Violent Threats Force Michigan to Do Its Electoral College Vote Behind Closed Doors

The "Stop the Steal" movement is calling for a protest at the Capitol as Michigan electors prepare to confirm President-elect Joe Biden's win.

The Michigan Legislature closed all of its buildings in Lansing Monday due to “credible threats of violence,” as Michigan electors prepare to confirm President-elect Joe Biden’s victory during Monday’s nationwide meetings of the Electoral College.

Lansing was the site of intense right-wing anti-government protests earlier this year, mostly targeted at Gov. Gretchen Whitmer over COVID-19 restrictions. Now, members of the “Stop the Steal” movement to overturn the results of the election have made calls on social media for a Monday protest at the state Capitol, after a weekend when four people were stabbed and 33 people were arrested at similar right-wing pro-Trump protests in Washington, D.C.

“Calling all patriots to the Lansing Capitol steps on Monday 10-4pm,” a Stop the Steal Michigan Facebook page posted Saturday. “Biden MI Electors is wrong! Fraud result is illegitimate.”

Threatening public officials,

and their families,

with (sexual) violence,

doxxing them,

harassing them at workplaces and homes.


Three Percent takeover of Whidbey Island Grange shows how proto-fascist forces creep into mainstream



they have been able to insinuate themselves within the traditional mainstream,

sometimes by attempting to create a false image through the adoption of labels that create an image of legitimacy:

Think of the seditious “Patriot” movement with its “III Percent” militias and

Oath Keepers that try to claim a nonexistent connection to the Cons ution.

they sometimes actually try to take over existing ins utions,

such as the various attempts by the alt-right to gain a foothold within local Republican parties.

Organizers rebranded the rally a “protest,”

one that was part evangelical Christian tent revival,

part pro-Trump political event,

all wrapped up in patriotic bunting

to disguise the ugly proto-fascist politics lurking just below the surface.

Among the speakers that day was a man in a Revolutionary War costume with a tricorn hat.

Eyup.

Establishment GOP has a hard time distancing themselves from the out fascists in their midst.

Thoroughly anti-democracy, and they make no bones about it.

It's like the entire right-wing of is self-radicalizing.
