The right-wing extremist who federal authorities say led the failed plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic has been sentenced to 16 years in prison — dodging what could have been a life sentence that federal authorities had sought in the rare domestic terrorism case.
Adam Fox, 39, was convicted in August on two conspiracy charges relating to the kidnapping scheme and another to obtain and use a weapon of mass destruction related to a side plot to blow up a bridge in order to distract authorities.
Federal prosecutors identified Fox as the “driving force” behind the plan to kidnap Whitmer and start a civil war in the run-up to the 2020 presidential election.
Prosecutors have identified Fox as the ringleader of a group of six men who plotted to kidnap the governor as retaliation against mask mandates, business closures and other precautionary measures against the COVID-19 pandemic.
Whitmer had instituted several COVID-19-related restrictions as the virus spread through the country. The disease killed hundreds of thousands of people in 2020.

What sentence did the FBI plotters get?
Is he not an FBI agent?!
Somewhere, Muttley Ray Epps snickers.
He’s probably the only one who isn’t an FBI agent.
It was an FBI psych-ops.
All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others...
“plan to kidnap Whitmer and start a civil war‘
Start a civil war? Yeah right. LOL
Adam Fox was reported to have repeated: “I was only following orders”
So the dude that was outside Kavanaugh’s house with a zip ties and a gun should be getting life then, right?
Anyone from the FBI get jail time for setting this up, much like ray epps screaming about storming the capitol on video, he’s free today and others that weren’t even there are in jail still
