Trump Campaign Co-Chair Arrested for Conspiracy to Commit an Offense Against
the United States

Jerry Delemus, the husband of a New Hampshire Republican lawmaker and
co-chair of the state’s "Veterans for Trump" [3] coalition, was arrested
Thursday for his role in the armed standoff nearly two years ago at the
Bundy ranch.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation arrested Delemus on nine federal
charges--including conspiracy to commit an offense against the United
States, threatening a federal law enforcement officer, obstruction of
justice, attempting to impede or injure a federal law enforcement officer
and several firearms charges, reported Portsmouth Patch [4].
The Tea Party activist and outspoken Donald Trump [5] supporter traveled
cross-country in 2014 to take part in the armed standoff between Bureau of
Land Management agents and Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy and his militia
supporters in a dispute over unpaid grazing fees.
He was apparently the security team member [6] who asked Jerad and Amanda
Miller toleave the Bundy ranch [7] just weeks before they gunned down two
Las Vegas police officers.
Delemus also traveled to Oregon [8] in January to take part in the armed
occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Preserve.
His wife, state Rep. Susan Delemus (R-Rochester) announced the arrest to the
former chairman of New Hampshire’s Republican Party--who issued a call on
Facebook for "all NH patriots to come together ASAP" to "protest this
tyranny in the most visible way possible."
"She said that the FBI just rolled up with lots of vehicles and Agents who
were in tactical gear," posted Jack Kimball, the former GOP chair. "They
forced their way into Jerry Delemus and Sue’s condo with weapons drawn and
arrested Jerry and took him away."
Delemus and his wife have been quoted multiple times by local and national
media about their support for Trump.
Susan Delemus gained a measure of fame after she declared every politician
but Trump was lying to her through the television [9].
"We’ve got people in positions of power who I know for a fact are liars.
Liars!" Delemus said. "I watch the TV--My president comes on the TV and he
lies to me! I know he’s lying. He lies all the time."
She also made news four years ago, when she angrily confronted state
officials in an attempt to keep Obama off the ballot in New Hampshire,
causing the assistant secretary of state to fear for his safety.
Most recently, Susan Delemus made news for siding with Trump [10] in his
feud with Pope Francis.
"The Pope is the anti-Christ," Susan Delemus posted on her own Facebook
page. "Do your research."
Jerry DeLemus switched over in July from Sen. Ted Cruz’s leadership team in
New Hampshire, and instead backed Trump because he’s an "anti-politician."
The failed candidate for "constitutional candidate" also organized the
infamous rally where Trump failed to correct a man who called Obama a
Muslim.

now-jailed militant leader Ammon Bundy:
