The Hodgetwins, also known as the Conservative Twins, broke the news, highlighting the contrast between the treatment of Hughes and members of groups like BLM and Antifa. They questioned the motivations behind such disparate actions.
According to the Hodgetwins, Hughes was arrested in Fayetteville, Arkansas on August 30. He was raided by the FBI and arrested at gunpoint for his involvement in the Capitol event that occurred over two and a half years ago. Hughes described the arrest, stating, "On the morning of August 30th, 2023, I was swarmed by 3 vehicles of heavily armed FBI agents and arrested with rifles pointed at me. I was booked and taken to a government facility where they made me give them DNA samples."
During the raid, the FBI disconnected Hughes's security cameras and disabled his internet. Hughes's girlfriend, who had recently suffered a miscarriage, was also held at gunpoint and handcuffed. The FBI contacted the manufacturer of Hughes's Liberty Safe and obtained the passcode after providing proof of a valid warrant. Hughes expressed gratitude that their dogs were unharmed during the raid.
