LOL - not good at Spanishing!
I dunno, seems to me the FBI guys arrested Stone for free.

It’s trivially easy to check. I doubt that he lied about that.
I guess the documentary “Get Me Roger Stone” takes on a whole new meaning now, eh?
Nixon Foundation Distances the Ex-President From Roger Stone .
“This morning’s widely-circulated characterization of Roger Stone as a Nixon campaign aide or adviser is a gross misstatement,” the foundation wrote in a tweet. “Mr. Stone was 16 years old during the Nixon presidential campaign of 1968 and 20 years old during the reelection campaign of 1972… Mr. Stone, during his time as a student at George Washington University, was a junior scheduler on the Nixon reelection committee. Mr. Stone was not a campaign aide or adviser.”
“Hey, we may be the foundation about a crook and a liar, but fuck this guy!”
Perhaps they didn’t want to give him a chance to apply for a stay of execution on the arrest warrant.
Which leads to the question of why they even bother to arrest him? Why not proceed by summons? Answer that question, and you’ve got a reason why they didn’t want him to apply for a stay of execution.
Mueller is milking this case like a true government employee. He’ll go on for years with this.
Get back to us when Mueller has spent half the time Ken Starr did.

And every time he squeezes he gets a guilty plea. Milk away, Mr. Mueller; drain that swamp!
The swamp? Oh Ft. Lauderdale.

Unlike all the other Trump criminals Mueller has charged, Stone vows to fight. I wondered how much sense Stone had, until I learned that he had a tattoo of Richard Nixon’s face on his back. So now I know how much sense he has.
WillFarnaby:
Why is that relevant?
Ken Starr spent seven years searching and all he got was a lousy blowjob.
Mueller has spent two and has indictments. Multiple indictments.
Can you describe in what way(s) you think Mr. Mueller is “milking this”?
I bet myself that there would be an example of Trump’s swamp style of business in Ft. Lauderdale, and sure enough:
A joint investigation by ProPublica and WNYC shows that many of the Trump Organization’s international deals bear the hallmarks of financial fraud, including money laundering, deceptive borrowing, lying to investors, and other potential crimes.
The same pattern emerged in other projects. In Fort Lauderdale, Trump announced that a hotel-condominium project was “pretty much sold out” in April, 2006, according to a broker who attended the presentation. In reality, sixty-two per cent of units were sold as of July, 2006, according to bank records that emerged in a court case. The project entered foreclosure, and Trump’s name was removed before construction was completed.
Many people lose in these schemes. Often a bank loses money that it has lent, or, alternatively, individual investors who bought bonds to support the project lose their money. The people who put a down payment on units often lose their down payments. When the whole thing collapsed, the Trumps, in many cases, stopped claiming—as they had during the rising period—that they were co-owners and developers of the project and began to state they were mere licensees who had no active involvement in the business. This is often untrue, as lawsuits have revealed that the Trumps were intimately involved with every aspect of construction and sales.
As for the swamp we do have now in the current administration, Trump himself said who are the guys he gets close to:
During a 2004 panel at the Museum of Television and Radio, in Los Angeles, Trump claimed that “every network” had tried to get him to do a reality show, but he wasn’t interested: “I don’t want to have cameras all over my office, dealing with contractors, politicians, mobsters, and everyone else I have to deal with in my business. You know, mobsters don’t like, as they’re talking to me, having cameras all over the room . It would play well on television, but it doesn’t play well with them.”
That’s the only explanation I can think of.
The Nixon Foundation distances itself from Roger Stone
On the day of his indictment by special counsel Robert Mueller, former Donald Trump adviser Roger Stone seems to have lost the support of one of his greatest heroes, former President Richard Nixon -- or at least Nixon's foundation.
Individual 1 distances himself from Roger Stone.
Trump and Stone, pictured together, have been friends for years with the latter 'remaining in close contact with Trump's team during the presidential campaign'. The president took to Twitter, inset.
Stolen from Tumblr:
Roger Stone’s lawyer says his client was arrested “like he was a black man.”
That’s ridiculous. Roger Stones is still alive.
All those buses could be better used for public transit.
