Roger Stone: I Was Poisoned!

Donald Trump confidant Roger Stone appeared yesterday(link is external) on Alex Jones’ conspiracy theory program, where he alleged that he had been poisoned with polonium or a polonium-like substance, causing him to have fevers, lesions and extreme diarrhea.

Stone, who assured Jones that he is a healthy “user of the InfoWars supplements” peddled by Jones’ website, alleged that doctors found that he was poisoned but with too small a dose to kill him. While he didn’t say who poisoned him, he did suggest that it was part of a larger plot to sabotage Trump’s presidency, possibly tied to Mitt Romney’s senior adviser Dan Senor.

Jones, for his part, mentioned that former Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko(link is external) was killed as a result of polonium poisoning. While it is widely believed that Russian agents killed Litvinenko with a lethal dose of polonium, Jones, who idolizes Putin, claimed that Litvinenko’s poisoning was a “false flag” orchestrated by the British intelligence “to blame the Russians.”
