A 19-year-old man with a van full of guns and explosives has been charged by feds for plotting the&nbsp;assassination of&nbsp;Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.

It comes on the same day as the last presidential debate and with less than two weeks to go for the US election 2020 on November 3.

Alexander Hillel&nbsp;Treisman&nbsp;had posted a&nbsp;meme captioned "should I kill Joe Biden?"

The feds believe that it was not an idle threat as&nbsp;Treisman had conducted internet searches seeking information about Biden's home address, state gun laws, and night vision goggles.&nbsp;

He was arrested&nbsp;after a search of his abandoned white Ford van in Kannapolis, North Carolina revealed several weapons including an AR-15 style semi-automatic rifle and a canister of explosive material.

The search also found&nbsp;books on bomb-making, $509,000 in US currency, and drawings of swastikas and planes crashing into buildings, according to the October 6 filing in the US District Court for the Middle District, North Carolina.

The currency was believed to be&nbsp;Treisman's inheritance, officials said in the filing.&nbsp;

Following his arrest, the Federal Bureau of Investigation searched his phone, computers, and other devices and found 1,248 videos and 6,721 images of child pornography content, according to federal prosecutors..

He also purchased an AR-15 in New Hampshire and traveled to a Wendy's fast-food restaurant within four miles of Biden's home and wrote a checklist note ending with "execute," according to testimony by officers in the court filing, first reported by the Daily Beast on Thursday.

After his arrest the "defendant disclosed that he has an interest in terrorist incidents and mass shootings," and had traveled across the country to buy a variety of firearms, the document said.

Treisman&nbsp;was arrested on May 28 and on September 28 was indicted by a federal grand jury for possession of child pornography, it said.

Treisman&nbsp;did not have any prior criminal history.

ABC News said it was not clear why&nbsp;Treisman&nbsp;has so far just been charged with possession of child pornography.
