Oath Keepers boss told followers before Capitol riot that Trump 'wants us to make it WILD,' court document says
The self-described leader of the Florida chapter of the far-right Oath Keepers extremist group urged followers to travel to Washington with him on Jan. 6 because „Trump said It’s gonna be wild!!!!!!“ that day, court documents released Friday revealed.
„He wants us to make it WILD that’s what he’s saying,“ Oath Keepers chief Kelly Meggs wrote in a Facebook message.
That message is detailed in a new superseding indictment charging him and five other Oath Keepers associates with crimes related to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot by thousands of Trump supporters.
„He called us all to the Capitol and wants us to make it wild!!! Sir Yes Sir!!!,“ Meggs wrote, according to the indictment filed in U.S. District Court in Washington, which accuses the defendants of invading the Capitol complex.
