Georgia Man Pleads Guilty to Attempting to Attack the White House with Explosives
Today Hasher Jallal Taheb, 23, of Cumming, Georgia, has pleaded guilty to a charge of attempting to destroy, by fire or an explosive, a building owned by or leased to the United States. Taleb had planned an attack on the White House using weapons and explosives. As part of the plea agreement, the defendant and the government agreed that the defendant should receive a 15-year sentence of imprisonment.
“Taheb planned to conduct a terrorist attack on the White House as part of what he claimed was his obligation to engage in jihad,” said Assistant Attorney General for National Security John C. Demers. “And that was just one of the iconic American landmarks he wanted to target. Thanks to a tip from a member of the community and the work of the agents, analysts, and prosecutors responsible for this case, the threat posed by the defendant was neutralized and the defendant has admitted his guilt and will now be held accountable for his crime.”
“Taheb hatched a dangerous plan that would have resulted in unimaginable injury,” said Byung J. “BJay” Pak, U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Georgia. “We are grateful to community members who noticed his dangerous evolution and alerted law enforcement. Along with our federal, state and local partners, we will remain vigilant in order to disrupt these types of attacks before they happen.”
“This plea is the result of a more than year-long intensive investigation by FBI Atlanta’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, which was because of a tip from the community,” said Chris Hacker, Special Agent in Charge of FBI Atlanta. “Our citizens are our most important weapons in fighting terrorism, our eyes and ears in our communities, and why we say to please contact law enforcement if you see or hear something suspicious.”…….

76% of Americans have never heard of QAnon
Posted 2:18 p.m. yesterday
By Analysis by Chris Cillizza, CNN Editor-at-large
CNN — QAnon. Ever heard of it?
If you're like most Americans, the answer to that question is "no." In fact, fully three quarters (76%) of Americans said they had never heard of the broad-scale, internet-based conspiracy group in new Pew polling. One in 5 people said they had heard "a little" about the QAnon movement while 3% said they had heard "a lot."
Those numbers are intriguing to say the least – mostly because we simply haven't had much (or any) credible polling on how much penetration QAnon had made into mainstream consciousness. The Pew numbers function as a sort of baseline in that regard: Roughly 1 in 4 Americans have even heard of QAnon.
Which is, candidly, reassuring, given the conspiracy theories that QAnon embraces…….
