It’s an older story but provides another embarrassing tale for the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Remember the 2020 kidnapping plot against Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, which was later exposed as a failed FBI entrapment plot? The supposed masterminds got charged, but none of them were indicted because the case was marinated with lies. This case was supposed to be a slam-dunk for the feds. It was a train wreck, but the damage was done. Whitmer weaponized the FBI informant-led plot to attack Trump in the waning days of the 2020 election, which was possibly the bureau’s intent. They fabricated evidence to spy on Trump campaign officials and kept the Russian collusion circus going while knowing that it was a Democrat-funded opposition research project that was unverifiable. The FBI has done many an election interference operation since 2016.

Two of the alleged conspirators are being re-tried, which is led to this FBI informant dropping some damning information about the Justice Department. In May 2020, protesters, some of whom were armed, stormed the state capitol in Lansing. The uproar occurred over Whitmer’s continued use of emergency powers over the COVID pandemic, but the latest development here is that the FBI reportedly told the Michigan police to let the armed protesters into the building. Our friends at Twitchy had it first.

I was just putting in the context of public perception. Your post illustrates the sad state the FBI is in. Unfortunately the Michigan media has either spiked the story or worse distorted it to help the vile rat Governor.

it was started just before the 2020 elections, and are now continuing with it for the upcoming mid-terms. It’s to help the Democrats in hopes of stopping the supposed red wave.
