President Trump ripped the pre-dawn arrest of former campaign adviser Roger Stone this morning by a massive, heavily armed FBI team, saying, “Border Coyotes, Drug Dealers and Human Traffickers are treated better.” Trump did not name Stone directly, but his comment asking, “Who alerted CNN to be there?”, makes clear he was referencing Stone’s arrest Friday morning. (UPDATE at end, CNN replies,)
Stone was arrested after being charged by Special Counsel Robert Mueller with process crimes related to his investigation into alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia to fix the 2016 presidential election for Trump. No evidence of collusion has been found and Stone is not charged with colluding with Russia.
“Greatest Witch Hunt in the History of our Country! NO COLLUSION! Border Coyotes, Drug Dealers and Human Traffickers are treated better. Who alerted CNN to be there?”

UPDATE: CNN replied to President Trump: “CNN’s ability to capture the arrest of Roger Stone was the result of determined reporting and interpreting clues revealed in the course of events. That’s called journalism. #FactsFirst”
