Oath Keepers leader tried to contact Trump on Jan. 6

Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes attempted to contact former President Trump on Jan. 6 just hours after the group forced their way into the Capitol, pleading that he ask them to continue to interrupt the peaceful transfer of power.

The disclosure comes as a third member of the group struck a plea deal with the Department of Justice, with William Todd Wilson of Newton Grove, N.C., pleading guilty to seditious conspiracy for his role in the riot alongside other members of the far-right militia group.

According to Wilson, Rhodes called an unidentified individual on speakerphone shortly after they left the Capitol asking to speak to Trump.

Yeah...I might have tried to contact Trump that day too.

I wouldn’t have gotten through either.

Probably a lie but, if not, it’s the action of an FBI operative trying to ensnare the President into COMPLICITY.

Hell, I can call an “unnamed person” right now and ask to speak to Trump.

The hyperbolic gyrations of our enemies would be funny if so many people didn’t take them seriously.

Is this the same genus you along with his chapter brought rifles to Virginia and had a “quick reaction force” on stand by only to then use text messaging in the clear without secure comms discussing said weapons and QRF force. First rule in fight Club is you don’t talk about fight Club especially over text messages that fedzilla reads and stores every single one of them all the time everywhere. Or was this the guy who actually brought a concealed handgun on the grounds in DC then gets a picture taken with it in his person as his jacket comes up while climbing over things. The rule from history has always been if you’re going to take a shot at the king you better not miss. The alphabet goons have all the transcripts and recordings thanks to the Patriot act they know who spoke to whom down to the second not that they will ever release that outside of the discovery phase possibly but never to the genpop they will ignore FOIA requests for sure.

Sorry *who not you.

There was one group who brought weapons and then used text messages in the clear it’s no wonder they got pinched that level of stupid burns.

“far-right militia group”

Notice how Antifa - when they dare mention a name - is never characterized even as a “far-left militant group”, much less directly “violent”.

You, I, Rhodes or anyone can call the WH and ask to speak with the President. We will get an operator, but we won't get through. What is the big deal?

But on the other side of the table sits the bug-eyed guy who is rumored to have been fathered by a martian alien! Will he agree to a dna test to finally prove paternal lineage? And what about that blonde rep from that mountain state of Wyoming? Is it true that she is half goat? Could explain her beard but she really should agree to be examined by a veterinarian for positive proof. Goofy? Yes, just as goofy as the socialist thoughts.
