Attack on the Governor

For John, BLUF:  I admit that is campaign year is as disappointing as 1964.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Biden Blames Trump for Gretchen Whitmer Kidnap Attempt, Without Evidence:  ‘Why Can’t the President Just Say Stop?’

Here is the sub-headline:

Former Vice President Joe Biden blamed President Donald Trump on Thursday for a foiled kidnapping plot by a group of extremists who intended to abduct Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.

From Breitbart, by Joel B Pollak, 8 October 2020.

Here is the lede plus one:

Though it did not name a specific political ideology, the FBI’s criminal complaint alleges that the members of the group “talked about creating a society that followed the U.S. Bill of Rights and where they could be self-sufficient.”  Two apparently met at a Second Amendment rally.

One member of the group, Brandon Caserta, was seen in an online video in front of an anarchist flag.

Not just Vice President Biben, but also Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer is point to the President.  Is this to say the FBI, and DOJ, is in the hands of the Democrats, protecting a Democratic Party Governor from the evil Republicans?  I hope not.

Looking three dimensionally, don’t Far Left and Far Right bend back and touch, sort of like a wrist band or bracelet?

The difference between the Nazi crowd and the Communist crowd wasn’t the number killed, but the number of Jews killed.  The Nazis killed more Jews because they believed Margaret Sanger.  The Communists killed more Ukrainians (and others) because—food.

The inability to distinguish between Anarchists and other political philosopies is not helpful.
