Summary

An anti-Trump conservative summit in Washington, DC, was evacuated Sunday due to a “credible bomb threat” allegedly sent by an account claiming to represent Enrique Tarrio, former Proud Boys leader.

The threat, which named several high-profile attendees, remains unverified by police. Tarrio, who was arrested over the weekend, denied involvement and threatened legal action.

The event, an alternative to CPAC, featured prominent anti-Trump conservatives and ex-law enforcement officers who had clashed with Tarrio earlier.

DC tensions were heightened amid the CPAC gathering and related protests.

      I had meant to include my source: https://tripwire.dhs.gov/reports/298701

      It doesn’t look like it specifies exactly where these bombings were, however it does break it out by state and under the Recoveries section it lists the various ‘target types’ for devices that were recovered (the majority being residential - though this includes more than just criminal bombing).

        So yeah it’s not a very complete document.

        Terrorists don’t announce a bomb. They don’t threaten. Threats are made by maga pussies who wanna feel big.
