Ep 222: The Plot To Kidnap The Governor

PodcastOne
About this episode

In October 2020, the shocking arrests of multiple members of two militia groups were announced. The charges included allegations of an alleged terrorist plot - whose target was Gretchen Whitmer, the governor of Michigan.

But with an FBI informant seemingly at the helm, would the jury convict them?

NOTE: I will be taking a short break for the holidays. I’ll be back with a new episode on Monday, January 9. Happy Holidays!
