FBI rousted Trump advisor Roger Stone at his Florida home at 6 a.m. today to arrest him on charges he lied and tried to tamper with witnesses when questioned about Trump campaign collusion on use of hacked emails against Hillary Clinton.

Of course the Trump campaign or people with ties to it like Stone colluded, coordinated, communicated or otherwise cashed in on foreign contacts (Wikileaks, for example). Trump himself was blissfully unaware, right?

“After the July 22, 2016 release of stolen DNC emails… a senior Trump campaign official was directed to contact Stone about any additional releases and what other damaging information Organization 1 had regarding the Clinton campaign. Stone thereafter told the Trump campaign about potential future releases of damaging material by Organization 1,” the indictment states.

The Washington Post simplifies the web of connections here.

Also, the list of charges against Trump-related people is epic.
