Trump pal Roger Stone kicked off Twitter after vulgar rant



Twitter had one less ranter Saturday with the suspension of Roger Stone, right-wing firebrand and reported friend of President Trump.
Stone went on a profanity-laced multi-post rant Friday night against CNN anchors Don Lemon and Jake Tapper, the Washington Post’s Carl Bernstein, the Weekly Standard’s Bill Kristol, and other journalists and commentators.
The screed — which riffed off reports that special counsel Paul Manafort’s investigation was leading to indictments — got more scatological and profanity-laced as it went on.
“Breaking: Mueller indicts PaulManafort‘s driver for double parking,” Stone posted.
Later: “@donlemon stop lying about about the Clinton’s and Uranium you ignorant lying covksucker !!!! You fake news you dumb piece of s**t.” He also called some CNN personalities “human excrement.”
Stone lobbed personal insults at Kristol, the neoconservative anti-Trump founder and editor at large of The Weekly Standard.
“Bill Kristol packing on the pounds #porky #Warmonger,” Stone tweeted.
The tweets likely ran afoul of Twitter’s policies against harassment and abusive behavior.
Stone’s account has been suspended at least twice before, in March and April of this year.
