Threatening to turn the media circus surrounding Kentucky court clerk Kim Davis鈥� ongoing fight with federal courts over her refusal to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples into something akin to the Bundy Ranch scene, Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes on Wednesday announced that he would be sending his troops to the scene in Grayson, Ky., to protect Davis from being arrested again by federal marshals.

鈥淲e have had boots on the ground there since last week and will continue to have a presence,鈥� an announcement at the Oath Keepers website said. It noted that Rhodes had 鈥渞eached out personally to Davis鈥檚 legal counsel to offer protection to Kim, to ensure that she will not be illegally detained again. We would like to stress in the strongest terms possible that we are doing this not because of her views on gay marriage, but because she is an elected public servant who has been illegally arrested and held without due process.鈥�

Davis was for refusing to obey a federal court order and detained on contempt-of-court charges. Judge David Bunning, who had ordered the arrest, , but required her to drop her refusal to issue same-sex marriage licenses in doing so.

However, Davis 鈥� who is 鈥� has subsequently insisted she will not issue such licenses. So a second arrest may well be imminent.

The Oath Keepers are hardly the only far-right extremists who have shown up to participate in the circus that has developed聽outside the Rowan County Courthouse in the past week. Renowned white supremacist over the weekend and offered a speech in support of Davis at a rally outside the jail where she was being held. So did Matt Heimbach, leader of the white-nationalist Traditionalist Youth Network.

Rhodes on Wednesday broadcast he had with his 鈥渂oots on the ground鈥� in Kentucky 鈥� notably, a 鈥渃onstitutionalist鈥� sheriff named Denny Peyman from Jackson County, KY.

Peyman told Rhodes: 鈥淚 think that it鈥檚 important that our presence be known there, because it鈥檚 not an issue of marriage, it鈥檚 not an issue of a lot of things they are trying to make the issue. The issue is still that a judge took an elected official, a citizen of the United States, and detained them without cause, without paperwork, and without due process. That is the situation.鈥�

Rhodes noted that the Oath Keepers originally headed to Kentucky to participate in a protest outside the home of Judge Bunning, but now were reconfiguring their plans to head to Grayson and provide a security detail for Davis.

Peyman sounded a threatening note in Bunning鈥檚 direction: 鈥淚 think the judge still needs to know that he鈥檚 not out of the woods just because they let her out. He鈥檚 still going to be held accountable.鈥�

Rhodes instructed Peyman and company to offer Davis鈥櫬爐eam the Oath Keepers鈥� protection. 鈥淥ffer her 鈥� if she wants聽 a close protection team, we will provide it,鈥� he said. 鈥淏ut regardless, people should consider her under our protection. We鈥檒l make sure that our people are keeping a close eye on the situation and we鈥檙e gonna have boots on the ground and mount a watch, regardless. We need this judge to understand that he鈥檚 not gonna be able to just go grab this lady whenever he feels like it.鈥�

The Oath Keepers 鈥� a 鈥淧atriot鈥� organization fueled by conspiracy theories about an imminent federal dictatorship 鈥� played a central role in turning the Bundy Ranch standoff with federal authorities into a near-shootout in April 2015, and have subsequently ordered their members into various 鈥渃alls to arms鈥� in Oregon and Montana, where they brought guns to the scene of what were essentially paper disputes over mining rights.

The Oath Keepers also have had a presence in Ferguson, Mo., during the upheaval of recent rioting and protests over police handling of black suspects. And they have also offered their 鈥減rotection鈥� to the nation鈥檚 military-recruitment centers with vigilante armed patrols outside them.

UPDATE: Kim Davis's legal team聽declined the聽Oath Keepers' offer to protect her against arrest, according dated September 11聽on the Oath Keepers website.
