From FoxNews: Nashville power grid bomb plot suspect unmasked as baby-faced thug: mugshot
Interesting timing on this report... the very day the new administration is announced... the FBI is 'hard' at work... again...
Back on the 12th of August, a young man was apprehended by FBI efforts... the surrounding details are reported herein with the usual list of allegations...
Allegation 1: Plotting to blow up a power station with a homemade bomb-laden drone"
Allegation 2: is an alleged "accelerationist," a "White supremacist" term expressing their desire to hasten the collapse of society
Allegation 3: discussed committing a mass shooting at a YMCA
Allegation 4: derailing a train with anti-Semitic motives.
Allegation 5: claimed past affiliation with White supremacist groups
Allegation 6: blamed the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks on "a Jewish person"
Allegation 7: got into a shootout with a Black man in Lousiville, Kentucky
Allegation 8: researched past attacks on the power grid and concluded that damaging eight or more power stations at once would cripple the country
Allegation 9: allegedly gave his gun to one of the informants, who he thought was going to be a lookout.
Once he was apprehended, they found an armed explosive device in the car he had been in.
Of course, I am critical of the practice of having FBI personnel becoming involved over time with suspects... because there is often an element of "encouragement" there, and often can weaken the case by risking "entrapment" claims.
For example...

Why are UCE-1 and UCE-2 not named within this 'evidence' of criminal plot? They are not evidently sitting there telling the would-be criminal "Hey, you ought to rethink this... this would be a bad thing and people could get hurt." They are obviously not "discouraging" the criminal, and in fact are offering tacit support for a dangerous enterprise.
Could this be another FBI "PR promotional activity?" Listening to the FBI-authored press release you can hear them gushing over their 'stalwart' defense of the law, and people of the country... again. The same FBI that almost gleefully participated in a lawfare against a number of politically-targeted citizens... Is this the FBI leadership "making nice?" They sure pulled out all the stops with the inflammatory verbiage... anti-Semitism, "shootout with a black man," WMD's, White supremist, 'mass shooting.'
But they did allow him to build, and transport what they are calling a WMD.... They knew when he was acquiring the materials, they knew what he intended to do... and they waited... they waited until "showtime." Nes pa?
(The agents do the jobs they are told to do... this is not about the agents...)
