I met with Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi (IL-7) today. He said that the Capitol Police have notified him that his name was found on Vance Boelter’s hit list (he’s receiving extra security).

This changes the dynamics of the plot: Boelter wasn’t just focused on targets of convenience in and around his Minnesota home. Krishnamoorthi’s district is a six hour drive from Minneapolis. There are prospectively other targets around the country.
