White supremacist charged in an alleged plot to solicit the murder of federal officials
Noah Lamb, 24, was charged in federal court in Northern California with eight counts, including soliciting the murder of federal officials and a conspiracy to assassinate federal officials, according to court records.
Lamb, along with two other individuals who were charged last year in the conspiracy, allegedly helped create what they called 'The List' – targeting perceived enemies of White supremacist accelerationism, an ideology centered around the belief that terrorism is necessary to ignite a race war that will create a White ethnostate in the US, prosecutors say.
The group, known as the Terrorgram Collective, includes a network of users and group chats on the private messaging platform Telegram. The group, which Lamb was allegedly part of for several years, created the list and disseminated to its members.
One of Lamb's responsibilities in the group, according to the charging documents, was to identify certain targets and find their home addresses and any other information that could be included in the kill list to help others find and target people on the list.
Court documents say the list included a US senator described as being an 'Anti-White, Anti-gun, Jewish Senator' as well as a federal judge who the White supremacy group saw as an 'invader' from a foreign country as well as someone they called 'first [racial slur] US Attorney.'
The list would include photographs of the targets along with their name, address, and, sometimes, the target's spouse, court documents say, along with an image of a rifle and 'a short description of why the target should be assassinated.'
Lamb was arrested Tuesday, and the Justice Department is asking he continue to be detained. Agents found White supremacist literature and gun parts with him, prosecutors said.
A lawyer for Lamb was not listed in court records of the case.

Appeals court lets the White House suspend or end billions in foreign aid
WASHINGTON (AP) — A divided panel of appeals court judges ruled Wednesday that the Trump administration can suspend or terminate billions of dollars of congressionally appropriated funding for foreign aid. Two of three judges from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit concluded that grant recipients challenging the freeze did not meet the requirements for a preliminary injunction restoring the flow of money. In January, on the first day of his second term in the White House, Republican President Donald Trump issued an executive order directing the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development to freeze spending on foreign aid. After groups of grant recipients sued to challenge that order, U.S. District Judge Amir Ali ordered the administration to release the full amount of foreign assistance that Congress had appropriated for the 2024 budget year. The appeal court's majority partially vacated Ali's order. Judges Karen LeCraft Henderson and Gregory Katsas concluded that the plaintiffs did not have a valid legal basis for the court to hear their claims. The ruling was not on the merits of whether the government unconstitutionally infringed on Congress' spending powers. 'The parties also dispute the scope of the district court's remedy but we need not resolve it ... because the grantees have failed to satisfy the requirements for a preliminary injunction in any event,' Henderson wrote. Judge Florence Pan, who dissented, said the Supreme Court has held 'in no uncertain terms' that the president does not have the authority to disobey laws for policy reasons. 'Yet that is what the majority enables today,' Pan wrote. 'The majority opinion thus misconstrues the separation-of-powers claim brought by the grantees, misapplies precedent, and allows Executive Branch officials to evade judicial review of constitutionally impermissible actions.' The money at issue includes nearly $4 billion for USAID to spend on global health programs and more than $6 billion for HIV and AIDS programs. Trump has portrayed the foreign aid as wasteful spending that does not align with his foreign policy goals. Henderson was nominated to the court by Republican President George H.W. Bush. Katsas was nominated by Trump. Pan was nominated by Democratic President Joe Biden.
