A man from North Carolina is facing allegations of making threats against former President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and their political allies. Prosecutors claim he expressed his intentions on Facebook, stating he wanted to conduct public executions broadcasted globally, according to federal authorities.

In a post dated November 12, Christian Daniels purportedly warned, “Prepare for yalls public execution!” This message, which was captured by the U.S. Department of Justice and included in a federal complaint released on Wednesday, allegedly tagged Trump and Vance. Daniels also mentioned figures such as Elon Musk, Erika Kirk—the widow of Turning Point USA’s Charlie Kirk—and the wife of FBI Director Kash Patel.

On November 13, Daniels allegedly targeted Musk and other “billionaires in the world” in another post, stating, “I PLAN ON RIPPING THE SKIN FROM YOUR MUSCLES,” as reported by the DOJ.

In a separate post on the same day, Daniels is accused of questioning Trump directly, asking, “Donald J. Trump quick question? Are you scared?” He continued, “I hope so man. Imma personally do the medieval torture on you! It’ll be GLORIOUS.”

The Department of Justice linked Daniels to these posts using his page ID number and internet records. His Facebook account, operating under the alias Clyde Franco, has multiple credit cards tied to it, all belonging to Christian Daniels, who also goes by the name Chris.

Daniels also allegedly listed his actual date of birth and other personal info that helped identify him, according to prosecutors.

“An FBI agent interviewed Daniels’ mother at her residence in Kannapolis, North Carolina,” the criminal complaint explains. “Daniels’ mother explained that he was diagnosed in his youth with Bipolar 1 Disorder with rapid cycling, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, and Anxiety Spectrum Disorder. She stated that Daniels had been involuntarily committed before. She identified the Clyde Franco Facebook account as Daniels’ account and informed the agents that Daniels lives on Elizabeth Avenue in Salisbury, North Carolina.”

After being allegedly outed by his mom, federal agents learned that Daniels lives in “a trailer with all the windows knocked out,” per the complaint. His mother said that “he has been known to carry a machete,” according to prosecutors.

“She expressed concern that Daniels was capable of carrying out a violent attack,” the complaint alleges. The mom said she wasn’t aware of any firearms in Daniels’ possession, and a “database check” revealed no firearms registered to him.

Daniels was charged with making a “threat to president of U.S.” and for “communication containing a threat to injure another in interstate commerce,” according to court records. Authorities learned over the course of their investigation that Daniels had also allegedly threatened to kill a neighbor of his, who accused him of verbally stating he wanted to do so.

A North Carolina magistrate judge issued an involuntary commitment order for Daniels on Nov. 20.

Daniels’ Facebook page and posts were still up as of Thursday.

“DEATH COMING SOON TO ALL YALL!” he allegedly wrote on Nov. 17. “See yall soon!”
