“It Looks to Me Like a Railroad Job” – President Trump Says He May Look at FBI’s Whitmer Kidnapping Scam that Landed 3 Innocent Men in Prison
President Donald Trump took questions from the media on Wednesday after Judge Jeanine Pirro was sworn in as interim US Attorney for the District of Columbia.
At one point, a reporter asked President Trump if he will pardon the men who were set up in the FBI’s Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping scam.
Question: “Will you pardon the people who are accused of conspiring to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer””
President Trump: “I am going to look at it. I will take a look at it. It’s been brought to my attention. I did watch the trial. It looked to me like somewhat of a railroad job. I’ll be honest with you. It looks to me like some people said some stupid things. You know they were drinking and they said some stupid things. But I’ll take a look at that.”

In an October 2020 press conference, before the 2020 election, the FBI announced it had thwarted a plot by a so-called “right-wing militia” to kidnap and kill Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
The Whitmer kidnapping plot was in the media 24/7 and used to bludgeon Trump with just a few weeks to go until Election Day.
The FBI used at least 12 informants in the Michigan Whitmer kidnapping case.
