“‘I want to address the alarming rise in ‘Swatting’ incidents targeting media figures,’ [FBI Director Kash] Patel wrote Friday morning on his social media. ‘The FBI is aware of this dangerous trend, and my team and I are already taking action to investigate and hold those responsible accountable.'” That was from a Fox News report yesterday. Last night, the attacks — which are, to be clear, acts of attempted murder — continued.
Late last night, we were swatted.
Shortly after, we were also delivered pizzas we never ordered.
Not every victim of swatting has the same relationship with law enforcement as our family, nor may they have as excellent police departments. Some aren’t as fortunate, and innocent…

Grage lives in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. Another swatting took place in Asheville, North Carolina
In the interest of transparency, I’ve decided to release video footage of the swatting of my home at 2AM last night.
Please watch and understand how this could have gone horribly wrong if this was you and your home.

The “media figures” who have been targeted in the last few days have all been right of center on the political spectrum. In addition to trying to induce police to kill them by calling in false reports of mass shootings, many have also received pizza deliveries they didn’t order.
Another conservative was swatted.
As I’ve reported, random pizza orders are showing up to their homes. pic.twitter.com/1ytFC2N8YO

From The Hill . . .
Several conservative hosts of shows, including Joe Pagliarulo of the “The Joe Pags Show” and Shawn Farash of “UNGOVERNED” as well as conservative commentator Nick Sortor, said they have been targeted by individuals who put out false alerts that have involved law enforcement’s Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) units.
“They send a tactical team to your house pretending. There’s an emergency because their hope is to either scare you on the low end or have you come out and confront the police officers and get killed, you know death by cop or something else,” Pagliarulo said in a Thursday post on X, condemning the fake calls.
Again, the motivation here isn’t just to intimidate people based on their political views, advocacy and public profiles. It’s also done in the hopes that a cop with an itchy trigger finger will open fire. The oxygen thieves behind the attacks are hoping for bloodshed.
FBI Director Patel is promising consequences.

This isn’t about politics—weaponizing law enforcement…

In the mean time, this is probably good advice . . .
SWATTING: If you’re an independent journalist on X Democrats are likely targeting you. Take a minute to contact your local police AND sherif department and explain that you might be targeted. It could save your life – dispatch will put a note on your address altering everyone of… pic.twitter.com/PccRgUpmAl

It’s never been about love and acceptance. It’s always been about serving power. We noticed that the environmental cult leaders didn’t live like they believed what they preached. Now we see that the followers don’t really believe it either. The only thing they believe in is tribalism. If they truly believed in the the ¡cLiMaTe CrIsIs! then they would never try to destroy the number one EV company in the country. It was never about the environment. It was always about following the cult.
Given the power requirements and environmental impact fr mining the materials involved let alone production the eco protest of anything green energy actually does make sense……. which is exactly why you will only see it when the company involved isn’t in the groupthink (tribalism by another nuance).
They’ve always overlooked those things. Out of sight, out of mind. All that has mattered is worshiping at the alter of EV, solar, and wind turbines. It’s similar to how they love driving the corporations into other countries with little to no environmental regulations, along with slave wages/labor.
Those calls come from somewhere. Even if it’s a burner phone, records of every call can be tracked…
Initially I had typed out a bunch of why this doesn’t help the way you would think but realized I don’t want the dumb ones getting even harder to find. Suffice it to say building skepticism at the local law enforcement level is currently the best strategy.
Terorism. The fascist left’s most common tactic.
Did you think cutting the size of government would be easy?
The empire strikes back. With civilian hit squads. Like they had in the 1980s in central America.
No, and honestly I am absolutely amazed at how well it has gone thus far. Bunch of things I am watching for especially with former FBI staff nearby in Albany area.
