The seditious conspiracy charges brought by the Justice Department on Thursday against the leader of the Oath Keepers and other members of the right-wing group signal the government is prepared to take on an ambitious fight to show that they joined the Jan. 6, 2021, attack as part of a coordinated effort to deny President Biden the White House.

The indictment contains the first sedition charges that have been brought following the riot and mark a significant escalation in prosecutors’ efforts by drawing a connection between the physical acts of mayhem that day and the broader effort by former President Trump’s supporters to obstruct Biden from taking office.

The arrest of Stewart Rhodes, the founder of the far-right militia group, followed criticism that the Justice Department, despite filing hundreds of charges, was failing to go after major actors behind the attack.

The criminal statute for seditious conspiracy covers plots to overthrow or attack the government or use force to prevent the execution of U.S. laws. The Justice Department’s case against the leaders of the Oath Keepers alleges that they conspired “to oppose by force the execution of the laws governing the transfer of presidential power.”

“It’s ​​significant because they are so rarely used, and that reflects the gravity of the charges and the difficulties of proving it in court,” said Bruce Hoffman, a counterterrorism and homeland security expert with the Council on Foreign Relations.

The charges could help combat a narrative from some Republican lawmakers, he said, that the attack was carried out as people were swept up in moment, falling short of an act of terrorism.

  • Because of Biden’s steal, we now have:

    1. Border crisis! Because of Biden, we are being swamped with millions of illegals who mostly hate us, are unskilled and uneducated. They are bringing crime and disease.
    2. Inflation! June of 2020, under Trump, I paid 1.49 for gas, and it was going down, now it’s 3.20. You can expect over 7.00 gas in the next year. Remember, the economy always follows energy or lack of it. This was 100% because of Trump versus Biden.
    3. Crime! Because of Biden and his handlers, we no longer have law and order… period, especially in the Democratic run states.
    4. Energy crisis! In one day of the Biden regime, we went from 100% energy independent under Trump, to being under the control of the oil cartels again.
    5. Worker shortage! We are now under the control of a man made pandemic which btw, the Democrats helped China develop. The Biden administration demands a vaccine mandate while refusing to give out the needed therapeutics OR recognize natural immunity. That in itself proves they won’t stop this scam on our country. They now demand children five years and over to get the vaccines. Why? The reason is,  they are forcing the children to stay home which forces the parents to stay home, simple!
    6. Supply chain crisis! This is the final step in the destruction of our country, we are there now!
    7. Total loss of respect in NATO! He sold out our country and our allies in Afghanistan not to mention rearming our sworn enemies.
    8. He is well on his way to starting two wars within his first six weeks while losing the respect of the allies that trump built. BTW, Trump was the first President in fifty years that didn’t start a war in his first four year term of office and he absolutely stopped ISIS in his last 18 month of Office.

       

       If you voted Biden, you are responsible for this disaster. You should have seen this coming, you should gave read the history of Venezuela because we are there now!

      Your children need to know how you voted. They might forgive you in time, I never will!  Because of your individual vote, our county is done!

    BLACK PANTHERS

    BLM.

    KKK.

    NEO-NAZI PARTY.

    FEMINIST ACTIVISTS

    WHITE SUPREMACIST.

    THE COMMUNIST PARTY.

    THE SOCIALIST PARTY.

    ORGANIZED GANGS LIKE MS13.

       These are alll backed by the left, and our DOJ is worried about the Oath Keepers that are dedicated to preserving our country and our way of life. Is there any doubt which side our own Government is on! 

    • Yup!

      this guy didn't even go into the capitol but he was going to take over the government. 
      they are saying he tried to get weapons across the river in boats (he was a navy guy), because it would have been illegal to drive them into DC. Hahahahaha as if he really wanted to do what they accuse him of, he would have cared if getting guns into DC was legal, and somehow floating them over would have made them legal. Do you see the ridiculousness of it? They are making it up as they go, piling on thinking the people don't know any better, they believe anything. It took them a year to come up with this!

      the oath keepers have never done anything aggressive as far as I know........nothing even close to what those on your list have done, but most of them served this country!

    • There is NO DOUBT in this OK'S mind !

  • Those republicans who support the idea of a sedition, insurrection in any way at all are cowards! They are afraid it will come back to hunt them, so they make sure no one thinks they supported anything on 1/6. Spineless bastards, when it's time to stand tall they splitter like snakes!

    • You're a fool, or at least ignorant. It's not the Republicans doing this, it's the Social Democrats. BTW, I don't like either party. I'm an independent, never have voted Party!

    • In fact Cruze  went as far as to call the people who went into the capitol terrorists

    • I am no fool, nor ignorant, perhaps you assuming such makes you one! 
      There are republicans who call this an insurrection, Cruz is one, and several others are too. 

  • I still would like to know how they intend to tie Trump to any of this? 
    they have nothing on the OK leader either...... it they'll invent something.

  • As Garland family members continue to profit from contracts with schools all over the Republic with DEI/SEL/CRT materials?

    IS THIS NOT A SERIOUS CONFLICT OF INTEREST
