    Attorney General Pam Bondi on Friday announced the arrest of a man accused of threatening conservative commentator Benny Johnson in a copycat plot reportedly inspired by the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.Authorities arrested George Isabel Jr for threatening Benny Johnson’s children shortly after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, Attorney General Pam Bondi said. Isabel has been charged in federal court with mailing threatening communications.“The individual who wrote me described why he wanted me dead: I was a white, cis, Christian Trump supporter,” Johnson said, speaking alongside Bondi. “They described in great detail how I would be killed in an open field just like Charlie. How much blood would come out of my head and neck when it would come off,” he added. Johnson, a friend of Kirk, said he wants “to be able to debate like Charlie did” without fearing assassination and urged Democrats to “disavow” political violence.Bondi stated that authorities arrested Isbell in connection with the threatening letter, which she described as “horrific.”“We cannot allow this political violence to continue any longer,” Bondi said. “This arrest will serve as a reminder to many — do not do this, we will find you.”The attorney general noted that similar cases are occurring nationwide and said the Justice Department is taking action against those sending threatening communications.“I want peace in my nation, I love this country. I want to be able to raise my family in peace — that is our birthright. But you cannot make peace with evil as a Christian, you cannot unite with people who want you dead,” Johnson said on Friday. “We have open cases other open cases all over this country and we’re going to find you,” Bondi added.The arrest comes as the Trump administration intensifies efforts to combat political violence, targeting groups such as the far-left “Antifa” movement.Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on Wednesday described Antifa as “just as sophisticated” as Hamas, ISIS, and MS-13. Last month, Trump designated the group as a domestic terrorist organization following Kirk’s death.Kirk, 31, was fatally shot on Sept. 10 while speaking to students during his “American Comeback” tour at Utah Valley University.The alleged shooter, Tyler Robinson, was “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology,” according to Utah Gov. Spencer Cox and other investigators.
