The FBI arrested a Virginia man it says had the largest stockpile of explosives recovered in the agency’s history.
Brad Spafford was arrested earlier this month at his farm outside Norfolk on charges related to failing to register a short barrel rifle, but court documents posted Monday seeking to prevent his release outline broader concerns, including that he had more than 150 explosive devices stored at his home.
Spafford first came to the attention of authorities through a neighbor who reported the defendant was using a photo of President Biden for target practice, expressed approval for political violence and shared a conspiracy theory that missing children were taken by the federal government to be trained as school shooters.

I am very surprised the FBI would go after this guy. He seems like one of their fellow RWNJs. There is so much resistance within the FBI to investigation or arrest people like this. Bet he will be out in a few days with an apology from Garland.
Probably only investigated because of using Biden’s image as target practice. It may be deemed a threat on the president. Just guessing

“During the Monday hearing, a federal judge denied the government’s motion for detention. The judge ordered Spafford released with restrictions such as electronic monitoring and a requirement that Spafford stay with his mother.”

I guess race matters.
