Former Obama Intelligence Official Bails Out Antifa Lawyer Who Threw Firebomb Into Police Car, Distributed Incendiary Devices to Other Terrorists

Hey, this would be a great time to hear from the corporate-funded GOPe fake conservative media about how all of the Deplorable Conserrvative scaremongering over the alleged radicalism of Obama was just hysterics due to racism.

A former Obama administration intelligence official who worked in both the Departments of State and Defense has guaranteed bail for a human rights lawyer accused of firebombing a police vehicle in New York City.

The former official, Salmah Rizvi, told a judge the alleged firebomber is her "best friend." Rizvi, now an attorney at the D.C.-based law firm Ropes & Gray, helped secure the release of fellow lawyer Urooj Rahman by agreeing to be a suretor for her bail. That means Rizvi is liable for the full cost of the $250,000 bail if Rahman fails to obey the court's orders.

Rahman was released to home confinement over the objections of government attorneys after her arrest on Saturday for throwing a lit Molotov cocktail through the window of an NYPD vehicle. Evidence presented by prosecutors included images of Rahman holding a Molotov cocktail in the passenger seat of a van that was later found to be full of the necessary materials for making the explosive devices.

U.S. District Judge Margo Brodie acknowledged the strong evidence against Rahman, who was also accused of distributing the incendiary devices to other rioters, but agreed to grant her bail due to the "willingness of family and friends to sign on as suretors," according to a report from Law360.

Here is a story about the two leftwing, fully credentialed lawyers, proud avatars of the Professional Managerial Class, who are domestic terrorists.

Quick, Rich Lowry! Quick, Dan McLaughlin!

Tell me which of our Inviolable Civic Norms we're supposed to be maintaing when Obama officials are bailing out their "Best Friend" antifa terrorist friends.

You guys assured us that Norms were the most important thing.

So: Start lecturing us about Norms, assholes.

Go back to vouching for the moderation and integrity of your Media-Government Complex pals.

Hey, Rich -- the recent convert to "Nationalism." And surely for reasons of deep moral and intellectual conviction, not to adapt his grift to changing times.

Wouldn't this be a great time for you to re-deplatform the Proud Boys?

Gotta keep those Norms intact. Gotta preserve the system for people like Obama's antifa crew.
