The phrase, “Stop the Steal” first emanated back to the 2016 election and was attributed, and popularized, by none other than Trump confidant and convicted felon, Roger Stone.

We know that the Stop the Steal movement mobilized people to act and many did so by showing up to ballot counting sites brandishing protest signs and some interfered with the voting counting process, and many harass and threatened elected officials.

A question then arises, is there a connection between the Stop the Steal movement and the insurrectionist attack on the US Capitol on January 6th?
