A repeatedly deported illegal alien from Mexico is now locked up accused of threatening, in writing, to assassinate President Trump.
The Department of Homeland Security says 54 year old Ramon Morales-Reyes mailed a handwritten note to an ICE officer spelling out his plan.
Fox News reports the note says "We are tired of this president messing with us Mexicans – We have done more for this country than you white people – you have been deporting my family and I think it is time Donald J. Trump get what he has coming to him,"
According to DHS, Reyes had entered the U.S. illegally at least nine times between 1999 and 2005 and has a long rap sheet including felony hit-and-run, criminal damage to property and domestic abuse.
The note goes on to say "I will self deport myself back to Mexico but not before I use my 30 yard 6 [apparently referencing a .30-6 rifle] to shoot your precious president in is head – I will see him at one of his big ralleys [sic]."
Reyes is now in the Dodge County Jail in Juneau Wisconsin, DHS says. Officials say he will be deported.
