"He told a sheriff’s deputy that he disapproved of the government and President Biden and that he was traveling to Washington, D.C. He was carrying a 'hit list' of targets saved from TikTok videos.... Authorities described Xiong’s vehicle as 'lived in,' with several empty cans of Red Bull energy drink.... Police also found money in the vehicle 'earmarked' for Xiong’s funeral expenses, and his GPS was set for the White House.... 'Xiong believes that he is the only person remaining who can free the United States of evil and it is necessary for him to kill those in positions of power,' Special Agent Justin Larson with the Secret Service said in the affidavit.... Targets included former Presidents Clinton and Obama, White House medical advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci and Meta Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg.... He also detailed his plan to get into the White House through what he described as a 'weak spot' and how he would use a grappling hook to climb over the perimeter fencing...."
From "Merced man arrested on way to White House with rifle, ‘hit list’ compiled from TikTok" (L.A. Times).

This guy is being held in the jail in Council Bluffs; twenty miles from the HQ of the Omaha World-Herald. As of now, no OWH story on this. The OWH is worthless and crime (along with Husker sports) are the two topics it focuses on.
He's a diversion. The actual attacker is still on his way, via the Metaverse. You'll know him because he's carrying two grappling hooks instead of one. And he's wearing purple 'Hello Kitty' glasses.
If you see him in the Metaverse, contact the MetaFBI. You'll know them by their oversized hands. No one knows why they have these hands.
Nancy Pelosi is already trying to get a subpoena for him to testify at her January 6 hearings.
We need to know if the FBI set him up, bought the guns and the grappling hook. It's about a 50:50 chance.
pro tip: IF you're on your way to commit a nefarious act*... Don't drive aggressively
nefarious act* gilbar's public statement is that he, in no way, condones nefariousisms
The only two comments (so far) at the LA Times:
"Right idea, wrong administration."
"The only thing I find really surprising about this story is Xiong's name. Except for the obviously Oriental name, he could be any one of the many right wing nuts and/or members of Trump's "Republican Base" who hold similar views, are similarly armed and who are making similar plans. America is going through the deepest and most psychotic period in its history and this sort of thing, while rare, is not that unusual. I only wonder just how bad it will eventually get?"
Another mental health crisis that will be portrayed (if at all, given that he’s a minority) as a gun crisis.
Mr. Forward: They must be meaning James Hodgkinson? That RW nut job, yes? Gotta be…
Fool, (I hope I don't go to Hell for that!) we were supposed to talk about the weak spot in WH defenses on secure comms only. It was going to be easy as shooting wumprats from a land speeder! Now they know!
N.B. For any Feds reading this, that was sarcasm.
See, Althouse? See what watching Tik Tok will do to you?
The guy’s from California? Someone from the staff of Kamala Harris is behind it! No question.
Clearly a White man of Chinese descent.
Surprised the LA Times missed that fact.
Look, the solution is to ban Tik Tok.
If Manchin won’t go along we need commonsense Tik Tok regulation.
Sounds BPAD
Sounds Fake. An attempt to gin up sympathy. Why despose of President Biden? He's a senile puppet. God knows who' REALLY President and making all the decisions. Probably Jill.
THe problem with the Democrats is fighting them is like fighting a robot army. They all think and act the same. Get rid of one, and another robot just like it comes after you.
WTH is an "AR-15 type" rifle. It was or it wasn't. And please tell me the significance of either answer.
"...his GPS was set for the White House..."
Never set your GPS for the White House. Pick an address down the street to confuse those listening in.

It is hard to parody this situation.
We are trying hard.
But this regime and it's adherents are so pathetic.
This seems to be someone with mental health issues and I don't know why it's newsworthy. Because his fixations were on people in the public eye, that he was receiving messages through the internet? He'd be just as sick and as dangerous if he'd thought the cash register was sending him a hit list made up of co-workers at the grocery store where he was laying low until God called on him. But then in that case he probably wouldn't have made the LA Times, not unless he'd been able to act out the divine directives more completely.
So was it religion or politics or technology? What made this man crazy?
it's why they call it the dog trainer,
A clear false flag operation. We all know that the right is non-violent in words and deeds.
...he must not have been driving an SUV.
I’m curious about the vehicle ‘lived in’/‘just real dirty inside’ threshold.
Mr. Xiong is probably wrong. At least about being the only person able to stop Biden. It won't take a lone loony gunman to remove this stain on the Republic. The old dementia patient Biden has been undone rather successfully by a chant started at a NASCAR event by a minor sports interviewer, for goodness sake. Even Biden has repeated and agreed with "Let's go, Brandon!" on live TV. Let the ridicule continue and the old man be destroyed in the traditional manner, through being publicly reviled and despised.
How many FBI agents does it take to change a dim bulb into a lone wolf?

Case in point.
It is hard to create a parody of people this gullible and stupid.
We know tha Xiong is delusional because he apparently thought the source of California’s immediate problems lay in DC, not Sacramento.
TJ: There are rifles sorta kinda like an AR-15 that are still legal to purchase in California, which I suggest might be the kind carried in the vehicle by the loony. California has odd rules about the magazine being semi-nonremovable, the stock not having a normal grip, and so on, more to prevent most rifles from being legal there than for any other logical reason. Think of the clumsy, misshapen rifles the Gorillas carried in the original "Planet of the Apes" and you have an idea of what an "AR-15 type" gun from California might look like.
rehajm: The threshold between lived in and just real dirty inside involves dirty, used underwear and socks piled up on the back seat, or other objective observables of a similar nature.
Redbull marketing weenies high fivin' in the office this morn.
Mikee:
So, rifle is not descriptive enough? Thanks to you, I now know that AR-15s are not legal for sale in CA. I did not know that. I still don't understand the significance of the "AR-15 type" except to scare people with misconceptions of assault rifles...oh..
It’s not really “like an AR-15” if he purchased here in California. He’s too young to have acquired one when they were legal here. It is true that most political assassins are lefties. It’s also true that lotsa lefties have turned on Biden, but Xiong’s hit list looks pretty partisan.
Targets included former Presidents Clinton and Obama, White House medical advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci and Meta Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg....
I guess he understands that Biden isn't really running the country, so maybe he's not so crazy after all ...
I miss the Ford/Reagan years, though, when presidential assassins and would-be assassins could just be lone nuts instead of representative of half the country ...
I feel sad that Stephen Sondheim died before he could work Kuachua into Assassins ...
And I can't help wondering which brand of Space Diapers Kuachua was wearing when he was apprehended ...
I like how this type of story exactly fits any and every possible Dunning Kruger prior. The Davos billionaires can't wait to hard wire this mental condition in the Metaverse.
I'm sure he will be labelled "white Asian" on CNN. But frankly, if these white whale right wing terrorists can't even make it out of Iowa undetected, I'm not sure we have much to fear from them.
And why are we hearing of this now?
I have to believe that something like this happens every week or so...
The obvious conclusion?
Red Bull must be banned immediately!
...on December 21st
Why is this news today, on December 30th?
“it's why they call it the *dog trainer,”
Coined by Patterico, who stopped calling it that as soon as they published his op-ed.
It's not like he shot some Congressmen at a ballfield........................
After the fakery against Youngkin, it's increasingly obvious that crisis actors like this are a common feature in America. Especially when you need to hype a media narrative, then forget the case forever.
Driving into DC with an AR-15 is like trying to 1v1 Hitler, and you may as well have chatted up She-Wolf Ilsa in her Gestapo getup the night before if you had to GOOGLE your targets. Think globalist, act locally!

I think we have a thread winner!
I don't think Zuck is in DC. Unless maybe he's testilying to Congress again.
He tried to drive from CA to DC? Obviously insane. Much cheaper to fly these days.
"I only wonder just how bad it will eventually get?"
People shitting in the streets being considered normal in many parts of California isn't bad enough for you yet?
he should have made list
items #1 >>> do not get stopped for traffic violations
I would have thought the FBI would warn him to mind his driving after he left California.
To all the above commenters: Thanks! You made my day. I can now go to bed with a chuckle in my throat and a song in my heart. (And this from a story about a would-be assassin!)
Achilles, you keep saying that trannies can't help being who and what they are, and we should let them do whatever the fuck they want.
so...why do you want to keep this guy from living his dream?
