^^^ Yep, not some lone-ranger lunatic threatening to kill someone, who was easily caught before he could do any actual harm.

This Kelley clown tried to kill democracy, yet MAGAMorons will STILL vote for the ass. Now THAT's a real crime.

Whell's Republicans in Michigan are a hot mess: Investigations for tampering with voting machines. Half of the candidates busted for fake signatures. Lead gubernatorial candidate raided and arrested.

From America's "Law and Order" party. LOL.

Typical right wing projection/whataboutism.

The far right terrorist threat dwarfs that of the far left. Indeed, this is the America that conservatives have been advocating for decades - one in which armed citizens confront whatever they deem to be "tyranny." Even after all of the recent mass murders, 44% of Republicans told pollsters that mass shootings should be accepted as part of a free society.
I can post about it if it'll help you, Finn. And by the way, all I did was post a link to a news story. Its you with your post above that are engaging in projection/whataboutism.

Uh, no, the candidates weren't busted for that, though campaigns should have vetted the signature collectors a bit more thoroughly.

Faux “News” baselessly accuses Joe Biden of being behind the failed plot to assassinate Brett Kavanaugh

https://www.alternet.org/2022/06/fox...den-kavanaugh/

Is there a “conservative” left in this country who doesn’t simply lie about everything!?

Why Kavanaugh?
Why not established activist idealogues like Alito? Or Thomas?
Is this really the first threat on a member of the Supremes? Or just the latest? Or just the first one that got Faux Noise attention?

Uh, yes. The candidates campaigns' (for which the candidates are responsible) were indeed busted for collecting fake signatures. If a candidate is incapable of doing something as simple as getting real people to sign petitions, they have no business in government (per Michigan law). And yes, the leading gubernatorial candidate was indeed arrested for participation on Jan. 6.

OK, you've got a scoop, I guess. Please list the candidates for MI Gov who have been charged in this particular fake signature debacle.
