutional role of the grand jury.
00:20:49.160 First, there is Judge Michael Moknemoff.
00:20:52.100 He, of course, was appointed by Joe Biden.
00:20:55.480 He engaged in extraordinary bias, open admission that he was relying on the media to ascertain the facts of the case and outright hostility towards the prosecutor, Lindsay Halligan.
00:21:09.560 Judge Moknemoff began the case by introducing a loaded political framing of the U.S. attorney herself, Lindsay Halligan.
00:21:18.240 He said that she was a stalking horse, a puppet, or for a better word, doing the president's bidding.
00:21:25.480 Judge, you just revealed you're biased.
00:21:27.660 You must recuse yourself.
00:21:29.480 Had Halligan made that motion, of course, this judge would have declined.
00:21:35.400 Then the judge went on to rely on newspaper accounts instead of the actual evidence in front of him.
00:21:42.160 Knocked him off.
00:21:42.820 The judge actually referenced specific stories and news reporting as a factual basis for his views.
00:21:50.760 This was reported that the president said the following.
00:21:53.820 The judge cannot rely on external reporting.
00:21:56.860 Canon 3 of federal judicial presence forbids it.
00:22:02.300 But this reporting shaped his skepticism towards the Department of Justice's independence.
00:22:07.580 And he was so dumb, he actually said it from the bench.
00:22:10.900 Can you say complaint to the Office of Professional Responsibility?
00:22:16.140 Then, of course, he continually interrupted the prosecutor, all those interruptions being one-sided.
00:22:22.400 So when prosecutors attempted to explain the internal process at the Department of Justice, the judge said, well, let me stop you right there.
00:22:31.720 The government was repeatedly interrupted.
00:22:33.600 The defense, Comey's lawyers were never interrupted once in their arguments, not once.
00:22:38.740 Lindsay Halligan, the prosecutor, was interrupted numerous times by this hacked Democrat judge.
00:22:45.880 The government then filed a notice correcting the record after silencing the U.S. attorney and first misstating the record.
00:22:55.900 So in other words, the judge made a false statement regarding the case from the bench.
00:23:02.560 When Halligan tried, respectively, to correct the judge, he ordered her to sit down.
00:23:09.160 He was then compelled to file a notice correcting the record, basically admitting that his recounting of the facts before the grand jury had been factually wrong, biased.
00:23:22.920 Then, of course, the judge also prejudged the prosecutorial independence.
00:23:27.320 Most concerning, I think, was his statement that he would struggle to find independence, even if Halligan asserted it under oath.
00:23:35.640 Given the sequences of event in this short time, it would be very difficult for the court to make a finding of the true independence and objectivity of the prosecutor.
00:23:43.620 What about the independence of the judge?
00:23:45.560 The evidence in this case was overwhelming.
00:23:51.960 There is no question whatsoever that Comey made material statements under oath to Congress to hide his involvement in the Russian collusion hoax.
00:24:01.800 But it really didn't matter because the judge in this case was going to dismiss anyway.
00:24:07.220 Then there's Judge Cameron McGowan Curry.
00:24:11.300 She was an out-of-district intervention.
00:24:14.080 That's illegal.
00:24:15.560 She, again, she depended on the media, and she made personal attacks on the prosecutor.
00:24:20.880 Senior Judge Cameron Curry of South Carolina was designated for the case, dismissed the indictment outright.
00:24:28.540 Her written opinion describes Halligan, the prosecutor, as a White House aide who has no prosecutorial experience.
00:24:35.660 That is prejudicial.
00:24:38.140 Also, she said there was not legal reasoning in her arguments in case.
00:24:44.640 That's a character belittlement, David Schoen, Alan Dershowitz.
00:24:49.240 Everyone who's examined this case says it has merit and it's open and shut.
00:24:54.240 But not when a left-wing Democrat judge is on the bench.
00:24:57.760 It is also interesting that Curry, the judge brought in from South Carolina, said that she relied on media reports to explain the facts of the case.
00:25:14.380 She said there was abundant newspaper reporting.
00:25:17.760 Once again, under the canon of ethics, they're not allowed to make assumptions based on media points.
00:25:26.040 Cases must be ruled by either evidence submitted to the court or sworn testimony.
00:25:33.000 So, in other words, a judge from another state was brought in to overturn a Virginia indictment.
00:25:41.160 There's really no explanation as to why a dispositive constitutional motion in the Eastern District of Virginia was routed to a judge hundreds of miles away for a decision.
00:25:52.540 This creates the unmistakable importance of forum shopping.
00:25:58.620 This is about as likely as the spin of the wheel giving Judge Boasberg in D.C., the federal judge, every single case that has to do with Donald Trump.
00:26:08.660 Sorry, that defies the odds.
00:26:10.460 Why hasn't the Trump Justice Department asked the clerk of the D.C. courts to see the evidence of the selection, the random selection, which by law must be maintained?
00:26:24.680 But that, of course, hasn't happened.
00:26:26.500 You may remember when it was learned that Lisa Cole, I think her name was, who was a Federal Reserve Board governor who had also cheated on her mortgage forms.
00:26:44.360 That case went to a federal judge that was assigned to a judge who was her sorority sister.
00:26:49.580 Once again, the clerk of the D.C. courts should be asked to prove the judge was picked on a random basis as required by law.
00:27:00.620 So this case of Comey just continues to shock me.
00:27:05.820 Now you have forum shopping.
00:27:08.260 Federal courts take extraordinary care normally to avoid even the appearance of judge shopping, especially in a highly charged, politically sensitive case like this.
00:27:17.460 That was not the case in this case, however.
00:27:21.000 A dispositive ruling in a high profile criminal case was made outside the district by a judge who was brought in by the federal judges, by a judge with no connection to the venue, with no record explanation for why this assignment was made, and no indication why the presiding judge ever had even reviewed the grand jury evidence.
00:27:44.160 There's no evidence that the judges looked at the grand jury evidence.
00:27:48.080 That's because they had pre-decided to dismiss this case.
00:27:54.120 Also, by the way, the judge dismissed the indictment against James Comey, contrary to all legal precedents.
00:28:00.880 Curry quoted the United States v. Calandra, a very famous case, saying the validity of indictment is not affected by the character of the evidence.
00:28:09.020 She then dismissed the indictment based on the character of the evidence, evidenced by her own admission she had never even examined.
00:28:18.500 Magistrate Judge William Fitzpatrick was the third of the three musketeers.
00:28:23.820 This guy's just as crooked as the other two.
00:28:26.920 I think he distorted the facts in this case.
00:28:29.260 You hear from the bench conjecture, a number of false statements and other ethical breaches that violate the canon of ethics for a federal judge.
00:28:40.340 Of the judges involved, I think Judge Fitzpatrick's actions represent the most extreme departure from our normal judicial standards.
00:28:49.320 His rulings were built on altered transcript context, inverted suspicion, and full disregard for sworn clarifications.
00:28:59.480 The government explains that Fitzpatrick did not simply misinterpret Halligan's instructions.
00:29:05.420 He rearranged them for the jury.
00:29:08.160 He splits what was a single continuous statement into two at one point.
00:29:12.000 I read it.
00:29:13.000 Creating a meaning not present in the actual text of what Halligan submitted.
00:29:17.760 In other words, he rewrote her proposal.
00:29:20.760 He took one uninterrupted instruction and treated it as several parts of an independent document, essentially manufacturing complete confusion.
00:29:32.560 The admitted part of the instructions for the jury was dispositive.
00:29:38.440 It proved that the prosecutor acted incorrectly.
00:29:41.040 In filings, Lindsey Halligan emphasized the gravity of what Fitzpatrick had excluded from her filings.
00:29:46.820 The portion that Fitzpatrick omitted was dispositive of whether the prosecutor acted correctly, showing whether or not Halligan had given the jury correct legal instructions, meaning Fitzpatrick rewrote the judge's motion that would go to the jury to undermine her.
00:30:07.620 And he also put words in her mouth.
00:30:11.580 Judge Fitzpatrick's conclusions would be called distorted and unsound by the high-level lawyer I had read the transcript.
00:30:19.040 The government's language is unequivocal.
00:30:21.780 Prosecutors said that they relied on the signed documents in the case.
00:30:27.260 The judge said that that analysis was unsound.
00:30:32.580 Once again, demonstration of bias.
00:30:35.780 That's anti-factually reconstructed the government's own submissions in the case.
00:30:41.660 There's so many violations here that it's hard to believe.
00:30:46.220 Canon 2A speaks to the integrity and avoidance of speculation.
00:30:50.800 All three of these judges speculated from the bench.
00:30:53.480 Canon 3A, part 4 says, findings must be based only on the record.
00:30:59.520 In other words, you can't rely on news reports.
00:31:03.360 You must rely on the actual documents in the case.
00:31:07.920 The judges here didn't do so.
00:31:09.980 The missing minutes theory was false.
00:31:12.200 That was contradicted by the transcript.
00:31:14.260 The judge Fitzpatrick suggested that a gap in the transcript of Lindsay Halligan's presentation to the grand jury was somehow nefarious and claimed falsely that she had never presented two of the 12 counts against Comey to the grand jury.
00:31:31.560 That was false.
00:31:33.440 But he speculated about it from the bench.
00:31:37.100 So, if you wonder why FBI Director James Comey was able to lie to Congress regarding material matters, lie repeatedly about whether he had leaked or ordered others to leak classified documents to the New York Times,
00:31:52.580 and don't look to this case as the adjudicator of whether or not that happened.
00:32:01.780 The manner in which this case was dismissed violates everything we know about our legal system.
00:32:08.840 And it is analogous to what happened in the case of New York Attorney General Letitia James.
00:32:17.500 The other thing that happened here that I found shocking was the judge in the Comey case ordered unprecedented disclosure of grand jury materials.
00:32:24.860 Based on that distorted foundation, he ordered all grand jury materials, including the audio.
00:32:29.840 This is a breach of secrecy that was later stayed by a higher court for lacking actual grounding.
00:32:38.560 So, the fix was in on the Comey case, just as the fix was in on the Letitia Brown case.
00:32:45.320 But my question going forward really is a broader one.
00:32:48.100 In the larger case, of the largest single dirty trick in American history, the abuse of power and the seditious conspiracy behind the Russian collusion hoax, two false impeachments, the January 6th hoax, the so-called documents hoax, and this tsunami of lawfare in New York State,
00:33:12.360 is anyone going to be held accountable now that all the documents have been declassified, showing the criminal actions of people like Brennan and Comey and Clapper and James and Adam Schiff and others?
00:33:27.820 Will anybody be held accountable?
00:33:30.240 Will we see justice?
00:33:32.460 I'm Roger Stone.
00:33:33.680 You're listening to The Stone Zone, and we'll be right back.
00:33:36.420 The Stone Zone, entertaining and informative.
00:33:44.000 On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
00:33:46.940 Welcome back to The Stone Zone.
00:33:48.720 I was reviewing the outrageous judicial decisions.
00:33:52.140 First, the decision to dismiss the case against former FBI Director James Comey.
00:33:57.160 Then, yesterday, the failure of a grand jury to reindict New York Attorney General Letitia James.
00:34:04.640 These indictments didn't fail.
00:34:07.400 They were dismantled over and over again.
00:34:09.280 The record shows the bench was working harder.
00:34:11.980 The judge was working harder than the defense to find reasons to doubt the case.
00:34:16.100 In some cases, the judge volunteered new theories, new suspicions, new obstacles.
00:34:21.160 The defense then adopted, rather than simply refereeing a fair contest between the prosecution and the defense,
00:34:27.040 the judges appeared as just another member of the prosecution team.
00:34:31.520 Exactly what happened in my trial.
00:34:34.640 This case against Comey, as well as the case against James, didn't collapse because of evidentiary weakness.
00:34:41.280 They both collapsed because of outright judicial bias.
00:34:46.100 At key moments, the judges themselves seemed to be generating more attacks on the case and the prosecutor
00:34:51.280 than the hapless Abby Lowell offered on behalf of his client, Letitia James.
00:34:57.460 Supplying new doubts instead of simply weighing the ones already raised in the legal filings.
00:35:03.220 Again, this wasn't a judicial review.
00:35:05.780 This was a judicial dismantling.
00:35:08.340 If judicial integrity matters, if what happens, of course, matters in the United States,
00:35:12.400 then this case deserves far more scrutiny.
00:35:15.780 But more importantly, it remains to be seen whether we will have justice in the greatest crime of the century,
00:35:23.000 because there is no question now, based on the documents declassified by the director of national intelligence,
00:35:29.120 Tulsi Gabbard, that there was a seditious conspiracy that began on April 17th,
00:35:34.100 pardon me, April 12th, 19, 2016, to fabricate a narrative against Donald Trump to claim that his campaign was waged with the assistance of Russian intelligence.
00:35:48.920 And we know definitively that they used two pieces of completely fabricated evidence to make that case.
00:35:56.480 The Steele dossier, which the FBI and the DOJ knew was unreliable, knew had been fabricated and paid for by Hillary Clinton's campaign.
00:36:07.020 This was a report that claimed that Donald Trump had partied with Russian prostitutes when he visited Moscow as a private businessman.
00:36:14.080 It was a total fraud.
00:36:15.500 And then the false claim that the Russians hacked the DNC and they gave that that sensitive information about the Democrats and Hillary Clinton to WikiLeaks.
00:36:26.180 And to this day, no one can produce any forensic evidence that proves that the Democrat National Committee was the target of an online hack by the Russians or anyone else.
00:36:36.160 In fact, all of the forensic evidence shows that the data stolen from DNC was downloaded to hard drives and taken out the back door.
00:36:45.740 How do we know that?
00:36:46.420 We know that from the time of the download, the timing of the download.
00:36:51.800 So they use those two fraudulent claims to claim that Donald Trump engaged with the Russians.
00:36:56.960 Later, they would say Paul Manafort, his campaign manager, shared sensitive polling information with a Russian intelligence asset, except for the man they claim that Manafort shared data with.
00:37:08.440 Constantine Clement has now been proven to be a U.S. intelligence asset.
00:37:13.380 So will these people start at the top, Obama, Biden, National Security Advisor, Susan Rice, FBI Director, James Comey, the ringleader, CIA Director, John Brennan, admitted communist, Islamic convert.
00:37:32.040 James Comey, again, the FBI Director, Andrew McCabe, his henchman, Robert Mueller himself, although he'll probably use an insanity defense at this point, epically corrupt prosecutor, Andrew Weissman.
00:37:52.360 Will any of these people who engage in unconstitutional and illegal activities in order to execute a coup be prosecuted?
00:38:02.660 It began in the Oval Office, but the seditious conspiracy continues through two fraudulent impeachments in which the two Vindman brothers show up and lie about what they heard on a phone call in the Ukrainian impeachment.
00:38:15.180 It goes on to the January 6th nonsense and then the raid on Mar-a-Lago at Trump's home.
00:38:20.860 I say it is time for justice.
00:38:23.320 If we don't hear something from the Southern District of Florida, where jurisdiction is, other than the fact that there were some subpoenas announced months ago, that many people in the MAGA movement are going to lose faith.
00:38:36.600 Me? I'm praying for justice and accountability.
