Madman with antisemitic manifesto arrested in ‘potential plot’ to assassinate Rep. Jared Moskowitz

Florida Rep. Jared Moskowitz revealed Friday that a maniac carrying a manifesto with “antisemitic rhetoric” was arrested in his district in connection to a potential plot on the lawmaker’s life.

The Democratic congressman from the Sunshine State’s 23rd District shared details about the disturbing threat in a post on X, saying the suspect was busted last Saturday “not far” from Moskowitz’s home.

Margate police arrested Johnathan Lapinski, 41, in connection to the incident, according to NBC News. He was charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and other gun-related charges, according to that report.

Lapinski, a convicted felon, was in possession of a rifle, a suppressor, and body armor, according to Moskowitz.

The maniac was also in possession of a manifesto that had “antisemitic rhetoric” and the congressman’s name on a “target list,” the lawmaker said.

In the statement, Moskowitz highlighted the seemingly ongoing threats against politicians.

“As someone who was appointed to the Task Force on the Attempted Assassination of Donald Trump, I understand the failures and importance of fixing the protection of our current and future Commander-In-Chief and Vice President,” Moskowitz wrote on X.

“At the same time, I am deeply worried about Congressional member security and the significant lack thereof when we are in district,” he added.

It was revealed on Friday that Iran attempted to organize an assassination attempt of President-elect Donald Trump.

In a bombshell criminal complaint, feds said Farhad Shakeri, 51, was tasked by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps with “surveilling, and, ultimately, assassinating” Trump.

The murder-for-hire plot also targeted prominent Brooklyn journalist and vocal Tehran-critic, Masih Alinejad. Brooklyn native Carlisle “Pop” Rivera, 49, and Staten Islander Jonathan Loadholt, 36, were arrested and are being charged in connection to that plot.

Back in 2017, a madman armed with a rifle shot GOP Rep. Steve Scalise during a baseball practice in Washington, DC.

James Hodgkinson, 66, used a semiautomatic rifle and a handgun to fire at least 50 rounds at the congressman and Capitol Police officers.

Hodgkinson was killed at the scene of the shootout.

Moskowitz is married and has two sons. He was elected to the House of Representatives in 2023.
