There were multiple weapons and the materials to make some kind of explosive device akin to a Molotov cocktail, but it had not been assembled, according [sic] law enforcement officials familiar with the details. [More]
What kinds of “weapons”?
Everyone realizes if they have a gas can in the garage, an empty bottle, and a rag that they have bomb-making materials according to this “standard”?
This “story” sure is long on innuendo to smear all election integrity-doubting “insurrectionists” as violent nutjobs and short on substantiation.
If I didn’t know better, I’d think this was just another instance of low-hanging fruit federal kabuki theater for headlines.

Don’t even need a gas can. By that logic, if you’re driving around and have an empty glass bottle, a rag, and a siphon tube (to pull gas from your vehicle), you have all the makings.
How many of us have most of those things (maybe not the glass bottle) in an emergency/breakdown kit?
Your first link is missing. 😁
