Six more people linked to the far-right Oath Keepers militia group have been indicted on charges that they planned and coordinated with one another in the attack on the U.S. Capitol.

FILE - In this Wednesday, Jan. 6, 2021, file photo, violent protesters storm the Capitol, in Washington. People charged in the attack on the U.S. Capitol left behind a trove of videos and messages that have helped federal authorities build cases.

The case against those affiliated with the Oath Keepers is the largest conspiracy case brought by the U.S. Justice Department so far in the Jan. 6 insurrection. The six new people arrested this week are indicted alongside three othersAuthorities say the defendants prepared for weeks ahead of the attack, attended training sessions and recruited others.

Kelly Meggs, who authorities say is the leader of the Florida chapter of the Oath Keepers, wrote in a Facebook message in December: “Trump said It’s gonna be wild!!!!!!! It’s gonna be wild!!!!!!! He wants us to make it WILD that’s what he’s saying. He called us all to the Capitol and wants us to make it wild!!!,” according to court documents.

Hundreds arrested for protesting a rigged election. No one held accountable for hundreds of cities being destroyed, numerous police murdered, and innocent peole being victimized under the false flag of BLM. This is the DNC & JoeBiden ’s America. PrepareNow

I also believe I saw that five more Proud Boys have been charged with Conspiracy for January 6, 2021. I just hope that Trump's name or his neophytes names pop up in the investigations.

And they are still blaming Trump!!!!

Tanis42 'Authorities say the defendants prepared for weeks ahead of the attack, attended training sessions and recruited others. They donned tactical vests and helmets, moved in an organized fashion as they advanced on the Capitol and communicated with one another during the siege.'

OK. Now we need to prosecute all those who didn't Keep their Oath, to serve and protect the Constitution and America. Beginning from the top: Donald J. Trump, and following with Cruz, Hawley and all the Capitol Trumpers who tried to disenfranchise more than 80 million of voters.

Wasn't Roger Stone seen with the Oath keepers the day before the insurrection? Will he be arrested? Since he was granted a pardon by trump he cannot plead the fifth.

Bullshit. Why don't you report on the 35 capital police officers under investigation and the six officers on paid administrative leave right now for being involved in the January 6th capital riot?

koan4u Sooo Conspiracy to overthrow the government. That can't be good for them.

Acusaciones bien estúpidas, entre tan pocos hiban a derrocar al gobierno de los Estados Unidos de Norteamerica Resulta una locura el sólo pensarlo, fué irá momentatrea por el fraude electoral.

Good

i wonder how these people would feel if a mob were to rush their homes and roam around and take whatever they please because they think they have the right to

Go_Lackawanna When will the Kamala Harris investigation start?

Keep It Coming keep arresting them

Please stop blaming other people it was an inside Job-cops/Pentagon/Repub/Dems was all involved 💯🤬

Label 👏 white 👏 supremacist 👏 groups 👏 as 👏 domestic 👏 terrorists 🇺🇸

Were Roger Stone’s bodyguards among those who were indicted?

Meanwhile BLM and Antifa Body count exceeds 30 not a peep from the propaganda machine 🤡

How how these people being taken into custody? I thought over their dead body’s would they ever give up their AR’s and freedom.

Not spontaneous?

Pre-Planned.. Vindication proven for 45

ANTIFA!

Yes.👍👍👍👍👍

Did somebody say Oathkeeper?

More Trump terrorists?

No one is shocked. Next step - figuring out if Promise Keepers are (despite the warning on Wikipedia) related to Oath Keepers? I've got a latte says venn overlap.

Cosplaying useful idiots weren’t the only ones coordinating, & certainly weren’t the ones who wld benefit from the coup Ridiculous how much we are being led to focus attn away from the main perpetrators who engaged in **years** of corrupt, treasonous acts: TrumpPutinGOP

That goddamn Antifa!! 😤😤😤

We are in the middle of a civil war. Most on the right are terrorists, I’d say 80% at least. Guantanamo bay anyone?

Oath Keepers are not a militia - it's a police fraternity.

Conspiracy. Hope they get put away for decades.
