The Department of Justice (DOJ) said in a court filing Thursday that it supports GOP operative and Trump ally Roger Stone starting his jail sentence next week.
DOJ, which has caught flak from critics who accuse it of being soft on Stone, wrote that the July 14 start of his prison sentence set by a judge is "a reasonable exercise of that court's discretion based on the totality of the factual and legal circumstances."
Stone has asked an appeals court to delay his 40-month prison sentence, citing his age and concerns regarding several coronavirus cases reported in the Georgia facility where he is set to serve his sentence.

Pre-order Klayman’s It Takes a Revolution: Forget the Scandal Industry! (coming Oct. 27)
How to wage a peaceful revolution to restore rule of law, ethics, and morality to the nation
With a title that satirically mocks Hillary Clinton, this book details how our executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government have become thoroughly corrupt and failed the citizenry. This work is a call to arms during these times of crises, when government corruption has hit a “cancerous state.” The overriding message is that Americans should turn off cable news, get up off of the couch, and join the second American Revolution to restore the greatness of our nation in these perilous times.
