Roger Stone’s new book includes an introduction slamming special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation, something he was barred from doing under his gag order.
A federal judge in Washington, D.C., Thursday morning declined to rule whether longtime Donald Trump political adviser and self-described GOP “dirty trickster” Roger Stone was in violation of a court-imposed gag order, after he and his attorneys failed to disclose the release of a new book.
But Stone’s book, The Myth of Russian Collusion: The Inside Story of How Donald Trump REALLY Won, a re-release of one from 2016 with updated information, includes a new introduction slamming special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation. Stone described himself as being on “Mueller’s hit list,” which was written before his arrest for obstruction, lying to Congress and witness tampering. Stone has pleaded not guilty.

"Given the fact that some were specifically hired to deal with the First Amendment issues, and that we’re having a hearing about his ability to publish, I suppose they probably should have inquired," Jackson told Smith.
