Driving the news: Craig Deleeuw Robertson is accused of making threats against public figures, including Biden and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, according to charging documents obtained by Axios.
- The incident occurred when special agents attempted to serve arrest and search warrants at a residence in Provo, the FBI said in a statement.

State of play: Biden is set to land in Utah Wednesday afternoon as part of his three-state southwestern tour and his first visit to the Beehive State as president.
