then little chance he is MAGA, a patsy more than likely.

The real pipe bomber, MAGA for sure of the craziest stripe.

in terms of a suspect, so a clever person might do so for that reason.

Why does that make the bomber, whomever it is, a centrist?

I'm sure he's going to suddenly develop strong ties to antifa any minute now. Amazing how quickly the case got "solved" once the FBI got a different perspective. Naturally we'll all be quite comfortable trusting everything they tell us henceforth.

I think we should not take it for granted, but if we assume the Bongino/Patel crew of bumbling FBI overseers actually directed a "REAL" reassessment of all that collected data, culminating in a valid arrest, it would be hard not to think it was MAGA, albeit they will claim ANTIFA

They .right have been sitting on the info and uninspired by the lack of transgender connections. But Patel's gotta look like he's doing something these days. He even wore a suit.

If he had any liberal background, or ANY ties to LGBT+, it would have been all over by now.

They scrub all the wingnut killers' social media.

MAGA hate Democrats and """establishment""" Republicans that certified the so-called """stolen""" election in 2020.

Maga became a party on this lie, and Ashli Babbitt got killed because of it. Strange nobody wants to blame Donald for her death
