I hope today's hearing will answer this question,

[cilla4progress]

When tfg tweeted "big protest in DC on Jan. 6. Be there, will be wild."

Was this protest already planned by Oath Keepers, etc., or did this tweet initiate planning?

1. I would like to hear the plan for Jan 7

If the coup succeeded.

2. So... We know a bit about this...

I've not seen anything either the committee or the DOJ really have on this topic... I strongly suspect much more than is publicly available... For instance, we know DOJ has Tarrio's phone and phone records but we know nothing about what is on the phone. Same goes for Rhodes and some other PB/OK's. We also know they got Rudy's phone and Clarke's phone as well as their records but again... No word at this time what is on them. We can assume the phones and records do some connecting that is not public yet and that they may very well get/have other information off the phones that connect but I suspect that information is known only to DOJ at this time.

There is still a lot of information available publicly.. The best rundown of the timeline I've found is here:

It's a long but very interesting read... We know a lot publicly that is really not talked about so I suggest digging into it but... The short answer is it looks to have started online from tfg supporters around early September of 2020. Several places... On the same day... What a coincidence

3. The ones with the plan needed idiots for cover, and to keep police busy.

I am sure that it was planned well in advance (that will come out) and that the tweet was like Concord:

"The shit heard 'round the world"
