USA Today Blames Libs of TikTok Operator for Bomb Threat Hoax in Maine Capitol

USA Today published an article blaming Chaya Raichik, operator of the anti-woke X account Libs of TikTok, for the bomb threat hoax perpetrated against the Maine State House on Friday morning.

“The legislators targeted by the threats, have also been publicized by the right-wing social media account Libs of TikTok. That influencer โ€“ as USA TODAY first reported โ€“ has tweeted about schools, hospitals and other public institutions that quickly became targets of bomb and death threats dozens of times in recent months,” said USA Today.

The bomb threats, which targeted the Maine State House, the Maine Democrat Party headquarters in Augusta, Sen. Donna Bailey (D-York), and Rep. Anne Perry (D-Calais), were determined to be hoaxes after police investigated the situation.

According to USA today, the threats were made in response to legislation proposed by Rep. Perry, and Sen. Bailey which would allow “transgender trafficking,” essentially legalizing the kidnapping of children from parents who will not allow transgender procedures, and allowing Maine doctors to perform procedures on those children without parental consent.

The bill, which has been the subject of public outrage, drew the attention of Raichik, who publicized it over her Libs of TikTok account.

USA Today blamed Raichik, and the publicity she brought to the bill, for the bomb threat.

“Good afternoon, the Left is blaming me for another b*mb threat today. This time In Maine. Howโ€™s your day going,” said Raichik on X.

This is not the first time that USA Today has attempted to blame Raichik for crimes. The outlet has blamed her for various threats made against numerous far-left activists and institutions on which she had reported.

USA Today did not blame Richik alone for the threats, it also accused Former President Donald Trump, as well as religious Americans in general, citing “Christian Nationalism” as a motivation for the crimes.

For those of you who donโ€™t know LOTT finds clips produced by and starring liberals and then mainstream for the enjoyment and shock of normal people. I think itโ€™s meant to embarrass the producers by showing just how delusional they have become. Never the less, if there is blowback from these videos its 100% the producers fault not the reporter.

Christians donโ€™t have a nation. How can they be nationalists? Besides, Christians worship illigitimate israel and the jew mass murderers. Christians are straight up cucks worshipping foreigners.

Appears to me the USA Today author is trying their best to blame someone…other than the deranged elected reps. who brought this legislation forward.
