Coton de Tulear

President Trump’s longtime adviser Roger Stone was charged Friday with lying and witness tampering in connection with the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.
He also threatened to steal a dog, according to the indictment by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III.
The indictment does not name the dog or the dog’s owner. But people close to the case told The Washington Post that the person is a Stone associate named Randy Credico, a comedian and former New York radio host.
Credico said Stone threatened him after he publicly denied being Stone’s back-channel connection to WikiLeaks during the campaign. That intimidation included an April text in which Stone called Credico a “rat” and a “stoolie” and vowed to “take that dog away from you,” according to the indictment.
Credico has what he refers to as a “therapy dog,” a Coton de Tulear named Bianca. News that Stone had threatened a dog — which, to be clear, is a supporting detail in the indictment and not itself cited as a crime — quickly made Bianca a star on Twitter, where she was cast as a blameless victim of a cruel threat.
But was Stone threatening Bianca or Credico? What might he have done with Bianca had he committed the dognapping? The indictment does not say. If Stone is to be believed — and that is the heart of the matter — the dog might have been in safe hands. That is because Stone, a self-professed “dirty trickster,” is also a self-professed dog fanatic.

And in the third grade he pulled a girl’s hair. Mueller’s on it.
Dear Karin,
1. Find something vaguely intelligent to write about.
2. Start by learning how to spell Karen correctly.
That is a lame domplaint. Geez. How petty are they over at the FBI?

I sure hope Mueller got Stones yearbook from high school.
Fart jokes could really mean he was in contact with Russian spies and stuff.
That type of lawlessness must account for the 29 man assault team that was sent out to arrest such a vicious desperado.
You never know what you will encounter with such a force of nature.
Is this true?
I hope at the end of this that Mr. Mueller stands trial and is imprisoned for his malfeasance in the Bulger affair.
But did he drink beer?
Just stories.
He wasn’t indicted for threatening to steal a dog.
arrest Mueller and his Dem attorneys. this farce has cost Americans much more than the $$$ involved.
But did he drink beer?

I hope not. They will give him the chair.
They supposedly had photographic proof that he has smirked in the past. They’ll nail him on that one.
I guess complaining to someone could be obstruction? Certainly the “threats” were silly.
Is PDJT’s inner circle holding tight to dirt on Mueller, Pelosi, others to use when they think they need it or is there no way to get dirt on these folks?
I’m starting to think they have nothing to use for leverage.
I just can’t take the levels of stupid this country is mired in. It’s all cognitive dissonance all the time.
Journalism died circa 2008.

#5. Our Belgian Malinois K9 used to call Cotons “lunch”.
Talking about dogs - since this WP story is full of dog shit - I might as well tell a “funny”.
My daughter has a Pitbull-Bulldog, now about the size of a Patton tank, with very strong jaws and sharp teeth. He’s still a baby and just learning the ropes of living in a house with (once 4 cats but the Persian died) 3 cats - a female tabby (Rosy) who runs about 15 pounds; a little white and gold tabby-like cat, named Minny; and all black cat named Nemo, who weighs in at about 20 lbs and is gentle as a piece of cotton.
Rosy once put our 80 lb Malinois in her place, seriously in her place. So yesterday Gunny, the Pit-bulldog, started to play around with Rosy and Nemo. It looked like an all-girl swat ‘em fight with paws flying at heads and fake bites, etc.
And in this corner, weighing in at 40 lbs is Gunny, vs the tag-team match of Rosy the Riveter (15 lbs) and Nemo (25+). Gunny led with a nose while Rosy returned a paw to his face. Then Nemo double-teamed Gunny with another right. Gunny returned a paw to Rosy’s head before refs could separate the sparring herd of fur.
After only one round, it was Rosy/Nemo 4, Gunny, 1. Then it was time for dinner until the next tussle. No fur, no wounds, no wounded pride. Just a good exchange of paws to show who is still the boss of the house - Rosy. Nemo retired to his sub pen and Gunny went back to his 105, till the next time.
Animals are definitely more fun than many humans, esp. Democrats.
As for Roger Stone, he’s got a wicked sense of humor, and like a vampire, it can be biting as I suspect Mueller and his Fascistic minions are going to find out.
Now this guy Credico, who I know nothing about, is someone who might turn out to be more than he seems. Something about him doesn’t look right. Time for some serious investigative real journalism to see who he is. Stone might tell us but I’d love to hear from other people.
This Mueller probe has more characters than the Manson family story but since Mueller and company refuse to interview the key players, I’ll take anyone right now just to break the boredom of the case and the stench of partisanship.
An indictment is a tool used by a government legal officer to make an accusation sufficient to initiate a judicial action that can result in a criminal conviction following a trial where both sides present facts and arguments. It appears that the WaPo, an organ of the Deep State department of propaganda and publicity, regards the trial as superfluous and, like the Red Queen, prefers sentence first, trial later.
