January 6th Was Seditious Conspiracy
The Oath Keepers’ convictions for seditious conspiracy and obstruction of an official proceeding is a blow to Trump and GOP efforts to whitewash the January 6th Insurrection.
In a landmark decision, a federal jury has convicted Trump loyalists for participating in a violent conspiracy to block the transfer of presidential power. The Oath Keepers wanted Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act to mobilize the military and private militia. In another legal defeat for Trump, an appeals court ended the special master appointed to review thousands of government documents seized from Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence.
