An assassination threat against U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has led to the arrest of a 30-year-old Minnesota man, after federal agents tracked a murder-for-hire TikTok post that offered $45,000 for her death.
According to the Tampa Free Press, the suspect, Tyler Maxon Avalos of St. Paul, Minnesota, is facing federal charges for Interstate Transmission of a Threat to Injure the Person of Another, a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 875(c).
The investigation began on October 9, 2025, when a Detroit-based TikTok user reported a chilling video to the FBI’s National Threat Operations Center (NTOC).
The post, under the handle @liminalvoidslip, depicted Pam Bondi’s photograph with a red sniper-scope sight aimed at her forehead.
The text accompanying the image read:
- “WANTED: Pam Bondi”
- “REWARD: $45,000”
- “DEAD OR ALIVE (PREFERABLY DEAD)”
Avalos reportedly added a sinister caption beneath the image:
“cough cough when they don’t serve us then what?”
