In breaking news, the FBI announced today that they thwarted a domestic terrorist group's plot to violently overthrow Michigan's state government and kidnap Governor Gretchen Whitmer.

We're grateful that Governor Whitmer is safe, thanks to law enforcement's swift actions. The individuals charged should be held accountable and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Add your name to send a clear and unmistakable message that we stand with Governor Whitmer against hate.

When Donald Trump tweeted "Liberate Michigan!" he gave safe harbor to right-wing militia groups to storm our capitol. While Trump declared "these are very good people," State Republicans failed to stand against hate. They're too scared of the division they have created to put an end to it.

Then last week, when Trump stood on the debate stage and told a hate group to "stand back and stand by," he issued a rallying cry and a call to action. The words of our leaders matter. They have the power to bring us together in challenging times like these, but they can also drive us apart.

Let's be clear: Hatred, bigotry, and violence have no place in Michigan. That's not who we are and that's not what we stand for. We must stand against hate and stand with Governor Whitmer.

Will you add your name to stand with Governor Whitmer and fight these flames of hatred?
