In an exclusive video obtained by MSNBC's Ari Melber from Danish filmmaker Christoffer Guldbrandsen for his 2023 documentary A Storm Foretold, we can see Roger Stone working to overturn the 2020 presidential election on November 5th before the election had been called for Joe Biden. This means, and we all know already, that they knew Trump lost the election.

"Although state officials in all 50 states must ultimately certify the results of the voting in their state, the final decision as to who the state legislatures authorize be sent to the electoral college is a decision made solely by the legislature," Stone says to a man who is transcribing it for him in real-time.

"Any legislative body may decide on the basis of overwhelming evidence of fraud to send electors to the Electoral College who accurately reflect the president's legitimate victory in their state, which was illegally denied him through fraud," he continued.

"We must be prepared to lobby our Republican legislatures…by personal contact and by demonstrating the overwhelming will of the people in their state—in each state—that this may need to happen," he added.

Guldbrandsen told The Daily Beast after the clip was aired that Stone is "upset about the publication of the material," but added: "I respect that he has been able to restrain himself from going after me."

Stone taped his crime and then got upset because people found out he promoted overturning a legitimate election. That made me snort-laugh. Stone looks like he not only promoted it, but also he's orchestrating it on film.
