The suspect behind two separate arson attacks in New Mexico has been revealed as an Antifa supporter with a documented history of radical far-left activism. Federal authorities identified 40-year-old Jamison Wagner as the man responsible for firebombing a Tesla dealership in Albuquerque on February 9 and setting fire to the New Mexico Republican Party headquarters on March 30.

According to a Department of Justice press release, Wagner used gasoline and homemade incendiary devices to carry out both attacks. One Tesla Model Y vehicle was severely damaged, and a second sustained lighter damage during the dealership fire. The fire was ruled incendiary—intentionally set with criminal intent.

Attorney General Pam Bondi issued a strong warning following Wagner’s arrest: “Let this be the final lesson to those taking part in this ongoing wave of political violence. We will arrest you, we will prosecute you, and we will not negotiate. Crimes have consequences.”

The investigation revealed that Wagner vandalized both properties with disturbing, anti-American graffiti. At the Tesla dealership, walls and vehicles were tagged with phrases like “Die Elon,” “Tesla Nazi Inc,” and “Die Tesla Nazi.” The GOP headquarters entryway was completely destroyed, and the words “ICE=KKK” were spray-painted on the building.

Federal investigators tied the two attacks together based on several identical elements. Both arsons occurred at night, on weekends. Wagner parked outside the immediate area, used red spray paint for his graffiti, and transported gasoline in repurposed food jars. After executing a search warrant at Wagner’s home, agents uncovered a cache of damning evidence.

Among the materials seized were eight fully assembled incendiary devices, black and red spray paint cans, Styrofoam egg cartons matching debris found at the fire scenes, additional bomb-making supplies, and ignitable liquids that tested consistent with the fuel used at both crime scenes. A cardboard stencil reading “ICE=KKK” was also recovered in Wagner’s garage, matching the graffiti left at the GOP office.

Wagner’s social media presence offered even more insight into his extremist views. Posts on his Facebook page show support for Black Lives Matter, Antifa, and leftist gender ideology. He shared content from a page titled “Nonbinary Memes & More” with slogans like “No gender, only chaos,” and endorsed posts labeling the Republican Party as “white supremacist fascism.”

The New York Post described Wagner as “lipstick-wearing,” while Wired reported that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives conducted forensic tests on fire debris, fingerprints, and possible DNA, although no final lab results were cited in the arrest warrant.

Wagner is also listed as a member of “500 Queer Scientists,” a group promoting LGBTQ+ visibility in STEM fields. His biography claims he is a “queer” electrical engineer. This profile has raised additional concerns about the increasing overlap between militant identity politics and acts of political violence.

The GOP headquarters attack is not being treated as a hate crime by the media or many in Washington, despite its clearly ideological nature. If the roles had been reversed—if a conservative had firebombed a DNC office—there would be wall-to-wall coverage and national outrage. Instead, silence dominates the response to a violent act aimed directly at Republican leadership.

The facts are indisputable: a radical Antifa-aligned activist attempted to terrorize conservatives through calculated, politically motivated arson. The weaponization of fringe ideology has now escalated from online vitriol to real-world violence.

While the Biden-era Justice Department has often dragged its feet on left-wing extremism, the Trump administration’s law-and-order leadership under Attorney General Bondi is signaling that these attacks will not be ignored. Republicans are under siege—and it’s time to call this what it is: domestic terrorism aimed at silencing the Right.

This is the moment to stand firm. Conservatives must demand equal justice under the law, protect their institutions, and reject the narrative that far-left violence is ever justified or tolerable.
