CALLED IT

This happened today:
A suspect who claimed to have an explosive device in a truck near the US Capitol has surrendered to authorities and is in custody, US Capitol Police said Thursday.

Police have identified the suspect as 49-year-old Floyd Ray Roseberry. The incident prompted multiple buildings in the area to be evacuated Thursday as authorities responded to an "active bomb threat investigation," the US Capitol Police wrote on Twitter.

Roseberry drove a black pickup truck onto the sidewalk in front of the Library of Congress at 9:15 a.m. ET, claiming he had a bomb and displayed what looked like a detonator to the officer on the scene, according to US Capitol Police Chief Tom Manger.
Even before the suspect was apprehended, it was easy for me to guess the response in Republican America:



And there you go:



(Catturd is a Tweeter who was retweeted several times by then-president Trump.)

There was a scare in Times Square today, too, but it was nothing:
The outdoor seating area behind the TKTS booth at Father Duffy Square in Times Square was evacuated due to a suspicious package.

The NYPD moved people from that area before discovering that the threat was unfounded....

A man on a bicycle dropped a metal container with crackers inside near the outdoor seating area.

The container was recovered and is not considered a threat.
The true patriots at Gateway Pundit are doubly suspicious:


In one of the now-deleted videos he posted on Facebook, Roseberry claimed the ability to blow up multiple blocks of D.C.
“People think it’s a joke but they cleared the block,” Roseberry said in one of the live videos. “They need to get Joe Biden down here. I’m not hurting nobody Joe. I’m not pulling the trigger on this thing. I can’t – there’s no way for me to blow this up. Only you can by shooting a bullet through my window. You don’t want to do it Joe. I love this land. We got a few options here Joe. You shoot me, this two and a half blocks is going with it. You’re talking about a revolution? The revolution is on. It’s here. It’s today.”
It won't matter if the next would-be revolutionary actually destroys multiple city blocks or kills dozens of people -- the right will still say it's a Biden/Deep State/(Soros?)/(Bill Gates?) false flag. They'll insist to the end that 100% of the evil in the world is on our side.
