The Jan 6 Oath keepers trial

I've been following it on twitter. I guess it's about half way through the state's case. This guy is a good one to follow, very detailed about testimony:




To be frank, I'm not sure the case is going all that great for the government or at least it's not unfolding the way I thought it might.
The OK doesn't seem to have any contact with people in TFG's office that I have heard. They went to DC in hopes trump would declare martial law, which he never did, and were upset that he didn't. The first and only cooperating witness so far (there will be others) said he was surprised to hear people entered the capital. There wasn't any evidence of a plan in advance to storm the capital. No evidence that the OK took the lead in the initial assault. A lot of evidence of communications but not too much about specific plans. That's my take anyway
Still we're only half way thru. More to come.

(thanks for the link above!), and I think if you go for conspiracy, they've got it. He shows and tells the conspiracy... it may not be all we would like in that it doesn't involve *rump, himself, in their conspiracy. But OK was "guarding" Stone. I'm hoping more comes out about that.
