@TexasTribune Rhodes said that, at its peak, the Oath Keepers had about 40,000 dues-paying members.
That means 8,000 law enforcement officers were members, if we're using his estimate that they account for 20 percent of members. #January6thhearings texastribune.org/2022/12/21/jan…

Rhodes' interview with the January 6 committee sheds new light on the makeup of the Oath Keepers. Previous leaks have shown that there were quite a lot of law enforcement involved.

Earlier this month, another leaked Oath Keepers list showed that more than 300 members described themselves as current or former DHS employees. #January6th

Anyways, I focused on the Rhodes piece but this story has much more than that from him — and includes recaps of interviews with Alex Jones and others. w/ @matthewchoi2018 @williammelhado
