"Tennessee Man Arrested for Alleged Plot to Attack Southern Border with Militia"

A Tennessee man, Paul Faye Sr., was arrested after an undercover FBI investigation revealed his plans to travel to the US-Mexico border with weapons to "conduct acts of violence." Faye allegedly discussed transporting explosive devices to the border with militia groups from multiple states and planned to work as a sniper. He is charged with possession or transfer of a non-registered firearm and faces a maximum fine of $250,000 and a maximum prison sentence of 10 years. The arrest comes amid a growing feud between Texas and federal authorities over the migrant crisis and a highly contested border bill on Capitol Hill.
