Opinion from elviadiaz1: We've long known that Sen. Wendy Rogers is an Oath Keeper. What's scary is how many law enforcement officers are connected to the extremist group.
more than 370 people believed to be working in law enforcement agencies, including police chiefs and sheriffs., appears on the list. So does an unidentified former member of the Gilbert Police Department who offered to help and who described his skills as “recon Marine, police trainer/supervisor.”“I am currently the Patrol Bureau Commander for the Yuma County Sheriff’s Office in Arizona. We have 85 sworn officers and Border Mexico on the South and California on the West.
ADL and others have documented the group’s conspiracy theories and activities, including members’ involvement in the U.S. Capitol insurrection. Oath Keepers drew its name from the fact that members are asked to defend the U.S. Constitution “against all enemies, foreign and domestic,” according to various media reports.
But the fact that so many officers are drawn to extracurricular militia activities casts wider distrust of the men and women who swore to protect the public, not work to overthrow the government.
