Jason Van Tatenhove

Former Oath Keepers Spokesman

Colorado Switchblade


Jason Van Tatenhove, raised by artists and computer programmers, gravitated toward Colorado's punk and grunge scenes. His literary hero was Hunter S. Thompson, and when he had a chance to embed with the most infamous militia of our day, he jumped at the opportunity, wanting to write his own Hell’s Angels. He created the Colorado Switchblade, a regional news outlet that includes writing and podcasting. Now a frequent guest on CNN, MSNBC, and others, he was a key witness during the televised hearings of the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol.
