Tacoma-area power substations were vandalized

PUYALLUP — Three Tacoma-area power substations were vandalized early Christmas morning, officials said Sunday, cutting off power to more than 14,000 people in eastern Pierce County.

The Pierce County Sherriff’s [sic] Department is investigating whether the incidents were coordinated and whether they could be connected to a string of recent attacks on power substations around the country by right-wing extremists.

There were some vandalized awhile back, my first thought was eco-terrorists. Folks who lean right love electricity and the fuels that it takes to create it.

Has anyone been apprehended and charged on any of these recent incidents of vandalism across the US?

It might happen sooner sir. We know from congressional whistleblowers that the FBI is under immense pressure to produce actual Domestic Violent Extremists® (DVE). These are, now by speechified expansion of the Nat'l Threat Assessment, defined as white, likely Christian, Supercalifragi-MAGA adherents to a Disgraced Former President™. These all now occupy the same space in a Venn diagram.

The ratio is likely to be 5 persons "previously known to authoriities" mentored by 11 FBI agents. It won't be found out till much later that all of the 4 were on serious regimens of anti-depressants and the other had 2-digit IQ. The string of these things is likely to continue with the TTP provided by the NC State Utility Mandarin who specifically gave out the technique and result in an interview post-Moore County. Gosh, he sounded so smart to those local TV stations.

Or it's just eco-terrorists as cbtengr said. This possibility has legs.
Or it's just a coincidence.

Thank you for confirming my suspicions. So at this pointy they are just 'framing' the subject matter until all the stars align, like J6.

for over forty years - THE LEFT - has had the market corned on eco-terrorism

metal studs in trees have fucked up decent hardworking citizens in the logging industry that are just trying to make a living

ground glass snuck into pet food because hunting dogs were doing what dogs do - catching ducks and pheasants

throwing red paint on people because fur coats are murder

throwing oil on people because fossil fuels are murder

the weather underground - the Unabomber
...all left-wingers that think people are the enemy of the planet

now, I'm supposed to believe that attacks on power stations are all the fault of right-wing extremists?


GET.THE.FUCK.OUT.OF.HERE.WITH.THAT.BULLSHIT


These motherfuckers in government and the pimps and whores from the state-approved media outlets that support our lying corrupt overlords are some shameless cocksuckers to report damn near anything as fact anymore.
...here's how full of shit the news is:

A photo was released 35 hours before Santa hopped in his sleigh to deliver presents...
...the photo was of a spritely Joe Biden standing on an antique step ladder putting up a Christmas tree.


Because EVERYONE puts the tree up the day before Christmas - and everyone puts that mother fucking Christmas tree up - RIGHT IN THE ARCH OF A FUCKING INNER DOORWAY
...but I'm supposed to believe that it isn't a staged photo (not to mention that the image circulating looks like dOkter gEL bUydeN was photoshopped into the foreground)
...or I supposed to believe that right wing extremists vandalized a power station in Tacoma

bullshit - didnt happen

Interesting timeline

Quote:
Days after what officials called a targeted attack on power substations in North Carolina, NewsNation has exclusively obtained a recent federal law enforcement memo that previously warned of similar possible attacks.

The memo reads, in part:

Power companies in Oregon and Washington have reported physical attacks on substations using hand tools, arson, firearms and metal chains possibly in response to an online call for attacks on critical infrastructure. … In recent attacks, criminal actors bypassed security by cutting the fence links, lighting nearby fires, shooting equipment from a distance or throwing objects over the fence and onto equipment.
LINK

So after the Moore County thing it seems that there was already a Federal memo warning about power plant attacks in the Northwest, by resurrecting the summary of the previous attacks in the Northwest, and this is followed by power plant attacks in the Northwest. Whew, those guys are some prescient dudes.

Dam, Badger's killing it. Right on cue last week I heard our Three Star parrot back the DC line of: "We have to remain vigilant in the coming year to defeat our main enemies. They aren't Russia or China, they are racists and extremists in the ranks."

I almost puked. They've been pushing this shit for the last 10 years but can't seem to ever catch one of those wily racists/extremists/POSSLQ/Platypus.

But they are ever vigilant and we must keep spending tax dollars to keep those rascally right-wingers suppressed.

well your tree-star is partially correct; the enemy we need to worry about IS the enemy within
