This wasn't some kind of spontaneous, you know, riot getting out of control or being people being swept away by emotion.

No, this was a plot conducted in advance, a use force to try to stop the peaceful transfer of power.

And I think, you know, this just highlights how premeditated it was.

That's January 6th committee member Adam Schiff, reacting to the guilty verdict in the seditious

conspiracy trial of two members of the oathkeepers.

We'll have much more about the conviction and possible punishment for the members of the far

right group.

That'll be just ahead.

Plus, the frontrunner to become the next Speaker of the House finally says something about Donald Trump's dinner with a white supremacist.

And on Capitol Hill, the House is expected to vote today on a controversial bill

to stop rail workers from striking.

We'll explain what's at stake and why President Biden is calling on Congress to take action.

Good morning and welcome to way too early on this Wednesday, November 30th.

I'm John Flemere. Thanks for starting your day with us. We'll begin with a federal jury reaching a verdict in the high-profile Oathkeeper's trial.

Oathkeepers founder, Stuart Rhodes, and the leader of the Florida chapter of the far-right group,

Kelly Meggs, were both found guilty yesterday of seditious conspiracy in connection with the

January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol. The seditious conspiracy charge carries a maximum

sentence of 20 years in prison. Roads' attorneys said they

plan to appeal the conviction. This is the most serious case to grow out of the Justice Department's

sprawling investigation into the U.S. Capitol insurrection. The trial lasted eight weeks,

with a jury deliberating for three days. Three other members of the group were found not guilty on the seditious conspiracy charge.

They include Jessica Watkins, Kenneth Harrelson, and Thomas Caldwell.
