About the Course

In 2022, the United States House of Representatives select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol asked me to submit information about how the insurrection was financed. 

In response to this request, we created a report outlining how the attack was financed, focusing on three main groups: the Oath Keepers, the Proud Boys, and the Three Percenters. As part of this analysis, we included recommendations for countering the financing of insurrection, and provided a short comparative analysis with the financing of the Ottawa occupation.

Upon enrolling, you'll have access to the full, un-redacted report that we submitted to the Select Committee. You'll also have access to a webinar that I did on the report, focusing on a comparison between January 6th and the Ottawa occupation. 

After taking the course, you'll have insights into how far-right groups raise, use, move, store, manage, and obscure funds, as well as be able to describe and illustrate how the attack on the US capitol was financed.
