Others were piecing it together, though. As early as Sept 22 —a day after Devine’s 1st column published— NBCNews’s Ryan Reilly deduced that the arrested individual was #TylerBensch.
In announcing that arrest, the #DOJ described Bensch as a “self-identified #militia member” whose group “adheres to the ideology of the ‘Three Percenters.'” The #ThreePercenters view the govt as having tyrannical tendencies &believes it must be kept in check by #armed groups. Canada has labeled it a #terrorist group.
