They’re desperately trying to separate the pipe bomber from MAGA, Trump, and 1/6. It’s why there’s a 22-day gap in the arrest affidavit. I’ll be covering this on the @meidastouch.com channel tomorrow at noon PT.
Please call the guy the January 6th pipe bomber.
Fox is calling him the "January 5th bomber" because he planted the bombs the night before but really because they don't want to mention 1/6 as a bad day.

41 minutes of watching two shipwrecked men trying to flip a boat and signaling for surrender/help before firing on them again reminds me of the 9.5 minutes Derek Chauvin knelt on George Floyd’s neck, in that it’s an agonizingly long time to be killing helpless people who clearly posed no threat.

I continue to think that Matty coming out against birthright citizenship a few months ago should have been taken as a major warning sign that the group chats have already decided to surrender on this.

He was lying then too, of course--he had no idea who was in the boat. But he's lying more now.
A clip of Hegseth discussing the strike the next day with Fox News resurfaced online Monday night. trib.al/eV3UYul
In the clip, Hegseth said he watched the second strike, to kill survivors from their initial attack, on September 2, "I watched it live. We knew exactly who was in that boat."

If a U.S. official is ordering extrajudicial killings, that’s not “policy” — it’s murder. He belongs in federal court in D.C., charged under 18 USC for abuse of power, civil-rights violations, and unlawful killings. No immunity for crimes.
