FLINT, Mich. (Michigan News Source) – Four Michigan GOP gubernatorial candidates took to social media to announce their support of fellow candidate Ryan Kelley, whom F.B.I. officials arrested on Thursday morning at his Allendale home.
Unsealed court documents show Kelley faces four misdemeanor counts for “his involvement” in the January 6th events at the U.S. Capitol.

Kelley is one of five GOP candidates looking to secure the party’s nomination in the August 2nd primary to take on Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in November. They threw their support towards Kelley on Thursday.
Are we expected to believe the corrupt FBI happened to schedule a raid on Ryan Kelley’s home the same day of the J6 production in DC?
The timing of this looks a lot like another example of political prosecution by a Democrat Party notorious for weaponizing government.

Ralph Rebandt posted on Facebook, saying “The left knows no bounds in their attempt to hold on to power by distracting from the abysmal economy, high inflation, high gas prices, and overall ineptitude of President Biden and Gretchen Whitmer.” He went on to say, “I am praying for Ryan and his family. May God have mercy on us all.”

Kevin Rinke tweeted his support for Kelley along with a video clip which shows President Joe Biden joking on Wednesday during an interview with Jimmy Kimmel about sending political opponents to jail.
I respect Ryan Kelley and have met him out on the trail. My hope is that the FBI is acting appropriately, because the timing here raises serious questions. Praying for him and his family. https://t.co/h8vER5T2R1

Garrett Soldano called Thursday’s arrest of Kelley “a sad day in America.”
We extend our prayers to the Kelley family.
It’s a sad day in America when the FBI has become an arm of the Democrat Party. Biden’s FBI is busy targeting parents and intimidating Republicans while crime runs rampant across America. pic.twitter.com/PxddJeBiiI
