- Perhaps the most captivating of Higgins’ claims involves Trump supporters allegedly being placed on a terror watchlist.

- “They were guilty only of arriving by air into DC on January 4th, 5th or 6th, and those manifests were turned over to the FBI,” he continued. “The FBI went through those manifests and every American that they identified … as a Trump supporter that was on those manifests was added to the FBI’s suspected domestic terrorist watchlist.”
