A utah man was shot and killed earlier this morning during an fbi raid on his home. Cbss ed okeefe reports the agents were attempting to serve an Arrest Warrant after the man allegedly threatened to kill President Biden, his family, and several others, including former president obama. Reporter according to court filings, just three days ago, Craig Robertson posted that hed heard President Biden was coming to utah. Robertson made a threat, saying he would be cleaning the dust off the m24 sniper rifle. A. T. Smith is a former secret Service Deputy director and cbs news consultant. I think this is about as extreme as it getsts. Repeporter vidideo at the ei raid. Thatat began Thihis Morning G at one popoint was s seen. One neighbhbor said ththey heard gunshohots. Early wednesday, sources tell cbs news an fbi team tried to Arrest Robertson in his provo, utah, home, less than an hours drive from where the president is traveling tonight. Some kind of confrontation ensued, and robertson died in a shooting. The fbi had been investigating robertson for five months for allegedly making threats against other officials. Among them, Manhattan District Attorney alvin bragg, new York Attorney general letitia james, and attorney general merrick garland. All of them overseeing criminal or civil proceedings against former president donald trump. In march, using truth social, a platform favored by trump, robertson said he would be traveling to new york to fulfill his dream of killing bragg. The criminal complaint includes allegations of more than two dozen other threats against Vice President harris, prosecutors, and fbi agents. There is a line to be crossed, and clearly this individual crossed that line. Reporter neighbors tell Cbs News Robertson was active in his church, prosecond amendment, and someone known to have an arsenal of weapons in his home. A white house official says the president was briefed on the case this morning shortly after the shoot out. The Secret Service referred all questions on the case to the fbi. Major .

Authorities are going door to door to check on residents, but so far, no injuries have been reported. Now to the january 6th investigation. Tonight, we are learning new details about a Trump Campaign memo that lays out a postelection plot to use fake electors to block thenpresident elect joe biden from taking office. Cbss robert costa also reports the investigation now includes former President Trumps social media account. Reporter Court Documents tonight reveal the Special Counsel obtained a Search Warrant for former president Donald Trumps twitter account, seeking more information as it continues to investigate the attempt to overthrow the 2020 election. Trump responded immediately on social media, calling the Search Warrant a major hit on my civil rights. As prosecutors continue to build their case, we are learning new details about the justice departments probe into trumps conduct in and around january 6th. A memo authored by trump lawyer Ken Chesebro Written In 2020 and first reported by the New York Times outlines a plot to encourage the creation of false slates of trump electors, in battleground states where trump lost. The idea was to compel congress to consider those false slates on january 6th, when it certified the election. In the memo, chesebro writes that letting matters play out this way would enable trump to deprive biden of electoral votes, but he also acknowledged the proposal as a bold, controversial strategy that would likely be rejected by the supreme court. Chesebro did not respond to requests for comment. Chesebro was the architect of a strategy to just keep biden from getting to the magic number of 270, doing something that he knew was almlmost certainly unlawful to buy time. Reporter but the effort fell short of pushing thenVice President mike pence to disavow certifying the 2020 election. [gavel sounds] pence has since become a key witness in the investigation. President trump asked me to put him over the constitution, but i chose the constitution. Reporter cbs news has learned chesebro is also likely one of the coconspirators in the trump indictment, but has not been charged. The next standoff in this case comes friday. A hearing will be held over what trump can and cannot say about the investigation. This comes after prosecutors sounded the alarm about comments the former president made on the trail and on social media. Major . Major a key word in that memo deprive. Robert costa, thank you. We turn now to a closelywatched battle over abortion. Supporters of Abortion Rights in ohio are claiming victory after voters overwhelmingly rejected a Ballot Measure that would have made it more difficult to add Abortion Protections to the states constitution. Cbss Caitlin Hueyburns reports on the political impact of the vote. Ohio, we did it. We did it [cheers and applause] reporter Voter Turnout far exceeded expectations for a Summer Special Election that sent a message across the country. They underestimated ohio. [cheers] and they have awakened a sleeping giant. Reporter at issue, whether to raise the threshold to amend the State Constitution from a simple majority, 50 plus one vote, to 60 . Republicans, including Secretary Of State frank larose, had hoped to implement the change ahead of november, when enshrining Abortion Protections into the State Constitution will be on the ballot. Of course we dont want to see a really radical abortion amendment put in our State Constitution. Reporter changing the rules at this stage in the game, isnt that stacking the deck . No. Reporter but 57 of ohio voters disagreed. Voters rejected the measure even in areas former President Trump won in 2020, and in each of ohios 88 counties, support for the proposal was less than the trump vote. Republican strategist Maura Gillespie says the results are a warning sign for her party. I think it speaks to this issue being a losing issue for republicans. They are never going to win, if they continue to isolate moderate republicans, independents, and many in their party who may be arent the loudest voices. Reporter but Ohio Republicans arent backing away. We lost one battle, but the war continues, and i have just begun to fight. Reporter and ohioans will vote directly on Abortion Rights this november with that constitutional amendment. And there are efforts underway in other states to get this issue on the ballot next year, a president ial year, and also in that big battleground of arizona. Major .

As we have reported, at least 35,000 Service Members were kicked out of the military because of their sexual orientation, but just over 1300 have had their Discharge Status changed since the dont ask, dont tell policy was repealed in 2010. Cbss jim axelrod reports on a new lawsuit against the pentagon that seeks to restore honor to thousands of veterans. Reporter this is 24yearold you. Correct. Reporter do you remember what she was thinking . I thought i was proud at that time, putting on that uniform was everything. Reporter when Sherrill Farrell joined the navy in 1985, she thought she had found a career. You wanted to do 20 years. That was my plan. Reporter you didnt even do ten months. No, sir. I wasnt allowed to. Reporter she says a casual conversation about gay clubs with a bunkmate landed her in front of naval investigators. Her Military Career was over a few months later.

Not because of anything else, just because of who i love. Reporter farrell is part of a group of veterans now suing the Defense Department to get their discharges changed and gain access to benefits like va loans, tuition assistance, and federal jobs. This case is not about damages. This case is about simply changing that piece of paper. Reporter Jocelyn Larkin is one of the lawyers representing farrell and others in a Class Action Lawsuit against the pentagon. Every time they have to show that document, they are essentially outed involuntarily. I mean, imagine if it was on your drivers license. Its ridiculous. Reporter the suit calls the existing process of trying to change events dd214 inadequate, opaque, and often requires veterans to hire a lawyer. It would take a lot less effort to change these documents than it did to hound them out and take away their dreams. Reporter as for Sherrill Farrell, she still has hope for an upgraded discharge and plans for when she gets one. Once they change my discharge, im going to frame both of those dd214s and hang them up. Because i want the country to know that i was willing to serve and die for my country, but you are telling me i am not able to serve because of who i love . And you are not even willing to serve, but you get all of the benefits. How fair is that . Reporter a Pentagon Spokesperson said the department does not comment on pending litigation, but in an earlier statement, stood by their existing discharge upgrade process. Major .
