"An Illinois man who reportedly flipped a table owned by the conservative campus group Turning Point USA and was later removed from his teaching assistant role at Illinois State University has now been arrested on federal charges after allegedly threatening to kill Donald Trump.
The defendant, Derek S. Lopez, 27, of El Paso, Illinois, was taken into custody Tuesday night by federal agents and local authorities in conjunction with the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the United States Secret Service, according to a criminal complaint. The arrest stems from posts on social media in which Lopez reportedly declared “I’m gonna kill Donald Trump” and appeared in a video pointing a handgun at a digitally altered image of Trump wearing a crown with red crosshairs on his forehead."
