  My area was forced to do well by our governor, which naturally meant they wanted to thank her by plotting to kidnap and murder her.

      • Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot

      On October 8, 2020, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced the arrests of 13 men suspected of orchestrating a domestic terror plot to kidnap American politician Gretchen Whitmer, the Governor of Michigan, and otherwise using violence to overthrow the state government. Some have labeled the attempt as an example of stochastic terrorism, where violent rhetoric by prominent figures inspired the plot.
