I would like for FOX news to run This story over and over just like they would do it if this person would Be an illegal alien...

Let's continue to ignore military racism though

Ohhh. He just a coast guard officer and no longer a WHITE NATIONALIST HUH... YUP CNN BEEN ON A FOX LIKE PROPAGANDA ROLL THE LAST 10 DAYS

It amazes me why someone who was caught a hit list is being charged with these. Why not charge him with something stiffer, to serve as a deterrent to others. This is a serious matter because if he carried out that crime u won’t be saying all this. Get sense!!!!

SO he will not be considered as a terrorist. Or that is only reserved for Muslims

If you're a real American, you have a leftist hit list. It's not a list for murder, but a list of those needing cleansed from Congress. The US doesn't need these infanticide lobbying, antiAmerican, antiConstitutional socialists making decisions for the nation.

That’s quite an Arsenal to amass, thank goodness you got to him in time!

Old news 🤦🏾‍♂️🧟‍♂️🤣🤣🤣

One more jab. How could a woman allow this mutated fetus get this old?

Nice collection but not a stockpile

Stock piling weapons my Ass , Gun collectors have ten times as many guns , they are not stock piling weapons .

Violence of citizens in America is easy to change to homicide. Citizens have right to the possibility of murder.

Funny how these things always happen the same day a big news story revealing more about the evil left breaks. Every. Single. Time. Like they plan them in advance ...

Like omg!!! The justice system seems to work exactly as intended. Burn the asshole and let’s move on

Allegedly... Allegedly...

Why is this story receiving so little attention? This man had the ability & intent to kill dozens of members of our govt. If he had been black, a Muslim, or undocumented, people would be going chanting 'build the wall', & 'ban them all'. But he's a white American so, no biggee?

And Trump people got him before he did any damage . Which we could say the same about ...OBAMA

A officer leader of men I don't want to see the men he leads

What? Why didn't DOJ charge him domestic terrorism?

I must have missed the president’s tweet on this!?!? Because you know he would give equal time to all NationalEmergency s!

America and it’s obsession with guns 😏

Thank partisan politics, he was upset with liberal ideas. If he was anti-MAGA he may never have been charged.

Among lawyers served buisnesses of future POTUS45 Mr cohen was lawest & cheapest fixer. CohenHearing revealed- he knew it- taped clients to advance, also played with medalions & banks to suck $. Happened wanted more than abilities in performance & customer honest service

Oh my gah, this just happened 5 minutes ago?

How long before we find out how fake this news is? Can never be sure what's true on CNN.

Stockpiled? That looks like a majority of Texan's Gun safes.

Obviously never maintain a *physical* list--that's like Vigilante 101

Didn't an MSM pundit suggest that Trump was disappointed at his apprehension, and that it's questionable as to whether Trump might have been happy if it were successful, when pressed by another commentator who said - it that's where we are?! What network was that?! anyone know?

It's not like we are all

I'm sure he'll run in 2020 and win.
