Oath Keepers founder and political prisoner Stewart Rhodes was sentenced in May, in Washington, DC after he was found guilty of “insurrection” by a DC kangaroo court.
Far-left Obama-appointed US District Judge Amit Mehta sentenced Rhodes to 18 years in federal prison. This was after Mehta added extra years to his sentence because he believed Rhodes’ actions amounted to terrorism. This was a completely ludicrous accusation based on zero evidence. The soulless judge then lectured Stewart Rhodes following his sentencing on what a danger he was to society before Rhodes was led out of the court in cuffs.
For the record – Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes:
He NEVER went inside the US Capitol on January 6.
He never instructed anyone to go inside the US Capitol.
He was unarmed as were all of his Oath Keeper associates that day.
They left their weapons outside of the city in their hotel rooms.
There was no plan to enter the US Capitol.
The few Oath Keepers who entered the US Capitol assisted police.
There was no scheme to take over the government with their bare hands.
There were no pre-planning meetings on how they were going to take over the Capitol.
The prosecution was a sham.
There was no evidence of an insurrection – at all!
The jury was a pool of DC Communists and unhinged left-wing activists who see themselves as victims.
Obviously, to any honest American, the court appears to be completely corrupt.
Rhodes is currently 57. If this kangaroo court’s conviction stands, Rhodes will be 75 when he is released.
Last week the Biden Department of Justice announced they were appealing the sentences of several prominent J6 defendants including Stewart Rhodes. The DOJ wants more years added to their already harsh sentences.
The J6 defendants include:
Stewart Rhodes
Kelly Meggs
Jessica Watkins
Kenneth Harrelson
Robert Minuta
Joseph Hackett
David Moerschel
Edward Vallejo
The DOJ on Wednesday sent this letter to Stewart Rhodes’ attorneys.
Obviously, the Merrick Garland DOJ wants Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes to die in prison. So they can score political points.
On Monday The Gateway Pundit spoke with Ed Tarpley, an attorney for Stewart Rhodes.
Tarpley told TGP, “It’s a head-scratcher. The sentences were already very, very harsh. This is highly unusual and had to come from high up in the Department of Justice. It’s almost seems like they want to continue to use this as a means of keeping this in the public eye.”
It is clear to this website that the Biden DOJ is using these poor men and woman and destroying their families in order to get President Trump.
The regime does not care about how many lives are ruined in the process.
Emerald Robinson interviewed Sgt. Kenneth Harrelson’s wife about this latest development.
This is how enemies of the state are treated in communist countries.
This IS a communist country.
Only one person should be doing the 18 Years it’s the one who allowed it to happen by refusing the National Gur there.
NANCY PELOSI

When will something change for these folks?
Where are their advocates???????
Amit Mehta scumbag foreigner. /spit
I think Rhodes sort of made himself an enemy of state.
At least since the judge is soulless, he doesn’t have to worry about heaven or hell.
Welcome to Venezuela!!! or Cuba or North Korea...
If you even question the outcome of an election, you are the enemy of the current state and deserve to be locked up until the end of your life.
Our Government is evil.
These bastards are out of control….PERIOD!!! They are feverishly pushing the American people into CW2! . If we don’t take care of the situation, our children will pay for it dearly! We are already leaving behind a country that’s in shambles because we did not take a stand. Remember the Lord said…take that first step of faith and God will do the rest.
Your opinion. And I’m not behind bars. Nor will the leftist totalitarian government place me behind bars unless I commit a criminal act like Rhodes. Your mileage may vary.
They won't come after me because I'm not a Republican. Hail to our deep state!
They won't come after me because I'm gay and not white. Hail Schwab!
I think I'll tour the work camps to make sure they're meeting my quotas.
You signed up for CW2?
Insurrection eh? Convicted of Insurrection? I don’t recall anyone with weapons trying to overthrow the Capitol with weapons and holding people against their will.
The country is now under the rule of fascist dictators who use the full and awesome power of the government to eliminate their enemies.
It’s significant that they didn’t prosecute BLM/antifa rioters and that they allow retail theft under $1,000 per person per day.
Most Americans have no clue of what happened since March 2020 and still think this is the land of liberty in which freedoms are guaranteed by the Constitution and bla bla bla.
It takes a bit of mental effort to connect the dots.
Because they are useful idiots who pose no real threat to the establishment.
J6 scared the hell out of them. While it was nothing more than a peaceful protest with a few of the usual troublemakers in a crowd of that size, along with feds egging them on to create a "Reichstag Fire" moment, that many people coming to Washington to protest the stolen election rattled their cages.
Their response since then has been to utterly destroy so many of the people that were there that day, that nobody ever dares such a protest again.
Democrats=Chinese Communists
January 6th=Tiananmen Square
Sorry, even though I am not a Trump fan, this administrations efforts to silence the Republicans has become worse than Tiananmen Square.
