The FBI is back: Foiling monster bombing plot by leftists in Los Angeles

What we pay them to do, but extraordinary work all the same, given what could have happened if the thugs succeeded.

Back during the Biden administration, the FBI appeared to be solely focused on rounding up conservatives. At the same time, all kinds of other crimes in their mandate -- spies, terrorism, blue-city corruption -- showed little evidence of activity or results.

Obviously, that allowed the crazies on the left to grow in number and get bolder in their plans, but the results seen now suggest some impressive corrective work. It looks like the FBI -- and the many law enforcement agencies that helped them -- is back.

According to the Washington Free Beacon:

The FBI foiled a New Year's Eve terrorist plot, arresting four members of a radical anti-Israel extremist group accused of planning five coordinated bombings across Los Angeles, the Department of Justice announced Monday. The scheme involved painting Hamas triangles near their targets, and photos show "Free Palestine" stickers scattered across bomb-making stations, according to a criminal complaint.

The complaint indicates that Audrey Illeene Carroll, Zachary Aaron Page, Dante Gaffield, and Tina Lai—who were charged by federal prosecutors with conspiracy and possession of unregistered destructive devices following their Friday arrest—hold significant ties to the anti-Israel movement. They belong to the Turtle Island Liberation Front (TILF), "an anti-capitalist, anti-government movement" centered around militant, anti-Israel rhetoric and open endorsement of violence.

The Beacon speculated that a possible target of the plots was an Israeli defense company called Elbit, which has already been subject to violence in Los Angeles, when another group of dirtbags this month interrupted a presentation by an Elbit official who was explaining to Koreatown's residents how they can defend themselves from thugs.

When doing what you are supposed to do is surprising.

I hope they made the case without their usual amount of entrapment.

And manage to take the perps into custody without killing dozens of innocent men, women and children.

It was probably an FBI bombing plot that they’re blaming on Trantifa.

As do I; that being said,the Whitmer kidnapping plot was the final (long overdue) nail in the coffin for my trust in the FBI.

You have to wonder if this foiled plot is real or is it another Gretchen Whitmer made up kidnapping situation.

I hope it’s real and the FBI is back to doing what it’s supposed to be doing, the recent history of the FBI shows it’s capable of staging false flag arrests to make themselves look good.

Foiling the plot is just the first step. The second step is what counts, and that would be the public execution of everyone who was in any way implicated in that conspiracy!
Of course, that second step would only occur in a truly CIVILIZED COUNTRY!

So all is forgiven? They were probably already working for them and the FBI decided to throw them under the bus.

Call me skeptical. sorry, they can trap anyone for anything and have proven this in the past. Time to defund and get rid of the FBI and most of the DOJ. And CIA should be folded into the DIA.

Why does this feel like a distraction masquerading as an image-improvement campaign? Bondi Beach, Brown U, all this violence and somehow, the Fibbers have saved America again.

The timing is suspect. The Fibbers are suspect. I hope the story is factual and the threat really removed, but anything involving the Fibbers is usually a lot of BS and theater. My opinion only.

I still say it’s a shame there are so many news events that take away publicity from this story.

When a big 911 style event takes place soon by the illegal immigrants who are known terrorists entering the US as the authorities have said for a long time, it will become the top story. Too late.

No way to know exactly how many are “Special Interests Aliens” (SIAs) and “Known and Suspected Terrorists” (KSTs) as the technical terms apply to them. And how many become radicalized from watching the Dems or going to radical websites.

They also caught a Nov 7 terrorist hiding in Lafayette Louisiana for the past three months.

And the Charlie Kirk murderer.
