TEXAS COMMISSION ON LAW ENFORCEMENT WHITEWASHES MILITIA PROMOTERS

On June 16th, an organization headed by a former Director of the Oath Keepers is scheduled to train law enforcement officers in Meridian, Texas.

Longtime militia-backer Richard Mack’s Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association (CSPOA) is the headline training organization for a joint event with the Bosque County Sheriff’s Office. The event is billed as “A Summer Community Event & Texas TCOLE Training Course,” sponsored by the Bosque County Farm Bureau and hosted by Bosque County, Texas Sheriff Trace Hendricks.[1]

The Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) has not only given its stamp of approval to the far-right training, but law enforcement officers also receive credit for attending. The Meridian training will be the third time this year that TCOLE has awarded continuing education credits for officers attending these far-right training sessions. Moreover, certifying these training sessions appears to be antithetical to many of TCOLE’s statutory requirements.

HAPPENING NOW: Oath Keepers are in court for a status update. Stewart RHODES' attorney just raised similar concerns about Jan. 6 select committee that came into play in Proud Boys case.

Judge Mehta says it's on his mind too.

MEHTA notes that he can't control whether the Jan. 6 committee releases transcripts.

RHODES's attorney jokes: DOJ could indict them for obstruction.

MEHTA doesn't find it particularly funny.

"We should have occupied the Capitol with demands"

In charging documents against new Jan 6 defendants from Florida.. feds allege one of them sent this set of text messages .. which were later deleted ===>


From Kyle Cheney thread linked upthread:

Juli Haller, an attorney for one of the Oath Keepers, says Jonathon Moseley — who dropped out of the case after he was disbarred — has refused to share any relevant documents he has. "He won’t contact us, he won’t help us," Haller said.

Meanwhile.. more Jan 6 arrests:

Feds charge another OathKeepers conspirator case. They allege Michael Greene of Indiana was part of Nov. 9, 2020 meeting about "plan to stop lawful transfer of presidential power"

And a Navy Reservist named Hatchet Speed of Virginia is arrested

Calling Gateway Pundit from jail, Oathkeepers leader Stewart Rhodes responds to Cassidy Hutchinson. He says the team that went into the Capitol staged their body armor, gear and weapons outside the metal detectors before going in to guard Ali Alexander and the VIPs. (Audio)

Calling Gateway Pundit from jail, Oathkeepers leader Stewart Rhodes says that when Secret Service saw people in the J6 crowd with firearms, maybe they were just off-duty cops or undercover FBI. (Audio)

Stewart Rhodes is in jail for his role in the Jan. 6 riot. His daughter, once deeply anti-feminist, has turned on him—and has a new cause.

So, Daily Beast article paywalled for most. I'm a subscriber. I'll share snippets on request, but the sub-headline is the description above. Sequoia Adams, Stew's 19 year old daughter, has become a huge pro-choice protestor, citing experiences within the family including the time Tasha almost bled out from a miscarriage. Powerful. Even a picture showing her and one of her younger sisters (still a minor so unnamed and face blurred in pic) holding pro-choice protest signs. Goes into great detail about how her dad and his fellow travelers are hypocrites. Money quote:
Sequoia said she was incensed by the recent Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization ruling overturning federal abortion rights. But not just because of her newfound feminism. Rather, it seemed to her like a betrayal of the libertarian-minded conservatism of the people she grew up with—a worldview that she understood to say everyone has the right to privacy from the government.

“And then those same people took it from me,” she said.
But the sunshine aye shall light the sky,
As round and round we run;
And the truth shall ever come uppermost,
And justice shall be done.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/oath-keepe ... -hearings/
A defense attorney for the Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes said Wednesday that members of the group accused of seditious conspiracy will seek a postponement of their upcoming criminal trials amid the Jan. 6 committee's public hearings.

Committee member Rep Jamie Raskin confirmed to CBS News the July 12 committee hearing will focus on the roles and actions of domestic violent extremist groups, conspirators and far right organizations.

An attorney for Rhodes, Phillip Linder, cited the expected focus on the Oath Keepers in seeking a postponement of the Sept. and Nov. 2022 criminal trials.

On the other hand: Accused militia leader says you have to delay trial until Jim Jordan is in charge bc J6C has become a circus.
I mean, while we're at it, why not invite Tucker Carlson to testify publicly before J6C, like Ben Smith tried...

His defense attorney says Rhodes specifically wants to respond to what Rep Liz Cheney (R-WY) has been saying about the OathKeepers at prior Jan 6 Committee hearings

Not only is Rhodes going to demand the testimony be held LIVE and unedited.. his lawyer says Rhodes will insist it be carried on network TV.. "and not just C-SPAN"

That's a fact, who tf cares what Elmer has to say? He can shove his response right up his rebuttal.

Make an offer you know they will refuse, then scream "They're afraid of me, (send money)" when they turn you down.

JUST IN: Prosecutors, in a court filing, outlined some of their trial evidence they plan to introduce against the Oath Keepers, including that “co-conspirator Jeremy Brown transported explosives to the Washington, D.C. area on Jan. 6, 2021.”

That's gonna leave a mark.

These guys are gonna enjoy Angola, maybe Marion. Maybe the explosives will even earn them a bed at Florence. Plenty of time to get in touch with yourself.

They may not rate Florence but the CMU at Terre Haute (or Marion) might be in their future. Say hi to flatcap.

Angola is a state prison so they are probably safe from that.
