While we have not followed the case as closely as some, the original framework of the federal case against men accused in the kidnapping plot of Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer seemed seriously sketchy from the outset. When it was revealed that twelve FBI operatives were involved in the plot {LINK}, well, it looked like a classic entrapment case.
Six total suspects were arrested of the group of 18 total plotters. Twelve of the eighteen were feds. Two men took a plea deal for lesser charges leaving four men to stand trial.
After four weeks of testimony, the jury was given the ability to consider an entrapment defense. Four days of deliberations have resulted in a not guilty verdict for two of the suspects and a hung jury on two more.
MICHIGAN – A federal jury didn’t find four men suspected of conspiring to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer guilty Friday.
Brandon Caserta, 34, of Canton, and Daniel Harris, 24, of Lake Orion, were found not guilty of conspiring to kidnap, a potential life offense. The jury was hung on conspiracy charges against Barry Croft Jr., 46, of Bear, Delaware, Adam Fox, 38, of Wyoming.
Harris and Caserta were additionally found not guilty on additional weapons charges and will be released from detention. […] The U.S. Attorney’s Office could retry Fox and Croft, who remain jailed, on their unresolved counts. (more)
Julie Kelly followed the case closely, and she posts the following article [SEE HERE]
(AmGreatness) – […] A roster of FBI agents and experts took the stand during the three-week trial, which was temporarily delayed due to one participant’s COVID diagnosis; Dan Chappel, the lead informant and government’s star witness known as “Big Dan,” explained how he brought the makeshift group of alleged “militia” members together after he was hired by the FBI in March 2020. Chappel created encrypted chat groups and organized excursions for field training and surveillance of Whitmer’s cottage. (He, along with other FBI informants, posed as leaders of two “militia” groups, at least one of which was created by the FBI.)
For his work over a six-month period, Chappel, a truck driver for a U.S. Postal Service subcontractor, was compensated at least $60,000 by the FBI in cash and gifts such as a new laptop, tires, and a smart watch.
Prosecutors mostly relied on conversations secretly recorded by FBI assets as evidence of wrongdoing; two men charged in the same indictment had pleaded guilty and testified for the government in exchange for lighter prison sentences. (read more)
Ken Bensinger, from Buzzfeed News, covered the trial extensively, and he has a lengthy outline showing just how sketchy the case was; including the extreme lengths the federal prosecutors took to stop the defense from presenting the most damning evidence of the federal involvement [SEE HERE].
(BUZZFEED) – Despite the government’s extraordinary efforts to muzzle the defense, a jury in Grand Rapids federal court on Friday acquitted two men on charges including conspiring to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. The jury was unable to reach a verdict on the other two who had been charged.
As a result, Daniel Harris and Brandon Caserta are now free men, while Adam Fox and Barry Croft return to jail and await a decision by the Justice Department on whether to try them a second time.
The outcome of the trial is a stunning rebuke to the prosecution, which at times appeared to view the case — one of the most prominent domestic terror investigations in a generation — as a slam dunk. The split verdict calls into question the Justice Department’s strategy, and beyond that, its entire approach to combating domestic extremism. Defense attorneys in the case, along with observers from across the political spectrum, have argued the FBI’s efforts to make the case, which involved at least a dozen confidential informants, went beyond legitimate law enforcement and into outright entrapment.
It may also leave the two defendants who chose to plead guilty and testify for the government, Ty Garbin and Kaleb Franks, wondering whether they made the right choice. (read more)
From the outset in October 2020, everything around the “plot to kidnap” Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer seemed sketchy, almost silly. The goofy similarities and suspicions were familiar to those who remembered the sketchy October 2018 “mail bombing plot” that involved Cesar Sayoc.
It just didn’t seem coincidental that both 2018 and 2020 FBI exploits involved weird frameworks, odd suspects and obviously both operations just happened to culminate in October of an election year… Surprise!
Add to that suspicion all that was known about the FBI’s intense political motivations found in their activities over the past several years, including the sketchy attempt to frame candidate Donald Trump for a vast Russian election conspiracy, coordinated with the opposing candidate, Hillary Clinton, and well, suspicious cats were increasingly suspicious of the FBI engineered mess.
By the time FBI Director Chris Wray was questioned about the content of Sayoc’s Acme “mail bombs”, and he said they were comprised of: “energetic material that can become combustible when subjected to heat or friction,” yes, it could have been anything from matchsticks to coffee cream, well, eyes were rolling. When the DOJ then sealed the evidence against Sayoc and all court documents behind the shroud of super-duper national security secrecy, the FBI political motives again seemed transparent.
That’s the backdrop two years later for the FBI’s vast Michigan militia plot to kidnap Whitmer…. and the side-eye from anyone who has ever paid attention to these matters. Apparently, the results of the jury deliberations highlight the same likely federal intentions.
Yes, we live in rather remarkable times.
The prosecution and FBLie
Got smoked like a cheap cigar
Stalin and Beria are alive and well, and working at the FBI and the Department of (In)Justice.
…and Inspector Javert!
Yes…Javert as well. Part of Hannity’s 99%.
Hannity needs to be driven out of Fox to CNN or MSNBC where he belongs. He’s no friend of MAGA.
Who does Hannity love? Hannity loves himself…and the sound of his own voice. Has always taken himself too seriously. Never liked him. Pompous. As for Fox? We cut the cord once the Liberal Murdoch boys cemented their grip. We knew then exactly where Fox was headed. And so it has done.
Did you know that his mother was a correctional officer in Nassau County!
Truly? I did not know that!
Hannity is a mental lightweight that managed to fall into a very good paying job. He exists only to keep the checks coming, and should be treated as such.
Hannity loves his $$$ paycheck $$$!
Yeah, and all the war mongers care about is Putin, a leader in another country! Enemy is within.
On March 10 of this year, the President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele (an incredibly forthright man it seems) tweeted the following…
“The most powerful country in the world is falling so fast that it makes you rethink what are the reasons.
Something so big and powerful can’t be destroyed so quickly, unless the enemy comes from within.”
President Bukele agrees with you, hanna…as do millions of Americans. There’s no question about it.
I’m reminded of Lenny and George from Of Mice and Men. The dream of Ranch ownership is substituted/replaced by the fantasy of kidnapping Gov Whitmer.
The FBI are rather stultified in the imagination department. I’m thinking of those agents who showed up dressed as they thought mainstream American men dress, and only stood out like sore thumbs. I further believe of the agents most really are substandard intellectually.
Having said that, and given the level of unconstitutional surveillance which is being employed , I should expect a knock on my door any minute now.
Ha , Betsy !
*The Knock on the Door*
That’s a Big Mistake they wouldn’t make Twice with You 😄
Regards 😊💐
Bill Clinton has a few slightly used cheap cigars… A bit fishy though…
Now there’s a career path worthy of investigation for prosecutorial misconduct!
It would be interesting to see who was behind his promotions along that path.
Chris Wray and Bill Barr! Who else would it be?
Beavis & Butthead.
Two questions; who was pushing his promotions, and why?
Maybe Antuono got the promotion because he showed impressive enthusiasm for his assignments and was willing to do ‘what ever it takes’ to make his superiors happy.
Just heard Darren Beatty from Revolver News on The War Room give us this shocker.
Maybe Stevie D can locate Ray Epps? Haven’t heard much regarding Mr. Epps lately.
So let’s see, it says here that you are an absolute conniving pos, with little or no morals, and you will do anything for a dollar and career advancement? Well, we have a position for you! When can you start?
Somebody tell Hannity that no, 99% of the FBI rank-n-file are not dedicated patriotic professionals.
That guy is a very bad dude!
SO NOW D’ANTUONO IS OFF TO FAIL IN ANOTHER FRAUDULENT ENTRAPMENT SCAM FOR J6 KANGAROO COURT.
THIS WON’T END WELL FOR HIM.
Made my weekend!
Alas, the wrong people were on trial.
Sad but true.
It’s exactly like the Savings and Loan Crisis thirty years ago. All those years the banks had the cameras pointed in the wrong direction!
Yes, sir. Banks are supposedly run by smart people.
How come the pens are chained down and the vault doors open?
Just asking.
You are certainly right about that, California Joe. Back in the 80s when I was trying to clean up some of the corruption in Porterville and Tulare County I ran across a most interesting criminal scam.
A certain developer rolled into town and began buying up lots of ag land, putting the titles in the name of his General Partnership. He would get mutiple loans upon the properties, 1st, 2nd and 3rd trust deeds. The 3rd trust deeds were financed by Eureka Federal Savings and Loan, except they listed them as 2nd trust deeds.
The developer used 5 different social security numbers (back then they listed the SSNs on the loan documents filed at the county). His general partner had the same name and what appeared to be the same signature as the loan officer approving the loans for Eureka Federal Savings and Loan. And they were definitely 3rd trust deeds, not 2nd, as shown on the documents.
I took the documents to a retired FBI fellow who had a document verification business for his thoughts on the the signatures being the same for the general partner/loan officer. He was shocked and advised me to take them to the FBI in Fresno, so I did.
I will never forget Mr. Kerry Smith, the FBI agent I spoke with. I explained the whole thing to him and tried to show him the documents I had copies of, complete with the county embossed seal to prove they were real. These 3rd trust deeds were for millions of dollars.
He refused to look at them and instead asked me what I did for a living. I told him I was a housewife. He then asked me very snidely if I figured this out on my own. Yes, I did. He refused to accept the documents and told me to leave.
Eight months later Eureka Federal Savings and Loan was the first S&L to fold for lack of solvency. That’s when I lost trust in the FBI. No one paid a price for the looting of the S&L and we the taxpayers were on the hook for the money lost.
I’ve had a few similar experiences. The people in charge of investigating corruption are really assigned to protecting their overlords.
Yeppers. Only with me it was for HUD and fraudulent foreclosures. The jerks
I talked to were less interested in what was being done and more in if it was through
FHA finance. If it wasn’t, they didn’t want to hear anything more. No matter how
blatant the scams and false appraisals were.
I’m still waiting for someone to be brought up on charges for Benghazi.
Looting the Libyan armories to send the weapons to the Saudi/CIA sponsored “ISIS” & “Al-CIA-duh” (who we were told did 9/11) terrorists that Russia was helping secular Syria & the Iraq government in annihilating
The people who plead guilty should have their sentences cancelled. They were entrapped in a different sense.
The FBI should be on trial for trying to create crimes which in itself is a crime.
offcoursenation: The FBI is on trial, in the court of public opinion. The FBI is losing the case, badly.
They had it easy, for so many years.
When FBI agents testified, juries BELIEVED them.
Often, the “case” totally hinged on the veracity of the agents testimony.
Juries, propagandized by “Efrem Zimbalist Jr.” and a PR campaign establishedand maintained by Hoover, would convict based on their testimony.
Hopefully, NO MORE.
Yes, I agree. But –
It was only after the light began to shine after Pres. Trump was elected, that we began to seriously see and question the lies of the fake news Main stream media, the FBI, the CIA, (as well as that of the foreign cohort Intel Services), the DOJ, and the deep state;
and,
I of course need to include the libs, the Dems, the Judiciary, the finance whales, and the RINOS !!!
So, can we in confidence really expect ‘Hopefully NO MORE’ ???
I suspect that when the TRUTH does finally prevail it will only be because The LORD has intervened !!!
Efrem Zimbalist Jr. was a great American. He was a neighbor and I know his family. He was also a devout Christian. The show may have been designed as propaganda, but Efrem was a gem of a human being.
Heil Whitler.

Of course my husband can still take our boat out of the marina!
Gov. Retched Witless
Scratch the surface of a Progressive and you find a Jackbooted Nazi underneath. The FBI and DOJ was obviously counting on all of the defendants taking a plea deal so they did not have to go to trial. Why did the FBI dream up this scheme in the first place? Was it to generate some free campaign publicity for Whitmer by turning some bar talk into a giant conspiracy or is the DOJ and FBI completely delusional. Want to defund some police then lets defund the FBI.
“A liberal is a communist without power. A communist is a liberal with power”
A liberal is a Communist who hasn’t shown you his gun!
WOULDN’T THAT BE CONSIDERED, “ACCESSORY BEFORE THE FACT”?
Glad to see Suspicious Cat back.
For a group that supposedly has “complete” control, they are flopping about.
No different than what the FBI did on J6th! Some FBI agents and their bosses need to be charged, convicted and jailed!!!
How about the FBI/CIA & Co “failure” on 9/11? (more like treason)
They were probably in on it.
A self-admitted Communist!
same guy who ran this entrapment scheme, ran the J6th effort and shock and awe reaction to J6.
Here’s the FBLie involved with a real terrorist attack in Garland Tx where the they were agitating and steering the terrorists!
What did the FBI Really Know before Terrorist Attack in Garland, Texas?
https://www.grassley.senate.gov/news/news-releases/what-did-fbi-really-know-terrorist-attack-garland-texas
Chuckie Grassely writes a letter . . . zzzzzzzzzzzzz
Boy, that’ll show them!
Chuck Grassley is a RINO, every bit as much as Graham, and has earned the same contempt.
Not one Senator I would piss on if they were on fire.
ALL corrupt.
Since the Government wasn’t able to earn a single count conviction on Defendant’s Croft and Fox today WHY ARE THEY STILL BEING DETAINED????
A hung jury is not an acquital, and the jury was hung on (I think) two counts
A hung jury is by definition the jury’s factual determination the government failed to present sufficient evidence to convict. The same standard that IS SUPPOSED TO govern a prosecutor making the decision whether to file charges at all. It’s not a fishing expedition where you charge and then hope to find enough evidence at some point during the process to convict.
And yes, I’m a lawyer, 30 years in the trenches. I know what I’m talking about.
Before the caterwauling starts, a “jury” is all 12, a “juror” is one of the “jury”. Standard to file charges is whether there is sufficient evidence for a JURY to convict, not a random juror.
Understand, but the government failed to get a single guilty verdict!
Good question. What happened to the no bail movement in blue states. Guess that only applies to actual criminals.
These guys are:
1. Poor
2. White
3. Republican
Therefore they have no civil rights and are fair game for the Democrats and news media to screw!
That’s kind of like kidnapping Nancy Pelosi.
FBI entrappers have other problems, obviously, but these wannabe felons need to get a life.
Felon Bureau of Instigation?
A bureau of the Department of Just-us!
Ministry of Just-Us
Reading about the sleazy FBI, I recalled that Joe Pientka was just a sleazy as these FBI. Why did he go into hiding and where did he end up? Anyone ever hear anything?
Dems always fail up…
Now do the Reichstag Ruse.
If it weren’t for false flags, this Occupation Government would have no flag at all.
Old but good…..
New York Times Confirms Revolver’s Claim of FBI Involvement In 1/6… But What Are They Still Hiding?
https://www.revolver.news/2021/09/new-york-times-confirms-fbi-involvement-jan-6/
“addressing violence and threats to our democracy”
But never addressing violence in our inner cities and never addressing threats to our democracy from the Fourth Branch.
those are the plans and not threats…
THis is big- picture related. Jack Maxey, the new Hero of the Right , has given money to: Bill McCollum, George W. Bush, and Mitt Romney. https://www.opensecrets.org/donor-lookup/results?name=Jack+Maxey
The Pink Shirt gave it away. He is trash. He is controlled opposition,like Bannon, and he is keeping us occupied and focused on a Kraken event that will never happen.
He will keep us holding on to this, and therefore keeping real opposition in limbo, and won’t release anything before the midterms.
The NY Post and the Mac repairman need to just get out in front of this and release everything.
I do not agree. Many gave money or support to the conservative candidates before information revealed the depravity of the likes of Bush and Romney
I gave money to Romney. I want to sue him for fraud to get it back.
I’ve never donated to a Bush or voted for one in a primary.
i did the same and now hate that i gave to Bush and Romney .
A lot of us supported those bums before we knew better. People grow.
Long ago— 2004, 2010. Many here voted for W too. Who lnew back then he was a scam.
so when do the dirty agents recieve justice?
Better question is, what’s next for the 12 agents now?
Wish we could have a program so we can follow these government criminals from fake case to fake case.
What’s next?
C’mon man!
Wake up.
Their promotions and pay raises are being processed as we speak.
Like the coincidence of the lovers being involved with M.Y.E and C.H.
These 12 agents and their superiors now have a proven record of going along with the swamp, even if it’s against the law, the constitution and their oath.
They will be useful to the swamp again in the future.
They should give us a scorecard.
that is, they will work to improve their entrapment efforts – with a complicit, propaganda media …
…sad, sick, despicable.
Yet, the fortitude of honest citizens…perseveres through the adversities… because they have the truth…
As did Jesus…
Of which many can read and learn… : )
HIS truth keeps marching on …
( hymn of the republic )
when we see them on the street .
So no “our justice system works as designed. Whether or not we agree with the verdict, it must be accepted” from the governor, huh. Kind’a the opposite. Not even a perfunctory “thanks” to the jury, who sacrificed months of their time and loss of earnings, as well as potential retaliation for doing their civic duty. Very, very revealing.
fbi should stick to suspicious garage pull ropes. that seems more their speed. what a bunch of crooked bufoons.
1) Check out the ears on Caserta. That is body modification from ear gauges.
The story presented to the public was that these people were motivated by white nationalism and opposition to the lockdowns.
While there are always exceptions to rules, someone with ear gauges is far more likely to be in ANTIFA than a right-wing militia. It’s another little tell that there was something wrong with this story from the start.
2) Do not forget Whitmer was only the most prominent alleged target. There was at least one other alleged governor kidnapping plot floated by the national media at the time (current trial news makes it impossible to find specific information). I also remember the local Boston media trying to link the Whitmer case with protests outside Governor NewNormal Baker’s residence and his personal safety.
The “Kidnapping” story arc was a major effort to intimidate people standing up for freedom and to discredit peaceful protests against those imposing tyrannical lockdowns. In light of what happened to the Canada truck protestors and the growing push for digital currency system, the entire charade moves from kooky to concerning.
Older millenials went kinda stupid with the ear gauges and other crap for a while. What I am seeing is that same crew, roughly 26ish and above now, become center libertarian, right leaning, and some pretty hard core right.
Yup, my older son and his girlfriend both have them. They are 34 and 33. Ugly in my view, but they are neither white nationalists or antifa.
I play on the local music scene and have seen lots of hipster bartenders and musicians with those ear inserts
NONE are Republicans, I can guarantee you
“Concerning”? Yes–a Fascist Police State Gestapo could be deemed mildly concerning.
The other guv was Gov. Rainman Coonman of Virginia.
The FBI would have kidnapped him, too, but he was always disguised with his own specially commissioned COVID mask:
Yes. It was Grand Wizard Northam. Thank you.
So….Was the fbi doing this as a fake kidnapping designed to make some supposedly right wing militia folks they had a grudge against take a fall, or were they planning on taking out the guvnah all along, and needed to deflect the blame to what they felt would be an easy target?
Federale scum better pony up the legal fees.
not a problem, they’ve got deep pockets … YOURS
they normalize all their atrocities, why should we not normalize a few corrections. They can say and do whatever they want, but not us.
Ooooooh snap.
If Wrey and Garland had an ounce of integrity, they would resign immediately. This happened while Bill Barr ran the DOJ. What a pathetic clown show. Just one more reason why our country is a laughing stock.
Yes, and Greg Gutfeld had lying evil billy barr on his show last night and allowed him to be portrayed like a good guy. Gutfeld is a coward.
Hope they all go free, but let me say; two of them look like their family tree didn’t have a fork in it…
The fbi has become as much a joke, as it is corrupt. The agency is even worse as criminals. FBI agents are cream of the crap.
Gruppenfuhrer Gretchen has failed. She will be sent IMMEDIATELY to the Eastern front!
Premier Law Enforcement Agency, indeed. I wonder if the skank and file are aware that their name is mud?
My suspicion is that the two who the jury deadlocked on won’t be re-tried, due to certain evidence/testimony not being allowed in this time, which has an increased likelihood of being allowed/required if a re-trial were to happen.
I know it’s an unfamiliar feeling, but I am so encouraged by this verdict, by the facts slowly leaking out about the laptop story, about the people who were invited into the Capitol on the 6th getting some acquittals, by the truth coming out about the BLM swindles for big homes, about a judge ruling for Trump in his NY golf course lawsuit, about the FEC fining Hilary and the DNC, about Durham’s court filings in the Sussman case, about the quickly growing backlash from parents, even Democrat ones, to the absolute Leftist insanity in our schools. Keep on keeping on and keep the faith. We are finally making real progress. 😊
Yes!!! Good news finally. Go sue the FBI. The jury saw the FBI scheme with these guys that just liked to talk big.
Someone needs to grill FBI Director Wray with respect to his Leftist agenda when it comes to terror investigations.
This was pure Narrative Engineering, just like Juicy Smollyay and the Crafty Beaver brothers.
Just like Jussie, the FBI was trying to say “Trump supporters are all dangerous White Supremacists!” This means YOU.
Does the FBI even do actual crime anymore? I can’t remember the last time I heard them bust a bank robber or interstate car theft ring.
It seems like all they do is rig investigations for crooked Democrats and frame innocent Trump supporters. If they do happen to go after Hunter, its only so they can dump the Parkinson’s Pedophile.
This was an FBI attempt to sway the 2020 election. They cooked up this “October surprise” to hurt Donald Trump. If I was Trump I would be LOUDLY declaring it as such and calling for the arrest of FBI Director Wray and everyone in the FBI associated associated with this operation especially the then FBI head of the Detroit office who would be promoted to the D.C. field office where he orchestrated the 1/6 honey-trap
“Yes, I understand your “demands” for releasing Gov. Whitmer,…my qurstion is, how much for you to NOT release her,..?”
Can’t help it, every time I read or hear “Gov. Whitmer KIDNAP plot” I get this mental image,…
The Patriot act was justified, and its reauthorisation was similarly justified, by the FBI conducting similar “operations” to entrap muslims I am absolutely convinced.
Just about every American Muslim teenager that they prosecuted as a lone wolf, falls in that category.
Recipe, find a disaffected teenage boy suffering from alienation. Hook them up with agitators who brainwash them into wanting to do the dead. Hook them up with someone willing to sell them the weapons. Arrest them at the buy.
Lawyers made lots of complaints about these abuses, but hardly anyone listened.
The Ransom of Red Chief!
Yes indeedy! Loved that story!
The media in Michigan is on suicide watch.
Were the FIB agents assuming that if their hirelings successfully kidnapped Gov Witless there would be somebody wanting her back? Willing to negotiate or pay to get her back? Makes no sense.
Must have been White Privilege, or Bearded Privilege…Gotta blame it on something other than the FBI’s dumdum behavior.
Criminal. I dont want hearings, I want trials. All criminals held in a Red state jail until trial. We have known for years the CIA, FBI, NSA,DOJ are all liberal oranizatons and the Uni Party won’t do anything to hold people accountable with trials and jail time. Lawyers can lie and alter documents used for a FISA court with no punishment. McCabe gets his back salary and pension reinstated after being fired. Our government is beyond corrupt. I dont think Trump will make a dent, he is too nice, and not ruthless enough to fix this. Something has to change.
Ahh the FBI , once considered the finest criminal investigation organization in the world !
Driven by a relentless pursuit of the truth by men & women of impeccable character and unquestionable honor and integrity . Well at least that’s what we were always lead to believe .
It seems that the more leftist leaning elected appointed and hired these men and women are the more they lie cheat fabricate to advance a political agenda . The fact that 12 of a total of 18 were FBI compensated informants calls for entrapment like the Steel Dossier and January 6 Protestors All agenda driven by lies deceit and fabrication deliberately done from the top down .
Now exposing the fact that these prosecutors attempt to hide under uncle Samantha’s skirt using national security excuse .
This just means guilty till you prove your innocence !
Well done jury this time as for the guys who cop a plea generally they are screwed because the feds always come back with you plead guilty . Says the guy hiding evidence that exonerates you and your looking at life so you go for a deal and walk in 2 to 5 ! I hope all that changes with the exposure of what prosecutors do for a conviction lie a lot
Those people don’t even look real. Like photoshop frankensteins or AI generated faces…
The veil of reality is thin.
A HAHAHA. I’ll take a small victory like this any day of the week. Smoked their sorry asses the defense did. Good. F..k you DOJ.
Six defendents and 12 FBI assets involved in the “conspiracy”. All of them should be found NOT GUILTY.
Now we need to punish the FBI for its hoax – just like Jussie Smollett
Notice how this, just like the Rittenhouse case, doesn’t have the establishment media “supporting the jury” even though they didn’t like the verdict. I love the smell of virtual napalm on the press on a Friday afternoon.
So, Whitmer “appreciates” the prosecutors, but not the defense lawyers or the jury?
That statement from Whitmer was so absurd. “What about the Children?!”. Yes, “extremist rhetoric” is killing our kids because.uh..yeah. Goofy. And what about the ANTIFA/BLM Riots? Oh wait, that was OK and NOT extreme. Instead ‘Mostly peaceful’.
And a “Weapon of mass destruction”? If they had a WMD, why didn’t the 8 FBI Assets step in and stop them from getting it? And how did a bunch of average guys who were mostly unemployed get a WMD. I”m assuming WMD is just a made up term for some sort of low level explosive.
Alinsky tactics were designed to take over systems governed by the rule of law and – now that the Alinskyites are running things – the rule of law has them flummoxed.
Seems the “cream of the crop” has sunk to the bottom with the rest of swamp!!
