Proud Boys heard Trump loud & clear: "The messages show the group repeatedly invoking President Trump’s rhetoric in the weeks leading to the Jan. 6 protest"—WSJ, after review of 1000s of posts on Parler, Telegram & Gab where the extremists rallied ppl to come to DC. #CapitolSiege https://twitter.com/maggieNYT/status/1350892711285551108
"On Parler, where the group’s official account had more than 340,000 followers before the platform went offline last week, Mr. Tarrio said…Proud Boys would be able to put a thousand “BOOTS ON THE GROUND” and "…in record numbers on Jan. 6.”
Flyer: POTUS WANTS YOU IN DC ON 1/06
After Trump tweet to "be there, will be wild" about Jan. 6 rally, the Proud Boys Long Island chapter posted that Trump supporters have been “WAITING FOR THE GREEN LIGHT FROM THE PRESIDENT.”

“Everyone who said ‘Mr. President, just say when?’ He just did."

Proud Boys escalated online activity & appeared emboldened after the Sept. 29 presidential debate. They interpreted Trump's "Stand back and stand by" remark as a call to be ready for "when he can call on us to essentially ‘let loose the dogs of war.’” #CapitolSeige #MAGATerrorism
Proud Boys didn’t believe Trump's belated denunciation of the group was sincere. When he lost the election, they blamed antifa & held rally for Trump in DC. That night he tweeted “Antifa SCUM ran for the hills today.” PB acct shared his tweet, saying “I just got a freedom boner.”
Ahead of a Dec 12 rally, Proud Boys leader posted photos from the White House steps, writing: “Last-minute invitation to an undisclosed location.” WH denied Tarrio met with Trump or invitation by WH, saying it was a public tour.

Roger STONE showed up to help the Proud Boys pressure Marco Rubio to not certify the election. Tarrio led Trump supporters to a rally at Rubio's Miami home. Stone told them to “Keep the faith."

(Trump pardoned Stone's 2016 election crimes so he could help him commit 2020 crimes)
FYI "StopTheSteal" is Roger STONE's baby. He created it in 2016 but didn't need to use it b/c Trump "miraculously" won (w/ Russia's infowar help). Stone & Bannon rolled it out for Trump's 2020 loss, pushing the insane Big Lie that Trump actually won. A gathering storm since Nov. https://twitter.com/PaulaChertok/status/1327695584635981825
Trump took a mafia state's help to get into power. Why not get Nazis' help to keep it?

Roger Stone raised money to transport insurrectionists to Jan 6 StopTheSteal rally. His promo carefully calls it "peaceful" protest as he incites them with the Big Lie https://twitter.com/jimstewartson/status/1344898749932261377?s=20
Several Proud Boys have already been arrested for crimes at the Capitol. Some came to DC from all over the country. Hope FBI is investigating if any of them got money or materiel from Roger Stone’s StopTheSteal website for the Jan 6 insurrection? Stone spec mentions accoutrements
