The first defendant to plead guilty in the alleged scheme to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer will spend the next several years in jail. A judge last week sentenced Ty Garbin, 25, to 75 months in prison on one count of “conspiracy to kidnap.” His five co-defendants have pleaded not guilty; their trial is set to begin October 12.
The case made major headlines right before Election Day 2020 as early voting was underway in the crucial swing state. It was useful fodder for Democrats and Joe Biden.

One informant, who went by the code name “Thor,” was paid $24,000 and given a new car by the FBI for his services.
A bombshell report by Darren Beattie at Revolver News explained the FBI’s extensive role in orchestrating the most damning aspects of the kidnapping caper. “The plot’s ‘explosives expert,’ who the plotters were accused of planning to buy bombs from, turned out to be an FBI agent. The head of transportation for the militia outfit turned out to be an undercover FBI agent. The head of security for the militia outfit turned out to be an undercover FBI informant. At least two undercover FBI informants were active participants in the initial June 6, 2020 meeting in which the plot to storm Capitol buildings was allegedly hatched—meaning at least three FBI informants infiltrated before the conspiracy even started.”

As if they’re not doing it in the stock market too.
There was someone on Tucker Carlson making that comparison. That the FBI had either infiltrated OR started groups to ENTRAP people
Imagine if the few authentic domestic terrorists involved in the Whitmer plot had thought better of it, and dropped out. Would the FBI carry out the kidnapping anyway?
Oath Keepers and Proud Boys are chock-full of feds, too. That’s what the FBI does. The Whitmer thing was really obvious. 1/6 they obviously played a role in. That one could have easily gotten sideways on them.
There is absolutely no way any person would’ve ever got in the capital building without it all being preplanned
the dearth of whistleblowers is telling. not a single red blooded American in the bunch.
It was an orchestrated election issue designed to give Trump a black eye.
A story circulating around here in Michigan is that the “plot” started out simply as a plan to make a Citizen’s Arrest of Whitmer for her many crimes in dealing with COVID restrictions. It was these FBI “informants” who turned into a kidnapping.
