THE
THE CONTACT INFORMATION YOU SEE AT THE BOTTOM OF YOUR SCREEN
AND USE THAT HASHTAG HEYDAN.
LET'S >> GET STARTED AND WE'RE
GOING TO TALK BIG STORY
RIGHT OFF THE BAT HERE AND TWO
MORE LOCAL PEOPLE IN TROUBLE
OVER THE INSURRECTION AT THE US
CAPITOL.
CAPITOL.
CAPITOL. NOW WE HAVE TOLD YOU THESE
TYPES OF STORIES BEFORE BUT BUT
THESE GUYS ARE DIFFERENT FOR A
FEW REASONS.
FEW REASONS. ONE, THEY'RE BROTHERS FROM
OREGON.
OREGON.
OREGON. TWO, THEY WERE ACTUALLY CHARGED
NOT JUST INVESTIGATED OR
ACCUSED OR ARRESTED
AND RELEASED BUT FORMALLY
CHARGED BY THE FEDS AND THREE
THEY'RE MEMBERS OF A FAR
RIGHT EXTREMIST GROUP I'M SURE
YOU'VE HEARD OF CHRISTINE
SEVERANE EXPLAINS WHY THAT'S
IMPORTANT TO THE CRIMINAL CASE
AGAINST THEM >> AMONG THE
THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO BREACH
THE CAPITOL JANURARY SIX WERE
TWO SELF-PROCLAIMED TO MEMBERS
OF THE PROUD BOYS FROM MORGAN
BROTHERS 24 YEAR OLD MATTHEW
KLEIN OF SHERWOOD AND 21 YEAR
OLD JONATHANPETER KLEIN
OF HEPPNER WERE ARRESTED ON
CONSPIRACY AND OBSTRUCTION
CHARGES FOR THEIR ROLE IN THE
CAPITAL ATTACK.
CAPITAL ATTACK. THE PROUD BOYS ARE
SELF-DESCRIBED WESTERN
SELF-DESCRIBED WESTERN CHAUVINISTS WHO DENY ANY
CONNECTION TO THE
RIGHT PICTURES IN COURT
DOCUMENTS SHOW MATTHEW KLEIN
ALLEGEDLY BREACHED A WALL AT
THE CAPITOL AND HELPED OTHERS
TO DO THE SAME.
PICTURES ALSO SHOW THE KLEINS
ENTERING THE CAPITOL
AND PUSHING THROUGH LAW
ENFORCEMENT.
ENFORCEMENT. THEY'RE ACCUSED OF LEAVING THE
BUILDING AND THEN WRENCHING
OPEN A SECURE DOOR TO GO BACK
INSIDE, FORCING POLICE OFFICERS
TO FEND OFF THE BROTHERS
AND ANOTHER WAVE OF RIDERS >>.
I THINK IT'S SIGNIFICANT FOR A
NUMBER OF DIFFERENT REASONS.
ALEXANDER ROSS IS A PROFESSOR
AT PORTLAND STATE UNIVERSITY.
HE HAS STUDIED RADICAL GROUPS.
HIS >> BROTHERS ACTUALLY HAVE
VIOLENT RECORDS AND PORTLAND
AND SALEM.
AND SALEM. RIGHT .
RIGHT .
RIGHT . SO THEY PRETTY MUCH MATCH A
PROFILE OF A VERY VIOLENT
RIGHT WING COUNTER PROTESTER OR
ADVANCED SORT OF INSURGENTS IN
THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST >>.
THIS IS VIDEO OF JONATHANPETER
KLEIN AT A RALLY ON SEPTEMBER
7TH IN SALEM.
HE'S IN THE SHIRT WITH THE
ORANGE SLEEVES CHASING A BLACK
LIVES MATTER.
LIVES MATTER. PROTESTER MATTHEW KLEIN >> WAS
CITED FOR HAVING A FIREARM IN
PUBLIC A FEW WEEKS LATER AFTER
A PROUD BOYS RALLY IN PORTLAND
.
.
. POLICE
. POLICE SAY THEY FOUND SHEILDS
BASEBALL BATS PAINTBALL GUNS
AND KLEIN'S LOADED NINE
MILLIMETER IN THE TRUCK.
HE WAS WHY >> IS IT A BIG DEAL
THAT THESE TWO BROTHERS WERE
ARRESTED WHO CLAIM TO BE
COWBOYS >>?
COWBOYS >>? YEAH, I MEAN WHAT WE'RE SEEING
IS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT BUILD
A CASE AROUND THE JANURARY SIX
INSURGENT SARGENTS THAT IT'S
LOOKING LIKE A LARGER
CONSPIRACY AND THIS BY THE WAY,
HOW THE WAS BROUGHT DOWN IN
THE 70S UNDER OUR FIRST
ANTI-TERRORISM LAWS IN THIS
COUNTRY LOOKING AT CONSPIRACIES
AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT AND SO
THEY ARE CONNECTING THE DOTS >>
ACCORDING TO FEDERAL COURT
DOCUMENTS FILED THIS WEEK.
ANOTHER RIGHT WING GROUP, OATH
KEEPERS ALLEGEDLY COMMUNICATED
WITH THE COWBOYS BEFORE THE
ATTACK ON THE CAPITOL IN THOSE
DOCUMENTS.
DOCUMENTS. OATH KEEPERS LEADER KELLY MEGGS
WROTE THIS WEEK I ORGANIZED AN
ALLIANCE BETWEEN OATH KEEPERS
FLORIDA THREE PERCENTERS
AND COWBOYS QUOTE WE HAVE
DECIDED TO WORK TOGETHER
AND SHUT THIS EXPLETIVE DOWN
AND THAT KELLY
ORCHESTRATED A PLAN WITH THE COWBOYS FOR
JANUARY 6TH.
JANUARY 6TH. WHY IS THAT SIGNIFICANT THAT
THESE DIFFERENT GROUPS YOU
KNOW, ARE ALLEGED TO HAVE
COMMUNICATED BEFORE THE ATTACK
ON THE CAPITOL?
IT REALLY VERIFIES A LOT
OF WHAT PEOPLE WERE THINKING
GOING INTO THIS THAT THE CROWD
STARTED OU AS SORT OF LIKE AN
ATTEMPT TO CREATE THIS URBAN
SABALLY ALMOST FASHIONABLE
RIGHT WING FIGHT CLUB
AND INCREASINGLY OVER THE YEARS
THEY BECAME MORE AND MORE
MILITARIZED AND SORT OF STARTED
FUZING WITH MORE PARAMILITARY
RURAL GROUPS AND SO THEY'RE
SORT OF HYBRIDIZATION
AND ALLIANCE WITH THE OATH
KEEPERS REALLY INDICATES THE
EXTENT TO WHICH THIS MOVEMENT
HAD ACCUMULATED POWER
ORGANIZING CAPABILITIES AND A
SHARED IDEOLOGY >> IN A SENSE
WHEN TWO COWBOYS GET ARRESTED,
DOES THAT HELP OR HURT THEIR
MOVEMENT?
MOVEMENT?
MOVEMENT? YEAH, >> I MEAN THIS IS A
REALLY IMPORTANT QUESTION
BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO SEE THE
PROFILE OF THESE GROUPS RAISE
AS THEY GET MORE MEDIA
ATTENTION AND PEOPLE THAT ARE
ANGRY AT THE GOVERNMENT ARE
GOING TO SEEK THEM OUT.
WE KNOW FROM RESEARCH OUT
OF LONDON THAT OREGON ACTUALLY
LEADS IN SEARCHES FOR HOW TO
JOIN THE COWBOYS OF ANY STATE
IN THE WHOLE COUNTRY WHERE NO
ONE.
ONE.
ONE. AND
ONE. AND SO THERE IS
