In early October, the FBI, thru confidential informants, thwarted a plan by right-wing extremists, who plotted to kidnap & kill Michigan’s Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. The FBI arrested 13 men, “who were involved in various plans to attack law enforcement, overthrow the government and ignite a civil war”. The disturbing increase in anti-govt rhetoric & emergence of extremist-groups have upped their recruitment numbers in these times of civil unrest. Coronavirus shutdown-restrictions, fear of minorities, or fear of social change can serve as their excuses for resentment, but these mostly-misogynistic men form misfit male-oriented, social groups wherein they enjoy drilling with firearms, playing with explosives & pondering visions of grandeur, but they are domestic terrorist groups, planning acts of violence; some had contemplated targeting police in their homes; so much for Law & Order! They should join real military service if they want to be heroes! These groups are also fueled by the Divider-in-Chief, with such tweeted rallying cries of: LIBERATE MICHIGAN, WISCONSIN & VIRGINIA! On 10/18/20, a man was arrested for criminal threats in his plot to kidnap & kill Wichita mayor, Brandon Whipple. Trump, on his warpath rallies, threw out criticisms of Whitmer, (newly the target of a terrifying murder-plot) to which his frenzied cult-members shouted: “LOCK HER UP!” Trump criticizes Dr. Fauci, whose entire family has been under threat of attack.
Trump is ‘power-pressuring’ William Barr, to announce charges against Joe Biden, before the election. The New York Post (not the N.Y. Times) recently ran a new version of an old, overworked story on supposedly hacked-emails of Hunter Biden (since that ploy worked out to Trump’s benefit in 2016, against Hillary). Our intel-officials have declared this story: a Russian disinformation campaign maneuver against Joe Biden, cooked-up between Rudy Giuliani & Andriy Derkach, a known Russian-agent. This upcoming election is the most-consequential of our lifetime. Too many guardrails have been overrun by the Executive branch. Trump’s appeals to the vigilantism of illegal-militias, his support of the full-blown, crazed cult-conspiracy theories of QAnon, his attempts to strong-arm the Congress & the Justice department, his overtures & compliance to autocratic leaders & his attacks on our allies, threatens the very fabric of our social, civic, legal construct of Democracy. Trump has invoked militia to Watch The Polls. Voter disinformation campaigns are aimed at suppressing minority votes. Over 221,000 & counting Covid-deaths in America, Covid soaring, millions of jobs lost, fellow-Americans are hungry, evicted, terrified. Opportunities squandered. Herd-mentality?
