A pardoned Capitol rioter was arrested last weekend for allegedly threatening to kill Hakeem Jeffries.

A pardoned Capitol rioter was arrested last weekend for allegedly threatening to kill House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

According to a court filing by prosecutors in the New York state criminal case, Moynihan wrote, "Hakeem Jeffries makes a speech in a few days in NYC I cannot allow this terrorist to live."

Moynihan also allegedly stated: "Even if I am hated, he must be eliminated, I will kill him for the future," the filing said.

Moynihan faces a felony charge of making a terroristic threat, according to court filings shared by prosecutors.
