    This is actually exonerating given what WaPo reported. If Stone was still seeking to meet Assange in June and July, he hadn't met Assange in spring.https://twitter.com/TheBeatWithAri/status/973693221250437120 …

        It's possible WaPo's anon source means that Stone learned of the emails before Assange announced them and WaPo reported on them in June (the currently public story). That's possible! Indeed, it may be that Papadopoulos had been told the anon release would be WL.

        Let me be very clear: I think Stone is guilty as fuck. https://www.emptywheel.net/2018/03/07/roger-stones-swiss-cheese-denials/ … https://www.emptywheel.net/2018/03/12/how-the-dnc-hack-skeptics-dominant-theory-sinks-stone/ … I just think reporting on this is still muddled & likely has the wrong focus.

        seems to be in conflict but "meet" and "heard from" not nec the same

        Not necessarily. Roger Stone telling this guy he'd like to meet with Assange doesn't mean he hadn't prior, or hadn't made contact, right?

        @shaneharris pc didn’t specify in-person meet Just said @stoneonstyle “had learned” in spring 16 @JulianAssange had emails on Dems Actually could be seen as motive for Roger Rtfckr’s thirst to meet Ass-ange in person before election @dandoesdocs has more info, perhapspic.twitter.com/S9jGfqgtIk

        The wheels are coming off the Russiagate bus. Felix Sater is apparently James Bond, not a Russian agent, etc.

        No reason he can’t be both. He’s an asset. Probably for anyone who will pay.

        Could be a space alien agent too. Known facts are stubborn though. And the lineup of govt officials vouching for him might mean they're ignorant or on a foreign payroll too.

        Well, it's not going to be in terms of public perception at least, because no more than an infintesimally small number of people care about whether the latest part of their Russia narrative contradicts the other parts.

        You said meet. I think the video suggests 'contact'. Not necessarily face-to-face meeting.
