The investigation by Special Counsel Robert Mueller into President Donald Trump, his Organization, his White House, his administration, his close circle and his White House seems now like it has been going on for many lifetimes. It certainly feels like much longer than two years ago at this point that the Justice Department (specifically, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein) found itself forced to commission the former Director of the FBI to set up a probe to investigate the claims that the campaign to elect then Republican candidate Donald Trump as President of the United States and leader of the free world during the 2016 presidential election colluded with Russian state actors in order to steal the result of the election and the White House from rival Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, and then committed obstruction of justice afterwards in a desperate attempt to cover it up.
One of the biggest accomplishments of the Mueller probe has been to take down some of the most well known pro Trump faces and key agents in the Trump machine, such as Roger Stone. It was several months ago now that he first entered the limelight in terms of his association with Trump and the 2016 election campaign and the very troubling things he is alleged to have done in order to help out his friend. However, when we were all focussed on Paul Manafort and Michael Cohen, Stone was doing very little, and he hoped he had got away with it and could fade away and would be forgotten about. That notion was shattered in the most brutal way possible recently when a judge took a big step forward towards sending him to prison for a very long time indeed in a move that shocked everyone, including Stone himself:
That man is going down. Justice is slowly being restored and it does not look like there is any escape route now for these men.
