Falsely Accused❓ "Third" Trump Assassination Attempt: Not a Threat❓

Vem Miller, arrested near former President Donald Trump's rally in Coachella, California, has spoken out, denouncing claims of an assassination attempt and blasting what he calls "fake news" surrounding the incident. Initial reports from Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco painted a picture of a potential threat against the former president. Bianco reportedly told media outlets that deputies may have “thwarted” a third assassination attempt on Trump.

In a text to the Epoch Times, Bianco wrote, “We arrested a man trying to get in the perimeter with two firearms who ended up saying he was going to kill the president.”

However, these statements were later muddled when Bianco walked back his comments, claiming he couldn’t recall saying such a thing. Bianco later suggested that while there wasn’t definitive proof, the deputies’ actions might have “prevented” another attempt on Trump’s life.

In a fiery statement released on America Happens, Miller pushed back hard against the accusations, declaring them to be politically motivated nonsense.

“Probably the reason that God put me in that situation in order to be able to expose really what’s going on,” Miller said.

He explained that at every Trump rally he’s attended in Nevada, he’s made law enforcement aware of his legally owned firearms, and it’s never been an issue.

Miller believes his “critical mistake” was forgetting that he was in California, a state notorious for its strict gun laws, compared to more Second Amendment-friendly states like Nevada.

Miller also addressed the claim that he had counterfeit passes: “That’s complete nonsense,” he said.

“I can prove I had a special entry pass sent directly to me by officials within the Republican Party of Nevada. I was an actual invitee to that event. As I approached, there was an area where you enter the parking lot after passing a sheriff. I pulled up to the sheriff. Actually, I should take that back; I’m not 100% sure he was a sheriff. He was wearing a sheriff vest, but many of them were. My assumption is that not everyone there was a sheriff,” he added.

According to Miller, he was upfront with law enforcement, voluntarily informing them about the firearms in his vehicle.
