An anti-ICE violent leftist attacked 26 Federal Plaza earlier this morning, where an immigration court takes place. The attacker carried explosives and was captured on video pouring a flammable liquid in front of the building before setting it ablaze. The suspect was intercepted during the attack and has been detained by police.
The New York City Fire Department reported to WABC that three civilians sustained minor injuries, with two declining medical treatment. The third individual was taken to NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital. FBI Director Kash Patel released a statement on X confirming details about the incident.
“This morning an individual deployed an incendiary device outside of 26 Federal Plaza in New York. The individual is in custody and two minor injuries reported thus far. FBI JTTF is investigating the incident,” Patel wrote on X.
The suspect is a known anti-ICE activist who used a cart to wheel in fireworks, an accelerant in buckets, and what looked like rifles to attack the federal building. Some alarming video below.

I don’t see any FBI in the photo. Kash and the corrupt FBI have become reporters and usurpers. As the known anti-ICE activist was arrested by NYCPD, has he been released yet?
FBI update: “After assembling an investigative task force, the FBI concludes that the attacker carried explosives and was captured on video pouring a flammable liquid in front of the building before setting it ablaze.”
See more play by play as described from Director Kash Patel himself tonight on Fox News!
Released and given a new EBT card for Mayor Mamdummi’s new “Help Yourself Stupidmarket”.
Rather old fashioned terrorist. Now it’s drones and manpads. I’ve been expecting an aerial attack on Trump Tower ever since he came down the golden elevator.
Incendiaries and arson should bring in BATFE as well.
Arrest and deport the POS to El Salvador, let Bukele deal with him, looks like he’s Latino anyway
It’s time for the the implementation of the Insurrection Act. Declare Marshal Law in the blue cities/ sanctuary cities and get this party started. Enough is enough!!
My perspective is, that if these leftist idiots want to be martyrs for the cause on their last day, let them. Hopefully ICE keeps opening up on them
The useful idiots are practically unlimited., and this perp is almost certainly a member of Antifa, a designated terrorist group. Btw, with reference to the ‘perspective’ post here by SD, why has Kash’s FBI not worked up the food chain and busted any of the brains & financiers of the aforementioned? A small town sheriff could have gutted this outfit by now, but the gaslighting FBLie is sandbagging us still.
Declare Marshal Law in the blue cities/ sanctuary cities
That’d be Martial Law, hombre
Marshall Law is the guy with a six-gun on his hip comin’ into town to restore order
Marshall Dillon thanks you.
Or shotgun
lol. I had a rough morning. But appreciate the correction.
Clearly a terroristic act of arson worthy of severe punishment.
Now the Left is Judge shopping to free him!
Yeah since it’s on a federal building, he is really screwed depending on the judge wild card I suppose. Arson on federal property I think is a much different charge, isn’t that what they got the Bundy’s with?
Sounds like the Summer of Love is upon us….once again.
This one is going to be real bad.
More aptly,The Summer of Hate is upon us!
the Demoncrats summer of love is starting…………
America needs to open mental institutions again.
He looked Norwegian.
A darkly suntanned Norwegian.
This behavior ties in so well with the Cuba-Report that the State Department put out today. It ties in with Cuban Communism and their attempts to overthrow the USA with violence. The mayor of LA, Karen Basura, has ties to Cuba. Communists destroy everything. Karen Bass Basura is destroying LA.
That report is very interesting to read especially about the terroristic violence that their followers are taught.

What do the temporary barricades on the sidewalk do?
Or, are those bike racks?
It’s outside an ICE building so I think it’s to keep the usual leftists in certain areas if the security deems it necessary
So another sacrifice for optics which, in NY, will go to court before a leftist judge, walk the street within hours after a quick hand nip. Looks antifa made to me.
Nah he’ll get federal charges on this, and arson on a federal property is automatic terrorism charges. I think this is what they harassed the Bundys (or perhaps I have the wrong victims mixed up) with for so long, they set a fire to clear brush and it moved over into a park, and they charged them with terrorism over it.
God bless our first responders!!
The violent extremists attacking ICE are ‘Rent a Mob’ & Antifa.
‘Rent a Mob’ & Antifa is organized Domestic Terrorism.
Follow the money.
What stands out to me is that this varmint was pulling a cart filled with incendiaries and weapons but was not stopped. I would think some law enforcement patrolling the sidewalks and streets might be prudent.

They let them carry machetes, knives and set people on fire who are on the bus.
Gas can, bombs…that’s NYC.
Yet want to get rid of law enforcement.
Well I have to compliment the police, they had the guy on his nose in less than 60 seconds.
It appears the officer had grey hair so possibly older, and took the guy down to the ground by sheer strength from his arm. Just slowly out manhandled him straight on his nose. What a beautiful thing to watch.
scumbag coward thugs,i hope that he get’s heavy penalty,
I have a sneaking hunch that this guy is part of Extinction Rebellion. If you are not familiar with the group check out their website.
If that guy is part of some sort of criminal organization the last thing anyone here needs to do is visit their website.
Why don’t you give us a synopsis on their mission statement and activities instead of suggesting people do something that would invite negative attention to themselves?
0.o
Or, you could just look it up.

Torching an outdoor cement walkway? What is that suppose to do? Leave burn marks. What’s this asshole’s point?
Publicity?
A 60 IQ is pretty standard in New York City. Today a report was issued that 900,000 New York City residents are on welfare out of an 8 million population.
In New York City welfare is a career choice.
No “ordinary” person could get close enough to do this. Track what happens to him. Most likely he will be released eventually with no prosecution and will just disappear. Wonder why.
fbi investigating. This will be investigated, Kashyap. One short tubby lunatic awaiting deportation through gas on steps and lit fireworks, but was taken down by 20 individuals with guns, he was dragged off in handcuffs.
Go ahead Kashyap investigate. You might find his section 8 food stamps and medical was cutoff because he is here ILLEGALLY.
