"The Oath Keepers are an anti-government extremist group whose members were deeply tied to the violent riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6. The leader of the organization, Stewart Rhodes, has been charged with seditious conspiracy and he spoke of "Civil War" prior to the day's events. Another 10 Oath Keepers, including one from Arizona, are also facing charges for seditious conspiracy and other crimes.
"Finchem declared his membership in the Oath Keepers in a 2014 candidate questionnaire, writing that he was an 'Oath Keeper committed to the exercise of limited, constitutional governance.'"
