An Oklahoma resident faces arraignment this week on numerous federal charges following attempts on the lives of law enforcement officers and threats against various individuals, including “MAGA” supporters and former President Donald Trump, as reported by the Justice Department.
According to a federal complaint from the Western District of Oklahoma, Taylor Prigmore, 30, from McLoud, allegedly declared on YouTube on January 17, “Our presidents needs to die to save lives.”
In another post on the same date, Prigmore purportedly expressed frustration, writing, “I really tired of dumb f—s pretending he’ll obey the courts. What is the 2nd amendment for? Ending MAGA.”
Prigmore’s January 16 YouTube post reportedly stated, “I can’t wait for the civil war. … Kill kill you MAGA f—s,” according to his indictment filed on February 17. He allegedly continued on January 17 with a post urging preparation for civil unrest and targeting federal agents.
The federal prosecutors indicate that Prigmore’s threats began on May 9, 2025, and persisted until January 17, 2026. During this time, he is accused of making menacing remarks about killing any law enforcement personnel who approached his home, expressing a desire to eliminate “as many as possible.”
“On January 19, 2026, the FBI arrested Prigmore,” a DOJ press release recounts. “During a brief standoff before his arrest, Prigmore fired multiple rounds at federal agents. No one was injured.”
Prigmore was indicted by a federal jury last week and charged with attempted murder of federal law enforcement; assaulting federal officers, possessing, brandishing, and discharging a firearm in the furtherance of a crime of violence; four counts of threatening to murder federal law enforcement officers, and two counts of communicating a threat.
“Be brave. Say it where ever you go. Kill feds,” Prigmore wrote in a May 9 YouTube post, according to his indictment. “Buy a gun. This is life and death.”
In another post from Jan. 17, Prigmore allegedly said, “It’s not sarcasm. I live in america. I am prepping physically and mentally to kill federal agents. Have you not seen the news of late. The nazi’s are winning over here. … Sex slaves, lynchings, rapes, disappearances and murders, are being perpetrated by ICE. In the open now. I intend to kill these people as law has abandon justice here.”
Federal investigators found a Hi-Point, model Luger C9, 9 mm semiautomatic pistol in Prigmore’s possession after he opened fire on officers, his indictment says. He faces up to 100 years in federal prison, if convicted, and fines of up to $2.25 million. He’s scheduled to be arraigned on Thursday.
