In a legal filing released Thursday, the Department of Justice (DOJ) describes the “premeditated” actions of Jessica Watkins, a leader of the Oath Keepers, a paramilitary group that considers the federal government has been “co-opted by shadowy conspiracy.” According to prosecutors, Watkins believed she was following Trump’s call to siege the Capitol and stop Congress’ certification of the 2020 election results. “As the inauguration grew nearer, Watkins indicated that she was awaiting direction from President Trump,” prosecutors wrote in the court filing....
