Why did the Government need a false flag Event to kidnap Gretchen Witchmer? Why did they need a false flag Event on January 6 (with agent provocateurs entering the building even before the Trump supporters arrived)?
That's not an answer.
They're going to forcibly lockdown the whole country, brutally suppress dissent and turn blue states into police states. In the process they'll demonstrate they have all the power they need and also alienate the entire populace.
Why bother with a false flag anything? What more could they do after they engineered one?
