mr. rhodes at that time. you see the dates there. january 10, january 11, january 12, january 13, january 14-19. adding up all the purchases listed in theal indictment that rhodes made of firearms and related equipment over the short burst of time, he spent something like $40,000 right around january 6th just on weaponry. quote, on inauguration day, january 20th, 2021, one oath keeper in menld another after this if nothing happens it's war, civil war, 2.0. around this time, quote, mr. rhodes messaged others to organize local militias to oppose president biden's administration. for the oath keepers january 6th was not the end point. it was apparently the beginningl of a new phase of their fight against the government.sie as of today, 11 of them are facing seditious conspiracy charges, which is a serious felonys count brought by u.s. federal prosecutors in washington, d.c. joining us now is university of chicago historian kathleen ba lou. she is the author of bringing the war home, the white house power movement on parliamentary america

mr. rhodes replied, awesome. the arizona quick reaction force team member also said the group would have force and manpower. on january 4th, they did all's go to washington and were stationed with quick reaction forces just outside of the district where they stockpiled weapons, assuming to be ready on short notice to come blazing in. these stacks of oath keepers, have beginning headed toward the capitol and the capitol steps. the point of the spear for breaking into the nation's government. according to days indictment, there was not one, but two stacks of oath keepers who breached the sacks on two separate occasions. they were looking to try to find speaker, nancy pelosi. just before 1:30 pm, us claimed by and oath keepers affiliate that they had breached the capitol, mr. rhodes replied, no i'm right here. these are patriots. pence, as i predicted, isn't doing anything. the patriots are taking it into their own hands. they have had enough. approximately 1:30 pm, oath keepers said -- they have pepper spray at the

mr. rhodes said, we will have to do a bloody, massively bloody resolution against them, that is what is gonnae to happen. also today -- subpoenas to social media companies to detain information from social media, google, twitter, facebook, reddit. in the notes, two key questions for the select committee are how to spread the spread of misinformation and violent extremism contributed to the violent attack on our democracy and what steps, if any, social media companies took to prevent their platforms from breeding breeding grounds for these people. it's disappointing, that months after this engagement we still do not have the documents and information necessary to answer those basic questions. joining us now, democratic congressman, -- she is a member of the house judiciary committee and -- thank you very much for joining us tonight. the january six committee has given up on trying to cooperatively try to get this information from the social media companies, they have now had to turn to subpoenas. how long do you expect it would take for these companies to be able to deliver what the subpoenas

mr. rhodes himself said he had in mind when it comes to washington. >> reporter: oath keeper leader and founder stewart rhodes has spent nearly a year publicly denying he had anything to do with the violence on january 6th. >> there were no plans by the leadership, me and the team leader, whit, to enter the capitol, no instructions by us to do so. we didn't even know any of our guys had done it until afterward. >> reporter: but this indictment april cus rose of seditious conspiracy, a complex months' long plan for a bloody revolution if trump took office. rhodes purchased thousands of dollars of guns and tactical equipment, others setting up an armed quick reaction force and communicating as they stormed the capitol. >> we are executing civil arrest, we have probable cause, acts of treason, fraud. >> reporter: a promoter of the big lie called for donald trump to invoke the insurrection exact over the 2020 election or else. >> if he does not do it, we'll have to fight a bloody civil war or revolution. >> reporter: that fiery language isn't new for rose. he's been obsessed with fears of a deep st

mr. rhodes, i don't think average people will look at it that way but you work with what you got. >> jonathan, we know that committee has issued subpoenas to youtube, twitter, reddit, parent companies for google and facebook to get answers about the misinformation that led to the insurrection. this case about the oath keepers is about a finite group and amount of time. but if you want to keep this from happening again, what do you need to know from the social media companies? >> well what we want to know is really the volume of the messages. how much is -- like how wide is the dissemination of this really hate that they are trying to push out into all aspects of the society here in the united states but also abroad. their ideology is something they key upon. but right now, their messaging has gone essentially unrestricted for the last year. since january 6. january 6 was a win for the far right extremist groups. why? because they dpidn't have any culpability for their actions. no one held them accountable for their actions. that stopped yesterday. we're going to see a shift in the way that me

mr. rhodes looks like he's somewhere, i used this analogy, you're going up the ladder here, right, he's not lowest rung, he's not the highest rung, but he's certainly somewhere in the middle here. do you expect this to go to trial? or do you expect them to do everything they can to see if they can get him to -- if he can -- if there is someone more to give, if they can get him to do that. >> yes. and let me explain what may seem like an odd answer. overwhelmingly, when people are indicted by federal prosecutors, they don't go to trial. more than 90% of cases resolve through plea agreement. but here, you have 11 defendants. so even if you just did the math, it would seem like one or two or three might go to trial and the others would try to strike plea bargains and perhaps cooperate. so, hard to know what any individual will do. but usually it's in their best interests, the best interests of a defendant, if they can, to work out a plea agreement with the government. and if they can, to give truthful cooperation, because that helps reduce their own sentence. in fact, we see that behavior over

mr. rhodes have also shared information with the 1/6 committee? icolle that's the question i just placed in to the committee. they had ready some of these same people, including stewart rhodes, to appear before the committee and provide documents and testimony about their involvement in some of the planning. the letters that were transmitted by thompson to rhodes and enrique tario for example, they cited specific examples of posts on parler and other social media platforms about, you know, how these extremists should be identified and go incould go needo ahead of the insurrection -- go incognito ahead of the insurrection in order to breach the capitol. but it is unclear whether they cooperated with the committee just yet. there is a fire wall between the committee and the department of jugs that the committee staff and investigators have been adhering closely to. but, again, this ring of activity is of interest. and it's likely in this 340-plus pool of interviews and conditions that the committee has already conducted that it has included some who

mr. rhodes, very notably, did not actually enter the capitol, he did not illegally enter, or try to stop congress that day, but if you look at the charging documents, it says he was a key player and the mastermind behind the attack. >> harry, in terms of the individual speed of the day. i think katie's correct say the odds of their cooperation are pretty low, we'll see what happens. how teasing this plays out? >> they are low, but they have a lot to lose, more than the average person. if they are held in contempt, and it is sustained, it is really curtains for them. i also want to second will katie said, just to say very roughly, both january 6th and doj are about trying to align what we now know as being seditious conspiracy cases, to the oval offices that will be -- marginal group that is a bridge from trump to these folks. fundraising, etc. sydney powell, among others, represented michael powell, and we're beginning to inch into the michael powell alex jones land. in any event, i think will come out talking, and it's not clear the committee really believes that they need their testimo

mr. rhodes, himself, openly said he had in mind for washington. cnn's drew griffin as that. >> oath keeper, leader, and founderings stuart rhodes spent nearly a year publicly denying he had anything to do with the violence on january 6th. >> there were no plans by the leadership -- us -- to enter the capitol. no instructions by us to do so. we didn't even know that any of our guys had done it, until afterwards. >> reporter: but this indictment tells a different story. accusing rhodes of seditious conspiracy, a complex, months-long plan for a massively bloody revolution if joe biden took office. prosecutors allege oath keepers prepared for battle, at rhodes' direction. rhodes, purchasing thousands of dollars in guns and tactical equipment. others setting up an armed quick-reaction force. and communicating as they stormed the capitol. >> you are executing citizens' arrests. arrest this assembly. we have probable cause acts of treason, election fraud. >> reporter: a promoter of the big lie, rhodes constantly and publicly called for donald trump to inv

mr. rhodes. tell us about him. >> look, he was certain unapologetic after what happened on january 6th.hen we went looking at some video and found that he was actually there, he was standing there. you can see him in pictures and video. with other members of the oath keepers. then you see these pictures of a group of oath keepers, nine or ten of them, all together in a row, in a stack, very much how the military might operate there in military garb, many of them, and we see them go in and breach the capitol. some of the members of the oath keepers, three of them, they were the first people to be charged with conspiracy for the january 6th insurrection. stewart rhodes, though, was never seen going into the capitol, but about 24 days after the insurrection happened, we heard from him. and we heard exactly what he thought about what was going on with this new administration, the joe biden administration. and he was encouraging people to basically carry arms and try a revolution against this particular administration. i want to let you hear from him, just a couple weeks after the insurrecti

mr. rhodes, and they have no chance of conviction? >> yeah.takes trial definitely by far. a colleague of mine, a former federal prosecutor wrote a whole piece about this for "the new yorker." the most difficult charge is treason, and that is a specific crime. it was used in the civil war. and that is sort of, i think, a prolonged armed effort to, you know, attack the u.s. government. sedition is lower than that. it's a plot, and then you act on that plot to interfere in the u.s. government ice procedures or, you know, block the u.s. government. so this, according to legal expert, most of the things i've been reading today, legal experts think that sedition, you know, is a charge. it does appear to have strong evidence. they haven't overcharged him. . but, again, yes, the stakes are high. if stewart rhodes is convicted, it plays into every complaint that's come from militia groups, an all-powerful federal government is coming after them unfairly and that they're the victims of this all-powerful federal government and most importantly an all-pow

mr. rhodes mentioned, we're moving it from some 24 hours. one california. doesn't run late at night. why we moving it to 24 hours? >> i spoke of 24-hour transit lane. i misspoke. i don't think there's anywhere proposed. california street -- >> there are no existing transit lanes that are part-time that are being extended to 24-7. the newer lanes were nonexist further west in the corridor will be 24-7. there are few hours at night where the one california doesn't operate. >> director yekutiel: why restrict these transit only lanes more than we're going to use them for our bus lines post-rush hour or whatever? >> for a number of reasons. one of which is that we can't paint it red. it's not 24 hours. we move all of the benefits. while this is not a 24 hour line, it runs about 4:30 in the morning to about midnight. it has some very de facto 24-hour characteristics. lastly, because the other demands for parking and travel through a lane is equally low at those hours of the night. we typically start with being a 24-hour lane so we get that 24-hour stop enforcement. >> director yekutiel: i

mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from rhode island. mr. reed: mr. president, a year ago thousands of support certificates of then president trump, marching under banners supporting concessions, conspiracies and white supremacy breached the senate and house chambers in hopes of overturning a free and fair election in which seven million more americans voted for president biden. there was, of course, no proof and no truth to the claims of aberrant voting that mr. trump invented in order to fuel the mob. the assault on the capitol was an attack on the united states and on democracy itself. we have the brave men and women of the u.s. capitol police to thank for defending the country against what can accurately be called an insurrection. and while the assault failed that day, thanks to the efforts of these officers and their partners from neighboring jurisdictions, an insidious campaign against our democracy continues to the baseless lies and antics of the former president and his associates. mr. trump set the events of january 6 in motion when he refuse
