(Columbus, OH) — The FBI says an ISIS operative in the U.S. plotted to assassinate former President George W. Bush.

An FBI search warrant says two confidential informants claim the alleged terrorist hoped to smuggle an attack team into the country over the Mexican border. Forbes Magazine reports the man has been in the country since 2020, living in Ohio, and was requesting asylum. The man has been arrested.

His plan, according to the warrant, was to get Mexican visitor visas for the ISIS operatives before getting them over the border.
