FBI Claims That Six "Right Wing Militia" Members Plotted to Kidnap Hideous Governor of Michigan Gretchen Whitmer

Wait -- so right-wing militias are not "just an idea" and can be investigated, infiltrated, and prosecuted?

Their real crime was not being leftwing. If they were leftwing, their violent plots would be Protected Speech.

So I'm going to call this Mostlyy Peaceful Plotting.

The FBI says it thwarted what it described as a plot to violently overthrow the government and kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. The alleged plot involved reaching out to members of a Michigan militia, according to a federal affidavit filed Thursday.

The court filing also alleges the conspirators twice conducted surveillance at Whitmer's personal vacation home and discussed kidnapping her to a "secure location" in Wisconsin to stand "trial" for treason prior to the Nov. 3 election.

"Several members talked about murdering 'tyrants' or 'taking' a sitting governor," an FBI agent wrote in the affidavit. "The group decided they needed to increase their numbers and encouraged each other to talk to their neighbors and spread their message."

This sounds like real Criminal Vaporware bullshit to me. This sounds like loudmouths talking about a lot of shit that was never going to happen.

Meanwhile, antifa and BLM plot arsons and assaults on cops every fucking day, and no one's prosecuting them.
