    #DOJ moves to toss #SeditiousConspiracy #convictions of #OathKeepers & #ProudBoys

    The DOJ on Tuesday asked a federal appeals court to throw out the seditious conspiracy convictions of Proud Boys & Oath Keepers leaders who were sentenced to #prison terms for leading members of the #FarRight #extremist groups in attacking the US Capitol to keep #Trump in #power >5 years ago.

  2. “The #FBI criminal investigation originated from a referral sent by #KurtOlsen, Presidentially appointed Director of Election Security & Integrity,” the affidavit said. Olsen played a central role in Trump’s #coup attempt to overturn the #2020election, including speaking to the president multiple times on #Jan6, 2021. He has continued to push false claims about elections, & was recently appointed to a key role in the #Trump admin.

  3. #Georgia Ballot Inquiry Originated With #ElectionDenier in #Trump White House

    A newly unsealed affidavit showed that a criminal “investigation” into the #2020election in Fulton County, GA, relied heavily on BS claims about ballots that have been widely debunked.

  4. You know what?

    If you don’t get how fucked up this is, then you are as complicit in Trump’s #BigLie, his #SeditiousConspiracy to overthrow the #US government, his feigned ignorance of facts & his normalization of #PoliticalViolence, as he is.

    Politicians lie.

    Politicians are hypocrites:

    Still, it is not okay to tell the populace that they must go to war based on a known lie.

    Jus sayin.

  5. #StewartRhodes was serving his time in prison when his sentence was commuted by #Trump in Jan 2025. It was one of the first actions taken by Trump when he resumed office.

    Federal District Judge Amit Mehta ruled in Jan 2025 that Rhodes & other members of the #OathKeepers needed to seek #court permission to travel to #DC or be on Capitol Grounds.

    According to the ADL, the Oath Keepers is an anti-government #extremist org within the #militia movement.

    #StewartRhodes, the founder of the #FarRight #extremist organization the #OathKeepers, was seen on Capitol Hill on Thursday outside of the hearing room where former special counsel #JackSmith is testifying before the #House #Judiciary Committee.

    Rhodes was previously convicted of #SeditiousConspiracy & sentenced to 18 YEARS in #prison for his actions related to the #Jan6, 2021 #insurrection at the US Capitol.

  7. The questioning by #GymJordan about #CassidyHutchinson was made-for-TV drama.

    #JackSmith didn’t need to characterize whether he “thought” Hutchinson was a liar.

    Her testimony was #hearsay. Hearsay does not hold up in #court. That’s all he had to say.

    Unfortunately Jordan actually found a way to politicize Smith’s measured response that he hadn’t made a final decision on a witness list.

  8. 🚨#Georgia Prosecutor Drops #Trump 2020 #ElectionInterference #RICO Case🚨

    A Georgia prosecutor on Wednesday officially dropped the historic #racketeering case against Trump & others for attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election, closing the chapter in a legal effort once seen as a grave threat to Trump’s political future.

  9. “If we believe that citizens should receive notice when the #government subpoenas their phone bill, great! Perhaps this revolutionary new policy—which #CivilLiberties groups would probably support—should be the law. But then the law should protect the civil liberties of all 320 million Americans, as the #EqualProtectionClause of the #Constitution demands, not just the 100 Americans in the #Senate,” #JamieRaskin added.

  10. Outrageous. Expected. Despicable.

    #Trump has pardoned dozens of allies accused of trying to overturn his 2020 election loss, including #RudyGiuliani, #MarkMeadows, #JeffreyClark & #SidneyPowell, a top #DOJ official said Monday.

    Trump, in a proclamation dated on Friday, said the move would end "a grave national injustice" & "continue the process of national reconciliation”

  11. Quite the opposite, in fact. #JackSmith, who spent >2 years aggressively collecting evidence to prove #Trump mishandled #ClassifiedDocuments & tried to overturn the results of the #2020election, appears eager to publicly challenge a foundational pillar of #MAGA canon: that Trump was a sinned-upon innocent who did nothing to deserve scrutiny, much less 2 prosecutions.

  12. It was not immediately clear whether their suspensions would affect Taranto’s sentencing date or the government’s recommendation on the punishment he should receive.

  13. Following the #Jan6 attack, there was a wave of #civil cases & #criminal prosecutions that splintered the [domestic terrorist] orgs & sent many members to prison before sweeping #clemency from #Trump. Among them were group leaders named alongside >30 others in the city’s suit, including #ProudBoys leader Henry “Enrique” Tarrio & #OathKeepers founder Stewart Rhodes, both of whom juries #convicted of #SeditiousConspiracy for their part in trying to block the peaceful transition of power.

  14. The prosecutors were still under probationary status, allowing the firings w/o recourse under #DOJ policy….
    
Notifications went out Fri to people who served in the office’s now-disbanded Capitol siege prosecution section…. The cuts amount to about 8% of the office’s prosecutors. Combined with a recently announced freeze on hiring & promotions, the openings will have impacts across the office’s #civil, #appellate, #SuperiorCourt & #ViolentCrime divisions…

    #law #Felon47 #Jan6 #SeditiousConspiracy

  15. ONLY ONE #J6 defendant received a punishment that severe— #ProudBoys ldr #EnriqueTarrio, who was ALSO convicted of a #SeditiousConspiracy to keep #Trump in power. He was sentenced to 22yrs in prison. The avg sentence for a rioter w/no criminal history & convicted of no felonies other than obstruction is ~2yrs.

  16. Justices #Alito & #Kavanaugh questioned the #DOJ’s use of the “obstruction of an official proceeding” charge, & whether Congress meant to turn illegal & disruptive protesting, a #misdemeanor punishable by only a year or less in prison, into a #felony that carries a potential 20-yr sentence.

    The only #Jan6 defendant given a sentence at or over 20 years is #ProudBoys leader #EnriqueTarrio, who was also convicted of leading a #SeditiousConspiracy to block Biden from taking office.

  17. In addition to Biggs, another fmr #FarRight #ProudBoys ldr #ZacharyRehl was #sentenced today. Rehl is to serve 15 years in #prison, after a #jury #convicted him of #SeditiousConspiracy for storming the US Capitol in a failed bid to overturn #Trump's #2020election defeat.

    The prison terms handed down by US Dist Judge Timothy Kelly for #Biggs & #Rehl, …sentenced for the #Jan6, 2021, attack, were below US #SentencingGuidelines & far lower than the 33-yr & 30-yr terms sought by #FederalProsecutors.

  18. #KennethChesebro, alleged architect of #FakeElectors’ plot, followed #AlexJones around Capitol grounds on #January6th.

    Chesebro is the only one of the unindicted #CoConspirators in #Trump’s recent federal #indictment & only member of Trump’s #legal efforts who is now known to have been on the Capitol grounds on #Jan6.

  19. Yes! Elmer Stewart Rhodes got 18 YEARS IN PRISON!
    Will he be issued an orange eyepatch in prison?

    This is an important sentence because, as Glenn Kirschner says,

  20. Today's word is #SeditiousConspiracy. Can you say that with me, boys and girls? Seditious conspiracy is what happens when a bunch of right-wing buttheads agree to try to overthrow the government, and take concrete steps to effectuate that agreement.

    Seditious conspiracy will get you 20 years in the Big House, boys and girls. And that's not a nice place like your house is.
