"Nick Quested, a British documentary filmmaker who was embedded with the Proud Boys on Jan. 6 and the night before, testified that he saw the far-right group’s leader, Enrique Tarrio, meet in a parking lot on Jan. 5 with Stewart Rhodes, the leader of another extremist group, the Oath Keepers. Quested was unable to hear what the two men were saying.
The next morning, Quested said he met up with the Proud Boys again at the National Mall. Instead of walking toward the Ellipse, where then-President Donald Trump was holding a rally, the contingent of “a couple of hundred Proud Boys” marched toward the Capitol around 10:30 a.m., before Trump had spoken, the filmmaker said.
“I was confused to a certain extent why we were walking away from the president's speech because that's what I felt we were there to cover,” Quested testified."
-----------------------
In other words, the Proud Boys (and Oath Keepers) didn't need to listen to Donald Trump...that's not why they were at the Capitol on Jan. 6th...they knew what their job was...Storm the Capitol and stop the peaceful transition of power.
This was no rally that got out of hand...this insurrection was a pre-planned coup with the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers at the tip of the spear...
