The Delaware man who has been charged for plotting to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer was pardoned by Gov. John Carney last year. Carney approved a pardon for Barry Croft, of Bear, Delaware, in April 2019, after a recommendation by the state’s Board of Pardons.

Croft’s record includes assault, theft, and possession of a firearm during commission of a felony.

The charges in question against Croft were from 1994-1997 and the pardon was unopposed by the Delaware Department of Justice.

I’ll bet the undercover FBI agents were Whitmer’s provocateurs, much like those who infiltrated the recall/amendment effort to thwart its success were working for her.

What a goofy, lamebrained idea. Kidnap her? For what?

According to the FBI, they wanted to try her for treason and then execute her.

“The government said the plot against Whitmer was stopped with the work of undercover agents and informants.”

I've been warning people that militias and other patriot groups are the #1 priority of the DOJ right now, as well as other major LEO organizations. If you are are a member of any "Patriot Group", militia, or any group that could remotely be seen as anti government, you are not only on their radar, but likely have informants or undercover agents in the group. If someone seems to be instigating violence or illegal activity, they are most likely setting the group up to be targeted. I wouldn't at all be surprised if the "undercover agent" was the primary instigator.

Don't forget the Curtis Culwell Center attack, where an undercover agent was actually with the shooters, and was filming the attack FOR them. He was actually planning to film the murder of Americans rather than stop the attack. By the grace of God, an off duty LEO working as security shot both terrorists dead. Don't underestimate how far LEO will go.

He is a left wing anarchist, leader of the Wolverine militia.

According to communist tactics, this guy was rigtfully pardoned because he takes action and so shoukd be pardoned again by the DA...don,t jail the soldiers that bring down the system. That,s rule 1.

way more FIB in these kind of groups. guys freely spoke and got caught

I can't keep from wondering if there really was a plot or just a joke after some beer. I mean, who'd want to kidnap her? For what purpose? And who would pay to get HER back?
