In video of the accused Michigan kidnapping plotters released by prosecutors there is an almost unnoticed reference to the militia plotters somehow being involved in “doing a recount,” and a threat to shoot or banish “vermin” and “criminal-ass government thugs” the militia “come up on” while doing so.
What recount?
Usually references to “doing a recount” uttered three weeks before an election refer to recounting ballots, and ballots are generally only recounted when the loser challenges the loss as somehow inaccurate or illegitimate, and a recount subsequently takes place. The banana republic version of a recount is when the dictator violently takes possession of ballots and “discovers” the initial count favouring his opposition was “in error.”
Are these dangerous, violent fascist militia thugs expecting to actually be in the ballot-counting room during a post-election recount? And if they are, is this expectation just a delusional fantasy, or (our worst fear) have the forces of Trumpism actually been working behind the scenes to make arrangements for armed Brownshirt “enforcers” to forcibly remove “troublemakers” from the recount process.
One thing for sure, when he made this video alleged terrorist Brandon Caserta certainly talked liked he fully expected to be in a position to liquidate his political enemies during an expected recount.
Did anyone else catch this?
Is anyone else alarmed?
