WASHINGTON — A Colorado man has been arrested by the FBI and charged with making threats against elections officials, a judge, and federal law enforcement agents.
Teak Brockbank, a 45-year-old from Cortez, Colorado, was arrested on Friday and charged with transmitting interstate threats and will make his first court appearance on Monday.
A redacted affidavit from an FBI special agent indicated that they had been investigating threats made on two right-wing social media websites — Rumble and Gab — and determined that Brockbank went by the username "Teakty4u" and made threats against numerous officials. Brockbank, federal prosecutors wrote, “also has a lengthy history of illegally possessing firearms,” and the FBI affidavit references slogans associated with the fringe QAnon movement. The names of Brockbank's targets were sealed at the request of the government.

I was also arrested in June. I have active warrants as I am a fleeing fugitive yet was released in 4 hours. I'll be celebrating 9/11 as that is my court date and I'll be, as usual, a no show.
Oh...
