Turning to the bigger picture for a moment, it seems completely plausible that this act is designed to tee up other actions, as is their want.
Already it appears that there were diversionary tactics with the Blangiardi look alike to enable the assassin to escape, etc.
However, the key feature here is that Federal law enforcement / investigative assets are uncharacteristically NOT in their hands now, but are going to be turned against them. Perhaps then they are seeking to provoke a broad based knee-jerk violent response from us IN ORDER TO RALLY SUPPORT? - from their cat ladies and such?
Hope so, as we are not herd animals as they are, and that would be a fatal misread on their part.
Maybe it’s the use of the Feds they want - feeds their fake fascist line?
Anyway, it appears all we may have to do in this circumstance is stand strong, keep prepping, and watch larger forces crack them like a nut.
It’s an interesting set up.
More interested in your thoughts than my prattling on this!
