Six men were charged in Michigan Thursday for allegedly plotting to abduct and kill Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, as well as other political figures.

In early 2020, the FBI became aware through social media that a group of individuals were discussing the violent overthrow of certain government and law-enforcement components, according to the criminal complaint obtained by Fox News.

Among those individuals identified were Barry Croft and Adam Fox. Through electronic communications, Croft and Fox agreed to unite others in their cause and take violent action against multiple state governments that they believe are violating the U.S. Constitution.

Whoops sorry searched for Whitmer and came up with nothing.

Did they plot to take down Morton Downey Whitmer in an airport bathroom and paint a swastika on her face?

I smell shite.

[euram]

how much did the Media/Dem Party pay them to come up with this scheme?

[cuban leaf]

Must be one of those “tree of liberty” things...

My solution to the problem was simply to move from Seattle to rural KY.

[McGavin999]

How many of them were FBI agents?

Read the details at the other thread. This was the gang that couldn’t shoot straight.

They held a meeting. Took everyone’s cell phone so it could not be monitored. But....did not bother to pat down the FBI guy who was wearing a wire.

Different source, different reporting. Yeah, search has left me hanging many times.

It’s funny how the FBI is right there when it’s a clique of nutsos associated with the Right. It’s almost prescient. Like the FBI is setting it up. Very strange.

Yet thousands of violent lefties can arrange medics and radio comms and uniforms and pyrotechnics illegal in those jurisdictions with millions in funding from a proven ex-Nazi and yet the FBI is totally clueless about it all.

Weird, huh?

“Tree of Liberty” things are going to need much smarter people.

How hard would it be to capture TEN THOUSAND such plotters in Portland, Seattle, Milwaukee, Waukesha, Louisville, Philadelphia, NYC, et al?

They are going to throw the book at these guys for PLOTTING TO OVERTHROW...

...but what about throwing the book at those who are actually EXECUTING THE VIOLENT OVERTHROW the past five months?

Just to make sure we aren't showing favorites, how about throwing the book at Brennan, Clapper, Clinton, Strzok, Obama, Comey, et al for their plotting and executing their overthrow?

>abduct and kill

Overly complicated plan.

[William Tell]

Thirteen men meet. Six are charged. What do you want to bet that the other seven are undercover agents?

Anybody who plans a crime using phones or the internet is a moron. Don’t these people watch TV?

And why are they not doing that with the antifa revolutionary commies?

Yes, but they are a bit more prudent regarding when it is time to actually pull the trigger on such stuff. We no longer live in a world where people can even entertain this sort of nonsense. The only violence that is justified is self defense. The rioters and looters haven’t figured that out yet.

The only way for two people to keep a secret is for one of them to be dead.

Overly complicated plan.

True dat. Kidnap somebody and a million things immediately start to go wrong (gotta feed them, keep them quiet, deal with unknown medical issues, attempts to find and rescue, escape, etc).

It's tough and risky for someone like the Mossad that does it all the time. For a group of amateurs, no way.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Excellent question.

Likely answer “because Wray does not believe that ANTIFA really exists”.
