Who else believes that it’s the lawmakers and former guy who instigated the 1-6 attempted coup who should be the ones getting punished first? Conspiracy to overthrow the government IS A CRIME!!!. But will we see the traitors get more than a tap on the wrist? Unlikely…
Here’s how Alex Jones gave the Oath Keepers a platform to spread violent extremism
“Jones, who has built a staggering online following around his Infowars empire, has given Rhodes a platform to reach a wider audience — from the day Rhodes plugged the Oath Keepers’ first public meeting to the weeks surrounding the invasion of the US Capitol,” reported Zachary Cohen and Curt Devine. “At the same time, Rhodes’ Oath Keepers protected Jones at multiple ‘Stop the Steal’ rallies. The heady mix of access and influence came to a boil on January 6, 2021, with the Oath Keepers tasked with providing a personal security detail for Jones and Stop the Steal organizer Ali Alexander before the pro-Trump rally culminated with the deadly riot at the Capitol.”
On Infowars, Rhodes pushed violent rhetoric for years.
“In 2012, Rhodes appeared on Jones’ show and drew a comparison to the American Revolution during a conversation about alleged government abuse of power,” said the report.
Rhodes and several other Oath Keepers are being charged with seditious conspiracy for their role in the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Jones, meanwhile, is a subject of the House committee investigation into the attacks, and is currently suing the committee to block them from obtaining his phone records.
Conspiracy investigations start small and build, both with persons and charged crimes, to increase the pressure on the higher ups. Now serious charges are starting to be brought up. I’d imagine Donald has tightened up a bit after this.
It would be great if our federal representatives honored their oath to serve the Constitution and We The People instead of putting their party or personal wants first. Do we no longer have an actual federal government that works together for all its people?
I find it interesting they call themselves “oath keepers.” Among their target audience are veterans. If like me you have been issued a DD Form 214 for the purpose of Expired Time in Service, you are excused from any further oath of service. If you’re a cop your first duty is to the oath taken a peace officer of your jurisdiction.
The traitors are starting to fall like dominoes…..of course, the HEAD traitor, one Donald John Trump, hasn’t even been subpoenaed yet, although one of the other main traitors, Steve Bannon, has. (Not that he’s been charged with anything other than contempt of Congress—so far.) Whereas one of the OTHER main traitors, Peter Navarro, is bragging IN PUBLIC about the pre-planned attempt to over-throw our democracy…..
Hee, it’s funny because some of the patrick murphys, those geniuses who consider themselves to be “true conservatives,” but who are actually right-wing populists, with no discernable values, are getting theirs…………………………..RWPs, especially loonsymbolname.
It’s just an arrest, so far, no judgement, no conviction. Right now one can only hope for a judge with conviction enough to convict. I can’t breathe easier until arrests become trials and legal judgement rendered.
I haven’t seen a story on this arrest posted on the Fox Nuts website. I guess it’s not important enough, as opposed to the exhaustive daily coverage of Some Democrat Somewhere Did Something Stupid Today
Somebody is “keeping the oath” by holding people hostage at a Jewish Synagogue in Colleyville, TX. Live coverage on CNN. Don’t bother looking for a news alert on Faux News, not a peep . . .
