Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.Steinberg Groove Agent expert Mark Struthers returns with “Groove Agent 4 Explained”, a series packed full of great information to help you get the most out of this exciting percussive tool. All of this, of course, trying to poke holes in the government's case. An attorney for another defendant, Thomas Caldwell, used his questioning to try to suggest that the FBI rushed to open an investigation into Caldwell, even portraying him as a senior Oath Keeper leader when he wasn't. And Agent Palian testified that the Oath Keepers didn't do anything illegal at those. LUCAS: So Rhodes's attorney, Philip Linder, pointed out that the Oath Keepers attended pro-Trump rallies in Washington, D.C., in November and December. And this gets back to questions about how the FBI and other law enforcement handled or, as critics would say, mishandled or ignored tips ahead of time that could have helped prevent the attack on the Capitol on January 6. It wasn't until March of 2021, so weeks after the Capitol attack, when the tipster contacted the FBI for a second time that the FBI responded. And Palian said the FBI didn't respond to the tipster at that time. The first time was on November 20, 2020, so some six weeks before the January 6 attack on the Capitol. Palian said the tipster reached out to the FBI twice, actually. Do we know details on that, like, when that happened? I want to follow up on something you just said, that a tipster provided a recording, a part of the call to the FBI. And in the recording, Rhodes says the Insurrection Act would provide the Oath Keepers with legal cover for their actions, urged people on the call also to be disciplined in their communications to avoid getting charged with conspiracy. And on the call, Rhodes also mentions the Insurrection Act, which he said Trump could have invoked to call up militias to support him. He talks about the need to show Trump that the people, Rhodes says, supported him, that they were willing to fight. And on that recording, Rhodes talks about how he believes the election was stolen. Prosecutors played some of it for the jury today. A tipster provided the FBI a recording of part of that call. ![]() And on that call, Rhodes talks about what the Oath Keepers should do now that Biden has been declared the winner. LUCAS: So Palian also testified about a conference call that Rhodes had on November 9 with around a hundred Oath Keepers, including several co-conspirators in this case. What other ground did the FBI agent cover in his testimony? Trump has one last chance right now to stand, but he will need us and our rifles too." And on that day, Rhodes wrote to a Signal chat group, quote, "the final defense is us and our rifles. And that included a message Rhodes sent on November 7, 2020, the day that most media called the election for Joe Biden. LUCAS: So prosecutors used Palian and to start laying the foundation of this case for the jury, and that means introducing text messages and audio recordings - in this case, from November 2020, so the early days of what the Justice Department says was this conspiracy. ![]() He took the stand yesterday, and his testimony continued all day today. And then he became one of the lead agents in the Oath Keepers investigation. He later escorted them back to the Senate. He was at the Capitol on January 6, guarding senators in hiding. The first witness they called was FBI Special Agent Michael Palian. And in their opening statement yesterday, the government argued that the defendants concocted a plan for what the government called an armed rebellion to derail that transfer of power. RYAN LUCAS, BYLINE: Well, Rhodes and the other defendants are accused of plotting to use force to block the transfer of presidential power to Joe Biden. And, Ryan, how has the government begun to build its case? NPR justice correspondent Ryan Lucas is back today at the courthouse. Reminder, this is the most significant Capitol riot trial so far. Staying with the courts, today was the second day of testimony in the January 6 seditious conspiracy trial against Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes and four others with ties to that far right group. ![]()
