The entire world feels like it’s going insane. Ukraine is still making headlines each day, Biden’s half of a brain and word vomit threaten to throw us into WWIII, and Will Smith’s slap at the behest of his repulsive wife is still rippling through time spurring fingers to take to keyboards. If you forgot that a group of dudes in Michigan were on trial for allegedly planning to kidnap one of the preeminent murderers of elderly adults in American history, I forgive you.
They were on trial. As of yesterday, two of the men have been acquitted of all charges while two others were granted a mistrial after the jury deadlocked. The case was of such importance, though, not necessarily because a group of potheads cooked up the idea to kidnap a sitting governor but because they were surrounded by FBI agents who supposedly gave them the idea and urged them along the entire time.
