In a crucial new development, the sinister plot to kill Donald Trump during his 2024 presidential campaign has taken a troubling turn.

This conspiracy, involving a Chinese rifle, has led to the guilty pleas of gun traffickers Tina Cooper and Ronnie Oxendine.
These individuals provided a firearm to Ryan Routh, accused of plotting Trump’s assassination.
Cooper and Oxendine were critical players in the transfer of the SKS rifle, a semi-automatic weapon, sold to Routh under false pretenses last August.
The Department of Justice has accused them of enabling Routh’s nefarious intent by unlawfully supplying him with a weapon.
Despite Routh’s claim of needing the rifle “for his son to use as protection,” it later emerged he had a more sinister purpose.
The court filings revealed that Routh used the SKS rifle in a failed attempt to assassinate Trump at his Florida golf club.
Thankfully, his plot was thwarted, but not without concern.
Routh, who has a history of similar offenses, was not legally permitted to possess firearms due to prior weapons convictions.
He currently faces charges of attempted assassination and unlawful possession.
“Two defendants who supplied a firearm to the man charged with trying to kill President Donald Trump in Florida in 2024 have pleaded guilty to gun-related charges, newly-surfaced court documents show,” The Daily Caller reported.
Cooper and Oxendine’s legal battles have only intensified.
Cooper faces up to 15 years in federal prison for firearms trafficking, while Oxendine could spend 10 years for possessing an unregistered firearm.
Both defendants have admitted to actions that suggest they tried to cover their tracks.
Cooper’s attempt to have Oxendine erase all communications linked to Routh implies a clear desire to conceal their involvement, making this a case that shakes the very core of legal and ethical bounds.
BREAKING NEWS: The DOJ has charged 2 co-conspirators who helped Ryan Routh in his alleged plot to assassinate Trump.
The co-conspirators, Tina Brown Cooper and Ronnie Jay Oxendine, were both charged in March, and have already pled guilty. Their cases have not been publicized… https://t.co/ePRJ9DTOsa pic.twitter.com/VNPik1zcyG— Headline USA (@HeadlineUSA) July 8, 2025
Routh, meanwhile, pleaded not guilty and is due to face trial in September.
Given his dangerous intentions and past felonies, it is crucial for justice to prevail in this case to send a message that any threat against a former or sitting president will not be tolerated.
Cooper and Oxendine’s guilty pleas are powerful evidence that federal prosecutors will likely use in the upcoming trial.
