An Oregon military veteran, accused of making violent threats against President Donald Trump and supporters of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on social media, has been apprehended on additional charges shortly after a court appearance related to his previous threats. The individual, identified as Travis Juhr, 41, had been amassing AR-style rifles, shotguns, and Tannerite explosives, among other weapons.

Juhr was detained at a federal courthouse in Portland last Friday, facing multiple accusations of second-degree arson, reckless burning, and criminal mischief. These charges are connected to a vandalism incident reported on February 3 near the ICE facility in Portland’s South Waterfront area, as detailed by The Oregonian.

His arrest occurred shortly after he pleaded not guilty to the charges related to his alleged online threats last year. According to a federal complaint, Juhr posted on Facebook expressing his anticipation of Trump’s death, a message which drew the attention of the U.S. Secret Service.

This was just one in a series of threats he reportedly made against Trump and ICE supporters. Additionally, he is accused of threatening a Nevada commissioner, who confirmed to The Nevada Independent that she was targeted on social media platform X.

The federal complaint further alleges Juhr expressed a desire to “mag dump Trump,” highlighting the severity of the threats he allegedly conveyed.

“Juhr stated he wanted to ‘mag dump Trump,’” the federal complaint alleges.

The ICE building that Juhr is accused of targeting in the arson attack is located in the 600 block of South Bancroft Street and has been the focus of numerous anti-ICE demonstrations, which Juhr has taken part in, according to The Oregonian. He has reportedly been spotted protesting there while wearing a bomber-style jacket and holding a Captain America shield.

Two people that Juhr allegedly targeted in the threats case are described by federal prosecutors as a mother and her 13-year-old son who attended an ICE counterprotest in support of immigration enforcement called “Patriots Night,” according to the complaint.

“Divine punishment will be the price for your wickedness,” Juhr allegedly wrote in X messages to the 13-year-old. “Jesus can’t save you from what’s coming,” he said, according to the complaint. “Excited for the obituaries.”

Juhr was arrested at his home in mid-February by FBI agents, who executed a search warrant and found his alleged weapons cache. A Portland police officer had previously filed for an extreme risk protection order against Juhr in response to accusations that he was becoming “increasingly hostile” to law enforcement officers and making threats to use lethal force, The Oregonian reports.

In his alleged threats toward the Nevada commissioner, prosecutors say Juhr wrote, “I’m coming down to Nevada for you” and “I hope you have your doors and windows locked. Because I love a challenge when hunting my PREY. #MAGAHuntersPDX.”

Juhr’s public defender has described him in court as being a U.S. Navy veteran with 10 years of active duty experience, five years with the Coast Guard, and training as a paramedic and rescue swimmer.

Juhr’s Facebook page, which has been deactivated, reportedly claimed he studied cybersecurity at Mt. Hood Community College and had worked as a voice and network engineer. He posted on LinkedIn last month that he was starting a new job as an IT systems architect for the state of Oregon, but a spokesperson told The Oregonian that he was not employed at that time.
