Parler clearly appeared to have been the “go to” social media platform for QANON-MAGA-Trump. These individuals (virtually) congregated, shared plans, cross-communiques between various Proud Boy chapters and more than likely radicalized other Americans. perhaps this article will assist you in tying a few threads together].Trifecta Proud Boys - indicted;
Jessica Marie Watkins, Donovan Ray Crowl and Thomas Caldwell
January 27, 2020 DOJ-OPA issued a Press Release announcing the indictment, the press release states in part;
communications and coordination in November 2020 and continued through on or about Jan. 19, 2021;
Dec. 31, 2020, Caldwell posted, “THIS IS OUR CALL TO ACTION, FREINDS! SEE YOU ON THE 6TH IN WASHINGTON, D.C. ALONG WITH 2 MILLION OTHER LIKE-MINDED PATRIOTS.”
Jan. 2, 2021, Caldwell stated, “It begins for real Jan 5 and 6 on Washington D.C. when we mobilize in the streets. Let them try to certify some crud on capitol hill with a million or more patriots in the streets. This kettle is set to boil…”
Caldwell posted messages on Facebook such as, “We are surging forward. Doors breached[.]” and at 3:05 p.m. posted just, “Inside.” Watkins posted photos of herself, and with Crowl, on her Parler account and captioned a photo by stating, “Me before forcing entry into the Capitol Building. #stopthesteal2 #stormthecapitol #oathkeepers #ohiomilitia.”
FBI obtained an audio recording of Zello communications between Watkins and other suspected Oath Keepers during the Capitol incursion on a channel called “Stop the Steal J6.” As alleged in the indictment, in one transmission Watkins stated, “We have a good group. We have about 30-40 of us.

The Government also argued that they had obtained evidence that the Defendant and his co-conspirators continued to communicate with each other; before, during and after the Insurrection. Prosecutors further alleged that the defendants took numerous efforts to delete numerous Facebook Messenger discussions, deleted post and sought to move online communications to an encrypted application. For example;
January 1, the defendant sent a Facebook message to one of his co-defendants recommending a room at the Comfort Inn in Boston for January 5 through January 7 and wrote: "This is a good location and would allow us to hunt at night if we wanted to."
Towards the end of the January 19, 2021 detention hearing the Court stated with concise precision the magnitude and seriousness of Caldwell and his co-conspirators actions, leading up to the insurrection (recruitment of new Proud Boy members) and the raw lawlessness by each Defendant- arguably amplified in the context of a force multiplier as the group grew:
“The affidavit details quite a lot of activity to recruit people and travel to -- organize and travel to the District of Columbia to thwart the certification of the lawfully elected President of the United States…. is pure lawlessness and contempt for laws of this country…counts of a very serious matter”
Again keep in mind that the January 19, 2021 heating was before a Federal Magistrate Judge
It is a crime of the utmost serious because it threatens our very -- very foundations of our country… shows serious contempt for the laws of this country… it's hard to imagine that someone who it's alleged that's engaged in that conduct… would adhere to conditions of release that a magistrate judge would issue. So I think there's a serious risk of obstruction of justice.
February 8, 2021 filed: MOTION for Bond (ECF/PACER or via my Public Drive) by THOMAS EDWARD CALDWELL. And Exhibit 1, Rule 5 (certified) Hearing Transcript (ECF/PACER or via my public drive)
In CALDWELL’s Feb 8th Filing, he disclosed; he has held a Top Secret Clearance since 1979, which require an extensive “special background investigation” and that in the State of Virginia most Traffic infraction are not considered criminal1 (see page 20, lines 8 thru 20 of the Jan 19th, certified hearing transcript)
February 11, 2021 the Government filed their memorandum in opposition of Defendant Thomas Edward Caldwell’s Motion for Review of Detention Order and Motion for Release (ECF/PACER or via my public drive )
And right there on page 15, Prosectors disclosed that Federal Law Enforcement executed a search warrant on Caldwell’s home and found a “death list” which was handwritten and had the names of numerous State Election officials from another state (remember Caldwell is a Virginia resident)- they also recovered a flag that had a number of signatures written in black marker. Including signatures of “what appear to be ‘DON CROWL” and “Jessica M. Watkins” under the words “OHIO Regulars
Prosecutors also disclosed that in the execution of the search warrant on Caldwell’s home; “law enforcement discovered sales invoices for over $750 worth of various types of live ammunition and what appears to be a concealed firearm intentionally built to look like a cell phone, sold by “Ideal Conceal Cellphone Pistol.”
To save you money and time, I’ve taken the liberty of creating a public folder entitled Criminal Case as to Watkins, CROWL and Caldwell, which includes the criminal complaint and other various court filings. Thus so far I think I saved you about $17.50 by uploading the court filings to me public drive. After all sharing is caring

and for now you should be caught up…
Traffic infractions are violations of public order as defined in § 46.2-100 and not deemed to be criminal in nature. These infractions only become criminal if you fail to pay your ticket on time or fail to appear in court, then yes traffic infraction are criminal but getting a speeding ticket (unless it’s a DUI and/or reckless driving) are not considered criminal in Virginia courts… who’s going to tell Troll-Spouse-Cheating Voldemort <snort>
Thanks. Please keep it coming. It is all so unbelievable- Their actions with such indignant impunity. Completely enabled by prior admin. It is just disgusting. And they need a whole overhaul of this clearance system. So many in the sphere not deserving of the clearance. The list goes on and on.
