Federal authorities in Seattle on Monday charged two women with a terrorist attack on train tracks, suggesting they were working with an anarchist community to stand in solidarity with a Native American tribe to oppose the construction of a natural gas pipeline across the Canadian province of British Columbia by trying to derail trains in Washington state.

 

Frances Brooks, 27, and Ellen Brennan Reiche, 23, were arrested Saturday night in Bellingham, located in Whatcom County, which borders Canada, as they allegedly placed “shunts” on Burlington Northern Santa Fe tracks, according to a complaint filed by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Western District of Washington Monday.

According to its website, It's Going Down is a digital community center for anarchist, anti-fascist, autonomous anti-capitalist and anti-colonial movements. Its statement said railroad blockades were meant to help the Wet’suwet’en Nation in their fight against “colonial invasion” and that the U.S. and Canadian governments must stop “violently supporting those members of the 1% who are stealing our resources and condemning our children to a world rendered uninhabitable by climate change.”

They've been doing this for almost a year now according to the ever useful DOJ.. except. 

 

Which puts in perspective any agency that plays down the threat of these people or takes years to act. 

 

Bonus: Media hacks I stumbled onto:

 

 

When Pizzagate conspiracy theorists wind up more reputable on this reporting than the MSM, you know your media sucks (and even supports domestic terrorism):

I guess creating or attempting to create an environmental disaster is entirely justified in some eyes.  I hope these two get the maximum sentence.
