A new documentary shows Roger Stone threatening to support Donald Trump's second impeachment and saying the former president would lose if he ran again.
The long-serving political adviser to Trump said on the phone that he was done with the president. I plan to support impeachment. I don't have anything else to do.
It's time for him to leave. Run again. He says you will get your brain beat in. He wasn't sure who he was talking to on the phone.
On January 13, 2021, Trump was impeached again for inciting the Capitol riot. The Senate trial began in the month after he was acquitted.
During the months when Stone was working behind the scenes to aid Trump's attempt to overturn the 2020 election, the footage was released.
The documentary about that effort will be released later this year.
The footage was from President Joe Biden's Inauguration Day after Stone found out he wouldn't be getting a second presidential pardon.
The president pardoned Stone in December 2020. He had been sentenced to 40 months in prison for multiple felonies, including witness tampering, lying to Congress, and obstructing the House investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia in 2016, but Trump commuted his sentence before it even started.
Stone called Trump's daughter-in-law an "abortionist bitch" and ranted about Trump's son-in-law in a phone call that was released on Friday.
Stone made the call in a car.
Stone admitted that he is not a fan of Kushner or the former first daughter.
Stone was subpoenaed by the House but did not appear at the hearing.
