Members of the militia group Oath Keepers who were seen providing security for Trump confidant Roger Stone in Washington D.C. on January 5 and 6 entered the U.S. Capitol during the insurrection. Stone was filmed outside the Willard InterContinental hotel the morning of the attack.
The NYT reports: “Mr. Stone, a convicted felon who was pardoned by Mr. Trump, has a long history as a self-proclaimed ‘dirty trickster' political operative who has lived by the edicts of attack, admit nothing, deny everything, and counterattack. He posted a message online denying involvement in ‘the lawless acts at the Capitol.'”
