Q Mr. Stone, as I think you are aware, it's been publicly reported that you were interacting with members of the Oath Keepers on January 5th and 6th in Washington, D.C., and previously had interacted with members of a group called the Proud Boys on trips to D.C., at least in December 2020.
We would like to ask you about those interactions, as well as other interactions you may have had with additional groups purporting to provide personal or private security details, such as the Three Percenters.
Is it your intention to assert your Fifth Amendment privilege to all the questions we would ask you about your use of personal security details or interactions with members of these groups under the Fifth Amendment?
A Yes, counsel, it is my intention, on the advice of my counsel, to assert my Fifth Amendment rights in response to any such questions, including that one.
Q I'd like to ask you to look at exhibit 5. This is a printout of a post from what is your personal website, stonecoldtruth.com. The title of this post is "Guilt By Association," and it indicates "by Roger Stone."
Stonecoldtruth.com is your website, is it not?
A I decline to answer your questions on the basis of my Fifth Amendment constitutional protections with all due respect.
Q At the bottom of the second page of exhibit 5, if you count up, the third paragraph from the bottom, in the middle of that paragraph, you wrote, "The Oathkeepers came forward to voluntarily provide free security for me as they graciously had done at three previous rallies in Miami and Tampa."
Is that true?
A I decline to respond to your question once again on the basis of my Fifth Amendment right to do so under the U.S. Constitution.
