Earlier this month, a member of the Proud Boys pleaded guilty to seditious conspiracy for his actions during the January 6th storming of the U.S. Capitol building. Andy Campbell, author of the new book We Are Proud Boys: How a Right-Wing Street Gang Ushered in a New Era of American Extremism, says that the group's influence will continue, no matter what happens in court.
Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes told jurors on Monday there was no plan for his band of extremists to attack the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, as he tries to clear his name in his seditious conspiracy trial.
