Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Last week the Feds brought the first conspiracy charges against a leader of the “Oath Keepers” extremist group in relation to the January 6th U.S. Capitol domestic terrorist attack. Conspiracy charges open the door for others in the conspiracy to also be charged – and that could be bad news for Roger Stone.

Stone’s name has already been widely linked to the incitement of the Capitol attack, but is there enough to criminally charge him for it? Now it turns out Stone not only met with the Oath Keepers the night before the attack, Vice says he used them as security. This means Stone will have one heck of a time trying to explain how he wasn’t conspiring to incite the attack the next morning.

Donald Trump pardoned Roger Stone just before leaving office, but that was only for specific crimes in relation to the Mueller probe. If Stone ends up being charged as part of the Capitol attack conspiracy, his pardon won’t help him at all. We suspect Stone will end up in prison after all.
