Oathkeepers membership list hacked, released
2021-11-14
This has to be the biggest nothingburger since Marx invented the Communist Manifesto.

Cops and other government employees, almost everyone of whom have taken an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, always have been part of the membership base of Oathkeepers.

I only recently found out about the breach via Russian blogger Boris Rozhin (!), who appears to support the government against Oathkeepers.

Among the domestic enemies is the World Socialist Web Site, and New York City Public Radio.

[DailyDot] A hacker claims to have stolen and leaked reams of data from the Oath Keepers, the far-right militia group whose members were present at the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
More center-right, it seems to me — they want to conserve the current system as intended rather than replace it with something else.
The roughly 5GB of data, which was provided by the hacker to the journalist and transparency collective Distributed Denial of Secrets (DDoSecrets), contains everything from emails and internal chats to details on the organization’s members and donors.

Composed of current and former military and police who believe they are defending the U.S. Constitution against a tyrannical government, the Oath Keepers have become a focal point of the ongoing federal investigation into the Capitol riot after at least 19 members were charged for their alleged involvement.

The hack includes, among other things, the militia’s Rocket.Chat server, an open source communication platform where members coalesce. An older archive details messages made in June 2020 while a second cache shows messages sent from March 2021 up until Sept. 19.

Interesting to note how 19th Oath keepers are claimed to be 6th protesters also. Given the few have met over the years, I would have expected more.


Just Speculating....

But, does it seem Pelosi and the Bi-Dung DOJ are deliberately slowing the 6th trial dates down to push them into the 2022 Election year?

#1  Mom was in FBI in 40s and early 50s. She always told me never to sign membership in any organization or petition that could have the FBI or like see your name.
