The warrent had 3 counts: interstate threats, threats against the president, and influencing, impeding and retaliating against federal law enforcement officers by threat

There's even more details on other news articles. The guy was making explicit threats to a lot of people:

"I want to stand over Bragg and put a nice hole in his forehead with my 9mm and watch him twitch as a drop of blood oozes from the hole as his life ebbs away to hell!!” he wrote

"The time is right for a presidential assassination or two,” Robertson reportedly wrote in a September 2022 Facebook post. “First Joe then Kamala!!!”

"Hey FBI, you still monitoring my social media? Checking so I can be sure to have a loaded gun handy in case you drop by again,” he wrote in one post.
