"U.S. Attorney Craig Missakian stated that if evidence shows Moreno-Gama attempted to execute the attacks to sway public policy, it could be treated as an act of domestic terrorism."
"Moreno-Gama was arrested after allegedly throwing an improvised explosive at Altman's residence and attempting to break the glass doors of OpenAI's headquarters."
"Missakian emphasized that while disagreement and debate are part of American life, any attempt to change how Americans live through fear or violence will not be tolerated."
"The suspect was carrying incendiary devices, a jug of kerosene, a lighter, and a manifesto titled 'Your Last Warning' at the time of his arrest."
