WASHINGTON — A federal jury in Washington found Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes guilty of seditious conspiracy in connection with the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Rhodes was on trial alongside Jessica Watkins, Kelly Meggs, Kenneth Harrelson and Thomas Caldwell; Caldwell was the only one of the five who was not detained while awaiting trial. The jury is reading its verdict in the case.
All five defendants face felony counts of seditious conspiracy, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of an official proceeding and aiding and abetting, and conspiracy to prevent an officer from discharging their duties. Watkins also faced a count of civil disorder and aiding and abetting because, as she admitted on the stand, she helped push against officers inside the Capitol.

A decade ago I tried to persuade a group of us to purchase a really large island and restart America. I was in.
Nobody thought it would get this bad. Look at us now. China has better health stats and a longer lifespan. The border is pretty much a nonentity and will be over run in Dec.
Seattle, Portland, San Fran stores being driven out of business by crime that is no longer crime. How long before other cities join them?
Time to go watch those Mad Max movies I skipped out on at the time.
Meanwhile we have over-weaponized the dollar and sanctioned everyone right and left - now emerging countries are banding together to attack the dollar. Petrodollar is already a thing of the past. Russia is doing great. Look at Europe about to freeze and Germany shutting down industry. Look at our economy and food prices.
Our infrastructure is failing. Homeless are cities of their own now, predictive of the feudal Society we are heading toward.
If you aren’t stocking food and ammo, and if you live in a city, its time to think about what the next five yrs will bring.
You can’t pardon people who weren’t even charged or arrested yet.
Nixon was never tried. Pardon is a plenary power.
We know who the seditious bastards are that sold us down the River.
They didn’t have cash to offer him.
I believe so also.
And the 01/06 people have been demonized beyond belief.
Makes you wonder why the Capitol police escort hasn’t been used as a defense.
Wasn’t she ANTIFA? I heard it was ANTIFA that was leading people into and around the Capitol. All spring and summer we stated ANTIFA should be shot on site when rioting.
A Presidential pardon can be given in general terms, like Biden’s pardon to cannabis users: “on or before the date of this proclamation, regardless of whether they have been charged with or prosecuted for this offense on or before the date of this proclamation ...”
Nixon was not yet convicted of anything, but was pardoned.
I would not trust China’s health stats or life expectancy information.
We are going downhill any way you look at us.

Agreed. Banana republic. Same for Trump.
I read somewhere though that Hillary was fined for her Russian file creation? 100,000?
Does anyone know what sending that cash to Iran was about?
Sorry, that is on a need to know basis for average, common Americans. Maybe you’ll overhear something at a lavish yacht party (as a waiter there) with McConnell and Paul Ryan reminiscing with Michelle Obama and George W. Bush.
If she was, she should be tried for sedition, or whatever
is appropriate for trying to overturn the duly elected
government.
There was a coup in 2020, directly related to what she
pulled off.
Of course they were found guilty in DC.
Is there any group, or individual who has offered these poor Patriots help.
I would like to know about them.
Same. I will look. Good idea.
