    1. Are you speaking as a disciple of Putin?
      For namelessness is what he (~tyranny) represents most in this world_

    1. They are loser than Antifa.they didn’t have any effective strike ever seen inception.They don’t have mind to think.They don’t know how to strike the weakest link and create big out come.They haven’t read the ‘the art of war’. They are loser because they read the art of deal. Every white supremacist should drop the book of MaChiavelli ( which is European type of warfare technics (FBI is well aware of it)).start to read and use ‘the art of war’ by sun TZU.

    1. Antifa, blm, weather underground, the 60s free love dope movement. All left wing traitors that should have been shot they still should be shot.

  1. The fall of Rome in real time.
    This is just dangerous and driven by polarisation that is deliberately pushed by Trump and his puppet master.
    Looking at the US is shoocking as a European.

    1. ​@The Aviationist. Please know that there are many more good people than bad here, it’s just that our system has beaten them down & disenfranchised them, leading to them not participating in elections. I truly believe the people are waking up to the real reasons behind our problems as a country. Turn out is already breaking records. The thing is keeping people engaged with politics once Trump is out of office.

    2. The division in this country eerily parallels what took place in 1859-1860 prior to the outbreak of hostilities which resulted in the American Civil War. The North and the South went to war as the spirit of compromise for good or ill gave way to increasing hostility and open violence. The war technically began in states such as Kansas and Missouri as Abolitionist and Pro-Slavery militias went to war each other. The same is happening now, the battle lines are drawn and people from both sides are arming up which has resulted in a nationwide ammo shortage. The results of this election could lead to mass civil unrest, revolution, or possibly a second American Civil War. Whatever the case, countries like Russia, China, Iran, and the DPRK would like nothing more than a weakened America at war with itself. Fall of an empire indeed.

    1. @Chester Jeffrey
      My guess is Because she’s just another Lying, Lefty, Socialist, Hateful Democrat Politician Bimbo. Who Hates America. !!

    2. @Bobby Nelson How would you know what most Americans will say? MOST Americans are patriotic Democrats, who would never dream of such a conspiracy.

    1. Yeah all we need is the beer hall incident to kick off and for trump to release the 2nd most racist book in history plus maybe trump annexing canada and mexico?😂 who knows 26 days is a long time

    2. Actually in reality Democrats support BLM LGBTQ and defunding the police. *FACT

    1. @Dee Jeff if that was the case they be building the prison on top of them . Doubt is an uncomfortable condition, but certainty is a ridiculous one.- Voltaire

    1. @S & C The Byrd you’re thinking of is NOT a Byrd. He was adopted. His birth name was Cornelius Calvin Sale Jr. So, once again your pitiful attempt at deflection and then attack is thwarted by………FACTS and TRUTH. What are you hiding? Go ahead, bare your soul…..if you have one, that is.

  2. Ever wonder why these “people” won’t go out in public unarmed? _it’s because they are cowards!_

    1. they sucking their thumbs, with a security blanket slung over their shoulder… pathetic, playing at civil war.

    2. Not really,, “I love my gun”. See they are a a bunch of old Fat White Guys with E.D. a gun is the only thing they own that is long and hard.

    3. @MIke Trusky don’t misunderstand me, I’m not anti-gun at all and I love my guns too, I just don’t feel the need to take them everywhere with me. As to the rest of your comment, ROFLMAO

  3. The more we learn about Trump’s MAGA and the screwy Republicans the more we realize just how messed up the Republican Party has become.

    1. You just believe all their lies. Witch Whitener & Joe Biden have both claimed that Trump supporters are behind her kidnapping attempt. Here is a video of Brandon Caserta, one of the ringleaders. Trump supporters don’t have Anarchy flags on their wall, and they don’t trash the police…

      Here is another video of Caserta saying, “Trump is not your friend”. Calling POTUS a “tyrant” and an “enemy”. Those who planned this are NOT Trump supporters!

    2. @Retired Then, please explain why any Democrats would pull such a stunt. There are Democrats, Republicans, right wing militias and anarchists, in that order from left to right. I’ve never heard of armed left wing militias, because it doesn’t fit the ideology. Yes, there’s Antifa(cists), which SHOULD be self-explanatory. BLM and NFAC are nonpolitical groups, fighting white supremacists for racial equality. The overwhelming majority of Democrats are peace loving citizens, who believe in helping others, not killing nor rioting.
      This nonsense is what happens whenever a leader incites violence through extremist rhetoric like, “Radical left wing extremists, who want to destroy America.” The Proud Boys, et al heard Trump’s dog whistle, so don’t even try to deny that this rioting and BS is on Trump’s watch and directly attributable to his incompetence.

    3. @The Hermit – Why did democrats make up a fake dossier and fake collusion allegations? All the CIA documents related to Spygate & Clinton’s emails were declassified with no redactions the other day. They’re proof of a democrat/deep state hoax. It’s all about money & power. Quit thinking inside your little box. Why would they lie about the kidnapping & blame it on Trump? The election, Einstein!

    4. @The Hermit – “BLM and NFAC are nonpolitical groups, fighting white supremacists for racial equality.”

      Think so, huh? More than one BLM co-founder has openly admitted they are “trained Marxists”. Marx was a devout Communist, who co-authored “The Communist Manifesto”. So much for them being “nonpolitical”. What are the really fighting for? The destruction of America and power. They’re using the very same tactics used in Russia and China when Communism took over. Look it up.

    5. @The Hermit – The Proud Boys are NOT a “far right extremist group”, and they are certainly not racists. At least 30% of their members are Black, Hispanic, and Asian. Their group President is Hispanic. They don’t attack unless they are threatened or attacked first. Stop being a sheep, man! Don’t believe all the BS the liberal media feeds you. Do your own research to find the truth. You won’t find it on CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABS, NBC, Washington Post, New York Times, or any other lame-stream *misleadia* source. You have to dig deep.

  4. “There were good fascist psycho militia cultists on both sides”
    “no sir, it was just the one side”
    “FAKE NEWS”!

    1. They are loser than Antifa.they didn’t have any effective strike ever seen inception.They don’t have mind to think.They don’t know how to strike the weakest link and create big out come.They haven’t read the ‘the art of war’. They are loser because they read the art of deal. Every white supremacist should drop the book of MaChiavelli ( which is European type of warfare technics (FBI is well aware of it)).start to read and use ‘the art of war’ by sun TZU.

  5. Biden will pick up a few more percentage points on his Michigan lead following the kidnapping attempt of Gretchen by right wing Trump supporting radicals.
    More Michiganders, especially in swing counties like Kent, where Grand Rapids is located, will realize Trump and other right wingers are totally nuts and don’t have America’s best interests in mind – only their own.

    1. timething I would love it if trump knew of the plot however he would just claim it was his idea so therefore the offenders would want to take all the credit.

    2. 120 days and counting. Portland’s on fire. Trump causes forest fires, hurricanes and slit the throats of 215,000.

    3. Cause WM been predators for years, if not hunting animals(BIG GAME) their hunting ppl, they been predators, molsters, killers, all in all just destructive!!!

    1. @Logic B4Religion wronge one of the men arrested in the plot is an anarchist. Brandon Caserta is one of the ringleaders of the group of men arrested for a plot where the group planned to kidnap Governor Gretchen Whitmer. Caserta has an anarchist flag behind him and in YouTube videos trashes police. He’s not a Republican/right-winger, he’s an anarchist.

    2. sad you can’t understand MSM is gaslighting you. They with a militia called
      Wolverine Watchmen they are anti government and anti police. Trump supporters are pro police and pro government. These men are anarchists which would fall more in line with the far left.

    3. @I. Know. You. Are But. What. Am. I I was responding to comments. I didn’t hear MSM lable them. By not labeling them are they trying to let people think they’re Trump’s Praetorian guard? Is that what gaslighting is?
