GOP Lawmaker Suggests the Boston Marathon Bombing Was an Inside Job
This is Rep. Stella Tremblay. She is a Republican elected to New Hampshire's House of Representatives and she believes the government planned the bombing at the Boston Marathon last week that killed three people and injured more than 150 others.
Tremblay posted on Glenn Beck's Facebook wall last week, saying that the search for the suspects was going exactly as he'd suggested it would. She then goes on to suggest that the U.S. government planned to whole thing, but for what reason she does not specify. The message was posted Friday morning, before Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was arrested, for some context.
Just as you said would happen. Top Down, Bottom UP. The Boston Marathon was a Black Ops "terrorist" attack. One suspect killed, the other one will be too before they even have a chance to speak. Drones and now "terrorist" attacks by our own Government. Sad day, but a "wake up" to all of us. First there was a "suspect" then there wasnt. Infowars broke the story and they knew they had been "found out".
In her post, Tremblay also posted a link to a video of another radio host, Alex Jones, explaining why he believes the government is behind last week's attack.
Here is where things get, incestuous, one might say. In addition to hosting a radio show, Jones also runs the site Infowars, which reportedly was a favorite of deceased suspect and supposed ringleader Tamerlan Tsarnaev.
Tremblay has previously made headlines for claiming that President Woodrow Wilson was sympathetic to Adolf Hitler's cause, as well as forwarding a doctored video that claims to show President Barack Obama admitting he was not born in the United States to other New Hampshire House members.
Speaking with the Foster's Daily Democrat Tuesday, Tremblay confirmed her belief that the Boston Marathon bombing was a government plot, saying: "It was one of my constituents that sent me an email, and it went to a site where a, I think it was a major retired marine was speaking, and then he said, 'Please go to Infowars,' and they had pictures of, what is it, black ops? With black backpacks. They show them at the scene, so they knew something was going on."
Not surprisingly, New Hampshire's Democratic Party is requesting the state's Republican Party condemn Tremblay's accusations.
"Even for the New Hampshire Republican Party, which has become synonymous with the tea party and radical extremism, Representative Tremblay's claims are a new low," state Democratic Party spokesman Harrell Kirstein said in a statement. "She is an embarrassment to the New Hampshire House of Representatives, to her constituents, and to the entire state of New Hampshire."
Meanwhile, a lawyer representing Katherine Russell, the widow of suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev, urged in a news conference Tuesday that she had no idea what her husband was planning. Amato DeLuca also told reporters that Russell has spoken to law enforcement officials and is cooperating with their investigation, flatly stating: "It is pretty evident that she didn't know anything."
DeLuca also said Russell, who has a 2-year-old daughter with the elder Tsarnaev, is shocked that her husband would do such a thing.
"She cries a lot," DeLuca said. "She can't go anywhere. She can't work."
