The grievances and conspiracy theories that motivated the man’s violent plot are the same ones that brought the “God’s Amy” convoy to the southern border last week.

Notice how the GOP has zero legislative accomplishments to speak of, and I say it's because this dude and his bombs are their greatest ambition.

"We are all domestic terrorists." - CPAC, where they had a guy dressed up in American flags sitting in a mock jail cell.

They are literally trying to turn their supporters into terrorists and it's working. Time to start calling it what it is.

Tennessee Man Plotted to Bring Guns and Explosives to the Border, FBI Says

Last summer, Faye told the undercover employee that it was “time to step things up” and said he was gathering things that go “boom boom boom when you want them to” and “a few things that go bang and go fast if you know what I mean.”

I really want to know what he was planning to blow up on the border.

[–] JustZ@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

Isn't it obvious? He was going to go blow up the deep state, or was looking for Paul Pelosi.

Blow up the boarder, no boarder, no illegal boarder crossing. Checkmate liberals!

You'd think he would want that to be there.

Clearly they are a antifa plant. /s

[–] Railing5132@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

No, it's anteee-fa. Like 'leviOsa'.

It’s just a matter of time until someone blows himself up. Let’s hope they don’t hurt someone else.

Mexico should seriously consider building a wall to keep these kinds of people out.

They kinda already are... and they're making USA pay for it.

They’re not sending their best.

Actually they are. It's just not a very high bar.
