President Trump Commutes Roger Stone's Sentence

This Abridge News topic aggregates four unique arguments on different sides of the debate. Here are the quick facts to get you started:

THE QUICK FACTS

• On Friday, July 10, 2020, President Trump signed an Executive Grant of Clemency commuting the sentence of Roger Stone.
• Roger Stone was charged with lying to Congress about the Trump campaign's ties to WikiLeaks. The decision erases Roger Stone's 40-month prison sentence, but does not remove Stone's "guilty" verdict.
• An online statement from the White House Press Secretary states, "Roger Stone is a victim of the Russia Hoax that the Left and its allies in the media perpetuated for years in an attempt to undermine the Trump Presidency."
• The statement concludes with, "Roger Stone has already suffered greatly. He was treated very unfairly, as were many others in this case. Roger Stone is now a free man!"
