didn’t mean it to seem like I was attacking you, I am just so frustrated with the double standard of justice
OK... I get it. No problem.
There does appear to be a lot of details that people here are missing about the Oath Keepers.
The most important being that a number of them made plea deals, and quite literally cooperated with DOJs investigation.
I do not know whether or not any of these folks gave testimony at Rhodes’s trial. I did manage to find some information about one of them—William Todd Wilson.
(Before I get slammed for “Capitol Riot” stuff, keep in mind that I did not write that article or give it a title.)
A document filed with the court (I assume as part of his plea deal, possibly shown to the grand jury to obtain an indictment against Rhodes and others) shows some pretty damaging stuff.

Of course, under duress, anyone could be convinced to agree to anything. But if this document was made available to the Rhodes trial jury, Rhodes was screwed—unless Wilson’s credibility and/or motives could be put into question.
(And, as I was trying to point out in my earlier post, if the if DOJ or FBI had the information in this document on January 5, they could have made arrests on January 5—before any activity took place at the Capitol building. The conspiracy is the crime in this instance—not the crime itself.)
