I wonder if they would have been as cavalier about threats from left on right.

That tends to happen when you defecate on police cars.

It appears they stopped the plot, did they not?

Edit: I'd like to see a more mainstream news report on this. That article pushes a pretty outrageous conspiracy.


“[I]f it is something law enforcement was planning,” Kennedy said, “then nothing would have been done. It might seem hard to believe that a law enforcement agency would do such a thing, but I wouldn’t put it past them.”

The FBI source does not say it was law enforcement planning this. It could be that FBI was watching some other organization that had these plans which is what the FBI is supposed to do.

But for fun let's point out that the Kennedies are connected to "the Irish" and "the Irish" dominate law enforcement.

In the late '90s I was a member of a group that ultimately was involved in the formation of the TEA party, one of many of that sort. We were infiltrated by an FBI undercover, but since we weren't doing anything criminal, nothing ever came of it. The undercover broke off, and disappeared.

The FBI sits on lots of semi credible "threats" and sometimes passes on ones that are real, like the 9/11 attacks.
