The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Yep, CNN just happened to have a camera crew set up at Roger Stones house at just the time to video the predawn raid by a heavily armed FBI swat team. Strictly good journalism. Probably has their camera crew hiding in the bushes for weeks or months just in case something newsworthy might occur outside of his home.

That was three, four years ago. You did note he gave exceptions? So you dismiss a veteran reporters commentary on how he knows these progress? We are talking leaks here and who is doing them, not arrests.

Here:
The rare, dramatic video from CNN Friday capturing the early morning FBI raid of longtime Donald Trump confidante Roger Stone's Florida home was the product of good instincts, some key clues, more than a year of observing comings at the DC federal courthouse and the special counsel's office ' and a little luck on the timing.

CNN producer David Shortell and photojournalist Gilbert De La Rosa were outside Stone's home Friday morning to witness the FBI approaching Stone's door to arrest him on a seven-count indictment that special counsel Robert Mueller's grand jury approved a day earlier.

They were there staking out Stone because there was just enough evidence lurking in the special counsel's activity over the past week that CNN's team covering the Mueller investigation placed a bet that Stone could be arrested as early as Friday.
