Matthew Livelsberger, a 37-year-old Green Beret from Colorado Springs, Colorado, also wrote in notes he left on his cellphone that he needed to “cleanse” his mind “of the brothers I’ve lost and relieve myself of the burden of the lives I took.” Livelsberger served in the Army since 2006 and deployed twice to Afghanistan.

“This was not a terrorist attack, it was a wake up call. Americans only pay attention to spectacles and violence. What better way to get my point across than a stunt with fireworks and explosives,” Livelsberger wrote in one letter found by authorities and released Friday.

    The other replies were about going at all, but that’s not the key here

    She said he’d lose clearance if he went, that means the things he’d say were psychotic and he knew it

    His wife allegedly shared a trump tweet and said she read them to get the desire to kill people, that kind of statement to a therapist will get your clearances revoked fast

    So the guy was a massive shitstain, knew it, and then offed himself pathetically. AKA your standard trump supporter

      Yeah, his full suicide letter came out, and it looks like he was still fully on board with Trump and Elon. Doesn’t make sense why he’d blow up a cybertruck in front of a Trump building, but yeah. Lots of railing against the 1% while supporting a whole bunch of billionaires.
