Sworn affidavit from an FBI agent that these were the accusations left on their tip phone line.

This passes as news on NBC.

I wonder if the agent worked against Trump during the campaign or the last two years of Trump’s term.

This article says the same thing but omits the part about a message left on the FBI tip line and calls it a complaint. Which sounds much more legal.

It also mixes in a weapons charge with the story, so it makes the assassination thing sound like he is being arrested for that.

BTW, I'm not a supporter of militias (at this moment), making citizens arrests of by gunpoint of illegal immigrants, or felons being in possession of guns.

I just really like to see the truth in the news I read. Just the facts.

Lawyers please correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that the very definition of hearsay? No matter how much the FBI swears.

I have no opinion on Larry Hopkins and the firearm charges, other than wondering why they waited two years if he was so dangerous.

Militia leader hospitalized after being attacked in jail.

A political prisoner?

So, can someone tell me the legal definition of "migrants' rights", as stated in that news item?
