Nach Donald #Trumps Niederlage – Rechtsextreme planten offenbar #Anschlag auf Demokraten-#Parteizentrale in #Kalifornien – #CapitolRiot #Terror

Die Wahlniederlage Donald Trumps wollten zwei Rechtsextreme in Kalifornien anscheinend nicht hinnehmen. Sie horteten massenhaft Munition – und planten wohl eine Attacke. Jetzt sind sie angeklagt worden. Zwei Männer mit Verbindungen zu einer rechtsextremen Miliz sollen einen Anschlag auf die Parteizentrale der US-Demokraten im Bundesstaat Kalifornien geplant haben. Bei einem der Männer seien bei einer Durchsuchung bis zu 50 Schusswaffen, Tausende Schuss Munition und fünf Rohrbomben gefunden worden. Das teilte das US-Justizministerium mit. Demnach begannen die 45 und 37 Jahre alten Männer nach der Niederlage von Amtsinhaber Donald Trump bei der Präsidentschaftswahl vom 3. November mit den Planungen für einen Angriff. Die Pläne seien dann nach der Kapitol-Erstürmung vom 6. Januar nochmals vorangetrieben worden. In einer Botschaft schrieb einer der Männer dem anderen: »Ich will wirklich ein Gebäude der Demokraten in die Luft sprengen.« (…) Die Männer sind dem Justizministerium zufolge Anhänger der extremistischen Bewegung Three Percenters, bei der Trump große Sympathien genießt. Einer der Angeklagten soll laut der Nachrichtenagentur Reuters auch Kontakt zur Miliz »Proud Boys« gehabt haben.

Two men with extremist militia links have been charged with amassing an arsenal of guns and pipe bombs to attack the California headquarters of the Democratic Party, the US Justice Department said Friday. Ian Benjamin Rogers, 45, and Jarrod Copeland, 37, began planning the attack on the Sacramento headquarters shortly after Republican president Donald Trump’s loss to Joe Biden in the November 3 election last year, according to the indictment unsealed in San Francisco federal court. Their plan gained pace after the January 6 Trump-inspired insurrection at the US Capitol in Washington, which temporarily halted the certification of Biden’s election victory. “I want to blow up a Democrat building bad,” Rogers told Copeland in a message. In their messages Rogers and Copeland expressed hopes of igniting a “revolution” with their attack. (…) At the time law enforcement discovered Rogers had nearly 50 firearms, including illegal fully automatic weapons or machine guns, thousands of rounds of ammunition and five functional pipe bombs in his home and business. Both Rogers and Copeland were followers of the violent, extreme-right Three Percenters movement, whose members allegedly took a leading role in the storming of the Capitol on January 6. In messages the two also discussed attacking Twitter after it banned Trump for posting inflammatory statements, along with billionaire Democrat supporter George Soros and the mansion of Democratic California governor Gavin Newsom; Napa Man With ‘White Privilege Card’ and Accomplice Charged With Plotting to Blow Up Democratic Headquarters. Remember that guy up in Napa who was basically a character out of a Coen Brothers movie who was arrested in January just before Inauguration Day with a “White Privilege Card” and texts on his phone talking about wanting to blow up Twitter and “a democrat building” with pipe bombs? Well he and his accomplice/buddy have now been charged in federal court. 45-year-old Ian Benjamin Rogers of Napa and 37-year-old Jarrod Copeland of Vallejo are in some hot water over their Trump-fueled rage following the 2020 election. Both now face charges of conspiracy to destroy by fire or explosive a building used in interstate commerce, and the feds have evidence suggesting a plot to blow up the John L. Burton Democratic Headquarters in Sacramento. Rogers also faces additional weapons violations, including one count of possession of unregistered destructive devices and three counts of possession of machine guns. According to a now unsealed indictment, per Bay Area News Group, the election of Joe Biden spurred Rogers and Copeland to begin planning attacks on Democrat Party and social media targets, with the Burton building chosen as their first target. They “believed that the attacks would start what they called a ‘movement,’” the indictment says; Napa Man Arrested For Explosives Had ‘White Privilege Card’, Allegedly Planned to Blow Up Twitter and Gavin Newsom. A Napa businessman whose January 15 arrest we learned of last week, turns out to have been allegedly plotting to attack the state Capitol, as well as Twitter and Facebook, all in the name of Donald Trump. Much like this unhinged idiot in the East Bay who was arrested by the feds this week, Napa resident Ian Benjamin Rogers, 44, was taken into custody by federal agents earlier this month following a tip that he was in possession of several illegal weapons. As KTVU reported, Napa County sheriff’s deputies served a warrant at Rogers’s business, British Auto Repair of Napa, on January 15, and found a cache of over 50 firearms, including illegal assault rifles and automatic weapons, as well as five homemade pipe bombs, 15,000 rounds of ammunition, and several pounds of gun powder. A federal bomb squad went about detonating the five devices outside the business, using a makeshift bunker made out of rubber tires. The Napa Valley Register, whose offices are very close to British Auto Repair, reports that employees were instructed to stay on the newspaper’s property while the bomb squad and its robot were at work. Now we learn via an affidavit in support of a federal criminal complaint that Rogers was allegedly among the American “patriots” who spent the early part of the new year fomenting rage and insurrection over Biden’s pending inauguration. And text messages that he allegedly sent, according to federal agents, contained phrases like, “We can attack Twitter or the democrats you pick… I think we can attack either easily,” and “I want to blow up a democrat building bad,” and “I hope 45 goes to war if he doesn’t I will.”
