47 Capitol Insurrectionists Have Now Been Charged With Sedition and Conspiracy. Here's Where Their Cases Stand.


     The indictment of Kellye SoRelle is a bigger deal than most people seem to realize. SoRelle wasn't just AN attorney for the Oath Keepers or even THE attorney for the Oath Keepers. This Texas attorney who virtually testified before the January 6th Committee took over as the LEADER of the Oath Keepers in August 2021, and she was featured in the infamous video of Oath Keepers founder Elmer Stewart Rhodes III and Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio (both of whom have since been charged with seditious conspiracy) meeting in a D.C. parking garage on the night of January 5th, 2021. 

     SoRelle is far from the first person, however, to be charged with conspiracy or even sedition for her actions before, during, and after the January 6th insurrection. Here are the 45 people who have been charged (so far) and where their cases stand:

Texas Man Accused of Trafficking Children in Bolivia Arrested for January 6th Insurrection

     Today is the day. On August 1st, 2023, Donald Trump was indicted for his role in the January 6th insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. We won't know more until the indictment is unsealed, but this is the indictment America and the world has been waiting for. Still, the work that I do, that online sleuths and reporters do, and that countless others do to hold accountable the people who physically committed illegal acts at the Capitol on that dark day will and must continue.      This next case is a perfect example of why. Michael Marroquin of Texas is the man behind the cell phone video that went viral soon after the events of that day, a man who shouted "traitors" at officers who had their weapons drawn in desperation as they tried to defend the citadel of democracy from a violent mob. The image below, taken from that cell phone video, is striking enough. The timeline also shows that many more of these cases will be filed. Marroquin was turned in by a loved one on Januar

A Judge Gave Oath Keepers Seditionists A Slap on the Wrist. Here's Why the DOJ Could Successfully Change That.

Judge Amit P. Mehta      Judge Amit Mehta is a relatively uninspiring judge, an immigrant from India who spent the brunt of his career practicing corporate law and who was appointed to the D.C. District Court by President Barack Obama in 2014, enjoying bipartisan support for his confirmation. He seemed to recognize the historic nature of his presiding over the Oath Keepers case and openly called Stewart Rhodes a threat to democracy after Rhodes gave a speech at his sentencing continuing his narrative that he is some modern American version of Nelson Mandela. All seemed to be going well at sentencing as Judge Mehta announced that the guidelines in Stewart Rhodes' case would be 21 to 27 years in prison, exactly in line with the 25 years the Justice Department had asked for. Then, Mehta sentenced Stewart Rhodes to 18 years in prison, well below the sentencing guidelines.       Stewart Rhodes, Judge Mehta said, was a threat to American democracy, an organizer and a terrorist who had en

Texas Man Sentenced to Prison for Battling Cops on January 6th Begs for Money to "Stop Babies from Doing Drugs" in Bizarre Video

     Just looking at the screenshot I took of the video you probably clicked here to read about, I'm sure you can tell this is going to be a wild one. I'm also sure you can tell what an absolute gem of a human being Joshua Lollar is. He was one of the earlier as well as one of the more interesting January 6th cases. An Army veteran who served in Iraq from 2001 to 2007, Lollar drove from Texas to Arlington, Virginia, with an AR-15, which he ultimately left at his hotel before heading to Washington, D.C. Wearing a bulletproof vest, a gas mask, and other tactical gear, he made his way into the Capitol rotunda and battled cops. Prosecutors described him as a "Weebles Wobble" toy, wobbling but not falling down as he was pepper sprayed but continued to push against a line of police officers. Lollar posted during the insurrection and after both text and video bragging about his involvement in the violence that took that day.      Released on a $50,000 bond, Lollar initially
