ISIS Bomb Plot Foiled as FBI Warns of Threats Ahead of 9/11

from The Ben Ferguson Podcast · host iHeartPodcasts

In this episode of the Ben Ferguson Show podcast Ben discusses the FBI’s arrest of Jessica Bowie, the details laid out by federal prosecutors, and what they argue the case reveals about ongoing terrorism threats facing the United States. They also examine broader concerns about border security and national preparedness ahead of major national events. The conversation then turns to the sharp decline in Nike’s market value, with Cruz and Ferguson arguing that corporate political activism has damaged the company’s relationship with consumers. They also cover a new EPA emergency fuel waiver intended to increase gasoline supply and lower prices, along with reports that former Congressman Eric Swalwell’s electronic devices were seized by the FBI as part of a federal investigation. The FBI says it has disrupted an alleged ISIS-inspired terror plot targeting the New York State Capitol in Albany. Federal authorities accuse a New York woman of pledging allegiance to ISIS, planning an explosive attack on lawmakers, and conducting surveillance of the Capitol before her arrest. The case comes just weeks before the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, raising renewed concerns about online radicalization, domestic security threats, and the ability of law enforcement agencies to prevent violence before it occurs.  Topics Covered: FBI arrest of Jessica Bowie in an alleged ISIS-linked terror plot Planned attack targeting the New York State Capitol and state lawmakers Terrorism concerns ahead of the 25th anniversary of September 11 Nike’s market value decline and debate over corporate activism EPA emergency fuel waiver aimed at increasing gasoline supply FBI seizure of Eric Swalwell’s electronic devices amid federal investigation Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
