Federal prosecutors say former President Donald Trump posted on his social media platform what he claimed was the home address of former President Barack Obama the same day a man with guns in his van was arrested near the property.
The FBI had been monitoring Taranto’s online activities because of his involvement in the riot, and began searching for him last Wednesday after he asserted on his YouTube livestream that he was in Gaithersburg, Maryland on a “one-way mission” and intended to blow up the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
The NIST? Is this what happens when someone thinks their scale lied to them about their weight?
That’s silly. We can have both. You don’t have to die. People like me will continue to use the one that’s based on concrete historical everyday objects and estimates, that’s more useful in daily life (though here we call that USGS, not imperial), and people like you can use the one that’s focused on round numbers and is best for big math and science calculations and maybe cooking.
NIST put out a report about the World Trade Center, including the steel used in construction and said, yes, slamming a plane into a building will start a fire, and heat from a fire easily weakens structural steel to the point of failure. No melting and no demolitions required.
Popular Mechanics also did a piece on it. So more eyeballs saw the report. Conspiracy nuts didn't like that at all.
Because he has lots of money, and this results in people like him to be treated much differently (i.e. better) by the law than you or me. If this were any of us in this situation, our lives would be upended, our pets shot, and in prison with all our money gone.
Does he really? Or is it all a show of false glitz and glamour to try to impress people who he thinks are also impressed by shiny gold things?

Or is it because he's still a useful idiot helping to enrich the right people. Keeping him out of jail ensures the grift continues, until convenient to throw him in jail. And then they'll be harping that they need to be elected to help free Trump from jail (which they likely won't bother anyway).
This is the outcome of the republican strategy. the liberals are the literal antichrist and will stop at nothing to destroy America and take your kids. Fostering that mind and bombarding them with it everyday makes people do crazy things...
Taranto already faces four misdemeanor counts related to the Capitol assault, when prosecutors say he joined the crush of rioters who broke into the building and made his way to the entrance of the Speaker’s Lobby outside the House chamber.
Since then, prosecutors say, Taranto has been active online, posting a Facebook video of himself in the Capitol that day and endorsing a conspiracy theory that the death of Ashli Babbitt — who was fatally shot by a Capitol Police officer as she began to climb through the broken part of a door leading into the Speaker’s Lobby — was a hoax.
The FBI had been monitoring Taranto’s online activities because of his involvement in the riot, and began searching for him last Wednesday after he asserted on his YouTube livestream that he was in Gaithersburg, Maryland on a “one-way mission” and intended to blow up the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
The following day, he continued his live stream from the Washington neighborhood where Obama lives — an area heavily monitored by the U.S. Secret Service — and said that he was looking for “entrance points” and wanted to get a “good angle on a shot,” according to the Justice Department’s detention memo. Officials said he was spotted by law enforcement a few blocks from the former president’s home and fled, though he was chased by Secret Service officers.
can they get any more fucking stupid, honestly? a literal cult.
