Video emerges showing Roger Stone flanked by right-wing militia group ahead of Capitol insurrection

A video has emerged showing former Trump confidant Roger Stone flanked by members of the right-wing militia group "Oath Keepers" on the morning of Jan. 6, 2021, ABC News reports.

Just hours later, a violent mob of Trump supporters -- including members of the Oath Keepers -- stormed the U.S. Capitol building.

In the video, Stone can be seen taking pictures and mingling with supporters outside a D.C. hotel as members of the group gather around him.

"So, hopefully we have this today, right?" one supporter asks Stone, possibly referring to conspiratorial hopes that the 2020 election results would be overturned.

"We shall see," Stone replied.

Speaking to ABC News, Stone said he had "no advance knowledge of the riot at the Capitol."

"I could not even tell you the names of those who volunteered to provide security for me, required because of the many threats against me and my family," he added.
