February 16, 20223 yr Top Oath Keeper reveals a key secret of Jan. 6 | Will Bunch Newsletter https://www.inquirer.com/columnists/attytood/january-6-stewart-rhodes-sedition-oath-keepers-20220215.html Quote In a 41-page filing seeking the pre-trial release of Rhodes, who was indicted on the serious charge of seditious conspiracy and taken into custody last month, his lawyers argue that Rhodes and his fellow Oath Keepers from as far away as Florida and Texas came to the D.C. area ahead of January 6 with rifles and suitcases full of ammunition for two reasons — neither of which involved storming the Capitol and preventing the certification. Instead, Rhodes’ attorneys argue, the Oath Keepers, many of whom are former military or ex-cops, were there to protect pro-Trump allies like his long-time adviser Roger Stone from expected clashes that week with leftists, or the so-called "antifa,” that never actually materialized. More importantly, they claim the bulk of Rhodes’ armed men, calling themselves a "Quick Response Force,” or QRF, stayed outside of the capital district and waited at staging areas like a Comfort Inn in Arlington, Va. They say they only planned to enter the fray on Capitol Hill if Trump invoked the Insurrection Act, which they fully expected to happen. The lawyers said the QRFs finally gave up waiting for the presidential command and went to dinner at a nearby Olive Garden. "They were not there to storm the Capitol, to stop the certification, to takeover the government,” the brief argues. "They were waiting for President Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act. He did not, so Rhodes and the others did nothing.” Oh. Sounds all above board. Nothing shady about this.

Pence asserted he had no unilateral authority to stop the electoral vote count. This is the passage from the memo, taking place right after the Jan. 6 riot (Plaintiff is John Eastman, Trump's lawyer): Quote Later that evening, Plaintiff made a final plea to the Vice President’s lawyer: "I implore you to consider one more relatively minor violation [of the Electoral Count Act] and adjourn for 10 days to allow the legislatures to finish their investigations, as well as to allow a full forensic audit of the massive amount of illegal activity that has occurred here.” 46 Plaintiff knew what he was proposing would violate the law, but he nonetheless urged the Vice President to take those actions. The Vice President rejected Plaintiff’s pleas that he violate the law, and has since indicated that what the President and Plaintiff were insisting he do was "Un-American.”47 Former Fourth Circuit Judge Michael Luttig—for whom Plaintiff had previously worked as a law clerk—described Plaintiff’s view of the Vice President’s authority as "incorrect at every turn.”48 Evidence obtained by the Select Committee to date indicates that President Trump’s White House Counsel confronted Plaintiff before the rally, and rejected Plaintiff’s advice to Mr. Trump. And Plaintiff admitted that not a single Justice of the Supreme Court would agree with his view that the Vice President could refuse to count certain electoral votes.49 As documents now available to the Select Committee demonstrate, Plaintiff used his Chapman University email account to email Greg Jacob, Counsel to the Vice President, on January 5 and 6 urging the Vice President to take illegal action and refuse to count electoral votes.50 They implored Pence to declare any minor violation of the Electoral Count Act, that would stop the entire proceedings for 10 days, so they could implement their plan to cast doubt on the entire election results. The problem was the election had already been certified by each of the states. The election was over. All Pence could do is count the results. Their plan was a sham. The alleged crime is the conspiracy to defraud the United States. LINK Quote The intent required for a conspiracy to defraud the government is that the defendant possessed the intent (a) to defraud, (b) to make false statements or representations to the government or its agencies in order to obtain property of the government, or that the defendant performed acts or made statements that he/she knew to be false, fraudulent or deceitful to a government agency, which disrupted the functions of the agency or of the government. It is sufficient for the government to prove that the defendant knew the statements were false or fraudulent when made. The government is not required to prove the statements ultimately resulted in any actual loss to the government of any property or funds, only that the defendant's activities impeded or interfered with legitimate governmental functions. In summary, those activities which courts have held defraud the United States under 18 U.S.C. § 371 affect the government in at least one of three ways: [cited in JM 9-42.001] They cheat the government out of money or property; They interfere or obstruct legitimate Government activity; or They make wrongful use of a governmental instrumentality.

March 4, 20223 yr Quote Former attorney general William P. Barr said in an interview broadcast Friday that he believes that former president Donald Trump is "responsible in the broad sense of that word” for what transpired at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, when a violent mob interrupted Congress’s count of electoral college votes. "I do think he was responsible in the broad sense of that word in that it appears that part of the plan was to send this group up to the Hill,” Barr said in an interview with NBC News. "I think the whole idea was to intimidate Congress, and I think that that was wrong.” being complicit with cheeto's wrongdoings until you have a book coming out seems to be the repug way.
