Utah man was shot and killed by FBI agents during a Wednesday morning raid linked to assassination threats against President Biden and other top Democrats, including Vice President Kamala Harris and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
The deadly shooting occurred in Provo around 6:15 a.m., when the feds tried to serve arrest and search warrants at a home, the FBI office in Salt Lake City told The Post in a statement.

“Another pre-dawn no-knock bust down the door and start shooting raid by our brave men from the Stasi.”
Roberston, in March:
“THE FBI TRIED TO INTERFERE WITH MY FREE SPEECH RIGHT IN MY DRIVEWAY. MY 45ACP WAS READY TO SMOKE ‘EM.”
Based on that, if were my job to investigate a man threatening to assassinate the president (and others,) I would not go out of my way to provide him time to brew a cup of coffee and grab a magazine or tow before knocking on his door.
Ah yes. Instead of coming for a man who’s most likely asleep and disoriented, let’s wait until he’s fully alert, probably carrying concealed, and in a grocery store full of women and children! That’s genius! You’re very smart.
Fair enough. Trump did say that following the school shooting in Florida. He says a lot of things. Has he ever implemented that as a policy? And why would you be so upset if he had? You’re defending the FBI shooting, without even knowing what happened. You appear to be fine with it. If it turns out that he didn’t open fire on the FBI like you assume, will you still defend the FBI? If so, then your “Not over my dead body” type proclamations are just pretense.
They should find it. They planted it there.
Looks like it was Truth Social that tipped off the Feds about this guy
“The complaint said Robertson came to the attention of federal agents in March after he posted a threat against Mr Bragg on Truth Social, the social network owned by Mr Trump. The company alerted the FBI’s National Threat Operations Center.”

What’s with the horseshit about a “75-year-old with a cane”?? The Post published photos of him in cammo, without a cane or any other sign of disability. He seemed to carry himself well.
Are you saying a 75-year-old man is incapable of wielding a sniper rifle??
You’re despicable.
Of course.
I just don’t care. Some nutcase affiliates with Trump and it’s like it’s an indictment of everybody.
Why not as that should happen...
My MOS is 11A.
/\
Obama era commie infiltrator then ?
Spit.
I believe your initial post is ignorant.
Really, really ignorant.
Your follow up comments are not much better.
I remember when that happened. We discussed it on here.
Correct. Even assuming this guy went postal and opened fire on the FBI, how many Trump supporters have done anything like that in the 8 years since Trump entered politics? I can’t think of any.
You can Google the video. Her exact words were, “Yes, I am angry. Yes, I am outraged. Yes, I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House.”
It was a direct threat in response to Trump being installed as President.
Funny, I don’t recall Madonna being arrested for attempting to overthrow the election.
“Let’s go ask them.”
That sounds like you have connections to the boots on the ground there. :)
My initial thoughts/questions: Why not arrest this senior citizen when he goes out to check the mail or pick up coffee from the local coffee shop? Can’t local authorities make the arrest? Did he have a medical condition, like dementia? All in all, very tragic.
Reasonable questions, but we probably will never know. The world is so divided (this thread is further proof) and everyone rushes to make political points or settle a grudge.
I am honestly surprised that more people have not snapped given all the turbulence.
“Did he have a medical condition, like dementia?”
That is absolutely right. He might have had a medication problem. The wrong here was a “No knock raid”.
