Trump DOJ charges ‘woke’ college student for faking racist bomb threats– www.lifesitenews.com

(LifeSiteNews) – The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced charges for a self-described, “100% woke” social justice activist it says is responsible for a series of hoax hate crimes and bomb threats at San Jose State University (SJSU).

According to the DOJ, since October 2024, SJSU campus police have documented more than 20 “hateful and threatening messages” left in campus restrooms, many of which detailing violent attacks supposedly to happen on specific dates.

Two such messages, discovered in November 2025, declared, “!WARNING! MASS BOMB NEXT WEEK” on a paper with drawings of swastikas and declarations such as “THIS IS A WHITE NATION” and “MAGA 2028,” indicating an intention to be perceived as the work of a Donald Trump supporter. Another message accompanying it declared, “Kill all Jews, Muslims, Chinks, and Mexicans.”

The message was found to bear the fingerprints of 30-year-old Ziheng “Tony” Fang, a SJSU grad student pursuing a master’s in data science. The College Fix reported that, rather than being MAGA, Fang identifies himself on various social media accounts as “100% woke,” a “social justice activist.” According to federal prosecutors, he “also includes a rainbow flag in his profile on Threads” and “has posted and/or shared content expressing anti-ICE, pro-immigration, anti-MAGA, and pro-Palestine views.”

Fang is being charged “with a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1038(a)(1) – False Information and Hoaxes,” which is punishable by fines and/or up to five years in jail, unless serious bodily injury results, in which case a violator would face up to 20 years. No such injury is alleged in this case; students and staff were notified of individual threats, and professors decided whether to cancel classes or hold them virtually on a case-by-case basis.
