Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes has been found guilty of seditious conspiracy.
So was a local Oath Keeper chapter leader, Kelly Meggs. Others were found guilty of obstructing a government proceeding.
I guess now, when we refer to these people as traitors, we are simply being accurate. Not that it will mean much to those who still support what they did.
It is a sad day for all of us :shrug:
May he hang high :redmad:
Yep, higher than Haman, as they say:

HAMAN (Heb. הָמָן), son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, according to the *Scroll of Esther, an official in the court of Ahasuerus who was superior to all the king's other officials. Resentful of *Mordecai the Jew, who was the only one among the servants of the king in the royal court who would not bow down to him, Haman decided to exterminate all the Jews, "the people of Mordecai" (3:6). To determine the day of the destruction he cast a lot (pur), and then received the consent of the king to publish a royal decree throughout the entire Persian kingdom proclaiming the extermination. Through Mordecai, however, the news reached Esther, who immediately set about saving her people. She invited Haman and the king to feasts on two consecutive nights, and at the second feast revealed to the king, in Haman's presence, the evil designs that the latter harbored against her people. In his anger, the king ordered that Haman be hanged on "the tree which Haman has prepared for Mordecai" (Esth. 7:10), and that his hanging be followed by that of his sons. The king then issued a decree permitting the Jews "to gather and defend themselves" on the day that had been set aside for their extermination (Esth. 8:11). This decree and the victory of the Jews over their enemies were the reasons for the establishment of the holiday of *Purim.
Origin of the phrase and the meaning behind the yearly Jewish festival of Purim. On the day they were to be killed, God preserved the Jews. Hope indeed comes in the morning!!
