Six men charged in alleged plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer
At a meeting, the men discussed attacking a Michigan State Police facility, and in a separate conversation one defendant suggested shooting up the governor’s vacation home, authorities allege.
Six men are under arrest for “conspiring to kidnap” Michigan’s Democratic governor, Gretchen Whitmer, from her vacation home before the November election, federal authorities said Thursday.
The arrests grew out of an FBI investigation begun in March into militia groups’ discussing the “violent overthrow” of certain government and law enforcement officials, and each of the men faces up to life in prison if convicted of the federal charges, authorities said.
Michigan State Attorney General Dana Nessel also announced at a news conference with federal officials Thursday an additional, preliminary 19 state felony charges “pursuant to the Michigan anti-terrorism act” against seven individuals, all now in custody, linked to the militia group, “Wolverine Watchmen.”
“The individuals in custody are suspected to have attempted to identify the home addresses of law enforcement officers in order to target them, made threats of violence intended to instigate a civil war, and engaged in planning and training for an operation to attack the capitol building of Michigan and to kidnap government officials, including the governor of Michigan,” Nessel said in a news release.
“There has been a disturbing increase in anti-government rhetoric and the re-emergence of groups that embrace extremist ideologies,” Nessel said. “These groups often seek to recruit new members by seizing on a moment of civil unrest and using it to advance their agenda of self-reliance and armed resistance. This is more than just political disagreement or passionate advocacy, some of these groups’ mission is simply to create chaos and inflict harm upon others.”
The six suspects in the alleged kidnapping plot used encrypted messaging to communicate about the plot, conducted coordinated surveillance on the governor’s vacation home and detonated an improvised explosive device wrapped with shrapnel, officials said.”
And yet, there are those with the accutron of Cognitive Dissonance to disregard this, a coup in America hatched by The White Supremacists of The Donald Trump’s base on how a Democratic Governor handled the Coronavirus differently from Trump!
” Stand Back, Stand Down he said — And they DID JUST THAT!
