"A New York man is facing federal charges after allegedly building and stashing homemade bombs across Manhattan, including on active subway tracks and residential rooftops."

Have any of you heard what the guy's motive was? It's just a matter of time before the mainstream media tries to pin this on conservatism. So predictable.

Sounds more like an Antifa thing. A step up from mysterious pallets of bricks.

Wuzzie a muzzie?
Inquiring minds want to know.

Is a New York man anything like a Maryland man?

Usually with a metrosexual skinny suit rather than a blue paid sport shirt untucked.

Van Hollen gets turned on and begins to tremble with excitement for either type.

Check the in depth mainstream leftist media. (That’s a joke and a good one.)

CNN said Michael Gann, age 52, arrested June 5th (!).

I feel sorry for the Medical Doctor and the US Marine with the same name today as this guy.

CNN said:

“Prosecutors allege that on May 30, Gann ordered two pounds of potassium perchlorate, a pound of aluminum powder, over 200 cardboard tubes, over 50 feet of fuses, as well as other unspecified items.”

Let’s settle down. Maybe he had a good reason for buying all that stuff. And maybe he’s a deadly terrorist.

Indeed.

So glad they got him. Good police work. 👍🙏

I never fully believe these stories based on the history of the FIB. They have a history of finding people that are a little off and then building them up to get them to do something incredibly stupid. The FIB are always looking for a headline.
