Here's Roger Stone Talking 'Insurrection Act' Before J6
In this exclusive clip from the doc A Storm Foretold, Trump operative Roger Stone is captured conversing with Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio.
Sounds like the documentary has lots of juicy bits a certain special prosecutor will surely want to see. Via Rolling Stone:
And now, in a video clip provided exclusively to Rolling Stone, Stone can be seen talking with Tarrio by phone on Nov. 5, 2020, at Stone’s office in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The clip is taken from Christoffer Guldbrandsen’s documentary A Storm Foretold, which chronicles how Stone’s “Stop the Steal” campaign led to the Jan. 6 assault on the Capitol. The film will be released in select theaters on Jan. 5.
“Stone had been busy, launching ‘Stop the Steal’ and mobilizing Trump allies and had just gotten off the phone with General Flynn, when Enrique Tarrio, the national leader of the Proud Boys, called. Tarrio’s voice was inaudible, but Stone is heard telling him that he is still waiting for an update from the campaign — before he says he needs to talk without the camera rolling,” Guldbrandsen tells Rolling Stone.
Guldbrandsen and his Danish camera crew shadowed Stone for years, gradually learning of his close ties with the Proud Boys, especially Tarrio.
“Tarrio was a fixture around Stone — helping him out, working with him on his social media, and even organizing a fundraiser for Stone just before his trial,” explains Guldbrandsen. “Stone was in close contact with Tarrio right up until the attack on Jan. 6 and after via encrypted apps.”
What Guldbrandsen wants viewers of A Storm Foretold to know is that the film “demonstrates that the most violent group at the forefront of the attack on the U.S. Capitol was closely connected to the Trump campaign through Roger Stone, Donald Trump’s friend and ally for more than 30 years.”
