Tyler Miles Leveque, 37, of Albuquerque, has been indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of interstate communications containing threats against President Donald Trump.
Tyler Leveque was accused of making several threatening posts toward President Trump from January 2 to January 4, 2025, according to a criminal complaint filed by the U.S. District Court for the District of New Mexico.
Leveque explicitly stated his intentions in various posts, saying, “you and your rich friends are dead no threat a promise” and ominously tagged the President Trump profile in several threats.
The situation escalated quickly when the U.S. Secret Service, along with Albuquerque Police Department’s Crisis Intervention Team, confronted Leveque at his residence on January 6.
During the encounter, Leveque admitted to authoring the threatening posts and claimed his actions were an exercise of freedom of speech, driven by his frustration with the government.
On January 3, 2025, he tagged Trump’s profile in a post stating, “Cant wait for your Victory rally! The 19th right!? Lol, you and your rich friends are dead no threat a promise.”
Further investigations by the U.S. Secret Service indicated that Leveque made multiple threats over several days leading up to his arrest.
In one post, he stated, “Hey @celebrities @ceos @elonmusk @DonaldTrump @Joemarafa it’s too late for y’all should’ve shut down TikTok a long time ago see u on the 19th for war!”
His online activities culminated in an arrest at his residence on January 6 by a team including the FBI and Albuquerque Police.
During the arrest, Leveque admitted to making the posts and claimed they were an exercise of free speech. He also disclosed having purchased a firearm online, which he had not yet picked up.
On Thursday, Leveque was charged with interstate communications containing a threat against the President.
If convicted, he faces a potential sentence of up to five years in federal prison. He will remain in custody pending trial, which has not yet been scheduled.
