The tech publication Wired reported Thursday that the Three Percenter, or III%er, militia is again proliferating on Facebook ahead of the 2024 presidential election.
The Three Percenters are a national network of militias, the name being a reference to the fact that only about 3% of colonists took up arms against King George in the American Revolution. The Three Percenters were involved in both the Whitmer kidnap plot and the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol Hill uprising.
However, what Wired didn’t mention in its report is that the Three Percenters were heavily infiltrated by the FBI. In fact, the FBI used the Three Percenters as a front group in the Whitmer plot—going so far as to have its informants run fake III%er Facebook groups.
I mean if you’re dumb enough to participate in any of these fed post operations, you only have yourself to blame at this point. https://t.co/YT9hVSjYba — Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 (@julie_kelly2) May 2, 2024
The FBI’s creation of Three Percenter Facebook pages was revealed during the first Whitmer trial in 2022.
Defense attorney Christopher Gibbons, who represented militia “ringleader” Adam Fox, said during the trial that FBI informant Steve Robeson created the Facebook page of the Michigan Three Percenters.
According to Gibbons, Robeson announced on the Three Percenters’ Facebook page that Fox had become the leader of the Michigan branch in June 2020. It was around that time that Fox became active with the Wolverine Watchmen, the group associated with the alleged plot to kidnap Whitmer.
Fox was made administrator of the Michigan Three Percenters’ Facebook page created by the FBI informants, Gibbons said.
“He got that Facebook page courtesy of the federal government,” the attorney said.
After being made administrator of the Facebook page, Gibbons said, Fox received a message from another FBI informant named “Mark.” Fox then attended a militia training event in Munith, Michigan, on June 28, 2020, Gibbons said.
The alleged plot escalated from there, until Fox was arrested along with Barry Croft, Daniel Harris, Brandon Caserta, Ty Garbin, and Kaleb Franks in October 2020.
After the arrests, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg bragged about alerting the FBI to the Whitmer plot—apparently unaware that his company was alerting the FBI to its own informants.

More recently, The Intercept reported that FBI informant Jenny Plunk was also involved in creating the fake Michigan Three Percenters.
“FBI informant, Jenny Plunk, created a private Facebook group called ‘Michigan Patriot III%ers.’ (The FBI classifies Three Percenters as a domestic terrorism threat.),” The Intercept reported in March.
“The Facebook group’s first members were Plunk and Robeson, both on the FBI’s payroll, and Fox and his girlfriend, Amanda Keller.”
But none of that is mentioned in Wired’s article, which instead fearmongered over an apparent resurgence in extremism.
“After lying low for several years in the aftermath of the US Capitol riot on January 6, militia extremists have been quietly reorganizing, ramping up recruitment and rhetoric on Facebook—with apparently little concern that Meta will enforce its ban against them,” Wired reported.

Mother Government will never have a shortage of Useful Idiots available on FB, that’s for sure.
Still think Deep State, Mother Government, Zuckerburg, Gates, Brandon, Big Pharma, et al are your FRIENDS and have Your Best Interests at heart? LOL!
EVERY organization out there that has even a wiff of real Patriotism about it has been “infiltrated” by some alphabet agency.
I still have a III% flag I fly on the 4th of July.
Groups like this SHOULD be an active threat to the current government. And the Feds are right to be afraid. The Feds KNOW they are off the rails and that one wrong move unleashes the flood.
The current iteration is the Patriot Front fedboyz...
Yep...
The most dangerous criminal organization in this country is the FBI. Has been true for decades.
What I find most disheartening is that too many times, when the idea of forming up groups to oppose our radically out of control government comes up...
... we frequently fail because “they” might be listening... might be infiltrating... might be gaming us.
If J6 HAD been an insurrection... if J6 HAD been what it should have been... If the Oath Keepers/Proud Boys/Boogaloo had not been so intent on “keeping the peace at all costs”...
Trump would be finishing out his Second Term and Pelosi et al would most likely be in jail.
Instead... anything with a hint of being organized or effective is targeted, isolated, jailed on the flimsiest of charges, infiltrated, and pushed off the to fringe to die.
Yes. we are.
I remember him from Sipsey Street.
“There never was a “III-Percent Militia”. The III Percent concept was created by Mike Vanderboegh as a way of thinking about history and the philosophy of resistance to tyranny, and propagated by his blog Sipsey Street Irregulars.”

Very interesting, thank you.
They are definitely 'gaming' us. The government is full of some of the most evil, vindictive, and manipulative people you will ever meet. They have made concerted efforts to drag the term "militia" through the mud. In a legitimate republic, local militias would be a part of all emergency management, national disasters, an in cases of civil unrest. Unfortunately, the united states hasn't been a legitimate republic for decades. The government has long been an enemy of the people, that has no compunction against killing any citizen for any reason, or no reason at all.
Actually thought this was about the Antifa black shirts being organized for this summer. Was there any other violent group during the summer of 2020?

Was Varnell a member
He claimed to be didn’t he?
I don’t know honestly
You have to weed thru the bs
I have reason to believe things are a bit further along than that.
That's my website below and I posted the May 8 story early this morning. I use a lot of links to flesh out the post. When I was putting it together the links started to break up before I was done pasting them in place. Go, see if they work for you. I've been posting items for more than ten years and rarely had problems.

First YT link is dead. At work right now... will check on others later...
When I previewed it, the original content looked the same as the published content, that is, censored. I've never experienced this before, hell, I am the fringe. I don't do ads and don't trust the monthly tally's when I check them, either.
So I figure we may be a lot further down the road than even I thought if they're screwing with the likes of me.
What I'm going to do is type out the pre-published content and then the published content and hope it turns out ok.
This is the pre-published material:
That 'to hell with everyone else' attitude of the harm reduction leaders is shared by their https://www.scattergoodfoundation.org/about/our-positioning-statement/ supporting foundation Scattergood as stated in the opening sentence of their positioning pronouncement...
At the Scattergood Foundation, we believe major disruption is needed to build a stronger, more effective,compassionate, and inclusive society wher behavioral health is central...
That evidently struck a chord with Philadelphia's own Mr.Big who provided Philadelphia addicts with a get out of a Philadelphia jail free card. (What they were doing isn't legal in the rest of Pennsylvania.)
The message that shows up to the reader at the website goes like this:
That 'to hell with everyone else' attitude of the harm reduction leaders is shared by their Mr.Big who provided Philadelphia addicts with a get out of a Philadelphia jail free card. (What they were doing isn't legal in the rest of Pennsylvania.
And it turned out as expected.
