Anoth potental package being investigated, addressed to Kamala Harris.

Arrest was made in Plantation, FL of a male in his 50s with a criminal history and ties to New York, according to CNN.

Fox News reporting additionally that it was a white male. All traces of the phrase "domestic terrorism" are no doubt being scoured from the site.


EDIT: DoJ press conference at 2:30pm EST. Trump set to speak shortly at an event, will address the "bomb stuff" there.


DOUBLE EDIT: This is apparently a picture of a van belonging to the suspect. When you have THAT many stickers in your window, it's kind of a warning sign to others. Gonna be fascinated to see what all dipshittery is on the Meme Wagon.

Multiple outlets identifying the suspect in custody as Cesar Sayoc Jr., age 56. Registered Republican.

Also, better shot of the Mememobile:

Apparently Mr. Sayoc is a Seminole, or at least identifies as a Seminole. But....his LinkedIn page says his grandfather developed a fighting style which was used to fight the Communist Party in the Phillipines.

So....it looks like what we've got here is "nuttier than a fruitcake". But they sure as hell can't claim he's not a MAGAt.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say his spirit animal is a honey badger on meth.

Also, never underestimate the power of cognitive dissonance. Already seeing plenty of MAGAt faithful acting like they're fucking Sherlock Holmes and trying to find flimsy reasons why this is all a false flag, the van was a plant, Sayoc is a Deep State operative (despite numerous pictures of him at Trump rallies and his own Twitter account), etc. etc.

And they say "liberalism is a mental disorder"? Bitch, please.

The main one I see is how the guy apparently put a fake return address on them, and it was to some democrat or other, so obviously it was the democrats trying to fake some bomb threats before elections.

Not really relevant to the discussion, but is it even legal to drive with your windows obscured by such incredible levels of Trump and Pence stickers?

The rear side windows can be whatever you want. Some large vans have actual window blinds in the US. You just have to have the windshield, back windows, and passenger windows clear.

Technically the police can ticket you for an air freshener on your rear-view mirror because that obstructs your windshield.

Cesar Sayoc is being reported to have a criminal history including drug use, theft, and threatening to bomb the electric company.
The number of bombs mailed is now up to 14.

I hope mailing bombs doesn't explode in popularity like school shootings shot up in frequency after the first few very prolific cases.
