00:21:58.640You guys know we heard from him yesterday, so he's a familiar face here as well.
00:22:06.280If you guys remember, her and him came out yesterday.
00:22:11.220Now, real quick for you guys, so you guys kind of know, recap.
00:22:15.480So, basically guys, what ended up happening was this guy was arrested yesterday for what they call using a makeshift flamethrower and or basically hurling Molotov cocktails.
00:22:30.120And what ended up happening was he got arrested by the police, they took him into custody, FBI started to investigate, and, you know, there was, I think, seven or eight burn victims.
00:22:44.860Some of them had to be transported to all different parts of Colorado depending on the severity of their burns.
00:22:49.020And this went down yesterday somewhere around like 1 or 2 p.m.
00:22:52.200And it was in the middle of a pro-Israel rally, okay?
00:22:57.460Anyway, these people were protesting and calling for the immediate release of the hostages, as you guys know, that occurred on October 7th.
00:23:04.780And this guy basically was throwing cocktails at them, Molotov cocktails at them.
00:23:11.280And as he was, you know, bickering with the people, they basically, you know, and I'll show you guys the clip real quick, because this shit was actually wild, what the zoo was doing yesterday, bro.
00:30:34.860Washington, the Justice Department has filed federal charges against illegal alien Mohammed Sabri Salomon,
00:30:39.960the alleged perpetrator of yesterday's anti-Semitic terrorist attack in Colorado.
00:30:43.220Attorney General Pamela Bondi released the following statement.
00:30:45.620The DOJ has swiftly charged the illegal alien perpetrator of this heinous attack with federal hate crime and will hold him accountable to the fullest extent of the law.
00:30:52.300Our prayers are with the victims and our Jewish community across the world.
00:30:54.640Of course, he's going to sit for them.
00:30:55.520This anti-Semitic violence comes just weeks after the horrific murder of two young Jewish Americans in Washington, D.C.
00:31:00.860We will never tolerate this kind of hatred.
00:31:04.940Refuse to accept the world in which Jewish Americans are targeted for who they are and what they believe.
00:31:08.840Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dillon released the following statement.
00:31:14.480No American should experience violence motivated by hatred based on their faith or national origin,
00:31:19.440and the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice will act swiftly and decisively to bring the perpetrators of such crimes to justice.
00:31:25.880There can be zero tolerance for such an act in our great nation.
00:31:28.360In background, Solomon is charged with federal hate crime in addition to facing other state charges for attempted murder in Colorado.
00:31:36.260We will go ahead and go over this in detail.
00:31:40.160Let's watch the rest of this press conference.
00:31:43.200And, you know, guys, it's interesting because, you know, I predicted this.
00:31:48.320I told you guys that, you know, this was going to potentially happen where we would have this situation
00:31:55.340where basically where we would have these idiots do this stuff and completely, you know, take away from the the aid
00:32:10.820and the attention that needs to be brought over to Gaza as far as, like, you know, getting aid over there.
00:32:16.220OK, and this is why I couldn't have violence so strongly, because it doesn't get anything done.
00:32:23.800It truly doesn't get anything done and it's not needed.
00:32:28.360So when these fucking idiots do this type of shit, they they're not helping at all.
00:32:33.360He's over here talking about, oh, yeah, free Palestine and the kids and also the shit.
00:32:36.840But he's not doing anything to help the cause.
00:32:39.000He's actually making it worse because, like I told you guys before, people like to use events like this to push their own political agenda.
00:32:47.200Right. When the embassy attacks happened, what did Benjamin Netanyahu do?
00:32:51.080He went on TV and he said, hey, these anti-Semitic attacks are rising.
00:32:56.280This is a problem. Blah, blah, blah. Israel, we need to defend ourselves.
00:32:59.160And it bolsters his rhetoric of we need to be aggressive against Israel's enemies.
00:33:03.500Then you had John the Greenblatt get on CNN and say, oh, see, anti-Semitism is on the rise.
00:33:10.980We need to take action. We need to start banning people.
00:33:15.680Attacks like this are inspired by people like Hassan Piker, which is wildly fucking defamatory.
00:33:21.220Look, I don't like Hassan. You guys know I don't get along with him.
00:33:23.940Whatever. But that's crazy to me that he would make that conclusion and infer, oh, yeah, this this embassy guy that shot these two Israelis.
00:33:33.060Yeah, he did it because because of watching Hassan Piker streams.
00:33:36.360What? That doesn't even like make sense.
00:33:40.080But again, it's these radical leftist retards, right, that use violence to perpetrate their political ideology.
00:33:48.700And that's just not acceptable. Right.
00:33:50.400Every person that's gotten arrested or, you know, dealt with some stuff like this.
00:33:54.980If you guys notice on the pro-Palestine side, they're all Democrat, liberal motherfuckers.
00:48:32.500He's talking about genocide this, apartheid that, but he can't actually defend those worldviews or debate those worldviews because he sits in his room all day.
00:48:41.500And then someone like Ethan Klein, who's a fucking retard, by the way, not intelligent whatsoever.
00:48:52.500And the other thing, too, also, that I think is important for you guys to realize, is debating is a skill.
00:49:01.500It's not, it's, you know, you can have all the knowledge in the world, but if you can't articulate and get those ideas out in a way where you're not only able to be convincing, or you're able to summarize certain points in a nice, salient manner, or cogent manner, you're not going to get through to the people.
00:49:18.500So, Hasan's very knowledgeable on Middle Eastern foreign policy.
00:49:47.500It's not about necessarily your ideas as much as it's about getting your ideas out in front of other people while it's being challenged by the opposition.
00:49:53.500That's where you convince the most people.
00:53:49.020I'm the district attorney for Boulder County.
00:53:51.000And if you guys remember, we saw him speak yesterday as well.
00:53:54.940Appreciate the members of the media who are here today so we can help provide this update
00:53:58.920to a grieving and traumatized community.
00:54:01.380What you see here today is us standing shoulder to shoulder, ensuring that justice is done in
00:54:08.100response to this tragic and terrible attack.
00:54:10.660We stand united in denouncing hate, terror, and violence in this community.
00:54:17.080We're united in condemning acts of anti-Semitism, hate, and violence.
00:54:22.980And we're also united in a strong response to this horrific attack.
00:54:28.200I stand with this community and the people of the state of Colorado against hate and terror.
00:54:33.940And we are united in our commitment, both at the federal level and the state level, in pursuing and
00:54:41.660securing justice for the victims of this mass attack and for the communities that we serve.
00:54:48.340Boulder is a beautiful and special place.
00:54:51.460But we're not immune from mass violence or hate crimes, including violent acts of anti-Semitism that impact far too many communities across this country.
00:55:02.180And yesterday afternoon on a beautiful day here in Colorado, a number of people participated in a peaceful walk and gathering on Pearl Street here in Boulder.
00:55:10.780It is a place where a lot of people gather every day.
00:55:15.500And the ones who join in this peaceful gathering are now the victims of a senseless, unjustified, and horrific mass attack.
00:55:25.140And to all the victims, their loved ones, and to this community, I promise you that each one of us up here today will work tirelessly to ensure that justice is done and the defendant is held fully accountable.
00:55:37.700I want to recognize, as the U.S. Attorney did, the response by community members who helped in the minutes immediately following the attack and came to render aid to victims who had suffered through a horrific attack upon them.
00:55:53.860Also, I want to recognize the courage and the rapid response by the Boulder Police Department, who once again were called to respond to a truly horrific attack upon innocent members of our community
00:56:05.640and responded without a second of delay, I will highlight for you that there were 16 unused Molotov cocktails that were recovered by law enforcement.
00:56:52.360The FBI is at location in El Paso County, Colorado, conducting court-authorized law enforcement activity related to the attack on the Pearl Street Mall.
00:56:58.280As soon as they said this, I was like, yep, they're doing search warrants.
00:57:01.440Court-authorized, nine out of ten times, it means that there's a search being involved.
00:57:06.300So, when they said this, I knew they were more than likely at his house searching everything.
00:57:11.680So, and this was, you know, hours after the first event happened.
01:00:20.220And then the attempted use would be 192 years.
01:00:22.520The judge set a $10 million cash-only bond on the state charges.
01:00:28.780As you are aware, he's going to be going before the judge this afternoon at the jail.
01:00:33.020I believe that is scheduled for 3.30, but I rely on the sheriff's office to communicate with members of the media at the exact time.
01:00:38.620Thanks to the investigation by federal, state, and local partners.
01:00:44.380And I just want to highlight for you, this is a horrific attack.
01:00:48.380But as district attorney, when I walk into this building and I see the FBI, Boulder PD, and all the law enforcement partners working, it's the exact response I hope to see.
01:00:57.880The teamwork they demonstrate, the work they put into it, if you were downstairs right now, you'd see incredible law enforcement officers and investigators working calmly, professionally, and tirelessly to ensure we get all the information we need to get the right outcome in the criminal cases that the U.S. Attorney's Office and my office will prosecute.
01:01:16.320Through their work, we've now identified four additional victims.
01:01:23.180And as you'll hear from the FBI special agent in charge, we're going to continue to encourage victims and witnesses to come forward and contact law enforcement.
01:01:39.200So the filing of formal charges by the district attorney's office will reflect 12 victims, and if more come forward, additional victims as well.
01:01:49.360On my final note, what I want to stress is this community has experienced too many tragedies, fires, floods, and mass attacks.
01:02:01.140But each time I've seen this great community respond with strength, resilience, and support for one another.
01:02:10.020I trust and hope that that will happen again now.
01:02:13.720That for the many members of the community who have come forward before to help one another, to support one another, to comfort one another, that that will happen again today and in the weeks, months going forward.
01:02:26.620That once again, our community will rally to restore peace and to bring support and comfort one another during this dark hour.
01:02:36.800As your district attorney, I want to remind the members of the media and the community that the defendant's innocent unless and until proven guilty, and the charges are merely allegations.
01:02:45.200I'm going to turn it over to the special agent in charge of the FBI, and then we're happy to take questions after each one of us is done.
01:02:56.020I'm Mark McCulloch, special agent in charge of the FBI's Denver field office.
01:03:00.080I want to provide a quick investigative update.
01:03:03.740The FBI has been here on the scene in Boulder for the past 24 hours, and we stand shoulder to shoulder with the Boulder Police Department and our partners.
01:03:12.020Their heroic and swift actions clearly saved lives.
01:03:15.320As mentioned, there were 16 unused Molotov cocktails within arm's reach of the subject at the time of his arrest.
01:03:25.920All right, they might have found it in this car then, since they're saying within arm's reach.
01:03:30.600First responders saved lives and prevented further victims from being injured.
01:03:35.220And I think the fact that we have both federal and state charges within 24 hours of this attack is a testament to the strength of the partnerships, the professionalism of the investigators, and our commitment to the community and to each other to pursue justice.
01:03:49.680We continue to support the victims, their families, and the greater community with personnel and resources.
01:03:55.640Our hearts go out to the victims, and we want you to know that we are committed to being here for you.
01:04:03.260Since 2 o'clock yesterday, more than 30 special agents, intelligence experts, and professional staff have deployed to provide forensic, investigative, and crisis management support, as well as additional...
01:04:15.840And guys, this is going to be FBI Denver.
01:04:17.800Remember, the main office is out of Denver.
01:05:03.720...forters in Washington, D.C., and they're on the way.
01:05:08.400While at this time it appears the perpetrator acted alone, we do continue to investigate all possibilities and pursue all investigative leads.
01:05:16.680If we uncover evidence that others knew of this attack or supported the subject in this attack, rest assured that we will aggressively move to hold them accountable to the fullest extent of the law.
01:05:28.800High likelihood, he probably did this alone, like they always do with these guys, because the days of conspiracy, you know, terrorism, it's kind of just done because everyone is so scared of getting caught by the FBI.
01:05:41.800So, a lot of these, you know, these, especially like these homegrown guys, they just do shit on their own.
01:05:50.200Since the investigation began 24 hours ago, the FBI has conducted 44 witness interviews.
01:05:58.440We've executed search warrants on vehicles.
01:06:04.980We've deployed our full evidence response team, both to Boulder at the main crime scene, and the execution of a search warrant at a residence tied to the subject in Colorado Springs.
01:06:17.620Members of the ERT worked through the night to gather all evidence so that the Pearl Street could swiftly be reopened this morning.
01:06:24.800We've deployed victim specialists to hospitals and assigned one to each and every victim that's been identified to date.
01:06:30.960We've set up a digital media tip line.
01:06:33.480We've deployed a mobile command post for information sharing and evidence control, and we continue to canvass for witnesses, additional victims, and camera footage.
01:06:45.760We ask that you call us at 1-800-CALL-FBI if you have any information about the events that transpired yesterday.
01:06:52.840If you saw something, if you heard something, if you have information, our investigators want to hear from you.
01:06:58.820If you have multimedia evidence, whether that is photos, social media posts, or videos related to the attack, please visit the site that we've established, and you can provide your information at FBI.gov backslash BoulderAttack.
01:07:12.820We at the FBI are not tracking any credible threats to the Boulder community at this time.
01:07:19.820However, if you see something suspicious, we urge you to call 911.
01:07:24.820The FBI takes seriously its mission to protect the American people of the United States, both nationally as well as here and in Boulder.
01:07:35.100Hate-fueled acts of violence have no place in our community, and we will use every tool and resource available to hold those who commit such acts fully accountable.
01:07:45.620All right, get your chats in, guys. I'm going to read chats here in a second, then we're going to read the criminal complaint.
01:07:57.480Thank you. Good afternoon. Again, my name is Stephen Redfern. I have the honor to serve as the police chief here in Boulder.
01:08:03.720I want to give a few updates from the city and the police.
01:08:06.380And the way you guys can support the show, MyronGainesX.com. You can super chat there.
01:08:10.120Rumble Rant Inn, if you're watching on Rumble or Cal's Club, if you're watching on Cal's Club.
01:08:14.160Department, before we take some questions. So today, in the aftermath of this heinous terrorist attack in our city, I again want to start with thanking our partners.
01:08:24.180I think we've all alluded to the importance of partnerships. I can tell you, as I was rushing to the scene yesterday, one of the first or second calls I made was to the special agent in charge,
01:08:33.360because no matter what this ended up being, I knew we would need help.
01:08:37.280And once again, the FBI, all of our state, local and federal partners have stepped up and we are.
01:08:44.100Now, this is kind of common, guys. I will say this. You can tell that there's a bond between these different agencies,
01:08:48.140because typically when you have smaller towns like this, the law enforcement tends to know each other, you know,
01:08:55.000and they just have each other's like contacts always saved and they deal with each other.
01:08:59.000Because when, especially at the federal level, because when you're like not in as big of a city, you rely a lot upon your state and local partners to help you out with operations.
01:09:08.100So what ends up happening is people just know each other. So like when I was on the job, like there was like an ATF guy that I always would call,
01:09:14.820a DEA guy I always would call. I would have like POCs at every single agency.
01:09:18.020So anytime I needed something, I'll just hit them up, because a lot of the times you might not have the personnel or the manpower to get shit done.
01:09:24.420So you can, you know, call guys from other agencies and they'll show up and they'll help out with whether it's being on surveillance,
01:09:29.900doing a drug buy, doing a gun buy, doing a control purchase of some kind.
01:09:33.860When you have other people from other agencies, you're able to kind of leverage that relationship to your benefit.
01:09:39.840And this is especially important when you live in places that maybe might not come from a big field office, right?
01:09:46.000Maybe the FBI office in Boulder has maybe 10 or 20 guys, right?
01:09:51.060You quickly figure out that when you're trying to run operations, having only 20 or 20, 10 or 20 guys in your office is not enough to do, you know, big, large scale operations.
01:10:00.480So using the state and locals is extremely important to get shit done.
01:10:05.120So what ends up happening a lot of times is you end up building really strong working relationships with these different agencies of where you work from.
01:10:14.300Absolutely. In a really good place for 24 hours.
01:10:17.380And this is very common where the chief of police is obviously going to know who the special agent in charge is of the FBI,
01:10:23.700because like they're the functional equivalent of each other in their given agency.
01:10:27.360Obviously, chief of police is the top guy for them, special agent in charge is the top guy for the FBI.
01:10:31.440You know, chief of police, right, you're overseeing everything.
01:10:33.540Same thing with the SAC. Are they carrying cases? No.
01:10:36.280Are they out there arresting people every day? No.
01:10:38.160Neither of them are. They're paper pushers.
01:10:40.000And it's more of an administrative position.
01:10:43.480But, you know, they are the representatives and the faces of their respective agencies.
01:10:48.420So that's why they're the ones running the press conference.
01:10:50.260But I guarantee you Boulder, Colorado probably has what's called a case detective on this case.
01:10:55.440The FBI has what's called a case agent on this case.
01:10:57.600And the case detective and the case agent are working together, doing the interviews together, drafting up affidavits together.
01:11:04.540Maybe some affidavits are federal. Other ones are state.
01:11:07.820I'm assuming that probably a lot of the warrants that they got probably are going to be state ones because the state could get shit done faster.
01:11:14.220But I wouldn't be surprised if they were federal either, because given the magnitude of this case and the amount of precedents going, no magistrate judge is going to give you a hard time about getting a warrant signed on a terrorism case.
01:11:24.540So but these are just some of the ways that state and locals end up working together, typically, especially in smaller communities.
01:11:31.220This investigation, in my opinion, Michael Doherty alluded to it, but the work that I've seen in this building and out on the street in the last 24 hours is remarkable.
01:11:41.160And every single person working on this investigation is doing their job above and beyond to bring justice to these victims, including the men that stand behind me here.
01:12:03.440We spent an extensive amount of time yesterday up until the early morning hours today with bomb dogs, our bomb squads, ensuring that there were no other threats in the area.
01:12:13.540And people were allowed after midnight to go back and get vehicles.
01:12:17.480And businesses have been allowed to reopen if they so choose.
01:12:20.480I can tell you this morning I walked down Pearl Street with members of my team.
01:12:25.020I interacted with a lot of business owners, community out there.
01:12:27.640And the way I felt leaving there was I was heartened.
01:12:32.100I was heartened by the resilience of our community, the positive attitude that people had, the understanding of the inconvenience of yesterday with businesses having to close.
01:12:41.600And really, I walked out of that thinking, you know, we're going to be okay.
01:12:45.440Once again, as a community, we're going to recover after coming together.
01:12:56.000We're aware of things coming up in the next, we're looking seven to ten days out at other events.
01:13:00.620And we are going to ensure, along with our partners, that we have adequate coverage, law enforcement coverage, security, at any event that's taking place this week.
01:13:10.600We want to ensure that people feel comfortable and safe in this community gathering and remembering what happened, as well as any other planned events that we have.
01:13:19.200We will be relying upon our partners, such as the State Patrol, to ensure that we have proper coverage where people can feel safe.
01:13:26.780Before this attack, we had very strong, the Boulder Police Department in the city of Boulder had very strong relationships with our Jewish community.
01:13:33.500We even have an officer assigned as a Jewish community liaison with Boulder PD.
01:13:38.000Those relationships have paid off dividends during this attack.
01:13:41.780And I know going forward in the aftermath, we're going to continue to work with our community.
01:13:46.560I've been in contact via phone, email, and text throughout the day and last night with members of our Jewish community.
01:13:52.440Myself and the district attorney will be leaving shortly to have a meeting with community leaders from our Jewish community, as well.
01:13:58.740The message there, the bottom line message, is we want everyone to feel safe.
01:14:02.020We will not condone these types of attacks and acts in our community.
01:14:08.100It is never an inconvenience for someone to call the police if they feel uncomfortable about a situation, if they see something odd, if they see a person acting in a suspicious manner.
01:14:18.020Let us come out and let us determine if there is some validity to people's suspicions.
01:14:24.580So please call us if you see something.
01:14:26.260Literally, the old see something, say something adage applies here.
01:14:29.460Please call us if there's anything that's making you feel uncomfortable in the community.
01:14:32.980And lastly, I just want to say again, we have been contacted the city and the police department from all over the world with outpouring of support, messages of support, and I want to thank you.
01:14:47.320With that, I'm going to turn it back over to our public information officers for some questions.
01:14:50.880All right, I will try to call on people for questions, and I will repeat the question, hopefully, so everybody can hear it and then turn it over to our experts for answers.
01:15:39.640See, I told you guys, there are going to be a detective and FBI guy on every single one of these interviews.
01:15:44.600Timeline using video, license plate readers, all of those things relying heavily on our federal partners.
01:15:51.060As of right now, I have not been made aware that we actually have video of him carrying anything into that area.
01:15:56.080Obviously, we're looking at that, and if someone were to have that video, please contact the 1-800 number that the special agent in charge mentioned,
01:16:14.280Yes, can you tell us any updates on the eight original victims, and then any more information on the four people that you've identified as well?
01:16:22.480The question is if we can provide additional information about the eight victims that we previously mentioned, and the new four that came up today.
01:16:33.780Regarding the victims, prior to this press conference, I received an update that we still have two victims in the hospital.
01:16:39.680I believe those are the two that were flown to University Hospital in Aurora.
01:16:44.340I believe the victims, the additional victims that we learned of today, the reason we didn't know about them until today was their injuries.
01:16:52.320Thankfully, we're more minor in nature.
01:16:54.040They've come forward to be interviewed and things, and then we realize that they did have injuries.
01:16:57.440So we're counting everyone who received any sort of injury in this attack in that.
01:17:02.220And that's important for them for charges.
01:17:48.580But in the area, we had 20 to 30 folks right there at the courthouse with a lot of other people coming and going with the businesses right there.
01:18:38.380Or did something change in the charging decision?
01:18:41.140So the question is for the U.S. attorney's office about the fact that yesterday terrorism was mentioned and we see a hate crime charge today.
01:18:50.720Also, just so you guys know, this happens a lot where if you got a more – if you have a serious charge, right, like terrorism or material support or something like that, obviously you need a significant amount of evidence to charge that.
01:19:03.500But what ends up happening a lot of times when you file a criminal complaint, right, is think of a criminal complaint as kind of like a holdover, right?
01:19:11.140It allows you to begin the judicial process of getting this individual into the court system federally.
01:19:16.140And when you arrest them on a criminal complaint, you get that arrest warrant and you go get them, you can always come back and indict later with updated charges.
01:19:26.320So in this case, they're going to have to indict this case, okay?
01:19:29.740And an indictment, guys, is a formal charge by a grand jury.
01:19:32.800So you do the criminal complaint with the easiest charges you can prove readily with the probable cause that you have.
01:19:37.920Because remember, guys, as the investigation starts off, the evidence in the beginning isn't as strong as later on.
01:19:46.560You know, you're doing interviews, you're finding a piece of information here, you're finding a piece of information there, you're finding this here, there, blah, blah, blah.
01:19:51.880So what you do is in the beginning of the investigation, your job is to get the information that you have compiled to the best that you can and just get kind of like a charge that you can like just get on them, right?
01:20:03.380A simple charge that's easy to prove or probable cause for the criminal complaint.
01:20:06.840Okay, once you have that charge established, right, and you got the guy under custody, now you can start the more meticulous process of building evidence for a more complex charge, okay?
01:20:19.780Typically, when you arrest someone on a criminal complaint, most jurisdictions, they're going to want you to indict that individual within 14 days, roughly, okay?
01:20:26.860So you arrest them on a criminal complaint, let's say, on Monday.
01:20:29.640Within two Mondays, they want you to have that guy indicted by a grand jury and have actual formal charges, okay?
01:20:34.760In that two weeks, you can go ahead and add charges to it or just formally charge them on the charge you got them on, like in this case, hate crime.
01:20:45.900Then, as the case progresses, a month later, two months later, you could do what's called the superseding indictment.
01:20:52.020And in that charge, and when you do the superseding indictment, that's where you add in these other more serious charges.
01:22:56.560So we've moved swiftly to charge quickly just to send the message to the community that no acts of anti-Semitism are going to be tolerated and there are severe consequences.
01:23:07.680Just because there's only one charge that has been made so far doesn't mean that we're not considering other charges that could come in the future.
01:23:16.300Translation, he said, oh, we want to show that this is intolerable, blah, blah, blah.
01:23:20.280No, it's because this case got huge media coverage that you guys went ahead and filed a criminal complaint right away.
01:23:25.600Now, he's not going to admit that, obviously, but that's the real reason.
01:24:53.420For two or three years, is there any knowledge of how they've been cooperating and what happens to them moving forward given the situation?
01:25:06.180The question is about the suspect's family and their status and what might happen to them next.
01:25:13.120As far as the family, as I mentioned, we executed a search warrant at the residence in Colorado Springs last night, and the family was cooperative for that.
01:25:25.100Regarding their status, I would just defer you to the Department of Homeland Security.
01:25:38.600It's a logical part of our investigation to see if there's additional evidence there.
01:25:42.620Evidence was recovered, including digital evidence, and we're reviewing that now to determine, as the acting U.S. attorney said, if additional charges are warranted down the road.
01:25:51.800They want to see if it feels working with any other people.
01:25:54.560That's really the big thing, identifying other co-conspirators.
01:26:04.540So the question was, was the subject on our radar locally as part of our Joint Terrorism Task Force?
01:26:29.680So last question on the specifics on the incendiary devices.
01:26:33.340There were really two chunks of incendiary devices that were recovered.
01:26:38.340We've referred to Molotov cocktails, which are like glass jars with material in them that are combustible, flammable, like gasoline, and then a rag that's used with a fire to ignite them and throw them.
01:26:53.260In addition to that, it appeared he had a backpack for like a weed killer, but that contained flammable liquid in it as well.
01:27:02.040All right, so later this afternoon, I can tell you that the U.S. Attorney's Office will have a brief news release that will be made public.
01:27:12.780And that's what I read to you guys here with that.
01:27:16.900We don't anticipate another large media briefing at any time in the future, but the prosecutor's offices, both the district attorney as well as the U.S. Attorney's Office, will have updates for the media as their cases proceed.
01:27:30.560And now at this time, our principals here do have another meeting to attend, as they referred to.
01:27:35.640So thank you very much for coming today.
01:31:31.260And, uh, guys, please spell check before you guys send chats in, because I'm, like, trying to read your stuff verbatim as you guys send it.
01:31:36.020And, uh, some of you guys have some atrocious grammar, and it, like, delays me in reading it.
01:31:39.780So, do your best to try to, uh, help your boy out a little bit, man.
01:34:53.940So, I, Jessica Kruger, being duly sworn, deposed and state as follows.
01:34:58.260I see a criminal complaint charging Mohammed Suleiman with one count of hate crime offense involving the actual or perceived race, religion, or national origin in violation of 18 U.S.C. 249.
01:35:08.640Now, we get into our background, especially as the FBI has been so since November 2009.
01:35:12.920I'm involved in investigations of persons suspected of violations of federal law in the state of Colorado and throughout the United States.
01:35:17.560I've gained experience conducting investigations through formal training and consultation with local state and federal law enforcement agency, as well as from law enforcement investigations themselves, blah, blah, blah.
01:35:25.240So, she goes into her background, right?
01:35:37.160Some people don't always put this stuff in, but she did the jurisdiction of value statutory authority.
01:35:41.800I know in Denver, specifically with the United States Attorney's Office, they write the criminal complaints for their agents.
01:35:46.300So, this probably was written by the AUSA, which is absolutely crazy to me that their AUSAs write their fucking criminal complaints for them.
01:35:59.280But, hey, you know, it is what it is, I guess.
01:36:06.000So, anyway, let's get into the probable cause.
01:36:07.560The probable cause is the actual evidence chat, all right?
01:54:47.540all right ninja let's get it let's get to it
01:55:08.320ukrainian engineers designed a clever drone launching system disguised as ordinary wooden cabins
01:55:15.380mounted on the backs of cargo trucks these mobile containers looked like simple rural sheds but
01:55:21.340inside they held reinforced structures hidden launch platforms battery charging stations and remote
01:55:27.320controlled roof mechanisms the design allowed for drones to be launched either vertically or at an angle
01:55:33.060depending on their type while built-in signal shielding helped them avoid early detection by russian
01:55:38.200surveillance once these mobile silos were ready ukrainian intelligence operatives possibly with help from
01:55:44.200local sympathizers moved them deep into russian territory the trucks were quietly driven to pre-selected
01:55:50.160sites near key air bases parked in places like forests farms or industrial areas where they blended into the
01:55:56.440landscape they remained dormant for days or even weeks with drones preloaded charge and waiting for
01:56:02.260the command to strike when the time came encrypted activation signals were sent remotely the roofs of the
01:56:07.960containers slid open and the drones lifted off some vertically others using ramps or compressed air launch
01:56:13.920systems for a silent start because the launch sites were positioned just a few kilometers around two miles from their
01:56:21.220targets the drones were able to reach their objective guys this is a modern warfare now man
01:56:26.100fucking drones everywhere man isn't it wild to see how warfare has changed so significantly went from like trench warfare in world war one to airfare world war two now it's literally just drones
01:56:37.920absolutely nuts absolutely nuts and if you guys are wondering i'm eating some dried mangoes here and some uh quest protein chips as you guys know
01:56:49.920just quickly leaving little time for russian defenses to react operators guided them in real time using live video feeds steering the drones with precision toward park aircraft fuel depots and radar installations
01:57:01.920many of the drones carried high explosive or shape charge warheads designed to pierce aircraft fuselages or ignite fuel stores some exploded on impact while others used delayed fuses to cause maximum damage after breaching their targets the operation was more than just a tactical win it highlighted the growing sophistication of drone warfare and ukraine's ability to strike deep inside russian territory in total 117 drones were launched in a highly
01:57:31.900coordinated attack that hit at least five major air bases among the targets were strategic bombers including aircraft russia no longer manufactures making their loss even more significant
01:57:43.900these are the area where ukraine struck 34 percent of russia's strategic bomber fleet ukraine targeted strategic nuclear bombers at the balea airbase in siberia
01:57:53.900other key military installations also came under attack including the ivanovo airbase northeast of moscow and the dyadzilevo airbase south of the capital a massive explosion rocked the arctic city of sevromorsk home to russia's largest fleet of nuclear submarines ukraine also struck the olenya guba naval base in the mermin's region reaching as far as siberia the operation inflicted serious damage reportedly destroying or disabling a significant portion of russia's strategic bomber fleet
01:58:21.900the strike marked a turning point not only in the conflict itself but in the evolution of drone warfare on the modern battlefield
01:58:31.900among the high priority targets were the 295 and 222 strategic bombers aircraft frequently used by russia to launch cruise missile attacks deep into ukrainian territory the a-50 airborne early warning and control aircraft vital for coordinating russian air operations and detecting incoming threats were also targeted
01:58:50.900according to ukrainian sources the impact of the strike was substantial more than 40 aircraft were reportedly hit while some were completely destroyed in the explosions others suffered significant damage rendering them inoperable for extended periods
01:59:05.900there are reports suggesting that ukraine may have been using fiber optic control systems which are immune to electronic warfare jamming at the front of the drone is a camera with an rpg warhead positioned just below it
01:59:17.900the warhead is flanked by two batteries located here in four propellers however the drone has a downside the added weight with the fiber optic reduces its flight time to just 15 to 20 minutes and its range is limited to only one mile or less
01:59:32.900this one compared to a standard drone without fiber optic it travel more than five miles which translates to around 10 kilometers to understand how ukraine launched these fpv drones let's take a look at how they are made
01:59:44.900first we have the carbon fiber frame which provides a lightweight yet strong structure the frame is designed to withstand the stresses of high speed flight and collisions
01:59:53.900next you'll notice the four propellers each connected to its corresponding motor these propellers are strategically designed with opposite angles to ensure smooth and balanced flight
02:00:03.900this counter rotation helps the drone maintain stability and agility during flight
02:00:10.900all of this advanced technology requires a central processor or what can be considered the brain of the drone
02:00:15.900this role is played by the thin motherboard placed here as you can see these are not covered which helps in reducing weight
02:00:21.900it manages all the flight operations processes data from sensors and translates commands from the remote control into action
02:00:27.900moving to the back of the drone we find the cables that connect the motherboard to the power supply which is provided by the battery
02:00:34.900the battery is one of the heaviest components of the drone due to its energy density
02:00:39.900depending on its size and capacity the battery can power the drone for anywhere between 20 to 30 minutes
02:00:45.900next let's move to the propellers and motors also meet power and precise instructions to function correctly
02:00:51.900they are connected through a series of cables located here both supply power and transmit control signals from the flight controller
02:01:00.900these cables are exposed to minimize weight ensuring the drone remains as light and efficient as possible
02:01:06.900at the front of the drone you'll find a camera that is connected to both the motherboard and the radio receiver
02:01:13.900allowing it to transmit live video footage back to the pilot
02:01:17.900this sev enables the pilot to see exactly where the drone is flying in real time providing crucial visual information for navigation and target acquisition
02:01:26.900however modern warfare has introduced new challenges
02:01:30.900for instance Russian forces are increasingly utilizing electronic warfare systems
02:01:35.900these systems work by jamming the radio signals between the drone and its pilot effectively disrupting communication and control
02:01:42.900when this happens the pilot loses the ability to see and control the drone which can lead to mission failure
02:01:47.900to counter these tactics the Ukrainians have developed an effective solution
02:01:52.900deploying an additional drone to act as a signal enhancer
02:01:55.900this secondary drone strengthens the connection between the primary drone and the pilot
02:02:01.900ensuring a stable link even in the presence of electronic interference
02:02:04.900by boosting the signal this method helps to neutralize the impact of the enemies electronic warfare units
02:02:11.900with this enhanced connection the pilot regains control and can continue to maneuver the drone toward its designated target
02:02:18.900maintaining operational effectiveness despite the enemies attempts to jam communications
02:02:23.900finally we have the warhead located here at the bottom
02:02:27.900this particular weapon is an RPG or in full form rocket propelled grenade
02:02:32.900if we take a closer look inside we can find the piezoelectric trigger
02:02:36.900this trigger mechanism is housed within the RPG warhead and features an air-filled cavity with a conical liner
02:02:43.900however this trigger might not function as intended if the drone is moving too slowly
02:02:48.900or if it strikes a solid mass like a tank not in full force
02:02:52.900in such cases the piezoelectric trigger may fail to activate
02:02:56.900to address this an additional trigger mechanism has been installed at the front of the warhead to ensure it detonates on impact either manually by the operator
02:03:04.900let's examine this warhead more closely at the front you'll find the piezoelectric trigger
02:03:11.900the piezoelectric trigger is a device that generates a voltage when subjected to deformation exploiting the piezoelectric effect
02:03:19.900its purpose is to measure changes in pressure acceleration temperature strain or force by converting these changes into an electrical charge
02:03:26.900just behind it there is an air-filled cavity and a conical liner
02:03:31.900this explosive is intentionally inverted and this configuration is designed to create a high velocity jet of heat
02:03:37.900this jet is meant to penetrate lightly armored vehicles or in some cases can even damage a main battle tank
02:03:43.900once the booster propels the rocket out of the tube the fins on the rocket open up to stabilize its flight path for its intended target
02:03:50.900remember the warhead or grenade we talked about earlier this is how it works
02:03:57.900it first hits the piezoelectric trigger which activates the detonator
02:04:01.900the warhead along with this conical liner converges to create a jet of steel and heat ready to penetrate a steel armor plate or vehicle
02:04:08.900a drone can also be equipped with different types of ammunition
02:04:12.900one option is the shotgun effect where the blast scatters shrapnel over a wide area increasing the chances of hitting enemy soldiers
02:04:19.900this mechanism can be manually triggered by the operator allowing for greater control and creating a more significant impact on the battlefield
02:04:26.900the reason ukraine took out these strategic nuclear bombers because they have been wrecking havoc
02:04:31.900let's take a look at how they might work
02:04:33.900the three planes can work together as nuclear and attack aircraft
02:04:37.900in stage one the 222m can sweep in and target enemies using kh-22 or 32 long-range supersonic anti-shipping cruise missiles or the kinzel
02:04:48.900specifically designed to engage us navy supercarriers
02:04:53.900meanwhile the two pole of 295 can be positioned as a command and control center
02:04:58.900while also striking less defended infrastructures like the usual communication towers
02:05:03.900this slows down the enemy responds in the battlefield
02:05:06.900finally the 2160 blackjack also known as the white swan would launch cruise missiles once in range
02:05:17.900these missiles would travel low and slow under enemy radar to reach her targets
02:05:21.900this tactic is typical for all bombers in a nuclear war scenario
02:05:25.900the 2160 can open its weapon bay doors and release nuclear cruise missiles one after another
02:05:31.900these cruise missiles deploy their wings when dropped and it can fly towards their targets creating a nuclear explosion upon impact
02:05:42.900so that's a big deal that ukraine took out some of russia's um nuclear capable aircraft
