Sloppy Sedition Charge for January 6ers Unlikely to Stick

Democrats, the media, the January 6 Committee and even some federal judges are rejoicing because Attorney General Merrick Garland has finally delivered the goods. Garland has charged 11 members of the Oath Keepers with “seditious conspiracy.” Never mind the fact that the indictment is as flimsy as a counterfeit Arizona ballot. The Democrats are thrilled that they can finally claim with a straight face that someone has been charged with sedition. They’re not going to be happy when these sedition charges are laughed out of court.

The big “catch” in this indictment is Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes. The other ten members of Oath Keepers had all been previously indicted on the usual list of milquetoast charges: Trespassing, briefly interrupting a meeting of the US Senate, parading in the Capitol Building, etc. The fact that Rhodes had not been indicted prior to this has led many to speculate that he is a fed like that Ray Epps guy.

Maybe. Maybe not. Rhodes didn’t carry a gun that day, never punched any cops, didn’t enter the Capitol building, didn’t hurt anyone, didn’t break anything and used the correct amount of change in the parking meter. So, who knows? Maybe the feds knew that it would look like BS if they tried to charge Rhodes with anything, given his model citizen behavior during the protest.

Anyway, this is it. This is the feds’ big white supremacist militia group that tried to overthrow our democracy on January 6. The Oath Keepers, led by Stewart Rhodes, were so intent on waging war against the federal government that they left all of their guns at their hotel rooms across the Potomac in Virginia, so that they would not get in trouble for violating Washington, DC’s draconian gun laws.

 

The total number of Oath Keepers indicted because of January 6 is now 20. Three of them, including Rhodes, never went inside the building. One group of the remaining 17 Oath Keepers went into the building for about 25 minutes and left after being pepper sprayed by police. A second group entered the building through a different door, encountered a group of police, and turned around and walked back out.

The Department of Justice hilariously asserts that Rhodes and the Oath Keepers coordinated their plans to “attack” the Capitol using an encrypted messaging app. In one of the highly sensitive conversations listed in the indictment, the DOJ says they discussed whether they should coordinate their outfits by wearing khakis or blue jeans.

On the one hand, it doesn’t look like the encrypted messaging app that they used was very encrypted, since the feds have all their communications. And I’ll bet they’re kicking themselves that they didn’t opt to wear the blue jeans, since they are all now facing 20 years in prison for “seditious conspiracy.”

Here’s another big inconsistency in this farce. The Department of Justice is now saying that Stewart Rhodes is so dangerous that he should not be allowed out of jail until after his trial, which probably won’t take place until 2023 now. “Lock him up in solitary confinement like the rest of the insurrectionists!” If Stewart Rhodes is really such a great threat to our democracy, then why did they wait more than a year to charge him with “seditious conspiracy?” Was he less dangerous for the past 12 months than he is now? I’m confused.

Another Oath Keeper, Edward Vallejo, stayed at the hotel in Virginia where the rest of the group left their firearms behind. Vallejo was supposedly “coordinating quick reaction forces” among the Oath Keepers that day and has been arrested as part of the “conspiracy.” And once again – the Oath Keepers never brought a single firearm to DC that day, whether as part of a “quick reaction force” or otherwise.

In Vallejo’s charging documents, the DOJ says that he participated “in a plot to oppose by force the execution of the laws governing the transfer of presidential power in the United States.”

Uh… that’s not a crime, believe it or not. There is not a single statute on the books that says it’s illegal to oppose the transfer of presidential power in the US – even if you oppose it by force. People oppose the transfer of power every time it happens. Go back and look at the violence, looting and arson that took place during Donald Trump’s inauguration. It was far worse than anything that happened on January 6.

And I don’t normally joke about the January 6ers the way I have in discussing the Oath Keepers here. But the charges against them are so flimsy that they will likely be laughed out of court or dismissed with prejudice.

  2. Real answer! After all of Biden’s failures, the democrats needed a distraction with the “midterms” coming up so without any hesitation jumped on something they thought might stick! A ”knee-jerk” reaction they figured would stir up the crowds worried about “Militias”
    So they fabricated stories to imprison “Proud boys” who didn’t do anything wrong except Piss Off the democrats, but it isn’t likely those fake charges will stick!

    1. BUT in the real world, the Dems have denied these people their freedom kept them locked up for over a year in a prison I’m told that needs to be condemned and in isolation and treated worse than the people who are terrorists. That is the true crime. They have lost their jobs no telling if they have lost relatives due to this. There were some who lost their lives(1 woman) just because she walked through a door they were invited into by police another beaten to death by police outside in the tunnel AFTER she was hit outside the tunnel and dragged back in

      1. AS PEOPLE WERE WALKING TO THE CAPITAL THERE WAS A TALL HEAVY PERSON RED HAT, NOT A TRUMP HAT, TELLING PEOPLE YOU MUST GO INTO THE CAPITAL BUILDING, THE PEOPLE CALLED OUT FEDS, FEDS, FEDS
        At the Capital protesters were standing still, behind the 3 foot high bicycle racks used as barricades,
        CONGRESSIONAL POLICE WERE THE ONES THAT STARTED THE AGGRESSION BY FIRING TEAR GAS AND FLASH BANGS INTO A CROWD OF HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE STANDING BEHIND THE 3 FT BICYCLE RACKS USED AS BARRIERS, NOTE THAT SHOOTING OF TEAR GAS AND FLASH BANGS WERE REMOVED FROM THE FBI VIDEOS,
        the 3 food barrier that were bike racks people not doing anything except peacefully protesting the 2020 election and all the States than blocked any questions regarding how 3-5 States had huge vote totals long after polls closed,
        Since the Census was also 2020 why would many precincts average over 90% of registered voters, some were over 125% of registered voters
        Now the National Guard, was turned down by none other than Nancy Pelosi,
        The National Guard would have been a neutral group instead of untrained congressional police, look at riots in 2020, did the National Guard fire on protesters or rioters that threw frozen water bottles, or used lasers to blind National Guard, No and No again.
        The rioters who burned stores, police stations, police cars, and other cars and innocent people beaten or shot just because the rioters felt like it!, but a Policeman or woman that stops someone destroying property and stealing items, under arrest, they like the Wendy’s were one guy fell asleep in a Wendy,s Drive Thu line, tested positive for over the alcohol limit was being arrested to get a drunk off the streets, would have walked out after sleeping it off, with a first time DUI, But he fought and grabbed the one officers Pfizer and ran and fired back only thing they saw was a muzzle flash, returned fired, police were arrested, this is backwards, and this happened many times, Everything is backwards now, we have no laws, in cities, or in Politics, Time for Politicians with insider trading information and make hundreds of millions of dollars in insider trading every year! should be arrested and removed from office and loose balance of income, should be in jail, Politicians run for office win or lose on taxpayer donations elect only 30% of those Politicians, running for office. Those that win get a big salary for life, salary for life after one term, free expenses, free healthcare for life, a special 503(b) pension plan once Elected most work 4 days a week, 8 months a year,

        Now those few protesters, that were arrested, they were left go with not even a record of them destroying private property, and today mobs of people smash and grab items from stores but in not over $950.00 nothing happens, but who was checking total of things stolen, and damages to stores, they answer to no one.

        This will end badly, when citizens defend themselves!

    2. That’s probably why the Dems are saying Rhodes et al need to be held AT LEAST until 2023, no bail, in solitary confinement, to keep their scenario fraud going at least through 2022 elections, if not pushing it to 2024 election.

  3. When Americans had enough then do something about it! Everyone in BIDEN administration should be EXECUTED BY FIRING SQUAD! These are the same people who did us wrong during Obama terms! No charge against ANTIFA AND BLM who did try to burn down the capital during Trump term. Set an catholic church on fire! These democrats are protecting these youth because they want SOCIALISM rule that make them SLAVE !

    1. AGREE 100%. THESE SHITBAG TRAITORS ARE DESTROYING AMERICA AND NO ONE HAS THE BALLS TO DO ANYTHING. DEMOCRAPS AND RINOS SHOULD BE PUT UP AGAINST THE WALL AND SHOT< ALONG WITH ANTIFA AND BLM SHITBAGS. LETS GO BRANDON

  4. FBI, CIA, DOJ SECRET SERVICE and now THE SUPREME COURT; Hypocritical Liar’s
    AMERICA is truly the laughing stock of the WORLD. “BULL SHIT CHARGES”
    UK, stopped paying Hunter, so now BIDEN has turned his back on UK, just like BIDEN, HARRIS, BLINKEN, MAYORKAS “HAVE TURNED THEIR BACKS ON AMERICA” using AMERICAN’S TAX DOLLARS to fund these ILLEGALS
    RUSSIA, CHINA paying Biden, Kerry, Pelsoi, Schumer, Schiff ! TREASON
    YET our Senators/Congress Look the other Way!!!! ALL YOU NEED TO GROW A PAIR, STOP RUNNING YOUR MOUTHS AND INVOKE THE 25TH AMENDMENT “DO ANY OF YOU HAVE “CHILDREN or GRAND CHILDREN” ? IS ALLOWING AMERICA TO BE DESTROYED “REALLY” OKAY !!!!!!
    AMERICA DOES NOT HAVE UNTIL MIDTERMS “WE NEED ACTION NOW”
    Why ask for comments, where do they go? is there anyone reading these that really gives a shit?????

    1. Hi to Pam,I like reading these comments, as agree with them. What do you suggest readers do to stand up to Pelosi (queen of corruption/lying) and the others you pointed out?
      There are probably many of us that want to stop this blatant display of “Hate America”, aside from donating here, donating there,?
      I’m listening ?

    2. WOW1 Your awesome PAM. Lets nuke the WH! Or go kill every Libtart you Know or see Yaaaaa thats what you should do. Want my ar and 100 boxs of shells?

  5. This Administration had to charge them with something, you can’t just hold someone in jail/prison without being charged with a crime. This entire 1/6 is a shame, just like the “fake dossier” created by Hillary Clinton to frame candidate/president Trump. The “Dossier” failed and this, so called, “insurrection” will also fail!

  6. Our RIGHTS are being CHALLENGED, on incident to one person at a time, to SEE what they can “get away with”. These DOJ Perps need to be FIRED and CHARGED with SEDITION and TREASON as per the U.S. Constitution. And, they need to be SUED into POVERTY. This IS NOT the U.S.S.R. with Amerika spelled with a “k”. This is EXACTLY what Josef Stalin would do . . . “find a man and we’ll find the crime” – you’re GUILTY till proven INNOCENT, which goes against the U.S. Constitution. One Enlightened And WARY Patriot. Team Trump And His Allies 2020 – MAGA (WE’RE NOT going away!).

  7. Since peaceful protestors are now being charged with sedition, this opens the door to charge EVERY SINGLE BLM ANARCHIST with sedition. Sacrifice a few, so the many will receive justice. Only in the new socialist America can this abuse of power be construed as patriotic.
    Make all politicians who support BLM and any socialist ideology face the consequences of sedition and treason.

  8. Because Biden is doing so bad he needed a diversion and Garland gave him one with made up charges that won’t stick in court . In other words they lied and brought fake charges. They
    will pay for this when the elections blow their pants out of office and into jail.

  9. The only people who have committed a crime are the D-rats who are determined to destroy anyone who doesn’t think they way they do.

  10. black lives DONT matter, and the antifags are the street army of the demon rat party. why do you think the “rioting” suddenly stopped after bribem was SELECTED? they weren’t needed any more. they will never prosecute them, as they were PAID to cause Americans to intently watch them, while the real action of stealing the election was going on. just a diversion. and we fell for it. well, not this time. the black lives DONT matter then turned to ballot harvesting, ballot box stuffing, running the polls, and finally COUNTING THE VOTES. we were had, folks. why do you think the California whore made a commercial asking for donations to pay their bail??????? why did she say they should keep on burning, looting and killing??????? just another smoke screen. now, we are at the mercy of Obama AGAIN. pissaki said as much on a talk show. said she was so proud to work for Obam-biden, watch the clip. it is out there. I guess it doesn’t take much for a vapid moron like her to get excited. wow.

  11. NONE OF THESE PEOPLE SHOULD BE CHARGED! PELOSI IS RESPONSIBLE FOR NOT GETTING THE 10,000 NATIONAL GUARDS TO THE WH! ALSO FOR ALL THE PEOPLE SHE PAID TO DRESS AS TRUMP SUPPORTERS! THE COPS DID NOT DO THEIR JOBS! THEY HAD TO OPEN THE DOORS TO LET THE PUBLIC IN! ALL THIS BS NEEDS TO BE DROPPED AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP! CHARGE THE GUILTY PARTY (PELOSI) !

    1. Agree. It was a Dem leadership set up. Pelosi didn’t want any Nt’l Guard that day; would have upset her plans. Pelosi, AOC, Schumer, Schiff, Gen. Milley, Soros, Biden, Obama, some Cap police, FBI, etc., planning this to prevent true President from retaining office by covering up their fraud and try to keep Trump from ever running again plus harm, even destroy, his supporters and other Republicans and Independents.
      These Dem leaders, including the top of the heap, need to be investigated, charged and convicted. Treason. Max penalty upon conviction.

      1. Hey Vic That will never happen You forgot Democraps are above the law.They get away with every fucking thing they do .In one hand Dream of democraps getting charged with anything and shit in the other.SEE?

  12. Not talking about opinions. We all got em and you know what they say about that! But the Truth n the facts (not that socialist propaganda on the worthless and dangerous MSM) clearly indicate by the “Rule of Law” plainly outlined in our Constitution, that Biden and his administration frequently violate it to push their evil n twisted agenda on the American People! The compromised and corrupted DOJ violated those individuals Constitutional Liberties by using the media and informants to locate and arrest several of the individuals. Denied them Due process of law by denying them the right of a speedy trial and further more they were abused physically n mentally in jail, which amounted more to Gitmo than jail. The real insurrection, sedation and Treason is being committed by the Socialist swamp politicians in the District of Corruption. This has been going on for awhile now. Truth be known is the “Oath Keepers” are not the real enemy of “We the People”. They reside in Congress and the head Puppet is living at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. That wasn’t a F**king Insurrection by its real definition. If they do not stop Tyranizing U S. Citizens on a regular basis, they are eventually going to find out what Revolution is all about. The enemy shouldn’t be Americans to one another like a Civil War. But rather the real danger to Americans Freedoms, Our own government. Not all of them by any means. I would say about 2/3’s of our politicians is a more than conservative estimate. Our forefathers would have already revolted. If your armed, stay that way and be contingently prepared. American citizens are the last line of defense against a rouge abusive government. If we are not prepared to defend and preserve what we love n cherish, it can and will be eventually stripped from U.S. Freedom has never been free to procure and maintain. That’s exactly one reason our wise forefathers wrote in the 2nd Amendment to our “Bill of Rights”. And pay close attention to the last part- ” To Defend against all enemies, Foriegn and Domestic” Reminds me of a quote from Alexander Hamilton- “A NATION WHICH CAN PREFER DISGRACE TO DANGER IS PREPED FOR A MASTER, AND DESERVES ONE” Defending our Republic and Rights doesn’t make one a innserectionist, guilty of Sedition nor being Treasonous. It makes one a Patriot and a duty. God Bless America….Semper Fi

  13. Let’s compare how barak/biden catered to top islamic terrorists and turned gizmo into an island resort equipped with whatever the terrorists requested. Americans under a barak/biden administration that tresspass at the capitol doing exactly what the constitution allows them to do get solitary confinement for months going on a year with zero rights,no healthcare etc…
    Could you have imagined merrick garland on the supreme court? It would be like having stacey abrams on the bench.

  14. THE JAN 6TH COMMITTEES ACTIONS ARE A TOTAL FAKE FARCE IN ACTION TO THEIR UNLAWFUL CREATIVE INJUSTICE ( NOT COVER IN THE REAL CONSTITUTION LAWS) OF THE INNOCENT WHILE THE REAL CRIMINAL CULPRITS RUN FREE AS PLANNED BY THE SOCIALIST DEMOCRAT PARTY TO WHOM STOLE AND 2020 ELECTION AND PUT A FAKE HUMAN IN THE OVAL OFFICE. WITH A SADISTIC #IT#H AN UNCONSTITUTIONAL/ RACIST PREJUDICE DRUG AND ALCOHOL ADDICT AS SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE,IF THE REAL TRUTH BE KNOWN SHE WAS BEHIND THE WHOLE INSURRECTION AND WE ARE SEEING THE COVERUP FALLOUT TODAY. DID PELOSI AND HER ASSOCIATES PLAN AND EXECUTE THE INSURRECTION TO BLAME TRUMP???? NO PERSONAL INTENT. JUST LOOKING FOR THE REAL TRUTH OVER THE LIES THAT BIDEN, PELOSI, NADLER, SCHIFF AND HER LAP DOG SCHUMER ARE OUTCASTING “TO WE THE TRUE AMERICAN PEOPLE” WE ARE A NATION OF ONE GOD, ONE COUNTRY, ONE CONSTITUTION AND ONE FLAG. WE DON’T RUN WITH TREASONOUS TYRANNY WE GO AFTER IT. MAY THE AGGRESSORS BE HELD FULLY ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR PARTICIPATION IN CHOREOGRAPHING THE INSURRECTION AND BLAMING IT ON THE PEACEFUL REPUBLICAN PROTESTORS. TRUMP IS THE ONE TRUE 202 ELECTED PRESIDENT. WHEN YOU STEAL FROM BADGER YOU MUST BE WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE COMING BACK. FROM A VIETNAM VETERAN U.S. ARMY RET’D PROUD AMERICAN PATRIOT.

  15. Agree with all posts. This farce called “ American government” needs to be disbanded, keep the true patriots who are in office and get rid of the scum, Piglosi, Schumer, schiff, Biden, Obama, the Clinton’s and all who follow them! Put REAL Americans in office!

  16. THERE IS A LOT OF TRUTH BEING PUT FORTH IN THE REPLY’S I’VE READ ABOVE CARRING FACT NOT BEEN PUT FORTH BY THE MEDIA IN THE PAST 12 PLUS MONTHS SINCE JANUARY 6, 2021. I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY TOTALS OF HOW MANY PROTECTOR THAT THAT ENTERED THE CAPITOL BUILDING. I SAW THAT THEIR WAS ESTIMATED TOTAL OUTSIDE AT 9,400 TOTAL PEOPLE ON THE CAPITAL GROUNDES , CHARGES AGAINST LESS THEN 1,000 TO DATE. NOW THE CAPITOL PERSONAL ALLOW ABOUT 300 PROTECTOR INTO BUILDING THROUGH A DOOR FIRST BEFORE THE CROWD RUSTED THE STEPS. THESE PEOPLE WERE SHOWN ON NATIONAL TELEVISION BEING DIRECTED TO INTER AND POINTED WHERE TO GO, THEN IT SHOWED THE SAME PEOPLE WALKING THROUGH A AREA TO DOORS THAT ENTER A SENATOR’S CHAMBER. SOME RETURNED BACK IN THE DIRECTION THEY CAME IN, IF THE PEOPLE WHO STORMED THE STEPS, LOOKED IN AND SAW THESE PEOPLE ALREADY INSIDE AND BEAT ON THE DOOR AND NOBODY WOULD ALLOW THEM TO ENTER STARTED TO BREAK THE GLASS IN WINDOW’S AND THE GLASS IN DOORS, TO ENTER THE CAPITOL
    WHAT ABOUT THE LADY COME ON NATIONAL NEWS AND SAID THAT SHE HAD GIVEN A REPORT TO CAPITOL POLICE THAT SAID THAT HAD INDICATION. THEIR COULD PROBLEM AT THE CAPITAL BUILDING. ON JANUARY 6, 2021, NO ACTION WAS TAKEN. ALSO THEIR WAS PROPOSED TO HAVE NATIONAL GUARD TROOPES ON STAND BY AND THIS WAS NOT FELT UNNECESSARY, THE DC POLICE WERE NOT ON STAND BAY ALSO.THE CAPITOL POLICE WERE NOT AT FULL STRENGTH. THEIR.ARE PEOPLE IN CONGRESS WHO KEEP STATING THAT THEIR WERE FIVE
    (5) DEATHES OCCURED DURING THE RIOT, THIS IS NOT CORRECT, THEIR WAS ONLY ONE (1) DEATH, AND THAT WAS WHEN A CAPITALPOLICE OFFICER SHOT A UNARMED FEMALE. YES THEIR WERE FIVE OFFICER DEATH’S, ONE DEATH THAT A DC OFFICER HAD A HEART ATTACK THAT NIGHT, FOUR (4) OFFICERS LATTER TOOK THEIR ON LIVES.
    THE DEMOCRATES KEEP ON STATING THAT THIS WAS A INSURRECTION, THIS WAS DEBUNKED BY REPORTS FROM THE FBI, DOJ AND TWO OTHER GOVERMENT AGENTCY’S MONTH’S AGO.

  17. The Jan 6th committee and the DOJ have NOTHING to stand on except trespassing charges on any of the arrested or confined Patriots ! Our Government is so screwed up they don’t know whether to crap or go blind ! I for one do not have any trust in any part of our government ! None of the alphabet agencies are worth a damn !
    ” F J B ” he was not elected to anything … he was handed our White House on a Platter of FRAUD ! It was Biden himself that bragged about the FRAUD just a few days before the 2020 Election ! Here are his exact words …
    “We have put together the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.”
    – Joe Biden, October 24, 2020

  18. Everybody on these posts are absolutely right! I’m totally sure we all had a notion this would happen because Trump even warned us to be looking for danger from the left and behave ourselves ! That’s what we did, and look what we got for it! Normal but grieved at what was taken from us, we marched to visit The President for the last time! It was a sad day as I remember, watching it from home wanting to cry! I’m still grieving because we lost everything to that blubbering idiot we have now! Every time we try to prove our election was rigged we get tossed out even when we prove it. Then the press finds out SOMEHOW, and down we go again! Now every second they want our money to support them. Even the senators have not done enough, not in my opinion, to get the job done! I know they are stopped by the opposition but why is Biden still there? He must be out of there so they must do more! I know Pelosi and her gang set this whole thing up! I saw one picture where Pelosi let people in at the side door early into this! There’s way more to this than meets the eye!
