"The group’s members have served as security for Trump adviser Roger Stone, and Rhodes was in an encrypted chat group with Stone and Michael Flynn, Trump’s former national security adviser, in the days before the Capitol attack. (Trump pardoned Flynn and Stone, who were major players in his effort to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, before he left office.)

Van Tatenhove said that “the fact that the president was communicating, whether directly or indirectly messaging” with Rhodes before the insurrection, “kind of gave him the nod.”"
