Feds investigated Roger Stone ties to Proud Boys as part of possible threat to judge

The threat investigation did not lead to charges. But its existence, now revealed by CNN, sheds new light on how federal prosecutors had already looked into the far-right organization’s ties to someone in former President Donald Trump’s orbit before the siege of the US Capitol in January.
