When we assess an event for domestic terrorism nexus, it has to be tied to an ideology.

It's the use of force or violence in the furtherance of a political social ideology or event.

We haven't tied to that yet.

So you're not going to have all the protections that working people need. And then on top of that, you may be looking at a government shutdown in the midst of the most difficult moment in modern American history.

It is insane. It is really insane.

Hey, everybody.

Welcome to the Munkerick podcast.

I'm Jared Yates Sexton.

Here, as always with Nick Housselman.

For the last episode of the Muckrake podcast of 2020, say goodbye to this just absolute bullshit year.

Let us hope, keep going. I love it.

Let us hope that 2021 will be better, kinder, healthier, saner,

We're going to talk about the January 6th looming situation. I don't even

know what to call it. Before we do that, however, we do have to talk about the bombing in Nashville

at 6.30 a.m. Christmas morning. We have found a person of interest. It seems like this is the person who perished

with the bombing. Sixty-three-year-old Anthony Warner of Tennessee. A really weird situation that

apparently injured three people, but a massive RV bomb was set off outside, I think, notably,

of an AT&T building that disrupted telecommunications for a while.

Police arrived. There was a weird mechanical computer voice telling people to steer clear,

interspersed with the music, the song Downtown by Petula Clark in 1964 song.

A really weird, bizarre thing.
