The only people pushing to do something big before Election Day resided in the J. Edgar Hoover Building in Washington, D.C.
On October 8, 2020, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer announced shocking news: federal authorities had arrested several men for conspiring to kidnap and possibly kill her before Election Day. After indulging in a moment of self-pity, Whitmer quickly pinned the blame on President Trump, a man with whom Whitmer had engaged in a very public feud throughout 2020 over pandemic-related lockdowns.
Trump, Whitmer claimed, fueled the rage of alleged white supremacists and right-wing militias responsible for the dastardly abduction plot. “When our leaders meet with, encourage, or fraternize with domestic terrorists, they legitimze their actions,” Whitmer said in a televised speech. “And they are complicit.”
Earlier that day, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, also a Democrat, and officials from the U.S. Department of Justice detailed the charges in a separate press conference. “Last night, the FBI and Michigan State Police arrested six individuals charged in a criminal complaint with conspiring to kidnap the governor of Michigan, Gretchen Whitmer,” explained Andrew Birge, assistant U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Michigan. The defendants, Birge claimed, plotted to kidnap Whitmer from her vacation cottage “before the November election.”
His office took the lead in prosecuting the six defendants, who also faced weapons of mass destruction charges.
Exactly 18 months to the day, Birge’s prosecutors suffered a humiliating defeat in a Grand Rapids courtroom after a jury acquitted two of the men and deadlocked on the guilt of two others. (Two defendants pleaded guilty and testified for the government during the three-week trial). Despite endless resources and favorable rulings by the judge overseeing the case, the government failed to secure a single conviction in what the Justice Department considered one of its largest

Who is watching the watchers?
I recall a senator from Alaska (Stevens?) running for re-election indicted by the dems a week before election day. He lost of course. Charges were laughed out of court a few months later.
Whitmer didn’t kidnap herself.
Or maybe she did.
Whitmer has no credibility
Well, maybe our government and their media lied in Michigan, but they WOULD NEVER LIE about Ukraine...
Michigan residents need to wake up. Let’s hope and pray she gets voted out of office.
After Hillary’s FBI files, email server and Foundation plus Russian collusion, I do not need to see evidence that Jan 6 was staged by the FBI.
They are guilty until proven otherwise
Lots of dirty hands in Michigan.
Nah, Michiganlanders like to be ruled over by powerful woman. Remember Granholm?
“Without suffering any consequences for propagating the Russiagate hoax, the FBI clearly felt emboldened in 2020 to accelerate its election interference chicanery. And if there are no consequences for this egregious operation, Americans can be sure the FBI will try it again soon—like this November.”
I remember that. Democrats old bag of tricks.
Did Whitler know it was all a scam? I’m thinking - yes.
The FBI makes the KGB look like childs play.
Are you blind?!
Jack Posobiec posted that the person in charge of the Michigan FBI during this fiasco was transferred to the Washington DC office right before January 6th.
We are....and it sickens me that they can get away with it ... the FBI CIA DOJ MSM and a majority of our elected officials and brainwashed voters are all complicit in Obama's plot to “Fundamentally change America right before our very eyes...” ....
No worries. The networks will put up some more FBI hero-worship TV shows to keep what passes for “Americans” these days fat, dumb, and happy.
