Former Trump adviser Roger Stone was given an epic slap on the wrist by a D.C. judge on Thursday after Judge Amy Berman Jackson slapped him with another gag order following an Instagram 'death threat' levied at the Judge.

Stone posted a photo to Instagram featuring Berman Jackson with a crosshair next to her head, for which he was ordered to explain himself in court on Thursday.

Apologizing for violating her previous gag order, Stone said on Thursday: "I abused the order for which I'm heartfully sorry," adding "I'm kicking myself over my own stupidity but not more than my wife is kicking me."

Stone: "I recognize that I let the court down. I let you down. I let myself down. I let my family down. I let my attorneys down. I can only say I'm sorry. it was a momentary lapse in judgement. Perhaps I talk too much." — Darren Samuelsohn (@dsamuelsohn) February 21, 2019

Stone then blamed one of his five volunteers for downloading the image he posted.

"Mr. Stone, I'm not giving you another chance. I have serious doubts about whether you've learned any lesson at all," said Berman Jackson, who added that she wasn't buying Stone's apology - and would throw him in jail if he violates the new gag order.

Judge Jackson in backing up the gag order, which limits Stone from speaking at all about the case: "So no, Mr. Stone I'm not giving you another chance. I have serious doubts about whether you've learned any lesson at all." — Darren Samuelsohn (@dsamuelsohn) February 21, 2019

Judge Jackson says any more mess ups and Stone may be sent to jail. "I want to be clear today. I gave you a second chance. But this is not baseball. There will not be a third chance." — Darren Samuelsohn (@dsamuelsohn) February 21, 2019

In short, much ado about nothing.
