How many progressives will stand up and condemn this planned attack? These were all Bernie bros trying to eliminate the rich, based on Bernie and AOC’s spin and oligarchy tour. Will they speak up? Who knows, but I suspect not. You can add the new far-left Ro Khanna to this group of socialists, as he has recently gone way left.
When will progressives stand up against violence? Only if it comes from the right, but not for the progressives attacking ICE for doing its job or any other protests for the cause. Violence and fear are part of the progressive ideology to get and maintain power. Almost sounds like Iran, anything to maintain power. Silence by Democrats is acceptance of the violence. All IMO.
“A plot to unleash explosive drones and sniper fire at the UFC Freedom 250 event at the White House was meant to “jump-start” a revolution by killing President Trump and other top political figures, federal prosecutors said Tuesday.
U.S. authorities said the plotters also meant to kill Vice President J.D. Vance, technology magnate Elon Musk, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Republican lawmakers who support Israel.
Court documents charged five people in the foiled attack: Abraham Hermosillo Alvarez of Nebraska, Daniel Eskridge of Missouri, Tycen Proper of Ohio, and Bryan Omar Roa and Michael Alan Thomas of California.
Each of the five is accused of conspiracy to commit murder. Mr. Alvarez and Mr. Proper face additional charges of conspiracy to commit an offense against the United States, and Mr. Proper has been charged with weapons violations.
It was not clear how close the plot came to being carried out. The motivations cited in court documents include anger over the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein files, fury about the U.S. alliance with Israel and resentment about the influence of wealthy elites, some of whom attended the White House event.
Mr. Vance said Tuesday that there was “more violent rhetoric coming from the left than the right these days.”
