Federal law enforcement officials said Thursday that they stopped a Texas man from carrying out a possible terrorist attack in Houston. "Any day we can publicly say that is a good day," the FBI's Houston field office said on social media.

Anas Said, 28, was charged last month with attempting to provide material support to the terrorist group ISIS, according to an indictment filed in U.S. District Court in Texas.

Said was arrested last week at the Houston apartment complex where he is alleged to have planned the attack, said the FBI, which accused him of bragging that he would commit "a 9/11-style" attack if he had the resources.

Said is alleged to have told federal agents that he created propaganda for the terrorist group, considered attacking members of the U.S. military and discussed researching the locations and physical layouts of synagogues and the Israeli Consulate in Houston, federal court documents show.

1. Matt Gaetz is on record stating he wants to eliminate the FBI.

And the crowd cheered when he said it.

Can anyone imagine what would happen if the FBI suddenly did not exist?

2. Big govt you know

All that is needed is Elon Musk’s private security. That way the only important person in America-the high status male who should be the emperor of the universe-will be safe.

11. Not just Matt Gaetz

It's in their 2025 project.

"Project 2025's blueprint envisions dismantling the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI."

Dumpy Trumpy wants to destroy the FBI because someone in that organization at one time told him "NO".

Also he needs a secret police to threaten, beat up and kill his oh so many enemies.

20. Oh god, fuck these fucking morons.

That's their answer to everything - gut, defund, eliminate. They can't deal with having to abide by the rules so they eliminate the people whose job it is to enforce them. Again, fuck these morons. Anything that happens is entirely on them.

22. If they obliterate the FBI

and many other Federal Gov't Agencies there will be a MASSIVE increase in not only FOREIGN terrorism,

but DOMESTIC terrorism, that the RepubliCONS refuse to acknowledge exists.......

3. Gaetz can make a comment like that,

but let some activist suggest that we should get rid of cops and all hell breaks loose. Not that I want to eliminate cops or FBI, but the double standard is nauseating. It's more than ridiculous that a piece of shit like Gaetz can be a U.S. Congressman, much less an Attorney General.
