Accused conspirators charged in a plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer also discussed "taking" Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, an FBI agent testified at a court hearing Tuesday.

During the hearing in Grand Rapids, Mich., to discuss the charges filed last week against members of a self-proclaimed militia accused of plotting to kidnap Michigan’s Democratic governor, FBI Special Agent Richard Trask revealed that months ago some of the suspects met in Dublin, Ohio, where Northam, also a Democrat, was discussed as a potential target.

A very good distillation of this whole farce, which went over like a lead balloon in its trial run compared to what they had hoped for it. The more details about the participants that would inevitably come out, the more it would undermine their fondest hopes that Trump’s rhetoric had anything to do with this. These are ALL Trump-haters.

This is an FBI/Democrat plot to try to create some bad press for Trump and it’s going nowhere

With a shady lawn and several bare spots, I have fantasized about hijacking a sod truck. If I get behind one in traffic, I start plotting. When did plotting become a crime?

"Something smells about all this."

Lefties planning to kidnap lefty politicians in an attempt to blame it on right-wingers. Wouldn't be the first time that's happened.

The stupidity of the “plotters” is only exceeded by the stupidity of the Fumbling Bumbling Idiots who goaded them on and think we will believe the entire ridiculous plot.

Occam’s Razor: they are a bunch of kooks who apparently think they are Navy Seals or something.

Fresh from storming Area 51, no doubt.

Keep in mind, this is the same FBI that was a willing participant in an attempted (and ongoing) coup.

They also hated Pres. Trump, but that rarely makes it into the story.

Nobody wants to kidnap our governor — he got the COVID (actually, I have not heard a single story from him, or about him, since they announced he had COVID).

But yes, the democrats seriously overstepped on gun control this year, and it pissed off a lot of gun owners of both parties.

The FBI says white supremacists are the biggest threat to America. The problem is they can’t find any white supremacists that are actively threatening America. So, they infiltrate an group of white guys and try to get them to plan some nefarious deeds. The guys complain about the overreach of the governor, and the FBI infiltrator suggests kidnapping her. Then they arrest the guys who were infiltrated and the FBI says AHA! we found the biggest threat to America.
