Even the Oath Keepers are going to claim that they were following presidential orders to storm the capitol and stage an insurrection. Wonder what the moron will say to this other than "I don't know who they are".

But Mr. Rhodes and his subordinates intend to offer a novel and risky defense in seeking to rebut the accusations that they plotted to use force against the government: They plan to tell the jury that when armed teams of Oath Keepers prepared to rush into Washington from Virginia on Jan. 6, 2021, they believed they would be following legal orders from the president himself.

They can't be guilty because (according to some) there was no insurrection, right?

Nope. I've said my piece on it. The likelihood of you disagreeing was 100%, and I knew that when I posted it.
Your disagreement doesn't make me, or the FBI's assessment, wrong. In fact, all you and others have done is throw out attempted insults. I find it interesting, and unsurprising, that none of your responses have described why you also disagree with the FBI's assessment.

Your cited article is anonymously-sourced and is now over 13 months old. A lot has happened in the interim, including guilty pleas for seditious conspiracy by some of Roger Stone's buddies, a federal grand jury investigating the fake electors scheme and a Fulton County grand jury investigating election fraud in Georgia. A lot of shoes have yet to drop. Try to keep up, even if it means that your Fox-fed priors will be challenged.

None of which has anything to do with the events of January 6th. Did you get lost again on your way to the keyboard?

The Justice Department this week will argue at trial for the first time in over a decade that a group of Americans plotted to violently oppose the US government.

A conspiracy to overthrow the government by violent means. The very definition of an insurrection.

So, you're saying that the Oathkeepers and Proud Boys prosecution, along with their connections to Roger Stone (and his communications with Mark Meadows) have nothing to do with J6? WTF? And are you also saying the fake electors scheme has nothing to do with J6 (the fake elector plan was integral component of Trump's attempted autogolpe).
You really should start reading some real news instead of the wingnut garbage that leaves you so comically misinformed. And BTW, the outdated, anonymously sourced article you cited is from Reuters, now affiliated with the Russian wire service TASS:

The theory being that since no one has been charged and convicted of "insurrection", it didn't happen.

McConnell rebukes RNC, calls Jan. 6 ‘violent insurrection’

Quote:

“It was a violent insurrection for the purpose of trying to prevent the peaceful transfer of power after a legitimately certified election from one administration to the next,” said McConnell, R-Ky.

A quote for the benefit of our village idiot.
Perhaps his objection to the use of the word "insurrection" is because we haven't been using the "violent" adjective with it.
