Evidently the plan was to blow up several sites on New Year's Eve. They were caught while testing their stuff:

Washington — Federal law enforcement officials said Monday that four members of a far-left anti-government group have been arrested and face charges for allegedly planning a series of bomb attacks across Southern California on New Year's Eve.

Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote on X that the Justice Department and FBI "prevented what would have been a massive and horrific terror plot in the Central District of California," which encompasses Los Angeles and Orange County.

FBI Director Kash Patel said that the four people who face charges were members of a group known as the Turtle Island Liberation Front. Bondi described the Turtle Island Liberation Front as a "far-left, pro-Palestine, anti-government, and anti-capitalist group."

Bill Essayli, who leads the U.S. Attorney's Office in Los Angeles, said at a press conference that the four individuals were arrested Friday in San Bernardino County, where they planned to construct and detonate test explosive devices in the desert. He said the suspects allegedly crafted a "detailed, coordinated plot" to bomb "multiple" U.S. companies on New Year's Eve, with the devices exploding at midnight. Essayli did not name the companies but said they were "logistics centers."

"This case is another reminder about the dangers that radicalized antifa-like groups pose to people, public safety and the rule of law," he said.

Turns out that the City Of Seattle paid some folks close to the movement for an article!

The United States of America is a settler colonial state which embraced erasing the people who inhabited the pre-colonized land through violent resource extraction, environmental desecration, displacement, and genocide. The U.S. accomplished this in-part through widespread dehumanization. Indigenous people have been called wolves, animals, and savages while white settlers were told the “New World” was a Promised Land and settling it was their divine right according to Manifest Destiny. This dehumanization resulted in 56 million Indigenous people being murdered by the U.S. government and settlers in the first 100 years of colonization.

This has been followed by denial and a rewriting of history—but the tide has been turning as people gain access to information they didn’t have before. “Land Back” has begun to inspire people to dream of a truly anticolonial, unapologetically Native vision for the future. Each perspective has awakened personal and collective movements for liberation.
