I should also add that if you’re asking me which defendant will “flip” I’m going with CROWL and WATKINS. Based on their docket activity they are repressed by a Fed Pub Def - unlike Caldwell. Watkins appears to be the nexus and if she gets wind that Caldwell is leaving her out to dry - that is convincing motivation for her to “flip” and become a cooperating witness. To be clear there’s nothing in the public docket that supports my assertion- so that’s me making an educated guess. Either way I’d watch both Watkins & Crowl’s dockets because the request to delay a Detention & Preliminary hearing does raise the specter of who’s gonna flip on who... for example in the PEZZOLA case, last week prosecutors disclosed they “now” have a cooperating witness. (bolo for a follow up on PEZZOLA in the coming days)

Seems like a good ole’ roll em’ up conspiracy case. First indict the small fish on conspiracy (evidence in the indictments seems pretty air tight) then go after the big fish. It’s not like the Oath Keepers weren’t walking around protecting Roger Stone. And what’s this now about Watkins “...was given a VIP pass to the rally. She met with Secret Service agents.” https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/21/politics/oath-keepers-vip-security-capitol-riot/index.html

Speaking of which there’s some weirdness going on with Gold & Strand’s dockets-an errata (which is semi normal) but there appears to be some messiness

USAO- sub of counsel (which is normal)👇🏻

Gold’s conditions of Release 2/16/2021 👇🏻- which is less than normal because of the delay in the Order - my gut says did Strand turn on Gold or vice-versa because the parties all agreed to a delay in the preliminary hearing and that is sometimes a sign the defendants are working on a Plea Deal...

So, Gold’s arraignment is 2/25. What’s happening on 3/5? This is confusing to me. The comment below BTW was meant to be left on the Oath Keepers conspiracy superseding indictment. I read all the documents you posted. I’m ready for the “persons known and unknown” part to be released.

So, they weren't just a bunch of yahoos waving flags and firing guns into the night. It looks like there were some very organized, well trained beasts on this mission
