The most surprising part to me is the FBI actually investigating and prosecuting rather than funding and assisting.

        FBI plant: "Hey guys, I know we are always talking about how the government is treading on us and everything. But how about we do something about it? Like, uh, what if we kidnap the governor?'

        Militia member: "Dude you're so smart. Alright, let's do it."

        They don't actually seem that serious or organized lol. They are psychos for sure, but are dumb as shit.

        They were not organized. They had the opsec of a guy yelling in a walmart dairy aisle and the threat model of a knitting club.
