NEW: Roger Stone may be closer to arrest than you think. From Reuters, 4 leaders of the proud boys have been hit with superseding indictments for conspiracy. BURIED LEDE: There is an un-indicted co-conspirator. I think it's Roger Stone. Here's why... 1/ reuters.com/article/us-usa…

The 4 proud boys charged here are considered the leaders of their respective states' groups. I predicted they would be charged with conspiracy back in January b/c of this WaPo report. You can also hear it on my Feb 1st episode of the @dailybeanspod 2/. washingtonpost.com/national-secur…

That SAME DAY we reported the above WaPo story, we reported that rep Val Demmings called to investigate the January 5th meeting at trump international. This is important to what I'm about to discuss regarding the un-indicted co-conspirator. 3/

DON'T FORGET: we know that proud boys leader Enrique Tarrio, who was told by the FBI ahead of the insurrection NOT TO COME, was in communication with Roger Stone while out front of Marco Rubio's house. 4/ nytimes.com/2021/03/05/us/…

AND remember @rgoodlaw at Just Security reported exclusive video showing Stone with proud boys leaders Tarrio and Nordean at the December 12 "St*p the Ste*l" rally in DC. Roger is seen speaking into a bullhorn with Nordean's hand on his shoulder. 5/ justsecurity.org/74579/exclusiv…

In the latest Reuters reporting, an encrypted messenger channel called "Boots on the Ground" was created January 5th, the night of the meeting at trump's DC international hotel. The chat includes the 4 leaders charged for conspiracy & the un-indicted co-conpsirator 6/

The 4 leaders charged here with conspiracy are Nordean, Zehl, Biggs, & Donohoe. The un-indicted co-conpsirator told the messenger group that Nordean would be the leader of January 6: “Rufio is in charge, cops are the primary threat, don’t get caught by them or BLM." 7/

Stone hosted a fundraiser with Biggs at the trump international back in July of 2019. 8/ thecirclehotel.com/events/washing…

I'm convinced that Stone was leading this group of proud boys and is the unnamed co-conspirator in these charging documents. I imagine Stone will be indicted and refuse to cooperate. His pardon won't protect him as it came before the insurrection. END

PS: the unindicted co-conspirator could also be Tarrio himself to give Stone deniability, however, previous encrypted messenger groups included him but had been deleted after he was arrested ahead of the insurrection.

PPS: it’s important to consider that - even though roger stone is an idiot - he may have insulated himself by having someone who wasn’t at the insurrection run that chat to insulate himself, and that person is the UICC. Been thinking about this all day. Lol.
