So they’ve identified the 11 people who were taking paychecks from the FBI.

My nickel says this is nothing but a smokeshow to hide Rhodes’ involvement as an FBI informant and Rhodes walks.

Outrageous. The democrats are desperate. They are going to unleash hell on ‘us.’ They want us eliminated by any means necessary. They want us dead.

I am still shocked that Trump left office without pardoning everyone involved in Jan 6th

The charges will almost certainly be garbage but the most important thing is to take away the retort of “How come no one has been charged with sedition or insurrection?”

Talking point box checked.

“… Once protesters had breached the Capitol perimeter, prosecutors say, members of the Oath Keepers marched into the Capitol as a team in “stack formation,” a single-file militarytactic.…”
*****************************************************
LOL - “stack formation”! Does this mean that they were among the hundreds who were actually let in by the Capital Police and walked in peacefully, single file.

This is all to take the heat off of Ray Epps, except for most reasonable people this only raises more questions about Epps involvement with January 6th and why is he still a free man.

Now do Ray Epps.

Or did Ray turn on Rhodes when he went in to lie to the Unselect Committee?

Attorney General Merrick Garland promised that prosecutors would charge anyone responsible for the Capitol riot “at any level,” not just those who breached the building.

Next up, anyone who has mentioned it on FR.

Only Rhodes is charged with seditious conspiracy.

Very weak case since nobody showed up armed to the "Armed Insurrection".

And note that Rhodes himself did not enter the Capitol building. I see a pattern building.

Was any member of Congress harmed on Jan.6th? Was any threatened with death? I seem to recall right after Trump won the election in 2016 it was non-stop protests and riots day after day with property damage, death threats against electors, and even a threat to “blow up the White house” by professional slut Madonna, and it wasn’t long after that Kathy Griffin posted a threat to behead Trump. How many of these people were charged with sedition?

Actually this puts MORE heat on Epps since the defense of Epps states he didn't actually go INTO the Capitol building as he was urging others to do. Well, Stewart Rhodes also did NOT go INTO the Capitol Building.

That was my first thought...
Others have been out there with “nobody has been charged with that” so they felt the need.
