A 40-year-old New Mexico [for any college students reading this, New Mexico is a U.S. state; not a place in Mexico] man has been charged over arson attacks that targeted the headquarters of the Republican Party and a Tesla showroom in Albuquerque, the Justice Department announced.
The feds nabbed 40-year-old Jamison Wagner, a guy they say went full pyro on two Teslas and the GOP headquarters in Albuquerque. The DOJ dropped the hammer Monday, announcing Wagner’s arrest by the FBI for the fiery attacks that left a trail of scorched metal and shattered windows.
Attorney General Pam Bondi’s not messing around—she’s gunning for 40 years behind bars if Wagner’s convicted.
Wagner’s staring down two counts of torching property with fire or explosives. No slaps on the wrist here.

“Let this be the final lesson to those taking part in this ongoing wave of political violence,” Bondi said, her words sharp as barbed wire. “We will arrest you, we will prosecute you, and we will not negotiate. Crimes have consequences.”
The DOJ pieced it together like a grim puzzle—evidence at the scenes and surveillance footage pointed straight to Wagner, and avid Trump/GOP hater.
First up was February 9. Two Teslas parked outside the Albuquerque Tesla Showroom got hit with a homemade firebomb. One had a glass container stuffed with napalm material inside. The showroom and nearby cars got tagged with spray paint—swastikas, “Die Elon,” “Tesla Nazi Inc,” and “Die Tesla Nazi” scrawled like a manifesto gone wrong.

Leftists are such lovely people, right?
Then, on March 30, the New Mexico GOP headquarters took a hit. Firebombed. Major damage. “ICE = KKK” was sprayed across the building, a calling card of chaos.
Investigators connected the dots fast. Wagner’s Hyundai Accent was spotted peeling out after the GOP bombing. His mug matched the suspect in the surveillance tapes. When the FBI kicked in his door, they hit the jackpot: materials for firebombs, spray paint matching both crime scenes, an “ICE=KKK” stencil, and eight suspected incendiary devices ready to roll.

Boom badahbing!
“This arrest is part of the FBI’s aggressive efforts to investigate and hold accountable those who have targeted Tesla facilities in various states across the country,” FBI Director Kash Patel said, doubling down.

“Under Attorney General Bondi’s leadership, we will continue to locate and arrest those responsible for these acts of domestic terrorism, and the FBI will work with partners at the Department of Justice to ensure such lawbreakers face justice.”
