    Ian Rogers and Jarrod Copeland were allegedly inspired by the unfounded belief that the 2020 election was stolen from former President Donald Trump, the court documents say. When investigators searched Rogers' house in January, he allegedly had five pipe bombs, which court documents say were live. They also allegedly seized between 45 and 50 firearms.
    ...
    Shortly after Rogers was arrested in January, court documents say that Copeland contacted a militia group that Rogers allegedly belonged to, and the group instructed Copeland to destroy his phone. In text messages obtained by investigators and included in the federal indictment, Rogers and Copeland allegedly laid out their plan to bomb the building.
    ...
    According to the complaint, investigators found a Three Percenters sticker on Rogers' truck. The FBI has said the Three Percenters is a "radical militia group" with ties to the Capitol siege. The special agent who authored the complaint wrote that he believes the messages show an intent to cause violence to prevent President Joe Biden from assuming office.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

" No - What is believed to be misinformation one day may someday be recognized as the truth and vice versa. [...] Parsing the difference between what is deliberate false information intended to harm or disrupt (i.e. false police report) versus fringe information or genuine skepticism…I am not comfortable with a world where that is 'handled' for me."
