Twins face federal charges including conspiracy and weapons offenses after threatening to shoot ICE officers and harm DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin online.

- DHS says agents have seen an uptick in attacks in recent months, and Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons cited an 8,000% increase in death threats recently amid protests.
