Thompson tweeted about Jewish center bomb threats
Thompson condemned anti-Semitic acts that have played out across the country in recent months. He tweeted “the hatred of Jews goes across all demos” before accusing his ex-girlfriend of being anti-Semitic.
He was fired from his journalism job
Thompson used to work as a staff reporter for The Intercept before the news organization fired him last January for fabricating sources and quotes in stories. The Intercept confirmed Thompson’s former employment in a statement Friday that said the staff was “horrified to learn” about his arrest. “These actions are heinous and should be fully investigated and prosecuted,” the statement said. The Intercept said Thompson was an employee from November 2014 to January 2016.
He has said he is against President Trump and white people
Thompson has tweeted his opposition to President Donald Trump several times. He has also ranted about white people on his Twitter account, calling them “trash.” The ADL said Thompson last year announced plans to run for mayor of St. Louis, his hometown, to “fight back against Trumpian fascism.” The civil rights group, which has been monitoring Thompson, said the suspect “became more hostile to whites in general” after he was axed from The Intercept. Thompson used to live in New York City, where he and his roommate apparently hosted a TV show and discussed issues like bigotry, according to the ADL.

He hasn't been a journalist for over a year. Judging from his tweets, he was just slowly going nuts - rants about whites, his ex, Trump, Obama, Clinton, muslims, etc. He is also not the main suspect in the majority of threats, but was thought to be taking advantage of the media coverage of such threats to exact some kind of revenge on his ex.
