A perennial political candidate from Montana who was once denied admission to the bar because of criminal record and 'connections to white supremacy groups' has been playing a behind the scenes role in the defense of Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes.

denying him admission to that state’s bar at that time. He was later admitted to the Rhode Island bar and is still a member in good standing.Roots worked in 1994 as a paid staffer on the reelection campaign of the late Sen. Conrad Burns , but did so under a pseudonym, according to the court opinion. Roots was eventually “terminated because of his unsavory associations with white supremacist activists,” the court said.

Tarpley, Rhodes’ new lawyer, said he wasn’t familiar with the details of Roots’ background. He said Rhodes faces an uphill battle in the trial set to begin next month over his objection and is scrambling to meet the challenge. “The notion that you are going to create the kind of havoc you will — and havoc is the only appropriate word I can think of — by moving Mr. Rhodes trial, it’s not going to happen,” Mehta said.

“My position on Stewart is like my position on most people: right now he is in a jam and I feel a sense that we need to rally in his behalf ,” Roots said in the May post. “He has obviously made mistakes , but I believe he is totally innocent of these charges.”Roots posted about Rhodes as part of a broadside against the Justice Department’s case against him, complaining that prosecutors were “pressuring Stewart Rhodes and other Oathkeepers to take plea deals.

Rhodes has contended that his language was protected First Amendment speech, that his firearms purchase before and after Jan. 6 were lawful and that his group remained nonviolent throughout the breach of the Capitol.
