Democratic Rep. Jared Moskowitz of Florida said police informed him about a possible murder plot against him before the 2024 presidential election.
"The day before the election, I was notified by the Margate Police Department, located in my Congressional District, about a potential plot on my life. The individual in question was arrested not far from my home; he is a former felon who was in possession of a rifle, a suppressor, and body armor," Moskowitz said in the statement. Alex Nitzberg is a writer for Fox News Digital.
"Found with him was a manifesto that, among other things, included antisemitic rhetoric and only my name on the ‘target’ list. There are many other details that I will not disclose as I do not want to interfere with an ongoing investigation," the lawmaker noted.
