Danish filmmakers gave the House Jan. 6 committee video footage of Roger Stone predicting the prospect of violent clashes and saying then-President Donald Trump could use armed guards to stay in power. wapo.st/3BVUgiG
The documentary was first reported by The Post in March. The committee had intended to show clips during a hearing Wednesday that was postponed due to Hurricane Ian. wapo.st/3funCgt
Director Christoffer Guldbrandsen told The Post that he shared the footage in response to a committee subpoena.
Guldbrandsen followed Stone between 2019 and 2021, joining him in Washington for the “Stop the Steal” rallies ahead of the Jan. 6 insurrection. wapo.st/3SIPE6w

Stone previously claimed to The Post that the Danish footage was “deep fake” material and denied that he endorsed violence on Jan. 6 or at any other time. wapo.st/3funCgt
In a Telegram post this week, he likened his call for Trump to claim victory to advice George W. Bush received from advisers to do the same while the 2000 election result was disputed. wapo.st/3BVUgiG
