An Oath Keeper Talks Civil War Over Pastrami and Rye
Briefly

Jim Arroyo emphasizes the urgency of his training: "I'm training people to survive a civil war, to get out of the way, to stay home, stay off the grid, have enough supplies." He believes the election could trigger conflict similarly to historical violent uprisings internationally.
Reflecting on their motivations, Jim claims, "They want to take him out so that he can't get back in the White House," indicating a belief in a conspiracy against Trump that fuels his and his team's preparations.
The couple's organization, a byproduct of their post-January 6 experiences, operates under the assumption that threats of civil unrest can come from various scenarios, as Arroyo states: "We train for economic collapse, attacks on the electrical grid, civil unrest and World War."
