Stewart Rhodes' ex-wife speaks out: "He will do this again until he creates chaos he wants"

[kpete]

"Are you worried at all that if Rhodes were pardoned, there would be risk of another potential January 6?" asked Phillip.

"Absolutely," said Adams. "This is Stewart's life's work. This is what he does. He is incredibly brilliant. Completely manipulative. He is good at what he does. He will just regroup immediately. I guarantee he also has plans in the works for as soon as he is out. He will do this again until he creates the chaos he wants to create."

1. Frightening. And completely unsurprising.

[brush]

2. What the hell is she talking about? He's not getting out any time soon...

to "do it again." In 18 years, if he lives that long, he'll be an old, forgotten man and things will have long since moved on.

It's over for him and his motley crew. And if he's so brilliant, why is he where he is?

[gratuitous]

3. She was responding to a question about a potential pardon

Which isn't going to happen, even if the former guy gets elected again. The former guy doesn't associate with loser fuck-ups like our boy Elmer.

[Marius25]

5. DeSantis said he'd pardon the seditionists too

[obamanut2012]

45. And imo DeSantis would

[rampartc]

6. none of these guys are spending 18 years in prison.

they will be pardoned by the next repub president or these supreme court will release them on the shadowdocket.

[brush]

8. Don't bet on it. And don't bet on a republican winning the WH...

any time soon after what that party engineered on J6 and then snatched away women's rights on the books for 5 decades.

[rampartc]

12. pick one

i like biden and think he is doing a good job. but a bet? my money is on the stupidity of the voters.

[brush]

13. Did you make that bet in 2020? You wanna lose your money again?

[markodochartaigh]

29. My calculation is:

(Stupidity+ignorance+lack of empathy+greed) × average voter + (gerrymandering+disenfranchisement+voter suppression) x supreme court + (apathy+maleducation) x national media = enough for Republicans to win in many state and local races and enough to be competitive nationally. I think that education and engagement of the electorate can still tilt the balance though, at least if the Republicans are not able to cause the chaos that they are trying for.

[rampartc]

40. and that is why i nominate markochartaigh

for a nobel prize.

[markodochartaigh]

48. Haha, I will remove my doorbell.

So I will get the No Bell Prize

[whathehell]

14. I agree with you..The Repukes have lost virtually every

major election, Presidential and Congressional, since 2018. There will be no Repuke president to pardon theprisoned J6ers.

[Effete Snob]

7. You mean 18 months

Because he'll be out in 18 months if pardoned by a Republican president, which is what she was talking about.

"Are you worried at all that if Rhodes were pardoned, there would be risk of another potential January 6?"

[claudette]

9. Yes, but if

Dump or DeSanta pardons him, the chaos would ensue.

[brush]

11. Ain't gonna happen. What a campaign slogan...

"I'm going to pardon the J6 traitors", says trump or DeSantis.

Nope, nope, nope. Repubicans, the party of the attempted coup against the US government, the multiple-indicted candidate, and also the party that snatched away women's rights.

Nope, nope, not gonna happen.

[PortTack]

18. Nailed it! Prison life is tough. Maybe he'll start something inside prison and someone will knock

Him out!

These types always think they’re the smartest guy in the room…and it’s always their downfall

[DENVERPOPS]

33. Are you kidding

In every prison across the nation, there is an extremist White Supremacist Gang, and he would be elevated to the very top, or their new leader of that gang the second he walks thru the gate...................

He, and a ton of others should be in SuperMax where they DON'T ALLOW prisoners any contact with the outside world or even other prisoners. Hell, he can continue to direct his fellow insurrectionists from prison.......

I gotta tell you, I wouldn't want to be the Warden of any prison he or some of this cronies land in......

And I also believe that a large group of the Department of Correction officers in every prison are questionable as far as their allegiance.

Who knows how far the Trump people have infiltrated the military, each states national guard, the secret service, local police, state police, etc etc etc.

Just remember, *someone(s)* way up high got the Capitol Police, The DC Police the National Guard, the Secret Service to basically stand down on J6th. AND, once it started, "someone(s)" way up high made sure there was intentionally NO ONE TO CALL to authorize anyone to come to the outbreak and assist in protecting the capitol.............

[rampartc]

41. +1

prison is where these types recruit.

[PortTack]

46. He's still in prison..a federal prison, and no life will not be easy. He can plan and plot all he

Wants. His power will be limited to the inside

He will be in his late 70s if not paroled and even at that it will be supervised parole. The sentence was 18 yrs + 3 years supervised parole. He’s done.

[no_hypocrisy]

4. You could be talking about Trump as well.

[Walleye]

10. Absolutely, and he hasn't been convicted much less sentenced

[Warpy]

15. By the time he's out, all his contacts will be in jail

or they will have caught a clue and moved on with living reasonable lives.

The guy sounds like a typical sociopath: lots of surface charm, no empathy, no capacity for remorse.

[roamer65]

26. ...and he will be under constant surveillance by the FBI and other intelligence agencies.

Anything he tries to setup will be infiltrated, anything he says will be intercepted.

[Warpy]

30. Right, and prisons know how to deal with sociopaths

They're full of those as well as malignant narcissists who didn't get millions from daddykins.

[Johnny2X2X]

16. Dismissive of 81 Million people

Over and over again people like Rhodes show they don’t care about the 81 Million Americans who voted for Biden. It’s the most terrifying thing, they don’t consider 81 million people as worthy of having a say. That one fact makes me know what happened in Nazi Germany can happen here.

[Boomerproud]

17. If he is brilliant what does that say about our society?

The answer to that makes me nauseous.

[maxsolomon]

19. flawed people can be brilliant.

psychopaths are often quite intelligent.

[Island Deac]

20. Riddle me this...

I know you don't care, but I'm sitting here wondering out loud, "What is the difference between Stewart Rhodes and Osama bin Laden? One gets death, the other only gets 18 years in prison." Both violently attacked our Country and our Democracy! Anybody?

[stopdiggin]

23. the analogy is quite strained

on a lot of different levels

[AverageOldGuy]

21. There's a simple solution

Keep him in jail for 18 years. Monitor his phone calls and mail. If anything looks or sounds suspicious, cut him off.

[PortTack]

25. I think they do monitor their phone calls

One doesn’t go to federal prison for jay walking. There are literally hundreads of Stuart rhoades inside those walls.

[roamer65]

27. They will continue to monitor him and his network of traitors as well.

[DENVERPOPS]

34. I believe

that all of these posters who say he will be monitored, etc etc are terribly naive................

Just saying....................

[roamer65]

35. The birds are listening.

I find that people that underestimate our SIGINT capabilities are naive.

Read the parts on how they got caught.

[DENVERPOPS]

38. Hey

I don't disagree one bit with what you are saying..........

I was specifically talking about this guy covertly communicating with his crowd on the outside..............

[roamer65]

39. Apology if I misread you.

[PortTack]

47. Indeed! He can plot from the inside all he wants..his days of leading paramilitaries are over

[AllyCat]

22. How are monsters like this made?

[Ligyron]

42. That damn Powell Memo being put into effect was a large part of it.

The dumbing down of our education system helped as well, like can canceling civics courses f.i.

[LymphocyteLover]

24. I thought maybe she was talking about trump

[vlyons]

28. Hitler also thought he had a messianic mission to save and purify Germany,

and look what Hitler wrought.

[Kennah]

31. Jan 6, 2045 - Look for a 75 year old man with an eye patch, a cain, a wooden leg, and a parrot

[Fla Dem]

32. I have no question he would do something.

I'm also worried that all those maniacal MAGNuts that are in prison will recruit other inmates. The thousand or so insurrectionists traitors only got a slap on the wrist in sentencing...months to a few years. When they get out what's to prevent them from rejoining AND bringing along their recruits from prison.

I can see them making a huge effort to recruit more dysfunctional inmates to join up with the "Proud Boys" and other right-wing/insurrectionist militia.

Also concerned about the guards in those prisons. Hope someone is doing a good job of screening anyone assigned to guard the insurrectionists.

[roamer65]

36. The Governor Whitmer kidnapping plot.

https://www.thecut.com/2020/12/the-gretchen-whitmer-kidnapping-plot-what-we-know.html

An FBI informant infiltrated their first meeting…BOO!

Rhodes is gonna be watching over his back for the rest of his life.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

37. Statement from Merrick Garland on sentencings

Link to tweet

[Initech]

43. So many violent lunatics have been enabled by right wing social media.

[moondust]

44. Aggressive anarchist?

Spoiled little boy with guns who wants a pony?

[NotVeryImportant]

49. Yes, he will.
