Summary

An anti-Trump conservative summit in Washington, DC, was evacuated Sunday due to a “credible bomb threat” allegedly sent by an account claiming to represent Enrique Tarrio, former Proud Boys leader.

The threat, which named several high-profile attendees, remains unverified by police. Tarrio, who was arrested over the weekend, denied involvement and threatened legal action.

The event, an alternative to CPAC, featured prominent anti-Trump conservatives and ex-law enforcement officers who had clashed with Tarrio earlier.

DC tensions were heightened amid the CPAC gathering and related protests.

      Fuck I can’t believe they did this to this convention if it was a crime. Do you think they knew that? If only they were super liberal smart they might have not done this if they knew the danger

      I think they’re saying the anti-Trump conservatives should call them in on other conservatives.

        Also if a credit card is absolutely needed buy a prepaid card with cash. Use a public computer somewhere to activate it. Also get one of the card that does not ask for personal information.

        Put a pebble in your shoe or something that’ll make you naturally change your gait.
