Nassau County police on Thursday have responded to a bomb threat at the home of Judge Arthur Engoron, the judge presiding over former President Donald Trump’s civil fraud case, a source with direct knowledge of the situation told NBC News.
The threat comes hours before closing arguments in the trial are scheduled to begin, with those arguments still expected to proceed.
A bomb squad was called to Engoron’s home and was investigating Thursday morning; it is unclear whether Engoron was home at the time.
Having grown up in a redneck community, I’m quite confident Trump supporters can at least make a functional pipe bomb.
Agreed. My dad was a maga guy and a prepper. He knew the process to make plastic explosives and pipe bombs. He even had experience making functional gun powder that he had stashed away in the basement. The crazies shouldn’t be discounted as harmless
I grew up in a small redneck community. We love blowing shit up. I know guys that couldn’t graduate high school but could make all kinds of homemade explosive stuff. They’d go out in the woods and blow up a tree, an old appliance, a non-functional vehicle, or whatever else they could scrounge up.
I’ll admit it’s fun as hell. It’s probably not terribly safe but out of the hundreds of times I watched or participated in blowing shit up I only saw one guy injured. He’s missing a bunch of fingers now, but last I heard that hadn’t stopped him.
It’s not a question if it’s functional. It’s more if it’d prove itself functional at their garage.
