'Random' Photo of Judge That Was Posted on Stone's Instagram Can Easily Be Found on Pro-Russian Site


by Matt Naham | 5:18 pm, February 18th, 2019

An image that was posted on Roger Stone‘s Instagram account earlier Monday that Stone said was a “random” photo from the internet happens to have been used on pro-Russian websites, and recently.

Stone, in case you missed it, shared and then deleted the following image of Judge Amy Berman Jackson today:

At first glance, all you can really see clearly in the image is the crosshairs. When you do a quick reverse Google image search the photo leads to websites like “Russia News Now” and a blog called “Americans for Innovation,” among others.

Russia News Now’s mission statement is pretty… interesting:

Therussophile.org is an aggregator of news about Russia from alternative sources. We also aim to cover news from neighboring countries and countries connected with Russian interests, like Syria, China, Iran etc. We want this site to be the main location for you anyone who wants hourly updated reports from alternative news sources but don’t have the time or wish to search all over the Internet for such news.
