FWIW, FBI also says he was a veteran and didn't act alone, looking for 4 others. Online profile shows some type of IT specialist.

Local news is reporting FBI and ATF at his listed address.
Sources confirm to News5 driver of the Cybertruck in Las Vegas explosion lived in Colorado Springs
Given that it's not a very common name, I feel pretty confident in saying the LinkedIn and perp are one and the same.

Did it mention if he was from Florida? Cause I think I might know who this guy is…
I'm going to be a little upset if a former SF guy could only muster a car bomb made of fireworks and gas cans...
Ok, here me out. This isn't an attack on the "left".
Trump is about to take office, after the establishment and media have been calling him a threat to democracy. How long was it going to take before Democrat supporting Veterans and currently serving members, took this as a legitimate threat? And thinking they were upholding their oath by starting an insurgency? Not saying this is the case but something is not adding up.

I don't think your general idea is off base, but I would say it might not be applicable in this case.
Maybe I'm giving the guy to much credit, but I'd expect a more developed/targeted approach given the background.
This feels like something that air force dude would have done in protest of Israel.
That explains why I was pulled over and my car searched coming on to base today.
Well played, Marine, well played.

This is what I’ve been thinking. Given his background this doesn’t seem like the most professional of plans.
Oh I agree completely that this guy definitely had the capacity to level that building. I've seen speculation that due to his knowledge base, he designed the blast to reduce casualties but make a statement. Or he seriously miscalculated the cybertrucks ability to direct the blast vertical.
