Extremism experts warn of echoes of Jan. 6 in rightist response to FBI Mar-a-Lago raid
Days before he was killed by police after allegedly firing a nail gun into an FBI field office in Cincinnati, the man whom officials have identified as Ricky Walter Shiffer appears to have posted online about wanting to kill FBI agents after the search at former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate.
Screenshots taken from Trump’s social media platform, Truth Social, show that an account using Shiffer’s name, which appears to have been removed, posted a “call to arms” on Tuesday morning, hours after Trump confirmed the raid had taken place at his Florida residence a day earlier.
“We must not tolerate this one,” read one of the posts, which urged others to “be ready for combat” and to “respond with force.
“Kill the F.B.I. on sight,” the post said.
