Convicted Felon Arrested For Threatening to Kill Trump and His Entire Family Attended Arizona Rally After Butler Assassination Attempt

A convicted felon from Arizona was arrested for threatening to kill President Trump and his entire family in a series of videos posted to Facebook.

According to court documents, Manuel Tamayo-Torres attended a Glendale, Arizona Trump rally on August 23, just weeks after the Butler, Pennsylvania, assassination attempt.

Torres ranted about Trump’s “white privilege” and accused him of trying to traffic his daughter.

“You’re Caucasian nothing,” Tamayo-Torres said in a Facebook video posted last Thursday, according to Fox News. “You’ll earn nothing, Aryan money, that’s all you have. You’re a low life scum, I’ll spit in your f*cking face motherf*cker, and if they give me a chance, I’m going to f*cking bury you myself.”

“You’re gonna die, your son’s gonna die. Your whole family is going to die. This is reality for you now. This is the only reality you have in your future, dying,” Torres said on Facebook.

Manuel Tamayo-Torres faces a total of five federal charges for making threats against President Trump and for lying on Form 4473 when attempting to buy firearms.

Excerpt from Fox News:

Police and agents of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms have arrested an Arizona man for allegedly making expletive-laden death threats against President-elect Donald Trump and his family and attempting to illegally buy guns.

The suspect, Manuel Tamayo-Torres, also posted photos from a Trump rally in August in Glendale, according to court documents – a rally that took place less than six weeks after the first assassination attempt on Trump’s life in Butler, Pennsylvania.

He has a 2003 conviction of assault causing great bodily injury in California, for which he received a six-year prison sentence. Then in July 2023, his ex-wife obtained a restraining order against him in Arizona.

His felony history and the active restraining order both banned him from owning firearms, but on Nov. 13 and again on Nov. 15, 2023, he went to a Shooters World store in Phoenix, Arizona, and filled out the 4473 form for a background check.
