During a press conference yesterday morning, amid desperate efforts to placate political pressure to maintain the narrative of a lone-wolf bomber - not terrorist - who may have "had a beef" and just happened to be a muslim, William Sweeney, the assistant director in charge of the FBI's New York division, stated unequivocally:
"There is no indication that the suspect was on the FBI's terror radar" adding that there was "no indication that there's a [terrorist] cell operating" in the New York area and had no information about Ahmad Khan Rahami's "path to radicalization."
Phew - so we can rest assured that all the money spent on systems and surveillance was not wasted and this was perhaps just some mentally unstable man (who just happened to be Muslim and taken a trip or two to Afghanistan).
However,as Bloomberg reports, 24 hours later, The FBI has changed its tune...
Suspected N.Y.-N.J. bomber Ahmad Khan Rahami came across FBI's radar in response to 2014 domestic incident in which police complaint was made, according to U.S. law enforcement official.
Rahami was flagged in the FBI's Guardian system, which is a general database of tips and reports of suspicious activity, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the continuing investigation into the bombs set off in Manhattan and in New Jersey.
It wasn't immediately clear if Rahami was ever interviewed by the FBI.
Rahami was arrested in 2014 on weapons and aggravated assault charges for allegedly stabbing a relative in the leg in a domestic incident, according to court documents cited by the New York Times.

FBI must be run by muslims
Boston brother bombers were on FBI radar
Orlando shooter was on FBI radar
NYC bomber was on FBI radar
Semms the FBI radar has heen FUBO’d to render muzzie terrorists invisible.
Time to turn that radar off, remove all its Mgt. heads, employees etc. and start fresh as a Non-muzzie support organization.
They are doing to the FBI what they did to the IRS and other agencies.
They start with the advantage that practically all federal agencies are staffed and run by Democrats. But they also let it be known that people who don’t go along with the liberal program/agenda will see their careers jeopardized. Trust me, the message is not subtle at all.
Comey OUT!
Those are two possibilities.
There are others... :-)
Determined to destroy their own reputation.
The X-files has become reality.....
FBI=Federal Bureau of Islamization
FBI is a pretty worthless outfit.
Trump should dismantle the FBI and replace it with something better.
I knew it, and I called it immediately. They’re always working with the FBI or the CIA, or both, without fail.
Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.
Their aversion to “profiling” led them to clear him.
I guess the “radar” wasn’t working too well...after all, he did the bombing and his relatives escaped the country. Great work there fbi.
Just like our armed forces, get rid of the Generals that can think on their own. Then you have control, same with FBI, replace all the leaders with yes men and there you go. The Dismantling of the US is happening right before our eyes.
Thoroughly politicized FBI bump for later....
