Trump ally Roger Stone is currently under investigation by the US Capitol Police and FBI for allegedly making comments calling for the assassination of two prominent House Democrats. The investigation was initiated following the release of an audio recording by Mediate, although the authenticity of the recording has not been independently verified.
Roger Stone is a well-known political operative for the Republican Party and a staunch supporter of former President Donald Trump. However, recent reports suggest that he made concerning remarks in the weeks leading up to the 2020 election, discussing the possibility of having two high-profile House Democrats assassinated. The comments allegedly included the statement that 'one of two Democrats, either Representative Eric Swalwell or Representative Jerry Nadler, has to die before the election.'
