We don't really get this. Gretchen Whitmer's X handle is @truegretch, but now she's pulled a clip from an MSNBC interview, cropped it for iPhones and TikTok, and posted it as an episode of "True Gretch." She opens up about some tough times … not the tough times she put the people of her state through during the COVID-19 lockdowns, but about the plot to kidnap and kill her devised by the FBI.
In True Gretch, I open up about some tough times.

Facing a plot to kidnap and kill me was terrifying. It was also a stark reminder of how powerful — and dangerous — words can be, and of how we can all find strength we didn't know we had to take on dark days. pic.twitter.com/UdnVRXQCi6
Is that ending statement her audition to take over for Joe Biden on the Democratic ticket? She's going to be the unity president?
You were in on the fednapping hoax you detestable liar.

Just like the media refuses to ask Kamala Harris about her presence at DNC on Jan 6, no reporter will have the guts to ask Whitmer what she knew and when she knew it.

Recent recordings prove FBI contacted her team BEFORE the FBI-led surveillance of her cottage on Sept 2020. FBI… https://t.co/6mH97AgCVo
FBI installed pole cameras around her property to capture evidence of the alleged “recon” trip that involved as many FBI informants and UCEs as targets.
Once again the media demonstrating its cowardice and/or ignorance to protect a Democratic politician from answering tough questions.
I trust Whitmer as much as I trust the FBI, which isn't a whole helluva lot.

The FBI is scary. They should never do that to a governor.

The plot that the FBI organized?

It was a hoax and Whitmer was in on it. Change my mind.

There were more FBI agents involved in the kidnapping plot than framed perpetrators

Nothing says "pick me to replace Joe" like "the FBI tried to kidnap me"

Dear Gretchen, which one was scarier, BEFORE when the FBI pitched the scheme to you or AFTER, when you read it at your press conference?

It was entrapment. There was no plot. It was the FBI.

You're trash.

Our favorite part is the MSNBC host's very audible gasp at the death threats Whitmer has received. She and Rep. Eric Swalwell should do a podcast on all the death threats they've received.
