She sure did have a prepared speech attacking Trump ready to go. Is Michigan going for Trump? Nancy has lots of arrows in her quiver. This sounds like a joke to me. It’s just laughable. Kidnap her, and then what. It’s funny. Sounds like a bunch of 8 year olds dreaming up a scheme while they are camping out.

That was the first thing I thought of: “Ruthless People”. Hilarious.

“Looks like ANTIFA guy”

Bingo!

The narrative is debunked. Not right wing, but an ANTIFA false flag operation to impact the election.

I call total BS.

It is. Half the people involved are probably fbi agents and instigators. This is how the criminal organization known as the 'fbi' works. The rest of the folk, perhaps minus one or two were blowing off steam.

Thank you for reminding me the name of the movie. It was a very funny movie and that scene where Midler was on the phone crying saying “I’m being marked down’ and made a reference to Kmart Blue Light Special.

Years ago a friend was working undercover and that situation actually happened. It was very tense, and my friend started looking around and realized EVERY PERSON AT THE SCENE (ON BOTH SIDES') WAS A COP. That was the only time I heard of that happening...

Like racism, the demand for white supremacists greatly exceeds the supply.

Suspect is an ANARCHIST (not Republican) with the ANARCHIST flag behind him in his video. And WHO would be friends/associates of an ANARCHIST? Most likely other ANARCHISTS. Duh!

When you have the time, read this article to understand how alleged 'White Supremacists', 'racists', and 'right-wing' groups are infiltrated and set-up by law enforcement. For some reason law enforcement doesn't seem interested in infiltrating radial left-wing groups like Antifa:

This is a video of Brandon Caserta, one of the ringleaders of the group of men arrested for a plot where the group planned to kidnap Governor Gretchen Whitmer. Caserta has an anarchist flag behind him and in YouTube videos trashes police. He’s not a Republican, he’s an anarchist. pic.twitter.com/J1vE2qGYL7— Robby Starbuck (@robbystarbuck) October 8, 2020

More on the ideology of one of the men who was busted by the FBI for a plot to kidnap Governor Gretchen Whitmer. In this video he poses in front of an anarchist flag to tell people that the Declaration of Independence is an anarchist document. Brandon Caserta is an anarchist. pic.twitter.com/7PgQkYrNIQ— Robby Starbuck (@robbystarbuck) October 8, 2020

“Did the FBI agent in the group give them the idea?”

My first thought as well. From the article it says they talked about taking direct action, but then decided to talk to their neighbors to persuade them to political action.

If that were true these ‘clever’ right wing trixters.._
That's another thing, on the one hand the left portrays "right wing extremists" as ignernt cheap beer guzzling wife beating meth headed cousin effing trailer trash, yet on the other they told us they're intelligent and sophisticated enough to pull off such an intricate complex undercover operation. Suuuure

Last summer this was happening, having nothing to do with the Lockdown, and now the October Surprise indictments by Dana the Destroyer, in a Big Tit for Tat, giving the Gretch ammo to tie it all to Trump. In the end, it will fizzle like all the other crap pulled on us to keep our attention going every which way. This is going to prove to be another FBI sting with FBI Undercover agents and “informants” inciting and entrapping. IF it is anything “real,” it is leftwing wackos or paid actors as no one would act this way in real life. Waco, Ruby Ridge, Finicum/Malheur, Bundys, Hutatree, am I forgetting anyone? My Stinkometer is going off the chart again.

Can’t wait to see how this plays out.

SOunds more like a CYA moment to cover for Wray. I would bet money that the entire incident was Started and Promoted by the FBI, they most likely intentionally went after a few marginalized crazy guys and and pumped them up with crap and got them riled up enough to join their Plot, just to arrest them afterwards to make Wray appear to be truthful.

I'd be willing to bet serious money that NONE of the people charged will ever see the inside of a court room outside of some 'plea deal'. If I were on a jury in this case, my only real question would be, "What did they actually do?" If they didn't actually take concrete steps to actually off the bitch or something, they'd walk, because there is no way in hell I'd vote to convict.

Anyone who was that worked-up about taking out a tyrant would just stage a sniper attack. They wouldn’t bother to kidnap somebody with all of the attendant headaches that entails.

Yup. "Unintended Consequences" has some really good ideas in it.
