The Peace Train, coming to a state capitol near you

Thursday, August 20, 2026

A New York woman plotted to bomb the New York State Capitol and kill state senators inside, repeatedly surveilling the building and buying materials for an explosive device before the FBI arrested her, according to a criminal complaint reviewed by Fox News Digital Thursday. Jessica Bowie, 35, of Albany, is charged with attempting to provide material support to ISIS. The FBI says she pledged allegiance to the terror group, discussed disguising a bomb in a DoorDash delivery bag and wanted to carry out the attack when state senators were meeting. She converted to Islam about five years ago and began going by the name "Aisha Saif." The affidavit also said that on May 28, 2026, Bowie, using the username "nusaybahsaif" on a social media platform, and told another user in Arabic: "Praise be to Allah for September 11th."

The vast majority of Domestic Terrorism in this country has for decades been perpetrated by far rwing white nationionalists, according to the FBI and DHS.

But of course, occasionally even the dimmest of squirrels gets to think they found an acorn.

Making another racist point.

The point of you is that you're racist.

Racism is the pumping heart of MAGA.

You merely make the point that there are crazy people in the world.

You're one of them.

I, for one, don't care what your color or religion are.

Pointing out that there are bad, crazy people out there helps you not one whit.

Donald Trump is a bad, crazy person.

You voted for him three times.

I'm just here to tell y'all ""Praise be to Allah for September 11th" on a social media platform.

The attached article and Corky's point in #1 can both be true at the same time.

Accepting that doesn't make one a racist.

If you're confused by that then ask for help....I'd be glad to slap the stupid out of you.

The best TTP of the Federal Bureau of Intimidation (FBI): Continue walking the untrained and unsuspecting squirrel into the trap.

Works like a charm every time online and then in person for the arrest, to wit:

"Oh, you're angry at the stupid AIPAC-controlled US government, too?"

"Yeah."

"Here are some websites to get the stuff you need."

"Gee, thanks, Mehmet!"

"Once you get the materials, I'll show you how to use it."

"You're a real doll, 'ya know that?"

"Yeah, I certainly am, aren't I? Now let's get busy, Jessica. I'll meet you at Valhalla Park off Niskayuna Road at noon on Thursday. I'll be wearing a bright green hat. Allahau Akbar!"

The FBI has always been interested in prosecuting air-tight convictions and this is how they do it.

I worked with the FBI on several cases and made two friends from the bureau over the years. They have long since retired and were decent family folks. I can't imagine either of my two friends doing this type of entrapment, but I can't ever be sure, can I?
