We want to turn back now to the indictment of roger stone. the trump associate who is now accused of seeking stolen e-mails from wikileaks, that could damage then candidate trumps opponent, while allegedly coordinating with senior trump campaign officials. a lawyer for wikileaks founder julian assange calls stones pre-dawn arrest intimidation and says the quote military-style arrest was wholly unnecessary. stone also playing down his arrest and insisted he never sought the stolen e-mails in coor...

Always maintained which is that there was no direct communication between stone and wikileaks, or between stone and the organizations founder julian assange. the view of wikileaks, and assanges supporters, is that stone wanted access to wikileaks information, and it was, and he was very happy for some people to think he could get it. but he deliberately promoted himself as a conduit to wikileaks. and to assange. perhaps via a back channel. even though wikileaks insists no such line of communicat...

Papadopoulos who maybe could, they could have argued, was only sort of tangentially a part of the trump campaign this. is roger stone who has been, one were his closest friends and advisers for years if not decades, so i think it is just laughable that the white house and sarah sanders are trying to distance the president from somebody like this. it is just not credible at all. >> also, that dramatic early morning raid that we saw, showing up before dawn, search warrant in hand, no interviews, n...
