Charged with “attempted arson”? What about attempted murder, terrorist acts, hate crimes, etc.?

It did not ignite, but an FBI agent said in an affidavit that blood stains on the canister matched Rathbun’s DNA.

Did he catch Florida Man while on spring break?

After he’s reelected Trump will have to pardon this guy. If Stephen Miller whispers the suggestion in his ear while being the last person of the day to talk to Trump it’s a done deal.

If they do know why are they not protesting in front of the White House and chanting,“Jews will not replace us”?
