Miller, a 49-year-old producer of conspiracy-themed documentaries, recently discussed assassination attempts against Trump in an interview with retired Army Lieutenant Colonel Ivan Raiklin, who calls himself Trump’s “secretary of retribution.” This interview aired on the America Happens Network, a platform co-founded by Miller as an alternative to mainstream media.

In a conversation posted on Rumble on October 1, Miller expressed concerns about potential election theft, stating, “We need to be prepared.” Raiklin responded with a plan to counter threats, suggesting he had considered scenarios including assassination attempts on Trump.

Raiklin told Miller, “If they assassinate any political presidential candidate, America will respond in kind.” This alarming dialogue included Raiklin discussing strategies to deal with potential threats against Trump, indicating a belief that such actions could lead to severe repercussions for those responsible.

Miller’s arrest occurred when Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco reported that a deputy stopped him at the rally’s inner perimeter after he passed through the outer perimeter, possibly believing he was a VIP or part of the press. Upon searching Miller’s vehicle, deputies found disarray, multiple identification documents under different names, and illegal firearms, including a loaded handgun and a shotgun. Sheriff Bianco suggested that Miller’s arrest may have prevented a third assassination attempt.

Miller, however, claimed he had no intention of harming Trump, asserting he is “100 percent a Trump supporter.” He denied being part of the “sovereign citizen” movement or carrying fake identification.

Following the arrest, Mindy Robinson, Miller’s partner at America Happens Network, alleged on social media that the incident was a retaliatory action by the “Deep State.” She argued that Miller’s work exposing government cover-ups should be acknowledged rather than mischaracterized.

Raiklin, commenting on the situation, predicted retractions regarding the incident, asserting that the sheriff’s actions could damage his political ambitions.

The arrest has drawn attention across social media, with users sharing photos of Miller alongside various Republican figures, highlighting his connections within the party. The incident raises questions about the intersections of political fanaticism, conspiracy theories, and the implications for public safety amidst a deeply polarized political landscape.
