🚨 The Trump DOJ has now moved to dismiss the seditious conspiracy case against Oath Keepers founder Elmer Stewart Rhodes III and several other Oath Keepers who participated in the January 6th insurrection — with prejudice — meaning the charges cannot be brought again.

The two men who attacked a San Diego mosque on Monday left a document showing they were steeped in racist, white supremacist ideologies, including accelerationism and the "Great Replacement" conspiracy theory. LATEST: usatoday.com/story/news/nat…

It's hilarious to watch Trump's DOJ stumble over itself to claim something isn't rightwing extremism. The San Diego killers cited neo-Nazi books, worshipped neo-Nazi leaders, ripped off a neo-Nazi documentary about "White Terror." But it's just "nihilism"? cbsnews.com/news/san-diego…

Earlier this year, @writerbarton & I wrote the story of a horrific death in an Alabama jail & a sheriff who was hanging on to power despite nearly half of his staff being charged. usatoday.com/story/news/nat… That sheriff just lost his bid for reelection: usatoday.com/story/news/inv…


The word "hero" gets thrown around a lot. But it's clear the attack on the San Diego Islamic Center yesterday could have been SO much worse. 140 children were feet away from the attackers. Security guard Amin Abdullah engaged these cowards in a gunfight, and they ran away.

NEW: A 19-year-old Middle Tennessee man has been sentenced to two years in federal prison for threatening to shoot up a Nashville mosque in late 2024. (Link below.)

NBC News: Investigators are trying to authenticate a 75 page document possibly left behind by the suspects involved in yesterday’s shooting at a mosque in San Diego. If true, the documents are hateful, anti-Islamic, anti-Semitic, and espouse the views of accelerationists.
