The NYPD has confirmed that the device thrown at conservative protesters in New York City was not just a crude explosive—it was a shrapnel bomb packed with nuts, bolts, and screws designed to maximize carnage. Police say that had it detonated, the blast could have killed or maimed large numbers of people in the crowd. New York came frighteningly close to a mass-casualty attack.
Yesterday, white supremacist Jake Lang organized a protest outside Gracie Mansion rooted in bigotry and racism. Such hate has no place in New York City. It is an affront to our city’s values and the unity that defines who we are.
What followed was even more disturbing. Violence…

Mamdani’s statement gives the impression that “white supremacist Jake Lang” was responsible for the IED. He doesn’t mention the ISIS-influenced jihadis Emir Balat and Ibrahim Kayumi who actually threw it. He seems to want to mislead New Yorkers into thinking that “Islamophobes” were responsible for the bombing. The entire establishment media and much of the leftist political class is aiding him in this. (jihadwatch)
🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Police just found a THIRD "suspicious device" connected to one of the Muslim terrorists who tried bombing anti-Islam protestors in NYC

If you read nothing but Mamdani’s post, you'd conclude “white supremecists” & Lang attempted to use “explosive device.” In fact, Emir Balat & Ibrahim Kayumi were arrested for throwing an IED after yelling “Alluha Akbar.” Cold hard facts melt when meet warmth of collectivism. pic.twitter.com/MJJqTImXi9

This is the most dishonest reporting we’ve seen in a long time.
Two jihadis threw two IEDs into a crowd of anti-Zohran protesters.
On video.
Yet NBC reports these bombs were “found.”
And implies they belonged to the conservative protesters.
Truly a new low in journalism. https://t.co/TIr3oQZMz5
