Attorney General Pam Bondi has said the Department of Justice will seek a 20-year prison sentence for a man accused of throwing a firebomb at a Tesla dealership.

Bondi said Monday that Cooper Jo Frederick, who is accused of attacking a Tesla dealership in Loveland, Colorado, on March 7, would face federal charges.

      If it was a Ford dealership, can’t think of an immediate reason to firebomb it. This is a political act and its getting a political response. Anarchism springing up in the wake of a fascist seizure of power is just normal cause and effect.

        I mean, Henry Ford was also a Nazi. But he’s also been dead for some time now, and the current leadership at Ford isn’t actively engaged in a violent overthrow of the government.

          Sure. But as far as I can tell, Jim Farley is your standard issue empty suit (and… TIL, cousin to Chris Farley, RIP). If there’s a reason to get mad at the modern Ford Exec Team - beyond the boilerplate corporate waste, fraud, corruption, and abuse common to American big business - I’m not aware of it.

          Certainly, Farley isn’t leading a crusade to tear down the fucking Library of Congress out of pure egotism and spite.
