A man has confessed to making violent threats targeting President Donald Trump and agents of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), as revealed by a recent statement from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of West Virginia.
Earlier this year, an indictment accused Cody Lee Smith of threatening to commit acts of rape and murder against President Trump, as well as targeting Trump’s supporters and ICE officials with threats of violence.
The news release on Thursday indicated that he faces a potential sentence of up to five years for threatening the president, and an additional 10 years behind bars for threats directed at ICE agents.

The indictment outlined the alarming nature of these threats, including a mention possibly referring to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The document states that Smith sent a direct message to Donald Trump Jr. on Instagram that declared, “I’m going to rape your worthless father while Benjamin netanyacuck sits in the oval CUCK throne and watches with his jugular cut while the life leaves his pathetic eyes and then after I’m done your getting raped.”

The indictment reports that Smith asserted in an Instagram post, “Donald j Trump likes little boys and little girls and is an Israeli asset he deserves to be raped and murdered @REALDONALDTRUMP @donaldjtrumpjr I will kill you b[—-] a[–] dad.”
It also alleges that the man posted, “If I see a single trump supporter I don’t care the relation[,] I don’t care their age[,] I don’t care if they are mentally handicap[,] I’m murdering them in front of their entire family[,] same goes to the first war supporter or service member who’s willing to bootlick.”
He called the ICE tip line and “threatened to kill ICE agents in Clarksburg, West Virginia, the tip line operator, and the operator’s family,” the indictment alleged.
