On Nov. 6, 2026, Secret Service officers arrested Ronny Yordrix Guanipa Chrinos near the White House on Constitution Avenue in Washington, D.C., after spotting him acting suspiciously in a parked car. DHS says he told officers voices in his head directed him to travel to the capital and kill President Trump. The vehicle was stolen and contained an AR-15-style rifle, a Mac-10, a Glock 43X and dozens of rounds of ammunition. Authorities say he entered the U.S. illegally through Texas in March 2024, was arrested by Border Patrol and later released into the country under the Biden administration. ICE has lodged a detainer; he faces multiple firearms, theft and weapons charges.
The Secret Service and DHS frame the arrest as part of a broader rise in threats around the White House. Officials say agents de-escalated a volatile situation and that the agency is increasingly focused on identifying potential attackers before they reach Washington.

BQatar is out in public tonight pushing Washington and Tehran to make a deal.
BSays who, and why now?
BAl Jazeera English posted on X that Qatar is urging the U.S. and Iran to reach a peace deal, warning they can't afford to wait for a 'perfect moment.'
BThat's a lot of nerve from a country that just denied the last round of talks collapsed.
BNo, that's exactly the point. Doha sees this thing spiraling, and it's scared.
BScared for its own gas fields, not for the region.
BSo what? Fear is a fantastic reason to push for a ceasefire.
BUntil the fear is coming from both sides and you end up saying whatever keeps the missiles away.
BThey didn't say take Iran's side. That's not appeasement, it's survival.
BIt's also cheap talk. Qatar's not putting troops on the line, not cutting anyone off.
BOh, come on. They're hosting the largest U.S. military base in the region. They are on the line.
BHosting a base and actually stopping the shooting are two different things.
BAnd yet that base gives them more skin in the game than most of the countries tweeting about peace.
BMaybe. But I still don't see what deal they can deliver. Iran's been fighting through proxies for years.
BI'm not saying Qatar can fix it alone. I'm saying when the mediator starts panicking, that should scare everyone.
BThat part I'll give you. The panic is real.
BRight. And that's the story. Not Qatar's motives, but that they're now saying it out loud.
BSpeaking of big promises, Trump says America is going to outdo the Paris Air Show.
BFox News posted on X that he says the U.S. will host the biggest air show in the world within two years.
BHis line is it'll be bigger and grander, but the details aren't confirmed.
BThe confirmed part is he's promoting a huge July 4 America 250 flyover over Washington, Air Force One and military jets. The biggest-air-show claim? Not confirmed.
BStill, a massive July 4 flyover over Washington with Air Force One and military jets? I'd watch that.
BI'd watch too. I'd just like the word 'biggest' checked before it goes in a headline.
BFair. But if he pulls it off, it could be a big show.
BI'll buy a ticket when it's on the calendar.
BDifferent world entirely: the Attorney General just drew a line around Stephen Miller.
BOh, I saw that. What's the exact quote?
BFox News posted on X that Todd Blanche said, 'Stephen Miller has a lawyer, and it's me. It's me and the entire Department of Justice.'
BThat's a full-on 'don't even think about it' from the nation's top law enforcement official.
BIt came after Democratic Congressman Robert Garcia warned the incoming White House... something. Fox's wording is cut off.
BSo we can't verify what Garcia actually said, and we can't confirm the exchange.
BRight. We need the full context. But the signal from Blanche is real: the DOJ will shield a top White House adviser.
BThat's the part that bothers me. The Justice Department isn't supposed to be anyone's personal law firm.
BNo, wait. He's saying if Congress tries to haul Miller in for political show trials, the department will push back. That's different.
BBut it's not different when the Attorney General says 'it's me.' It sounds personal.
BHe's allowed to be blunt. Miller's lawyer is the AG.
BThe job is to enforce the law, not to promise a specific individual protection.
BAlright, if Congress actually moves on Miller, we'll see whether it's a legal argument or just a promise. For now, it's a quote.
BAnd it's a quote that'll start a fight.
