Plotting assassinations of governors.

Yes, there were 3 domestic terrorists (with 2 FBI agents effectively suggesting it...).

My concern is more at the government level - are there any threats from conservative republicans in office?

From the rights perspective, it appears they are concerned about a lot of amendment issues; which seem far larger than the isolated incidents of domestic terrorists.

I see some indications that the Michigan assassination plot was not planned by people holding typically right-wing views. For example https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/local/michigan/2020/1....
Well, let's go with a Washington elected Republican, that the Republican party refused to cut ties, who published a manifesto that stated:

> the enemy must "surrender on terms" of no abortions, no same-sex marriage, no communism and "must obey Biblical law", then continued: "If they do not yield — kill all males".
