We've heard a lot about Oath Keeper planning leading up to January 6, but in a new filing, the DOJ lays out specific statements from Thomas "Commander Tom" Caldwell *during* the #CapitolRiot it says show an agreement with those around him to take the Capitol. @wusa9 @EricFlackTV
There's also more about the "quick reaction force" staged at the Comfort Inn in Ballston "should things go high order."

Plus, new messages from Oath Keepers president Stewart Rhodes (Person 1) saying OKs would have "no choice" but to act if Trump failed to do so. #CapitolRiot
As I wrote about earlier this month, Oath Keepers president Stewart Rhodes has still not been charged in the case — and defense attorneys want to know if he's going to be or not. wusa9.com/article/news/n…
More about the new statements from Oath Keeper Thomas Caldwell released by the DOJ today. wusa9.com/article/news/l…

"When you threw the plank and the fire extinguisher at the officer, were you acting in self-defense?" Judge Chutkan asks Palmer.

"No your honor, I was not," he says.

Happening now: Sentencing hearing for Anthony Mariotto, of Florida. DOJ says Mariotto was part of and filmed a crowd that charged through police as they yelled, "Hands up don't shoot!" and "I can't breathe!" #CapitolRiot Image
Prosecutors play a video of rioters, including Mariotto, walking through the Capitol banging on doors and trying to open them. Says we know there were staffers at the time hiding from the rioters. "What would have happened if they'd found someone?"
DOJ says it's "particularly concerning" to the government that Mariotto was part of the crowd that went around banging on doors and yelling "Where are the traitors!?" Mariotto eventually made it into the Senate Gallery. Image

Good morning all. We'll kick off today at 10 a.m. with the sentencing hearing for Andrew Hatley.
The government is asking today for Andrew Hatley to serve 2 months of home detention and 3 years of supervised probation. His attorney says 1 month of probation and community service is sufficient.
DOJ says Hatley's actions were on the lower end. He entered the building, posed for photos in the crypt, and then left after minutes. But he also admitted to FBI he saw the chaos as he came to the Capitol, climbed through a broken window.

The ever-on-it @ryanjreilly wrote about how the FBI identified Justin Jersey via a rather conspicuous tattoo here: huffpost.com/entry/fingerma…

At 1 p.m. Brandon and Stephanie Miller will be back in court for sentencing before Judge Tanya S. Chutkan. #CapitolRiot @wusa9 @EricFlackTV
The DOJ is asking for three months of home detention for Brandon Miller and two months for Stephanie, along with 36 months of probation for each. DOJ is asking for the extra month for Brandon due to his live streams during and after downplaying the #CapitolRiot.
Stephanie Miller kept her #CapitolRiot messages in the DMs, writing that, "We're hoping we don't get charges, but we'll proudly take them if so." She also wrote that she and her husband "enjoyed every part of what we did and was a part of."
