Vem Miller, a 49-year-old Trump supporter, is pushing back against allegations of an assassination attempt after being arrested near a rally for former President Donald Trump in Coachella, California, the Gateway Pundit reported. Miller was taken into custody after Riverside County Sheriff’s deputies found firearms in his vehicle at a checkpoint near the event. He has since been charged with possession of illegal firearms but maintains that the situation has been misrepresented.

Law enforcement officials discovered a shotgun, handgun, and a high-capacity magazine in Miller’s vehicle, along with what they initially described as counterfeit VIP and press passes for Trump’s rally. Miller was released on $5,000 bail and now faces misdemeanor charges for the firearms. However, Miller insists that the weapons were legally obtained and registered and that his actions were within his Second Amendment rights.
Miller explained that he had attended several Trump rallies in Nevada, where he had informed law enforcement about his legally owned firearms without incident. “I was exercising full transparency,” Miller stated. “At the checkpoint, I informed the officer that I had two lawful firearms in my truck.” He acknowledged that California’s stricter gun laws differ from Nevada’s, but he believes his conduct was lawful.
Sheriff Chad Bianco initially described the arrest as potentially preventing a third assassination attempt on Trump. In a text to The Epoch Times, Bianco said, “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, Bianco later stated that there was no definitive proof of such intent and suggested that the deputies’ actions might have “prevented” a possible incident.
