New York City Bomb Plot, Pennsylvania Teenagers Arrested
Two teenagers from Bucks County, Pennsylvania, were arrested near Gracie Mansion in New York City for allegedly planning an ISIS-inspired bombing. Investigators discovered a storage unit containing explosive residue and a notebook detailing "soft targets" like shopping centers.
The explosive used in the NYC plot, TATP (triacetone triperoxide), is known as the "Mother of Satan" due to its high instability. The hosts highlight how easily tutorials for creating this substance from household chemicals like acetone and hydrogen peroxide can be found on platforms like YouTube and Facebook.
Thwarted Paris Terror Plot and "Unprecedented" Arsenals
French authorities announced they thwarted an "imminent" terror plot by Reda Criquet, discovering what they called an "unprecedented" arsenal. The hosts mock the use of the word "unprecedented" to describe a cache consisting of five AK-47s and seven handguns, arguing the media is exaggerating the scale of the discovery.
The hosts discuss TATP, an explosive nicknamed "Mother of Satan," used in suicide vests. They also investigate reports that Facebook is deleting posts containing the term "cry bully," a word used to describe people who use victimhood to bully others.
