A Utah anti-deportation group reportedly endorsing violence against conservatives said Saturday that the FBI came looking for its members.

People of Provo Against ICE told the leftist outlet Fight Back! News that agents knocked on multiple doors to track down three advocates for undisclosed reasons on Friday. The organization made headlines days earlier over leaked audio, first reported by The Cougar Chronicle, in which members said they need to kill society’s wealthy “one percent,” President Donald Trump, other right-wing politicians, and their children.
