"In the days leading up to January 6, 2021, according to evidence obtained by the Select Committee, Mr. Navarro also encouraged Mark Meadows (and possibly others) to call Roger Stone to discuss January 6th."
"On January 6th, the day to implement the ‘Green Bay

The portions of the report on Scavino focus on his role as Trump's social media manager—and reportedly his sometime-tweet-ghostwriter.
Scavino also monitored TheDonald [dot] win, an online forum visited by folks who "openly advocated and planned violence" leading up to Jan. 6.

protest in D.C. on January 6th... Be there, will be wild!," the site's users began sharing "specific techniques, tactics, and procedures for the assault on the Capitol," according to the report.
Remember the Jan. 6 defendant known as "zip-tie guy"?
One poster on TheDonald[dot]win wrote that "people
should bring 'handcuffs and zip ties to DC' so they could enact 'citizen’s arrests' of those officials who certified the election’s results."
