Roger Stone, in one of his typical fits of rage, posted an image of federal judge Amy Berman Jackson with a crosshair just above her head today on Instagram. The clear implication: he was calling for violence against the judge after she hit him with a partial gag order. After numerous observers pointed out that Stone’s bail would likely be revoked over the post, he deleted it. That’s when he launched into a total panicked meltdown.

Roger Stone posted this message, seemingly suggesting that he wasn’t even the one who posted the image to his account:

Then, when Stone realized that wasn’t going to fly, he posted this follow-up excuse:

Wait, so that’s supposed to make it better? Somewhere in there, Roger Stone texted CBS News reporter Kathryn Watson, saying he took the image down because it could be open to “miss interpretation.” The surreal typo suggests that Stone truly is in a panic. We suspect that Judge Amy Berman Jackson is about to become “Miss Interpretation” when she interprets that Stone’s threat is a reason to revoke his bail and throw him in jail.
