FBI bulletin warns of 'dirty bomb' threat and increasing calls for 'civil war' in wake of Mar-a-Lago raid - while former agent and GOP Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick says agency warned him that his 'life was in danger' due to threats from Trump supporters
2022-08-15
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Why would people bother to threaten the honourable congressman from Bucks County, PA?
  • GOP Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick urged lawmakers on both sides of the aisle not to jump to conclusions on the FBI's unannounced search of Mar-a-Lago

  • He said he checked in with several former FBI colleagues to see if 'they were okay' amid Republicans' verbal attacks on federal law enforcement

  • Fitzpatrick suggested the new DHS and FBI bulletin was a top concern

  • It highlights an increase in targeted, violent threats against officials including the federal judge who signed off on the Mar-a-Lago warrant

#30  TW,
Please forgive my ignorance.
By your own numbers, views, this site is pretty small.
Why would you urge caution?
This topic, article, has had 358 views. Probably a quarter of them are mine.
Should we not speak freely here?
Not sarcasm, just don't get it.

#29  Sloluse Slutle9788, please consider the possibility that, unless you know all the others in the discussion personally — that is to say off the internet, at least one of them is either a paid agitator from the FBI or similar trying to get people to say the kind of thing they can be arrested for, or a Russian/Chinese/Romanian boiler room troll trying to demoralize people.

Think Ray Epps on January 6th or the FBI informants who pushed the plan to kidnap Michigan Governor Whitmer, or whatever her name is.

I am absolutely not arguing that you and they ought not be angry. I’m just asking you please, please be very careful what you say, where, and to whom. Now is not the time to indulge in anger, no matter how justified, but to very coldly calculate what best to do, and how, and when.

#28  SH,
It is certainly your right to think and speak as you do. However, I urge you to consider legal, peaceful action. People must take notable action.
Waiting is the wrong answer.

So much shit has happened just in the last few months alone. Read the constitution people. WE are what's best for this country. Not politicians trying to make their millions. WE are the ones who pay their paychecks and it's time WE did something about it AND TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK!

RA!DING HOMES OF POLITICAL APPONENTS THAT THESE VETS VOTED FOR!
YOUNG VETS TRY!NG FEED THEIR KIDS WITH FOOD PRICES TRIPPLED.
GAS PRICES FOR THEIR COMMUTES DOUBLED!
USED CAR PRICES NOW THROUGH THE ROOF!

AND THESE FAMILIES CAN‘T GET THE OLDER GENERATION TO HELP ADDRESS THIS CRISIS BECAUSE YOU ARE TOO BUSY SITTING ON YOUR ELDERLY DEADBEAT FAT AZZES CALLING OUR YOUNGER STRUGGLING VETS “dirtbags“!

F-YOU BITCH!

#26  My military service did not involve a keyboard.

The FBI has taken a desperate action to recover something from Trump that they think is dangerous to themselves.

I don't think they got what they are looking for as they seized a bunch of cell phones afterward. They are now within 90 days of the election and can take no further action. They have subpoenaed Trump's video to prevent him from releasing the evidence of them being stupid.

My military thinking tells me to maintain discipline and allow the enemy to destroy themselves. Trump is up 10 points, and the next inning is likely to involve Jim Jordan leading an investigation.

What will it take for you to actually stand and do something? Activism and legal protest? Or hide behind your PC keyboard?

#24  I think most veterans would agree that this is not the Republic that we joined up to serve. It is the Republic we have. We aim to change it with our votes and activism. No veterans that I know of are planning violence. Ahsley Babbitt was a veteran and an activist. She was also unarmed and assaulted no one. There may be veteran violence, but it will be by dirtbags who should have never served.

#22  Are these the same go-to guys in the Washington FBI office, the ones involved in the Whitmer kidnapping set-up or whatever you call it?

#21  honestly, given how every incident winds up being done by people known to the FBI, can we say they really aren't involved?
Posted by: Silentbrick   2022-08-15 15:38  

#20  The question you have to ask is: Would you put it past them? The obvious answer is: No, based on past experience, absolutely not.
Posted by: Abu Uluque   2022-08-15 12:12  

#19  On line threats and calls for civil war are probably generated from a back room in the J. Edgar Hoover Building.

An educated guess based on past experience. Probably not far off the mark.

#6  FBi Director Wray's number 3 man, Brian C. Turner does not come from law enforcement background before joining the FBI but can't mes from a Military background as a West Point graduate and 10 years old in the military.

He would be the liaison between the FBI and General Mark A. Milley domestically as an alliance against any domestic threat Joe Biden's illegitimate Presidency and political opponents.

#5  Wray is the Director of the FBI.

The Deputy Director is Paul Abbate who's career was mostly spent in the Counterterrorism Division.

In 2012 Mr. Abbate was the FBI on-scene commander in Libya when the American Embassy in Benghazi, Lybia was attacked and over run resulting in the deaths of Deaths US Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and USFS officer Sean Smith. An attack FBI Deputy Director Abbate failed to anticipate.

#3  I have heard *chatter" from veterans of Afghanistan and Iraq, chatter that started when Trump's home was raided by the FBI. They are saying this is not the America they fought to protect.

#2  Baiting
The FBI and Pelosi's Antifa were minglingmingling with the Jan 6 crowd to orchestrate chaos. People are in prison now who attended the Trump rally.
The FBI raided Trump's home like thieves in the night to motivate MAGA political violence.
Peter Paul Strzok II, a former FBI agent worked out to blame Russian interference in the the 2016 Presidential election resulting in the impeachment of Trump by Pelosi's House of Representatives.
There has to be a concerted, effective effort on the right to deal with this left wing Stasi and their tactics in order to eliminate this attempt at establishing tyranny.

#1  This is the Swamp. Compromised government agencies continuing to create false flags to justify their coming disruption of the elections to prevent the election of a Republican Majority in congress from investigating and shutting the scam down.
