Rhodes is among roughly 900 people charged so far in connection with the attack on the US Capitol, the heart of American democracy.
On trial alongside Rhodes, of Granbury, Texas, was Kelly Meggs, leader of the Florida chapter of the Oath Keepers, and three others.
Rhodes, who was also convicted of obstructing an official proceeding, but acquitted of two other conspiracy charges, could be jailed for up to 20 years. In defending Rhodes, lawyers tried to prove his rhetoric was just bluster, and that the Oath Keepers had no plan before 6 January to attack the Capitol.
Testifying in his own defence, Rhodes said he had no idea his followers were going to storm the Capitol, adding that those who did were acting"stupid" and outside their mission.
