Trump confidant and former official advisor Roger Stone told a Utah crowd his pardon from former Republican President Donald Trump was the result of divine intervention.

While campaigning for Utah Republican House candidate Jason Preston, Stone claimed God told Trump to pardon him back in 2020 for his felony convictions of witness tampering, obstructing an official proceeding and making false statements to Congress.


Stone said:

"I’m convinced to this day that God gave Donald Trump the strength and the courage to pardon me in an election year and free me from this vile political persecution."

In another one on one with the Lord, Stone said God told him:

"God came and told me [Utah Republican Senator Mitt Romney] needs to be removed from the U.S. Senate."

Oddly, Romney is one of the few Trump critics in the GOP.


Stone also referred to Utah Republican Senator Mike Lee as a "great American patriot" and Trump as the greatest President since Lincoln during the same rally.

Twitter seemed dubious of Stone's claims of divine intervention and personal conversations with God.






In 2020, Stone was sentenced to 40 months in prison for several felonies before being pardoned by Trump.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
