Ridiculous, it is very clear who this terrorist was targeting. A group of republican soft targets (list of names included) at a low security location.
Right. These were the Republicans he specifically wanted to kill:

Their name was the House Freedom Caucus

That sounds like a concrete plan to me. Was it an elaborate plan? No.
Just because it wasn't sophisticated and written down step by step and was executed exactly as set forth doesn't mean it wasn't a plan. Does his plan have to go exactly as he desires? He targeted Republicans and was clearly scouting out the best means to get them through various methods like the Republican Convention, the GOP baseball practice, other Republican events, etc.

Which is a reasonable conclusion, but the FBI has to work off more concrete evidence

Hodgkinson had a piece of paper with the names of six members of Congress written on it, Slater said, but the note lacked any further context and there was no evidence from his computer, phone or other belongings that indicated he planned to target those officials.

Don't all of you walk around with a list of Congressmen from a specific party that you are vocally against?
I know I do.
I know I do.

This is where people with more than half a brain put the puzzle together.

I'm quite confident the FBI did internally
I'm not sure how much I want the FBI speculating though

Base on the circumstantial evidence outline in the link I provided in the OP.

They work off of all evidence (or at least they should).
Based on the evidence the prep was clearly targeting Republicans. And to conclude: “painted a picture of a down-on-his-luck man with few future prospects.” is insane.

Yeah. The FBI agrees with you.

That was the AP spin. That is not a FBI quote.

Like what, a smoking gun in someone's hand? The FBI shite in their own hand concerning evidence when I listened to Comey for twelve minutes making a concrete case against Clinton only to exonerate her with his last minute WTF moment.

What the ever living fart is this? Are these the folks trusted with the highest level of security in our country?
And to top it off, these same incompetent folks are the ones trying to trash the President. Oivay

I think people on here are trying to read something that isn't there. Taking pictures of the scenes was not surveillance of the targets themselves, and I definitely can see how there wasn't a "concrete plan" given how much of a dip shite the guy was.
Well I guess I see your point. If Bill Clinton can argue the meaning of "is" then one can argue the meaning of "concrete" if they wish. But, please do not expect to be taken seriously.
