On Tuesday, a federal grand jury charged a man from San Bernardino County, California, for allegedly making threats to assassinate then-President-elect Donald Trump following his re-election in November.

The U.S. Department of Justice announced that Thomas Eugene Streavel, aged 73 from Yucca Valley, faces three charges for threatening the President-elect.

Streavel was arraigned in U.S. District Court in Riverside, California on Tuesday, a day after he was arrested. 

“The defendant is accused of threatening the life of our President – someone who has already endured two failed attempts on his life,” stated Attorney General Pam Bondi. “The Department of Justice treats these threats with the greatest seriousness and is committed to prosecuting such crimes to the fullest extent possible.”

“Let me put a bullet right between the ears of your president-elect that instantly makes AMERICA great again,” the indictment states Streavel wrote. “That’s my purpose for living. It would give me great pleasure to kill the worthless mother f- – – – -.”

The third charge was based on an alleged post to Facebook by Streavel on Nov. 28.

“I’m praying for a successful assassination of your president-elect that will immediately make America great again for the good of our nation,” Streavel allegedly wrote. “I would gladly give my left nut to be the one who puts the bullet right between his ears. My life’s mission is killing the worthless LOSER piece of s- – – and my mission starts tonight so watch yourself Trump, you are a dead mother f- – – – – and I am your assassin. ‘GOD BLESS AMERICA.’”

“The type of rhetoric and threats made by this defendant are similar to those that led to an attempt on the President’s life last year,” U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli said. “There is no place for political violence or threats of violence in the United States. We will not hesitate to arrest and charge others who engage in similar criminal conduct.”

Streavel has pleaded not guilty to all three charges, and he is due back in court for trial on July 28, 2025.

A federal magistrate judge ordered him released on $10,000 bond.

If convicted, Streavel could be sentenced to a maximum of five years in federal prison for each count.
