Nearly three years after authorities foiled a bizarre plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, the last defendants accused of taking part go on trial Monday.

Eric Molitor and brothers William Null and Michael Null were among 14 men, described by prosecutors as anti-government extremists, charged in the scheme weeks before the November 2020 election. They were angered by Whitmer’s COVID-19 policies, which shut down schools and restricted the economy, investigators said in court filings.

    Outlawing conservatism is essentially outlawing liberalism because outlawing thought is absolutely tyranny.

    Conservatives are all wrong about pretty much everything pretty much all of the time, but a core aspect of liberalism is that they’re allowed to be wrong.
