So they've arrested a suspect in the "Let's mail a pipe bomb to someone Trump hates" movement. It turns out to be a guy who's a long-time registered Republican whose van is covered with pro-Trump stickers and signs. I haven't looked at any right-wing sites since I read this news but I'll bet there are already some insisting — with of course not a sliver of evidence — that this guy is a secret Democratic operative who was set up to appear to be a Trump supporter doing this. In the world today, anything that happens that you don't like is a False Flag and/or Fake News.
But you know what I think? I think we oughta all heed the cautionary words of Matt Taibbi who reminded us a day or so ago that acts of terrorism are often misreported at first. There's a history of the wrong person being accused and the facts later telling a somewhat different story. Cable news needs immediate tune-ins so they can't afford to be prudent and patient about this kind of thing. But we can.
