6 people charged in plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.

The alleged plot also included getting in touch with the members of a Michigan militia. This information was enclosed in the Federal affidavit filed on Thursday. “Several members talked about murdering tyrants or taking a sitting governor”, wrote an FBI agent in the affidavit.

Keith Olbermann finally said the words stochastic terrorism yesterday. How long will it take before the rest of media will finally start calling it out as well?
