Prosecutors have expanded their investigation to examine the role that Jacob Engels & Roger Stone played in Florida’s 2018 protests.

@TheJusticeDept is examining whether the tactics used then served as a model for Jan 6.

🚨 THEY MAY WANT TO SEE MY ADDITIONS TO THIS ONE 😉👇

Different prosecutors connected to the Jan 6 investigation have also been asking questions about efforts by Roger Stone to stave off a recount in the 2018 Senate race in Florida.

A lawyer for Joel Greenberg declined re: specifics of what Joel told authorities about 2018.

Scheller said, “A significant aspect of Mr. Greenberg’s cooperation has been his assistance in matters involving efforts to subvert the democratic process.”

In weeks after the 2020 election, Matt Gaetz took part in Trump’s attempts to challenge the certification of the vote count.

Prosecutors want to know if Jacob Engels has ties to cryptocurrency promoter, Eryka Gemma, who gave Enrique Tarrio the 1776 Returns plan, laying out a details to surveil & storm buildings & Capitol.

*Gemma was in biz w/Greenberg’s contractor Samuel Armes.

Roger Stone wrote that he had no role in the Florida protests.

He has also denied that he played any role in the chaos that erupted at the Capitol on Jan 6.

Roger Stone might email that he had no part in the 2018 Florida protests, but according to a now deleted video, Jack Posobiec says "Roger is on the ground in Broward County."

Says he was just on the phone w/Roger re: they warned Rick Scott to get rid of Brenda Snipes.

During the recount, Scott accused her of years of incompetence & asked FDLE to investigate “rampant fraud.” Scott never offered any proof.

In 2016, Roger Stone falsely claimed that Snipes secretly met w/Hillary Clinton. He promised pics, then recanted. sun-sentinel.com/news/politics/…

Trump & Marco Rubio suggested on social media that Democrats were trying to steal the election.

Jacob Engels promoted an event in Broward County, writing on Twitter that he was headed there “to handle this situation” & was going to “STOP THE STEAL.”

8 Nov 2018 Engels tweeted:

"FLDE: March on Broward County Sup of Elections & Arrest Brenda Snipes. Detain entire rotten staff. Counting must be halted/ ballots sequestered until contiguous livefeed/ 3rd party count #StopTheSteal."

Jacob Engels also wrote about Brenda Snipes in his pay-to-play blog post. He wrote glowing praise for DeSantis's pick to take over, Mike Ertel.

Ertel quickly resigned after his blackface pics surfaced.

Mike Ertel was a groomsman in Joel Greenberg’s wedding. And received unaccounted for payments, along with his wife, from the Seminole County Tax office.

On Nov 9, a group of angry protesters, incl the Proud Boys, descended on the Broward County elections office, protesting the recount.

The event drew support from several far-right activists in Florida linked to Mr. Stone — like Ali Alexander & Joe Biggs.

"Roger Stone is currently in intelligence collection mode. Roger is in charge of the Stop the Steal Task Force."

"Ali [Alexander] is BOG. He's probably going to be the Ground Commander there in Broward. Plugging into network there."

"There is a dark energy coming for Florida."

Prosecutors want to know if a written plan existed for “Brooks Brother 2.0” in FL, the same way “1776 Returns” described a plan for occupying 6 House & Senate office buildings & SCOTUS on Jan 6.

5 parts — infiltrate, execution, distract, occupy & sit-in.

"It's up to the New-Right."

"We need an Army of Patriots there."

"Jack Posobiec. Jack Posobiec. You all are going to know my name by the end of my career."

"Get to Broward. Protest! STOP THE STEAL. STOP THE STEAL. #STOPTHESTEAL get it done. "

Here's Ali Alexander after 2018 Stop the Steal.

"People are saying 'Ali, you & your team', Johnathan, Daniel, Sophia, Laura Loomer, Project Veritas, Roger Stone's sunlight, Jack [Posobiec] & Mike [Cernovich] amplifying. If you were part of the hashtag, you just made history."

"Rick Scott beat Bill Nelson by a margin of 12k, now 10k, so thats 2k reduced."

"What they were doing in Broward County, I believe, they were producing votes close to the ratio - for both Rs & Ds - but more for Ds so Bill Nelson could win by a few hundred or few thousand votes."

"What we did is we provided public pressure & we said we're not going away. The protesters of Broward County who stood there deserve our praise & thanks."

"They stopped cheating once we descended on them."

"That's why we went down there. We literally just saved the country."

Found a few tweets using Stop the Steal Florida. Including this one which attached a now removed Tea Party [.]org article regarding Ali Alexander & Pam Bondi.
*I found the archive, see next tweet 👇

(I'm noting the followers b/c of their consistent involvement, incl in Jan 6.)

Pam Bondi sent letters highlighting “irregularities” at Palm Beach & Broward County polling sites.

Saying she's “deeply troubled” by his FDLE not pursuing investigation in the conduct of elections supervisors Brenda Snipes & Susan Bucher.

"It's probably happening everywhere. The unions are off-site filling out provisional ballots. Even while I was there."

"Thank God for the clusterfuck that is Florida."

"So without public attention, w/o tweets, w/o news, protests, donors..."

"Do you even math bro"

"So the Republic is probably dead. Elections aren't real. Dems are cheating & Reps don't care."

"If anybody asks if you fought for the Republic, point to your tweets w/#StopTheSteal or donations to stopthestealflorida[.]org."

"You did help stop the theft of a US Senate seat."

Daniel Bostic | Stop the Steal Organizer at the 14 November 2020 "March for Trump" in D.C.

Bostic even decided to tell a little story about the time he & Ali Alexander, along w/Laura Loomer "descended on Broward County w/an entire Army of Patriots".

Oh, and Lou Dobbs of course was all over the 2018 Stop the Steal bullshit - just like he was for the January 6 Insurrection.

13 Nov 2018, Dobbs tweeted "Drain the Swamp" criticizing Palm Beach & Broward County
