In testimony before the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday, Attorney General William Barr insisted that he does not read President Trump's tweets, including one in which the president said Roger Stone had shown “guts” by not testifying against him.
Swalwell then asked Barr if he was familiar with a December 2018 tweet in which Trump praised Stone’s vow that he would never testify against the president. Stone was convicted in November of lying to Congress in special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation and was later sentenced to three years and four months in prison. That sentence was commuted by Trump on July 10, days before Stone was due to report to prison.
