Hundreds of law enforcement officers, military members, and elected officials appeared on a leaked membership list of the Oath Keepers, a right-wing conspiracy group, according to a new report released Wednesday.
More than 370 people who work for law enforcement agencies, including top positions such as sheriffs or police chiefs, were identified as being members of the group at some point since its inception, according to an analysis by the Anti-Defamation League's Center on Extremism. The group examined the full list of 38,000 members and found more than 100 others are members of the military and at least 80 people are running for or have held office as of early August.
