Virginia Governor Northam Targeted In Kidnap Plot

FBI now says militia group also planned to kidnap Virginia’s governor.

(Tuesday, October 13, 2020) – The group accused of plotting to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer also discussed targeting Virginia Governor Ralph Northam.  That revelation today from the FBI during a court hearing.

FBI agent Richard Trask says the militia members discussed taking a sitting governor, specifically governors of Michigan and Virginia over their coronavirus shutdown orders.

The FBI obtained the information from a person who attended a June 6th meeting in Dublin, Ohio where the plot was discussed.   According to reports, that person later became an informant.  The FBI thwarted the plot nearly two weeks ago charging 13 people in an alleged domestic terror plot.


The alleged scheme included overthrowing several state governments.
