Suspected Antifa activist busted with pipe bomb, ‘direct action’ plan near Jan. 6 rally, cops say
A Florida man suspected of being affiliated with Antifa was busted near a Jan. 6 anniversary rally in Florida carrying a homemade pipe bomb and a detailed plan of “direct action,” authorities said.
Garrett James Smith was arrested Thursday — his 22nd birthday — as a local congressman joined more than 80 others at a rally supporting a member of the Oath Keepers being held on Capitol riot charges.
Officers chased Smith — who “stuck out” dressed all in black, including a ski mask — when he suddenly sprinted away from the rally outside Pinellas County Jail, local Sheriff Bob Gualtieri told a press conference.
Officers then found a homemade pipe bomb in his backpack, which “had the potential to be very harmful,” the sheriff warned.
“It could have been very destructive, and he could have hurt a lot of people,” Gualtieri said, adding that he was certain Smith was “prepared” to set off the bomb before he was spooked and fled.

What? So he can be released after he posts bond unlike the Jan.6th protestors who have been rotting in the DC gulag all year?
Whatever became of that “suspicious package” in DC yesterday? It was referenced in the morning, and then I saw no more mention of it.
This guy may be good for those crimes as well.
Hey CORRUPT FBI FIBBERS.......FIND THE PERSON WHO PLACED THE PIPE BOMBS LAST YEAR ON JAN.6!!
Did you see his checklist. He didn’t make that himself!! That’s a trained terrorist. The FBI and CIA should be all over this.
The reality is that the FBI and CIA will do nothing, at the behest of the DOJ and it’s supreme terrorist enablers. He will get Kamala to pay his bail, or another Soros linked front group/individual.
Oh....Maybe I am just cynical now...perhaps Andrew McCabe and James Comey will be right down to investigate and help prosecute the left wing terrorists.
Good thing this happened n Florida, the FBIAS can’t provide cover for this guy.
Hell, the feebs and spooks are the ones who trained him as part of their Summer of '20 color revolution, leading up to their successful coup d'état at 3am on November 4th.
Keep watching for my crazy drug up cousin to pop up in the news. He has gone woke and hanging out with Antifa.
Law enforcement is looking for him.
The checklist suggests a mentally ill, or otherwise challenged individual who was lead or manipulated. It seems really strange to carry a list with you that details the clothing you are supposed to be wearing. Who does that? Checklists are used in many situations when people are doing something complicated and mistakes are possible, but if you need a list of what clothes to wear unless it is your first day on the junior hockey league then you probably have some challenges, and are not some kind of criminal or terrorist mastermind.
If you look at the checklist, it’s a writing style of a 5th grader. Supposedly a guy with no social media accounts. Gamer, I suspect.
I suspect those bombs were planted by FBI agents.
And he’ll probably raise that for bail! Yet our January 6 trespassers are largely held without bail after an entire year.
From the article:
“Officers chased Smith — who “stuck out” dressed all in black, including a ski mask — when he suddenly sprinted away from the rally outside Pinellas County Jail, local Sheriff Bob Gualtieri told a press conference.”
Leave it to Florida Man to dress inconspicuously and blend with the crowd. He played a stupid game and won a stupid prize.
So, Antifa exists.
YES! What did Xiden say during the debate???
