In a court filing on Friday, Bob Mueller’s office said that it had gathered evidence that Roger Stone worked with WikiLeaks and Russia to elect Donald Trump president. This is the most clear evidence yet that Donald Trump was not legitimately elected President of the United States.
Because of other big news yesterday, such as Donald Trump trying to destroy the U.S. Constitution by declaring a bogus national emergency, this Mueller news has not gotten the attention it deserves.
Yesterday we reported that:
“Special Counsel Robert Mueller has evidence of communications between Roger Stone, and WikiLeaks related to the release of hacked Democratic Party emails.â€

“In a court filing on Friday, Mueller’s office said it had gathered that evidence in a separate probe into Russian intelligence officers who were charged by Mueller of hacking the emails during the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign and staging their release.â€
The truth is that these revelations by Mueller not only prove that Roger Stone committed treason and other crimes, they also prove without a doubt that there was illegal collusion (i.e., conspiracy) between Russia and Donald Trump’s campaign for the presidency.
In short, Mueller’s filing for the first time proves that Donald Trump is an illegitimate president. The filing last night revealed that Mueller’s team had seized numerous communications between Stone and the Russian government hacker group called Guccifer 2.0.
This means that there is irrefutable, documented evidence that Stone was criminally conspiring with the Russian government to affect the outcome of the 2016 presidential election in favor of Trump.
Stone was an official Trump campaign adviser for a short period of time, and he remained a personal political adviser to Donald Trump throughout the campaign. Try as he might, Trump cannot distance himself from Stone’s activities.
All Mueller needs to do now is provide evidence to a court that Donald Trump knew Roger Stone was conspiring with Russia to help him win the 2016 election. If he can do that then he can prove that Trump is also guilty of the crimes which Stone committed.
In other words, yesterday’s court filing shows that Mueller is now just one short step away from convicting Donald Trump for illegally conspiring against the United States to influence the 2016 election in his favor.
Mueller’s decision to reveal proof of collusion in an unredacted court filing shows that he is now ready to take down Donald Trump and his entire presidency.
