The more we learn about the attempted fed-napping ... sorry ... kidnapping of Gretchen Whitmer, the more it seems like something just stinks.
Here's what the federal prosecutor told the jury about the Whitmer plotters Trump said he might pardon

(per WSJ):
“These defendants were outside a woman’s house in the middle of the night with night-vision goggles, and guns, and a plan to kidnap her.”
Yeah, that sounds really bad.
But, as usual, there is more to it:
The FBI assets drove the targets to her summer cottage—where Whitmer had allowed the FBI to install cameras months before to capture evidence—to conduct “recon.” The FBI also purchased the goggles and other gear.

Why, oh why would the FBI do any of this?
Don't answer that, we're totally being facetious as we know exactly why they likely did this. *adjusts tin foil hat*
This is a common ploy of the FBI. To set everything up, find a patsy or patsies, then arrest said patsies after recruiting them. Then make a big media splash to paint the patsies as far right extremists.

Ahem.
Sounds like Wicked Whitmer colluded with the entrapment.

We're certainly not experts on the matter but ... yup.
If she allowed them to put up cameras in her summer cabin? She had to know.
So the FBI planned the trip, bought the gear, filmed the “crime,” and still expected us to believe it was organic?
