FBI arrests 17-year-old accused of plotting to assassinate a North Texas congressman
Self was a vocal opponent to the McKinney City Council’s decision to allow an Islamic group to build a mosque in McKinney. Early voting opened earlier this week.

The FBI arrested a 17-year-old McKinney boy accused of plotting to assassinate U.S. Rep. Keith Self (R-Texas) and carry out an ISIS-inspired terrorist attack in North Texas, WFAA reporter Jason Whitely reported Wednesday.
quote:
Federal agents arrested the teenager on October 5 after he obtained a firearm, Whitely reported. Investigators believed the teen planned to assassinate Self on October 17.
The teenager had already drawn the FBI’s attention, and investigators believed he had recently become radicalized through ISIS material he found online, Whitely said.
The suspect remained in federal custody in North Texas at the time of Whitely’s report. The reporter did not identify the teenager or specify the charges in his video account.
Whitely described the alleged attack as ISIS-inspired. His report did not establish whether the teenager belonged to the terrorist group or acted under its direction.
quote:
Self said confronting radical Islam carries personal risks that he is willing to accept. He pointed to the sacrifices of the nation’s founders and his own 25-year military career in explaining his response.
“This only strengthens my resolve. I will not back down,” Self wrote in his Facebook statement.
The congressman previously discussed Islam, Sharia law and extremism with host Sarah Zubiate-Bennett during a Let’s Talk Local interview. The Dallas Express covered his warning that Americans had grown too complacent about protecting their freedoms.

They can stop an assassination of a congressman but couldn’t stop an assassination of a president?

Odd way to phrase "islamist terrorist." Execute him. Deport the entire bloodline. Then deport every other muslim.
