A trisquel 12 computer is setup such that all its internet traffic goes over tor. I want to connect an usb atheros ar9271 wifi card to the trisquel 12 computer and have the usb ar9271 wifi card act as a wifi hotspot such that any device which connects to the usb ar9271 wifi card gets to use the trisquel 12 computer's tor internet connection. How can that be done? Thank you.

With NetworkManager, through nmtui you can create a network bridge, add the wired NIC and the wireless adapter to the bridge, and configure the wireless adapter to broadcast an access point with whatever SSID, encryption, password, etc.
