Hes part of the group that plotted to kidnap the governor of Michigan.
He was actually a pretty good kid.
Jr Firefighter, Jr EMT.
Went to the army and was medically discharged.
Not sure what happened in between. I saw him in November of 2019 when he came back to visit and thats when he told me about the army situation.
Cults will do that. But Im sure he met some folks in those circles that had some extremist ideas. Also from a very red area.

The Taliban is trying to return Afghanistan to its "traditional" roots, 13th century medievalism, a tiny, religiously backed ruling class and a massive, uneducated (except in their version of the Koran) population of peasants, same as the "patriots" assaulting the Capitol. Well, almost. The Capitol insurrectionists (or, at least many of their co-conspirators) want a theocracy based (very loosely, often incorrectly) on the Bible.
