Man who fired nail gun at FBI building called for violence on Truth Social in days after Mar-a-Lago search

A man identified by two law enforcement sources as Ricky Shiffer, who died in a confrontation with police after he fired a nail gun at a Cincinnati FBI building, appeared to post online in recent days about his desire to kill FBI agents shortly after former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence was searched.

Two law enforcement officials confirmed Shiffer’s name. Shiffer was at the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021, according to three people aiding law enforcement who saw him in photos taken from the day of the attack; however, it’s unclear whether he went inside the building. Shiffer frequently posted about his attendance at the Capitol on social media.

On Truth Social, a social media platform founded by Trump’s media company, Trump Media & Technology Group, Shiffer appeared to have posted a message detailing his failed attempt to gain entry to the FBI building.

“Well, I thought I had a way through bullet proof glass, and I didn’t. If you don’t hear from me, it is true I tried attacking the F.B.I., and it’ll mean either I was taken off the internet, the F.B.I. got me, or they sent the regular cops while,” the account @RickyWShifferJr wrote at 9:29 a.m. ET, shortly after police allege the shooting occurred.

Shiffer posted to Truth Social multiple times in the days after the FBI searched Trump’s residence in Palm Beach, Florida, about wanting to engage in violence. One post called for people to arm themselves and be ready for “combat.”

“We must not tolerate this one,” he wrote.

Shiffer's Truth Social account, which was seen by NBC News on Thursday evening, has since become unavailable.

With all the political shenanigans going on it’s not surprising that somebody would snap. And as long as these shenanigans continue, don’t be surprised if even more people snap.

Which alphabet agency is now going to shutdown Truth social for hosting domestic terrorism content?

If serious intelligent folks ever get active

Then what

It happened remember

Some Innocents slaughtered

I haven’t forgotten that impact

Don’t think for a second beyond this forum extremists think he’ll get a statue one day

We are in dangerous territory and I’m old just watching bewildered not every thinking younger whites would get so brainwashed in such numbers

But this notion please don’t provoke deep state is to me well they are already provoked lol

Taking full advantage

They raided our leaders home fishing

Rifled Melanias thongs

And we can add 50 excesses beyond that directed at us from Obama on

Behaving for them doesn’t work

I’m sure what does

Red wave hopes?

Really with Mitch and Kevin?

Come on

All we have is I think the numbers

They own all the other real estate

We need more whites to get off their butts

Turn more non kali Mexicans etc

And black males

Beyond that it’s pretty dark and uncharted

Might have been a 22 cal powder actuated nail gun aka Ramset which is actually a brand name. No compressor required.

I've seen them drive a hardened nail like fastener into 3/8" steel walled pipe. Problem is, "bullet proof glass" is often thick Lexan aka polycarbonate plastic. You could drive nails into that stuff all day and it won't shatter. You'll just have a hunk of Lexan with a bunch of nails in it. My old plastics supplier had a 2 inch cube of Lexan with a bullet embedded in it sitting on their counter.

I agree that .....”these days I see nothing but meatheads trying to play soldier”......

But they are the ones the left hopes they can trigger.....Rubio got it right when he said their next step after the raid is to target any who oppose that happening.... and Garland did exactly that in his speech.

We know there are off the wall nuts amongst the leftists and should not be surprised there are a few on our side of the political spectrum. Doesn’t mean they are true “conservatives” but they align themselves with the “right.”

I would hazard that the incidence rate is about a fourth of what it is on the left of less.

A mass casualty event at a Trump rally is not off the table.

I hadn't thought of this, but you're right the deep state is a cornered animal and will stop at nothing to take out Trump at this point.

Currently no events are scheduled according to Trumps's own website.

The so called right is not a thimble

More like a bathtub

In a shooting war you won’t have time to discern nor should you

That sort of thing can be settled after victory if it happens

The Franco side in Spain managed to keep catholic religionists and constitutionalists and nationalists and fascists all together to defeat the fairly Godless communists

That’s the way to do it I think

Neocons like to promote a pure right and throw my ancestors under the bus to prove how noble they are

I ain’t buying it never have

You have authoritarians on the right

Deal with them after the woke commies are subdued

Btw woke is like a whole other ideology nothing to do with Marxism

We have a fair amount on our side too

This is a fresh path one can only apply so much from the past

But if a racist comes to your farm with ammo and supplies you need you ain’t gonna play Shapiro YouTube shorts for him or send him away

He posted right before?

And his stuff wasn’t immediately wiped?

Feels like a set-up.

Franco also had the NAZIs there practicing blitzkrieg against his foes.

He joined truth social on August 1, pretty suspicious to me (Ray Epps, redux).

The Man that never was! False Flag committed by the FBI complete with an actor, fake social media postings and rehearsed actions by all involved.

I no longer trust anything coming from this bunch in power.
