An armed, right-wing militia hatched a plot to kidnap the governor of Michigan and violently overthrow the state government, FBI says

Two crossed lines that form an 'X'. It indicates a way to close an interaction, or dismiss a notification.

Whitmer landed in the crosshairs of right-wing protesters earlier this year after she signed an executive order imposing a statewide lockdown to curb the spread of the coronavirus. According to Detroit News, the defendants allegedly reached out to members of an armed, right-wing militia in Michigan.

“Armed right-wing militia hatched a plot to kidnap the governor of Michigan and violently overthrow the state government, the FBI says.” This is not a “militia.” It is a terrorist group plotting crimes against the state. Call them what they are: words matter.

Stop calling them Militia!!!! They are Terrorist!!! Terrorists terrorism just because they are white you call them militia. You are what’s wrong with America!!!! amjoyshow maddow MSNBC BBCNews BBCBreaking FaceTheNation MTPDaily CBSNews CBSLA FOXLA NewsHour

Only during a Trump presidency....go figure

I thought only the white, racist southern Democrats acted like this. Surely, conservative/right wing American Patriots, would never attempt such a treasonous act. They’re the Party of Lincoln after all.

Threats of political violence, even on social media, are always wrong.

Pys op

um what am i missing here. First you state 5 guys ' reached out to members of an armed, right-wing militia ' who obviously were Not part of the militia, but the headline & tweets say 'An armed, right-wing militia hatched a plot' Well which is it? A militia, or 5 guys planning

Well this is pretty much what would happen if saying one would try to do a coup d'état of potus or other, it's an act of treason, especially if it's a small faction not giving specifics other than we hate this person

This is so sad! The world that realDonaldTrump wants to turn America into just to hold onto a failed presidency.

When you rule like a dictator, people will try to overthrow you. Seen countless times in history

They paid a dude $8,600 to meet with these people and talk about overthrowing the government and killing politicians and cops. It says they raided a house but doesn’t say if they actually found anything. I hope they had more than what equates to Ice T lyrics for criminal charges'

This should be amusing.

Im old enough to remember don the con calling for mi to be liberated!!!

But ANTIFA...

Trump’s America.
