Female ISIS Supporter Arrested in NY Bomb Plot

I was just watching the FBI press conference about this vile plot, and I'm sure we'll have to hear a lot of  the usual downplaying and gaslighting by the liberal media and the Democrats, and even sympathy by some people, before this terrorist is put on trial. Hearing this news a month before the 25th anniversary of September 11 somehow doesn't surprise me in the least.

Who knows? Maybe she'll become the latest criminal celebrity, like Luigi!

"An ISIS-inspired militant was arrested for allegedly plotting a deadly attack on the New York State Capitol in Albany, the FBI said Thursday.

"Jessica Bowie, 35, pledged allegiance to the Islamist terror group and began planning the attack in July, according to a criminal complaint obtained by ABC News.

"She allegedly purchased bomb materials from a hardware store on Aug. 5 and planned the attack with the help of FBI informants for two weeks, the feds said.

"Bowie, who converted to Islam five years ago, also allegedly tracked the Capitol building for weeks, taking pictures from various vantage points including an “observation hall nearby,” according to the complaint.

"The FBI informants met Bowie Wednesday and gave her an inert explosive device and an inert handgun, along with instructions on how to detonate the bomb, the complaint said.

"She was soon arrested and appeared to offer a partial confession during her interview with FBI agents, according to the complaint.

“There’s no helping me, you guys know enough, there’s no helping me, I’m…going to prison for the rest of my life,” she allegedly said.

“Material support is up to 20 years in prison, I already Googled it before, I know I’m going to jail.”
