Washington (AFP) – US authorities announced the arrests Monday of the co-founder of the notorious Atomwaffen neo-Nazi group and a woman he met online in the latest extremist plot to attack public electricity facilities.

The FBI said Brandon Russell, who helped found Atomwaffen in 2015, was arrested in Florida, after spending four years in prison for possessing bomb-making materials.

The woman, Sarah Beth Clendaniel, was arrested in Maryland where she had also spent time in prison for armed robbery.

Guided by Russell, Clendaniel had planned to acquire a gun and to attack five electrical substations around Baltimore, Maryland, the FBI said.

In February 2022, three men with neo-Nazi ties pleaded guilty in Columbus, Ohio to plotting to use rifles and explosives to damage power infrastructure in various locations.

In 2021 five men who allegedly had white supremacist beliefs were charged in North Carolina with planning similar attacks.

FBI wants you to believe that the problem of white supremacy in America is bigger than it is. I’m not buying it.

I don’t really believe it’s primarily neo-nazis targeting power stations. I believe most of these attacks are by environmentalist whackos.

Watermelons. Green on the outside, red on the inside.

How many attacks did this guy actually carry out?

[ProudDeplorable]

My question is: Did Ray Epps bust them?

Oh please.

Brandon Russell & Sarah Beth Clendaniel

He was sentenced in 2020 to 5 years in prison for homemade explosives devices, according the the NY Slimes, so why is he even out on the streets?

Wonder how long this Atomwaffen clown has worked for the FBI, or is it the CIA? False flag so big it could have covered the 3 story balloon. Our leaders are idiots and the propagandists they employ make them look smart. Pathetic. They should change our National Anthem to the Baby Elephant March. A clown show of morons so epic it defies belief.

I believe they are among the criminals that the Brandon regime and DNC use as their ‘militia’. Antifa, street gangs, drug dealers, White Supremacists - I believe our corrupt government and ‘public servants’ hire these people. This is the kind of people the DNC would use to ‘eliminate’ whistle blower Seth Rich.

[ransomnote]

Agreed. I forgot the FBI/CIA in my prior post - I said ANtifa/BLM/Street gangs etc. were in the hire of the DNC and Brandon regime (oh and Hillary). They never know who’s at the top, actually ordering mayhem or assassinations.

But you are correct - I think the FBI/CIA and others agencies are the main buyers of these ‘services’.

One dude and his skinny girlfriend. What a farce. Meanwhile there have been nearly 100 attacks on food processing facilities in the past 2 years, with ZERO arrests.

[LesbianThespianGymnasticMidget]

Correction... Baby Elephant Walk. The circus music.

We’re seeing some “Wag the Dog” action these last few years.

Don’t you wonder why you don’t see that movie promoted on any streaming platform?

The weird thing is, the US just gave an all expense paid endless vacation in Belize to an al Qaeda terrorist who was part of a plot to bomb Maryland gas stations.

Another FBI sting?

There was a neonazis group of losers who traveled to Baghdad to support Saddam Hussein, too. They exist but hardly in great numbers, and they are usually dumb as a box of rocks.
