Line of events


During the first debate, Trump tells the Proud Boys and others to stand back and stand by.

Trump and his team plan a rally to occur on Jan 6 and encourage his supporters to attend so that they can "Stop the Steal". He tells them it "will be wild."

His supporters make plans to attend and plan to stop "standing back" so that they can "stop the steal."

They arrive in Washington and hear Brooks, Giuliani, Trump and others encouraging them to "fight" and "kick ass" and to march to the Capitol.

Many of them march to the Capitol and "fight" and "kick ass" so that they can disrupt the electoral vote counting and "stop the steal".

Seems pretty clear to me. The actions were imminent (he told them to walk down the street to the Capitol that very day), illegal (I think we can agree fighting and kicking ass are illegal), and were likely to result in such actions (there were already tons of security measures implemented due to the fear that the attendees were planning to riot).
