A California man was arrested near the Democratic National Committee (DNC) headquarters early Monday morning after Capitol Police found a bayonet and machete in his car.

Donald Craighead, 44, was arrested for possession of prohibited weapons after a Capitol Police officer pulled him over and found the weapons in his truck, which are illegal in Washington, D.C., authorities noted.

At around midnight on Monday, Capitol Police said a Special Operation Division officer who was on patrol pulled over a Dodge Dakota pickup truck outside DNC headquarters that had a swastika and other white supremacists symbols painted on it.

This sounds like another Smollett hoax trying to gin up trouble. White supremacy and all that crap.

Deep State has to do something to earn those salaries and benefits...they hadn’t met their agent provocateur quota for the month...

"...a Dodge Dakota pickup truck outside DNC headquarters that had a swastika and other white supremacists symbols painted on it."

Was he also wearing a Klan hood and hollering "this is maga country"???

If he’s not a plant, he probably had a toothpick and some nail clippers.

The few real Nazi racists seem to have a lot of mental problems so it probably wouldn’t be hard for the FBI to trick one into showing up “near the DNC HQ” to be arrested.

Bayonet and machete? Doesn't sound like white supremacist armament.

Anyway, I'll bet dollars to donuts the FBI or their informants have been in touch with this guy.

I would bet that the FBI is involved. I think I saw that they are putting the fences and razor wire back up in DC, and they likely need a few “incidents” to justify bringing the NG back in by the thousands.

Because, you know, “insurrection”.....

Heck yeah.

Paint swastikas and white supremacy symbols on your car and drive it in 90% black Washington, DC. Ignore the swat teams stationed on the roofs of the Federal buildings for such an occurrence.

Seems like a viable plan.

I sure believe it.

Just as fishy as the white guy in a black pickup or SUV with bombs.

Note to self, always check the taillights and license tags before doing something stupid.

Remember the guy they caught recently in a pickup who was going to bomb something?

Swept under the rug because it was a fake setup like this and the FBI kidnapping plot in Michigan.

People are catching on to their tricks.

He was driving his wife's car. It had one of these stickers on the bumper.

I see no bayonet or machete in those pictures. How convenient he has a swastika drawn on his driver’s side mirror too.
