WILKINSBURG, Pa. — An Allegheny County man has been arrested after allegedly making threats against a member of Congress and President Donald Trump.
Officers and agents were seen coming in and out of a home in the 400 block of Biddle Avenue near Pitt Street in Wilkinsburg Friday afternoon.
Pittsburgh's Action News 4 was the only crew at the scene as the raid was being conducted.
Raymond Chandler is facing two charges:
Influencing, Impeding or Retaliating Against a Federal Official by Threatening a Family Member and by Threatening a Federal Official Influencing, Impeding or Retaliating against a Federal Official by Threat According to an unsealed court document, Chandler left a voicemail threatening to assault and kill the daughter of the Congress member and the Congress member. Chandler allegedly did so to interfere with the Congress member's work. Court documents did not identify which member of Congress Chandler left the voicemail for.
Chandler made an initial appearance at the federal courthouse in Pittsburgh on Friday. It was a brief proceeding, with Chandler being advised of his charges. A preliminary hearing was set for May 8.

Threatening voicemails left for member of Congress Warning: The transcript is disturbing.
Court documents state Chandler let the following voicemail on April 18:
“Sir, I have, uh, I'm calling this morning ’cause I want you to imagine a scenario. I want you to imagine a scenario where all the 1,200 billionaires in this country, all their properties are surrounded simultaneously by a thousand people. So imagine your house, your daughter’s house, everyone you know and love who is also rich. Imagine every single one of those homes being surrounded by a thousand people. Then imagine them all getting a text and then, then suddenly taking out their pocket knives, walking slowly towards your house with 10, you got your 10 guards or whatever against a thousand people, and then they come and they pull you out of your house and they slit your throat and they slit your daughter’s throat and they slit everyone’s throat. That you know, sir, that is the future. It's not a future I want, it's not a future I'm advocating for, but wealth concentration has gotten so bad in this country. The greed has gotten so bad. People are suffering so much, sir, that that is what is in our future. You will not escape their wrath. We must redistribute the wealth away from people like you.”
Over a week after that voicemail, Chandler allegedly called the Congress member again. This time, court documents say Chandler left a voicemail threatening President Trump.
"I want you to kill the President."
During that voicemail, Chandler told the Congress member he wanted them to walk into the Oval Office with a gun and assassinate the president.
“You've probably getting quite used to my voice. Sir, I’m calling this evening because what I want you to do is I want you to take a firearm. I want you to put it in your hand. I want you to walk into the Oval Office. I want you to put that firearm to the President’s head, and I want you to pull the trigger and I want you to kill him. I am petitioning you, Senator for redress of grievances. My redress of grievances is that this president is awful . . . He’s a liar among all liars. He’s a great deceiver. He’s the antichrist. I want you to walk into the Oval Office with a gun in your hand. I want you to put it to his temple, and I want you to pull the trigger. That is what I want you to do as my agent. That’s what I want you to do as my elected official. That’s what I am petitioning you to do with my free speech. I want you to kill the President. I want you to assassinate the President. That’s what I want you to do. Now, Senator, are you gonna come after me? Are you going to try me because of my voice and what I said?”
Multiple other voicemails left to member of Congress Chandler allegedly left multiple voicemails between April 18, 2025 and through the final voice mail message on April 29, 2025.
Court documents said other messages Chandler left included support for armed resistance against ICE, wanting to build gallows to hang the Congress member, and telling the Congress member that he bought a combat knife because he feared the government would kill him.
Statement from the FBI: This morning, FBI Pittsburgh and the U.S. Secret Service arrested Raymond Chandler for threatening to kill federal officials, including President Trump and a member of Congress. The FBI will not tolerate threats of violence and will work tirelessly to protect public officials and all members of our communities. This arrest is a great example of our work with our law enforcement partners at the USSS, the U.S Capitol Police and the United States Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Pennsylvania.

Picture from another article. Looks about right.
Another GoFundMe millionaire has arisen...
I didn’t see this article mentioning he is running for office...as a democrat of course.
“An FBI agent details in the criminal complaint the allegations against Chandler, who has a website set up announcing his campaign for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania to replace Sen. John Fetterman (D-Penn.). The page breaks down his goals: “Tax the Billionaires”; “Fight Against Corruption”; and “Support Working Families.
And I say this all should be read with the theme from Perry Mason as you do: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PA9t1nSGXXE
What a douchebag
So basically this fruitcake watches CNN and MSNBC all day long and repeats the same nonsense he hears all day long and people wonder why mental illness is an epidemic in this country

Another IQ challenged dumpster diver.
Commie puke ...
Someone who knows how to post a picture...put a pic of Rosie O’Donnell and tell me that’s not her brother!
The leftist media is really resonating. These people are just begging for another civil war. The media thinks they will be the last to get eaten.
In his defense, he is trying to fight against fascism. /sarcasm
And he’s running against Fetterman for Senate, ya know what, considering what disgusting pukes are in the Dem party this guy might still stand a chance
The leftist media wont be satisfied til everyday another Charlie Kirk gets murdered, then they can go on TV and claim “Well both sides gotta stop their rhetoric” when in reality they want ALL Republicans dead. I read a few days ago about a congressional candidate being found dead in the woods I forgot which state, a Republican, of course ZERO mention in the press
The Jackass Party of Hate has been threatening every Republican President since at least Dick Nixon.

Check his beard for handcuff key, fentanyl packets and a ladies’ purse gun that fires one round.
Don’t say I didn’t warn them.
Lawyer: Your honor, everything my client said merely expresses in other words the sentiments of Rachel Maddow, Don Lemon, Lawrence O’Donnell, James Carville, Hakeem Jeffries, James Clyburn and the others on this long list I now ask to introduce in evidence with your honor’s permission. And this digital recording of Mr. James “Jimmy” Kimmel as to making Melania Trump a widow.
End stage TDS isn’t pretty...

No offense but please allow us time to get a barf bag before that shrew’s mug is shown. Thank you in advance.
