Glenn Kirschner: Will Oath Keepers convictions ultimately take down Roger Stone, Alex Jones, Mike Flynn and others?

November 30,2022

Now that a jury has convicted five members of the Oath Keepers organization, there may be a ripple effect. A second group of Oath Keepers is pending trial in a seditious conspiracy case, as is a batch of Proud Boys. In the wake of the recent seditious conspiracy guilty verdicts, those defendants pending trial undoubtedly are considering whether they should cut their losses, plead guilty, and cooperate with federal prosecutors.

If Oath Keepers and Proud Boys start cooperating, this spells real trouble for Trump loyalists Roger Stone, Alex Jones and Mike Flynn, given that those three men were close with members of the Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys.
