   A Southern California man was arrested and charged Friday with making   
   death threats against Vice President JD Vance during his visit to   
   Disneyland last year.   
      
   Marco Antonio Aguayo, 22, is charged with threats against the president   
   and successors to the presidency. He is expected to make his initial   
   appearance in the US District Court in Santa Ana on Tuesday.   
      
   “This case is a horrific reminder of the dangers public officials face   
   from deranged criminals who would do them harm,” Attorney General Pam   
   Bondi said in a statement. “I am grateful that my friend Vice President   
   Vance and his family are safe, applaud the police work that led to the   
   arrest, and will ensure my prosecutors deliver swift justice.”   
      
   Aguayo allegedly made the threats via Instagram, in the comments section   
   of a post made by the Walt Disney Company’s official account.   
      
   Vance’s wife, Usha, and at least two of their children were with the   
   vice president during the visit to the “Happiest Place on Earth.”   
      
   “Pipe bombs have been placed in preparation for JD Vance’s arrival,”   
   Aguayo allegedly wrote, in one of three unhinged comments left on July   
   12, 2025.   
      
   Another comment read, “It’s time for us to rise up and you will be a   
   witness to it.”   
      
   “Good luck finding all of them on time there will be bloodshed tonight   
   and we will bathe in the blood of corrupt politicians,” Aguayo allegedly   
   boasted in the final deranged message.   
      
   Two Secret Service agents and an Anaheim Police Department sergeant paid   
   Aguayo a visit less than five hours after the comments were posted.   
      
   Aguayo initially denied knowledge of the posts and claimed that his   
   account had been hacked, according to a criminal complaint.   
      
   However, he later admitted to posting the threatening comments and   
   allowed the agents access to his Instagram account, so they could view   
   the posts, authorities said.   
      
   Aguayo claimed the comments were “a joke to provoke attention and   
   laughter,” and he told law enforcement he “forgot” to delete them.   
      
   If convicted, Aguayo faces a maximum sentence of five years in federal   
   prison.   
      
   “We will not tolerate criminal threats against public officials,” First   
   Assistant United States Attorney Bill Essayli said in a statement. “We   
   are grateful the Vice President and his family remained safe during   
   their visit.   
      
   “Let this case be a warning to anyone who thinks they can make anonymous   
   online threats. We will find you and bring you to justice.”   
      
   A spokesperson for Vance did not immediately respond to The Post’s   
   request for comment.
