One has to wonder, if Feds were so serious about Rhodes... why did they just not bother to search him for a whole year (they searched one cell phone 4 months after 1/6)?
That's a whole year for Rhodes to just destroy evidence!
For that matter, if the feds are serious about Rhodes seditious conspiracy indictment
Why didn't they hit him with an easy lesser charge early on?
They could have gotten him on conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding (as they charged Caldwell) or tresspassing
The questions surrounding Rhodes only intensify in light of recent arrest.
Contrast seriousness of sedition charge with feds not hitting him with lesser charge early on and not even searching him other than a single phone
Another thing is the timing. This is coming just days after we learned that an attorney for Kelly Meggs subpoenaed Rhodes and was getting him to testify
This charge shuts Rhodes up for the duration of the trials
Much more to say...

More Rhodes and the dirty 1/6 commission: since this piece (because of this piece) the commission has issued a lip service subpoena---so far nothing has come of it
Ted Cruz sold out everything he allegedly stood for domestically for a chance to sanction the nordstream 2 gas pipeline...
All that opposition to ‘wokeness’ he faked for 12 months just amounts to leverage against Nordstream 2
Is it possible to owned harder by daddy donors and be a bigger sellout than that?
“Yes, you can install a communist at deputy head of treasury as long as a gas pipeline halfway around the world gets sanctioned so my donors can export LNG”
And that included the cost of INVENTING FROM SCRATCH all new space technology that had never been developed or tested before in human history
We’re talking rocket engines, command modules, lunar landers, computer equipment, all the incredible component parts
Within each broad category (eg, rocket engines) you have the incredible volume of subcategories (eg, multiple rockets for different stages of launch, plus ascent engines versus descent engines)
Americans hoping to understand the new superpower have one excellent asset: a hitherto unknown power behind Xi’s throne has written an entire book revealing exactly what he thinks of USA.
Revolver News analyzes "America contra America" by Wang Huning
To simply fall back on “American exceptionalism” without the greatness and achievement to back it up is to embrace a crass and stubborn parochialism, a smug belief in one’s invincibility even as America’s buildings crumble and its society implodes.
You have to go to like outer space media to see not only was it a Uyghur, but because it's a Uyghur it's impacting China's investment calculus in Afghanistan:
Newsguard, which "vets" online news content and slaps "nutrition labels" for accuracy, employs none other than disgraced former NSA chief Michael Hayden on its board of advisers. Even lefties think he's a liar and war criminal.
And then you have Richard Stengel, who described his state department role under obama as "propagandist in chief." He's also called for abolishing 1st amendment in its present form to allow hate speech laws
