Attorney General Pam Bondi has said the Department of Justice will seek a 20-year prison sentence for a man accused of throwing a firebomb at a Tesla dealership.
Bondi said Monday that Cooper Jo Frederick, who is accused of attacking a Tesla dealership in Loveland, Colorado, on March 7, would face federal charges.
It’s weird how upset the hard right gets over property damage. They got very upset over their made-up “fact” that “whole cities were burnt to the ground” by BLM/antifa.
But it’s okay to plan and scheme for, then carry out, a terrorist event at the Capitol to overturn a free and fair election, and possibly lynch the VP and any other politicians that they didn’t like and could get their grubby little hands on. I do notice that property damage that is part of the government seems to get an exception, too.
This the stupidest step they could take. Seriously if you’re going to get 20 years for throwing a firebomb. Well, in for a penny - in for a pound, you might as well … I can’t make any suggestions after all, but let your mind wander and I’m sure you can think of something a lot worse that’s still only going to get you 20 years.
While I agree that arson is wrong and should be illegal, it wasn’t a federal crime last time I checked. This should be handled by the state attorney general in the state where it happened.
Arson is prosecuted by the state unless it was carried out on federal property… They really don’t try to hide it anymore do they?
Thanks to the patriot act, anything can be terrorism now
Does anyone at DOJ not call her Blondi as she walks away?
How many bottle blonds does this administration have. The bleach is seeping into their cerebral spinal fluid.

I keep reading her name as Pam Blondi
This is the first I’m hearing that it’s not Pam Blondi
Didn’t her party release 1500 terrorists back into our society?
Yes. But right wing terrorism does not count as terrorism in their book.
Attempt to overthrow the government, however…
Shocking, the only form of protest they seem to notice is when it’s against property.
3 months, pardoned
Cause damage to a building requiring a couple coats of paint: 20 years in prison.
Use an app to share classified information and share it with the media putting troops lives in danger: nothing to see here. No need for investigation.
America is owned by Elon Musk.
But hey, at least the orange muppet in charge released the insurrection prisoners and is going to reward them with your tax dollars in payouts.
Way to fucking go America. If only the rest of the world could be like you. 🤮
So now they care about people infiltrating and destroying buildings?
They never did and still don’t.
They care about imprisoning or murdering those who don’t share their ideology.
This is the dual state. One legal system for everyone, except when the fascists are involved. Then there are an entirely different set of laws
It’s the “conservatism has one rule: there must be in-groups for the law to protect but not bind, and outgroups for the law to bind but not protect” thing.
Almost as if conservatism and fascism go hand-in-hand.
And unequal justice is not justice at all
But if you attack the Capitol, you get released out of jail. What a joke

If it was a Ford dealership, can’t think of an immediate reason to firebomb it. This is a political act and its getting a political response. Anarchism springing up in the wake of a fascist seizure of power is just normal cause and effect.
I mean, Henry Ford was also a Nazi. But he’s also been dead for some time now, and the current leadership at Ford isn’t actively engaged in a violent overthrow of the government.
I mean, Henry Ford was also a Nazi.
Sure. But as far as I can tell, Jim Farley is your standard issue empty suit (and… TIL, cousin to Chris Farley, RIP). If there’s a reason to get mad at the modern Ford Exec Team - beyond the boilerplate corporate waste, fraud, corruption, and abuse common to American big business - I’m not aware of it.
Certainly, Farley isn’t leading a crusade to tear down the fucking Library of Congress out of pure egotism and spite.
Someone will have to test this hypothesis.
Attacking Congress and policemen… Just innocent tourists falsely accused…
What a joke America has become
I can’t wait for AG Pam Bondi to start going after and arresting all the thousands of 200 year old people collecting social security.
That’s a /s right?
