The media will try and paint these idiots as Republicans, but clearly they are anarchists. See Robby Starbuck's Twitter thread on videos he was able to grab. But of course the pages are being scrubbed off the internet per Robby in later tweets in the thread. These appear to be people that have very strange beliefs and that all government is evil.

I'm glad they were caught. But my question is: Why isn't the FBI ALSO arresting anarchists who are crossing state lines and burning down businesses, rioting, looting, and causing billions of dollars in damage? Can't they go after ALL the anarchists?

They failed to say “in Minecraft” after every sentence.

Wow dude, like dude.
Bears quoting:
Democrats were never held responsible when their base murdered a Trump supporter in Portland, shot up Republican lawmakers at a congressional baseball game, attacked a U.S. Senator and his wife as they exited the Republican National Convention, and terrorized American cities and suburbs for months on end. But Democrats didn't waste any time blaming President Trump on Thursday for an anarchist plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D).

Whitmer herself said the foiled plot against her was the result of hate groups listening to the president's words to "stand back and stand by," which the president said at the first presidential debate. According to Whitmer, hate groups interpreted these words "as a rallying cry, as a call to action."
Honestly at this point I wouldn't doubt that Whitmer and the FBI put this anarchists up to it in the first place. That way Whitmer becomes "the victim" and all who legitimately criticize her are silenced.



If you’re submitting budget proposals for a law enforcement agency, for an intelligence agency, you’re not going to submit the proposal that “We won the war on terror and everything’s great,” cuz the first thing that’s gonna happen is your budget’s gonna be cut in half. You know, it’s my opposite of Jesse Jackson’s ‘Keep Hope Alive’—it’s ‘Keep Fear Alive.’ Keep it alive.

Part of the plan to end the second amendment. If militias are bad then the second amendment is bad.

So the FBI and informant was pressing the others on the plot to kidnap the governor?

and that it was the informants and undercover agents who "pushed" others to do illegal things. "One of the most active leaders was your informant," Graham said.

Apparently the "Terrorism" charges were as fake as the election:

Judge dismisses terrorism charges for men accused in Whitmer plot

Thanks MSM for terrorizing the entire nation with your fake news!!! The population really needed to be put in our place and not question Whitmer's unconstitutional acts. :anamatedbanana :anamatedbanana :anamatedbanana
“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary.”

They might want to start with the citizens of CHAD / CHAZ who actually committed an insurrection by seizing privately owned property along with publicly owned lands and roads and then actually seceded from the United States.
