I do hope Rhodes throws Tarrio under the bus, because Tarrio will throw Stone under the bus.

It’s unclear at this point just how important this meeting in a garage between Rhodes and Tarrio really was. As David Neiwert has documented extensively, the Oath Keepers were deeply involved in planning for the events of Jan. 6. That included setting up communications channels and storing caches of weapons near the city. Just before that meeting with Tarrio, Rhodes had made a purchase of over $10,000 of ammunition. That was just part of $40,000 on military equipment and ammo Rhodes acquired in the days before the assault.

Tarrio himself was not present at events on Jan. 6, but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t involved in planning, or that he didn’t want to be a part of those events.
