A 25 year old Michigan man is in federal custody following threats to kill President Trump — and conservative Christians who support him — if he were to win the election.  The man claimed to have weapons and ammunition, and oddly enough some type of “chemical irritant”.

The documents related to the charges and federal proceedings were unsealed today.  The man was identified by the Justice Department as Isaac Sissel of Ann Arbor, Michigan, according to a report in the MI news outlet, MLive.

A 25-year-old man has been charged in federal court after threatening to kill former President Donald Trump and Christian conservatives if Trump wins the election.

Isaac Sissel was arrested the morning of Tuesday, Nov. 5 after an anonymous online submission to the FBI National Threat Operations Center indicated he planned to carry out an attack against conservative Christians.

“I have a stolen ar15 (sic) and a target I refuse to name so I can continue to get away with my plans,” the threat read in part, according to court records. “Without a specific victim or ability to find the place I hid the gun, there’s not a thing the FBI can do until I complete the attack.”

The submission also indicated that whoever made the complaint had a firearm, hollow point ammunition and a chemical irritant, according to court records.

Officials used phone records and an IP address to connect the submission to Sissel, according to court records.

Sissel has also been connected to several Reddit accounts with usernames like “ShootUpTrumpRally,” “PlanningToShootTrump” and “WillShootTrumpSoon,” according to court records.

According to the Channel 2 Now article referenced in the above post, Sissel (allegedly the man shown above), was arrested as a result of multiple messages he sent which were intercepted by the FBI’s National Threat Operation’s Center.

According to court records, on November 2, 2024, the FBI National Threat Operations Center in West Virginia intercepted an anonymous online message containing a detailed threat.

In the message, Sissel allegedly declared his intent to carry out an attack if the 2024 election resulted in a win for former President Donald Trump.

FBI agents apprehended Sissel this morning, and he is expected to appear in federal court later this afternoon to face these charges.

The case is currently under investigation by the FBI Detroit Field Office, which is working to gather further details on Sissel’s plans and any other potential threats.

CBS News is actually reporting that two different Michigan men have been arrested, one of which was Sissel.  The other man appears to have been arrested in a completely different instance of threatening a political action committee with threatening emails.

Two Michigan men have been arrested for allegedly making election threats in two separate incidents, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said on Tuesday.

According to federal criminal complaints, a 46-year-old man from Jackson allegedly sent two threatening emails to a political action committee (PAC) on Oct. 2, while a 25-year-old man from Ann Arbor allegedly threatened to “shoot conservative Christians” if Trump wins the election a few days before Election Day.

These and incidents like them seem to be unfortunately “normalized” in the current political climate, with Hitler comparisons and Nazi references becoming increasingly normal from democratic party leaders.
