| The DOJ had total surveillance on the Jan 6 militias.  That evidence proved the militias were there for defensive purposes. 
 Included within discovery for every Rhodes and Crowl defendant are their text messages, Facebook
 messages,    phone records, encrypted chats, etc. Literally tens of thousands of    private communications within the Oath Keepers organization have been    provided, including encrypted messages specifically addressing    preparations for J6. Additionally, multiple 302s, witness statements,    un-Mirandized statements, etc. from multiple Oath Keeper-related    witnesses and defendants have been reviewed. At least 20 FBI and ATF   assets were embedded around the Capitol on J6. Additionally, discovery   proves that the Oath Keepers were being monitored and recorded prior to   J6.
 
 Yet,  to this day, defense counsel have not found one iota  of  proof that the  Rhodes or Crowl defendants had any plan, intention,   design, or scheme to  specifically enter the Capitol Building on J6.  And  every scrap of  evidence reviewed  confirms that the “QRFs” were  intended as rescue forces in the event  that  the Oath Keepers were  attacked by Antifa or a similar contingency,  and  not to attack the  Capitol Building.
