Militia group plan to kidnap Whitmer was part of attempt to start civil war: officials

The militia group whose members planned to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) was attempting to instigate a civil war through attacks on the state Capitol building and targeting police officers, officials said Thursday.

Members of the group, identified by Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel as the Wolverine Watchmen, are accused of crimes such as conducting surveillance outside of Whitmer’s vacation home, using code language and encrypted messages and putting a bomb under a bridge to distract police.

In total, 13 members were charged with felony crimes, including the six who were charged for the governor kidnapping plot, the Detroit Free Press reported.

Nessel described the members as “extremists” who were trying to gain members “by seizing on a moment of civil unrest" in the U.S.

“There has been a disturbing increase in anti-government rhetoric and the re-emergence of groups that embrace extremist ideologies,” Nessel said at a press conference. "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.”

Nessel’s announcement of charges against the seven additional members came after the FBI filed an affidavit on Thursday saying it stopped an attempt to abduct Whitmer in an alleged terror plot.

The six involved with the plans to kidnap Whitmer were charged with conspiracy to commit kidnapping. The affidavit named them as Adam Fox, Barry Croft, Ty Garbin, Kaleb Franks, Daniel Harris and Brandon Caserta.

As we can see by titsmer's and biteme's lies, it's a false flag in conjunction with the Democrat Main Sturmer Media to gin up violence.

Interestingly, in the original Detroit Free Press article they no longer mention this group as "White Supremacists".

They've already primed the pump on their Lie Machine.

Now, the "White Supremacists" lie will keep running of its own accord.

And that’s what makes it such an obvious false flag.
She knew she wasn’t in real danger.
But she will pretend to be outraged to drum up support.
Jussie Smollet style.

Operational reality: If there are two in a group one is FBI.

You got that right.

Sadly so.
Once they really were respectable.
Now, no.
The feebers need to be disbanded.

Oh wait. I was wrong. The groups at CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, The New York Times and several other MSM outlets do NOT have an undercover FBI agent in them.

Maybe she’s better on her back like Chlamydia Harris?

[Nothing is off the table. The left will do whatever it takes to stop Trumps re-election.]

That’s correct. Once the SC appointee is confirmed, expect the Democrats to go even more nuts.

Their Democrat Storm Troopers will be rioting, looting and burning (yes, yet again).
