The US Justice Department has charged two people with conspiracy to damage energy facilities, alleging that the Maryland-focused plot was driven by ethnically or racially motivated extremist beliefs

Two people charged with conspiracy to damage energy facilities – a neo-Nazi leader and a woman with whom he had a personal relationship – allegedly planned to attack electrical substations encircling Baltimore and “completely destroy” the entire city, according to federal court documents.

Russell, according to the the charging documents, ascribes to having neo-Nazi beliefs and had started his own local National Socialist Group. Before allegedly conspiring to attack the Maryland power grid, authorities say he had plotted with his roommates in Florida to attack energy facilities there. That alleged plot was revealed during an investigation into the 2017 murder of two of Russell’s roommates by another roommate.

He looks so scary

Sounds fake and pathetic.

DOJl has no balls to go after the snake head but going after defenseless foot soldiers since they are not billioners

Nazis gotta Nazi. But I'm sure MAGAts will say they are very fine people.

Please be the voice to Ethiopian Orthodox Church. Government is abusing, killing and harassing innocent believers of the church. Thanks 🙏🏾

Glad the plot was thwarted. But it’s not like neo nazis are the major threat to Baltimore…others are applauded and encouraged…not apprehended.

Yup

Great Job FBI and Homeland Security

Maybe they should be sent to Syria or Ukraine to “enjoy” there beliefs.

If you support Ukraine... you're a Nazi loving bootlicker.

Please voice for Ethiopian Orthodox church amd people please 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Sources say they were registered Democrats, how ironic

That seems counter productive,what's thier reasoning for that?

Stocked up on alcohol and BBQ supplies. Friends coming over to watch al bundy and family. Far more fun than listening to the bungler lie lie lie and spread racial hate. Brandon is a failure and joke.

CNNnewsroom CNNTonight CNN MSNBCDaily WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS?!!

It’s cnn reporting is it possibly even true? Idk 🤷‍♀️ but it certainly spun I got dizzy reading it

Fascists not socialists.

What's wrong with you people. All him hearing is Civil whatever you get dressed up for. I loose cable that is going to be serious consequences!

It's not just neo-nazi groups. There are cells already in the US in every state. Rather than divide we need to unite!

Most normal republican

Assalam Alaikum, I request the IMF to pledge the thief politicians of Pakistan, Maryam Nawaz Shahbaz Sharif, Nawaz Sharif and Asif Ali Zardari Bilawal Bhutto with the Pakistan Army and then give us money. We the people promise you. The money itself

If found guilty with 100% proof take them out and pop em. Make others think twice.

Throw away the key one more gone

Let me guess they have MAGA hats

Words matter GOP.

Watch brandons lips when he speaks at SOTU. This will be ore recorded as he cannot speak freely and will nor be able to keep in sync. Nothing he says will be truthful and it will be full of hate and racial division.

But Aslii Babbitt murderer walks free and was never harged.

RepDonBacon still looking for Antifa? lol in your own house bud. That’s where you’ll find all the terrorists…all of them.

“But He answered and said, It is written, “Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out through the mouth of God.”” (Matthew 4:4) gospel!

Oh, thank you God for seeing to it that those terrorists got into the hands of the police. Thank you, God, for protecting us. In Jesus name, amen 😇🙏

And what about their fellow whites who live in Baltimore proper?

MFers took the CoD DLC skins to heart lol

Human waste. Let’s never hear from these POSs ever again.

Treat them as the terrorists they are.

So goofy

Throw the book at them! Messing with the power grid is mass murder and should be treated as such!

if they were antifa they would be given medals.

Neo-Nazis are Antifa leftists.

Electrocute her

Probably plan after opening their electric bill this month.

Your grandfathers go to WWII to combat that stupid hate and now follow his thoughts...please.

Murica...I guess.

Yea, give up my guns while people like this are out there. Damn you gun activist….

I don't agree with their view. Trump is right about Baltimore being 💩 hole. Let lowlifes feed on each other.

Keep your gas stoves!

There is nothing worth destroying in Baltimore.

I guess all the white people in Baltimore are just collateral damage according to white supremacists.

Our power grids are very vulnerable.

China should be sanctioned by NATO & UN for Breaking international space laws !

Hunter is that you again

Antifa pedos.

Why is this guy on the street? In 2017, Russell faced weapons and explosives charges in Tampa's federal courthouse. Arthurs has been booked on multiple counts of murder.

So this is where they’re all the TDS infected people are hanging out now.

They look like Antifa. Lefty terrorist.

You, the American government, elected by the American people, you are criminals, you have nothing to do with humanity, you are the devil on the ground, Syria is destroyed by the earthquake, and you, by Caesar's law, prevent countries from sending humanitarian aid .

You mean the guy that was convicted of plotting to creating explosive devices similar to the OKC bombing? The one sentenced to 5 years in 2018 but was released in 2021 (under Biden's DOJ)? But we're supposed to believe this isn't a conspiracy with the fbi & DOJCrimDiv

Man these maga nazis really take their larping seriously don't they. Shes scary

You’ll never see elonmusk commenting on a news like this. Never.

Looks more like Antifa.

Treat them for what they are.. terrorists and execute them. … oh wait that’s the new Republican Party… my bad…

Republican terrorists.

What would they have to gain from doing this?

Dammit, mom! Just pay the damn light bill already like a normal person!

Our homeland terrorists are behind this all over the US. They are plotting to shut it all down and install DJT as supreme leader!

Great. Now arrest those behind the food processing plants fires.

In 1990, the Congressional Office of Technology Assessment (OTA) warned of the vulnerability of U.S. electrical transmission systems to sabotage — with potentially enormous economic and societal consequences. Republicans, led by Newt Gingrich, terminated OTA in 1995.

Great, but what about the guy that incited the insurrection?

ከተገንጣዩ ቡድን ጀርባ ያለው ሌላ ሃይል ነው የምንለው በምክንያት ነው።የተዋህዶ ልጆች በምንም ምክንያት በድፍረት ቤተመቅደስ ውስጥ ጫማ ሳያወልቁ እንደማይገቡ እሙን ነው። ለሁሉም ነገር እግዚአብሔር መልስ አለው።ጊዜ ፈራጅ ነው ያልነቃችሁ ንቁ።

I’m waiting for Biden to be charged for destroying our energy independence

Their hide out had no candles did it

Eskom_SA tell them how your energy facilitates gets fucked every day and SAPoliceService can do nothing to stop it. Welcome to South Africa CyrilRamaphosa

I bet they’re Trump Supporters

I’m sure the FBI was involved 🙄

Trump supporters no doubt.

Apparently, Florida is a haven for domestic terrorists.

VoteBluePA Trump’s very fine people…

Did they use a weather balloon?

Yeah, but what about drag queens? LOL

Thankfully people are waking up to how vulnerable our power grid is. We need to secure it.

Good lord this country needs help.

Let me guess.. one or both of them are from Florida.

Show them!
