The FBI has decided to lighten the mood with some fun new comedy material (CW: white supremacist tries to blow up power substation, thwarted by other white supremacists)
Skyler Philippi, 24, of Columbia, Tennessee, was arrested by federal agents and charged with attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction and attempting to destroy an energy facility.
This is just a running laugh track of FBI bullshit. They found a Nazi, set him up with literally everything he needed to do a bomb attack from start to finish, then "caught" him the day before the election.
Also, note where our man Merrick says how they found out about this guy - "Confidential Human Sources". Not spooky spyware or anything, dude just told someone who snitched. Nobody talks, everybody walks.
I salute our brave secret police and their ongoing campaign to catch guys they convinced to do terror plots in the first place. At least this time they actually picked a Nazi instead of a socially isolated mentally ill kid or something.
Also very funny that they waited until the weapon was activated, armed, and ready to fly. Like, guys, what was the plan if your patsy did a few modifications while your back was turned and set it up for GPS nav or something? Are you absolutely sure he was using your hopefully fake payload and not some other payload?
"gee, guys, it was really great for you to provide me with all the plans, weapons, training, ideas, and actually writing my manifesto for me, but i don't think this is what I really want".
Then just walking away...
spoiler
Until your buddies jump out of the bushes with cameras and confetti and strobe lights and shit and you turn around and you're like "PRANKED!" hahahaha you're on tiktok bro it was all a prank! and then you high five all the FBI guys hten you and your buddies and the FBI blow up a federal building together.
If you tried to back out at the last minute still knick you for agreeing to the plan at some point. The FBI will arrest people who refused to participate but still glanced at some map.
FBI informants are not federal agents. They're normal citizens getting paid by the feds to gaslight you into doing terrorism. Filming an informant being a cook is meaningless.
