Larry Klayman, the founder of both Judicial Watch and now Freedom Watch, and a former U.S. Department of Justice prosecutor, issued this statement on the eve of Sean Hannity’s widely promoted Fox News’ “interview” of Roger Stone tonight: “Hannity, who simply runs interference for the president, who I also support, but whom I have had to be critical from time to time for his own benefit and that of the nation, will as usual not ask any real hard hitting questions of Roger Stone this evening.
