Chris Farrell's On Watch Podcast

For more than a decade, Laura Stotts has traveled backroads and small towns documenting historic homes, cemeteries, and overlooked places. Pairing photography with the human stories connected to them, she launched Diary of Abandonment, a long-term effort to remember places, stories, and times.

What began as photographing old structures has grown into a broader body of work centered on preservation, historical research, and storytelling. Her work extends beyond the lens into cemetery documentation, headstone cleaning, and volunteer efforts honoring veterans and their histories.

In the waning months before the 2020 presidential election, the Biden-Harris regime and its cheerleaders in the media breathlessly hyped a sensational “domestic terrorism” plot: a ragtag group of disgruntled Michigan militia types allegedly scheming to kidnap Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer from her vacation home, blow up a bridge, and spark chaos. The FBI swooped in with fanfare on October 8, 2020, arresting 13 men and touting it as a major victory against right-wing extremism. Bill and Mike Null, and Eric Molitor were all found “Not Guilty” of material support to terrorism in Michigan state court. Now they tell their story.
