Political humorist identified as Roger Stone's link to WikiLeaks: Sources

Former Trump adviser and longtime political troublemaker Roger Stone has been asked repeatedly how he knew, seemingly in advance, that WikiLeaks was going to publish damaging information about Hillary Clinton’s campaign. And he has repeatedly refused to answer, saying he had a “go-between” who did not wish to be named.

On Tuesday, however, Randy Credico, a New York comedian and political activist who hosts his own radio show, tweeted a picture of a congressional subpoena compelling him to appear on Dec. 15 before the House Intelligence Committee investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election. According to sources familiar with the investigation, Credico has been identified as the intermediary between Stone and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and will face questions from investigators about those relationships. - ABC News

The only reason they're reporting this is for the dumpster fire it presents. They play both sides for ratings.

simply an observation. Given that other corporate outlets have referred to him as "dirty trickster". While that's way too generous. It seems a bit more accurate.

Those would be replaced with Ratfucker and TreasonWeasel. Instead, we get 'unbiased', or you're clearly a dirty liberal that hates Murica.'
