Stewart Rhodes, the deranged leader of the far-right Sturmabteilung-like group the "Oath Keepers," was charged over a week ago with seditious conspiracy for his role in organizing his thuggish group to storm the Capitol on January 6. Yesterday, he was denied release on bond by a Federal judge in Texas. The judge's decision was based in part on evidence from Rhodes' estranged wife that he had dug "escape tunnels" in his rental house's back yard.
"Rental house?" Apparently Rhodes' landlord was sympathetic to him, according to tweets from Rhodes' estranged wife Tasha Adams. Adams also tweeted out pictures of the sadsack in his hidey hole, writing,
"Folks if you ever feel tempted to rent a backhoe and dig escape tunnels in the backyard of your rental house, keep in mind it may come back to haunt you if you later attempt to overthrow the US government."
Despite her poor judgement in marrying the loser, we credit Ms. Adams for siding against her former husband and all MAGA insurrectionist morons and with democracy and the law. Thanks in part to her, Rhodes will stay locked up pending his trial.
