    Who was plotting to kidnap Governor Whitmer?

    "Further, turns out in checking out the folks behind the alleged plot, one of the alleged members, Brandon Caserta, would appear to be an anarchist. Not only that, he’s anti-Trump. Check the flag in the background."

    If that were true, the DOJ would have already made a public statement to deflect.

    So are you supporting this plot or playing with mud to distract?

      Right, he hasn't condemned it yet.

      Misinfo from the right is definitely a thing. After the Rittenhouse incident, people here were saying "what about the convicted felon with a gun?". It turns out that guy was a CCL holder, carrying, who chose not to use it.

      Moreover Trump would rather attack Whitmer, the undisputed target of the attack, then preach Law & Order. Another one of those dog whistle omissions.

        To be equitable, misinformation is a problem we all have.

        Vern fails to explain how this is not an accused act of anarchy?

          Fred Kaplan, writer, generally has his head on straight.

          Plotters not explicitly pro-Trump, but at some level his rhetoric about the system being corrupt matches their own. In his case it may be self-serving but it feels like he's trying to tap this sentiment for his own purposes in a way that his opposition is not. As I said, his dog whistle omission when a strong Law and Order message would seem to have mainstream appeal. Chaos, as in the "Chaos President", and Anarchism are not antagonistic to each other.

            The guy isn't anything but a brain damaged idiot. I thought that was the Blair Witch flag.

              Anarchists are leftists. Hardly Trump supporters.

                  With your statement you are correct that this is a Socialist Democrat plot.

                    Of course, as I have pointed out before, Socialism and Democracy are incompatible. Socialists want to take your property. To do that they have to be stronger than you are. They want to take my property, and to do that, they have to be stronger than both of us. They want to take EVERYONE's property, and to do that have to be stronger than all the people put together (which is why they push "gun control.")

                    Socialism is therefore anti-Democratic. It's based on force, raw force.

                      They don't defend Confederate monuments.

                        third, if tthe abjuction had occured, how were they supposed to get to Wisconsin, going major highways through Gand Rapids aroung the bottom of L.Michigan and then thru chicago or head north over the Big Mac" on Rt. 2 [two laner[ over the top of L. Michigan then southon US 41 [another two laner], or direct route with a boat across L. Michigan.

                        Just to make off with a idiot who might as well be singing" Biritsh Govenor -General song. [Priates of Pezance]

                          from what little I have read,, not all were defending monuments, just a couple,
                          and it seems to be a very mixed up group, if you start looking at each individual,

                            A good demonstration of why this is not a one side problem.
