MAGA extremists embrace violent rhetoric ahead of midterms; Oath Keepers leader on trial for seditious conspiracy
Katie Phang hosts "The Beat" on Wednesday, October 5 and reports on a New York Times story that shows online mentions of "civil war," apparently "ignited by the Mar-A-Lago search," have spiked 3000% on Twitter ahead of the midterms. Plus, newly released audio evidence of Oath Keepers Leader Stewart Rhodes indicates he said his "only regret" was the group "should have brought rifles" on Jan. 6. Fordham political science professor Christina Greer and Guardian Reporter Hugo Lowell join, as well as Congressional candidate Adam Frisch.
