Judge Mehta, after making numerous pretrial conclusions in his lengthy motion related to Trump today, now considering whether Stewart Rhodes should remain incarcerated before trial.

Mehta, as always, trying the case in a pretrial detention hearing: amgreatness.com/2022/01/20/the…
Oath Keepers entered the building non-violently. No weapons (left behind in VA) and attacked no one.

Mehta mesmerized with the “QRF” that never materialized.

These trials need to be moved out of DC—Mehta preening for judicial promotion.

amgreatness.com/2022/02/07/no-…
Mehta “concerned” about the timing of Rhodes’ legal purchases of guns after January 6. Rhodes is Person One in the Oath Keepers conspiracy case and to fend off criticism, DOJ charged him a year after January 6 with “seditious conspiracy.”

Mehta says Rhodes is a danger for…
organizing 2 groups to enter the Capitol. The 2 groups committed no violence (only one charged with pushing a cop who hit him) and had no chance of overthrowing anything.

Rhodes will remain detained pending trial; issue is whether he stays in Oklahoma or transported to DC Gulag.

First major trial of a J6 defendant is set to begin later this month.

DOJ already in some hot water with the judge, who notes jury instructions and other indictments still claim Kamala Harris was in the Capitol during the protest--she was not in the building. h/t @joshgerstein Image
I explained why DOJs falsehood about Harris' whereabouts is relevant to thousands of misdemeanor charges. Judge McFadden also scolded DOJ for perpetuating the lie before a grand jury:

Reffitt was charged six months after January 6 on a firearms violation--DOJ accused him of having a gun at the Capitol after DOJ and Wray had to admit no one had been charged with carrying a firearm that day.

But looks like DOJ only has proof of Reffitt carrying a holster...

So I read this piece of “journalism” that intentionally omits the numerous informants and undercover agents involved in the plot…
No “they” didn’t hold any trips or missions: Steve Robeson, the convicted felon and FBI informant, organized every trip and paid for all of them with FBI funds.

Btw, notice familiar language btw Whitmer plot and Oath Keepers case?
Now I assume @ninaburleigh, who accused me of bad journalism, knows how deeply involved the FBI was in these trips. Funny it’s not mentioned in her article:

My write-up on Judge McFadden's order that blasted DOJ for "misleading" a grand jury for a year about Kamala Harris' whereabouts on January 6 and denying DOJ requests to limit cross-exam of Secret Service to confirm Pence's whereabouts.

Quite the scandal:
amgreatness.com/2022/02/11/jud…
Kamala Harris needs to account for her activities on the day she compared to Pearl Harbor and 9/11.

She at the Capitol that morning for a classified briefing with Senate Intel but she left and arrived at DNC HQ at 11:30.

Why did she leave? She was a sitting US senator...
and incoming VP and she left the building before the start of the joint session of Congress that would (likely) certify her nomination?

This makes no sense. And the FBI and Capitol police have lots of explaining to do. Why did the public not know this for over a year?

Hearing right now with Beryl Howell, chief judge of DC District Court. This is an unusual hearing bc it appears the defendant, Greg Rubenacker, will plead guilty to all 10 counts in his indictment.

This includes 5 counts related to charge that relied on Harris, Pence location
DOJ fixed the 1752 charges against Rubenacker in a superseding indictment filed in November.

But DOJ still refuses to specify Pence's location.

I am curious to see if Howell addresses any of this:
This is...odd

Ok a thread on McFadden's ruling today finally calling out the falsehood Biden's DOJ has presented to federal judges, defendants, the public, and a grand jury.

DOJ has charged hundreds of J6 protesters with low-level misdemeanors, including bogus...

s3.documentcloud.org/documents/2120…
claims the area was "restricted" bc Harris and Pence--Secret Service protectees-- were in the building and therefore any entry was illegal.

DOJ has slapped the same 4 misdemeanors against people to force plea deals, knowing the other 2 or 3 were bogus:

justice.gov/usao-dc/case-m…
So DOJ promises to drop the bogus charges to get pleas on "parading" in the Capitol, which prosecutors know they can't just charge as a single count. They add on other unsubstantiated crimes to compel plea deals on the silly "parading" charge by promising to drop the other counts
