Live Blogging Far Right Domestic Terrorists’ First Hearing In Michigan…

We will get underway as soon as all the appearances are entered on the record… on hold now.

✿ Defense attorneys have appeared. We are underway.

✿ Two defendants will have their preliminary hearing Friday; all others to go forward now.

✿ FBI Special Agent Trask testifying now… nine years as FBI — 15 years in law enforcement.

✿ He is the affiant in the charging documents. FBI monitored these defendants since January 2020.

✿ Dublin, Ohio meeting occurred — multiple self-titled “militias” from five different states met. Not real militias at all.

✿ Discussed both Michigan and Virginia Governors — and threats of harm — due to “lock-down” orders to ameliorate COVID-19.

✿ Most of these defendants were at the Michigan state capitol armed protests. [These are far right terror groups.]

✿ Wanted to storm the capitol with 200 men, kidnap the Michigan Governor, and then put her “on trial” — before 2020 election….

✿ By mid-August the plan had evolved to attacking her at her lake side vacation home, and blowing up a bridge that provides access to it… the group was scouting and surveying the sites, creating maps, timing police distance/response times…. [This is truly… jaw-slackingly terror-inducing.]

That’s all I needed to hear — end of the live blogging. These are not left wing groups, you congenital liar, John Hinderaker.

Do refresh often as content will be added in chunks.
