‘Prepare To Die’: Man Charged With Threats Against Trump’s Top Intel Official

The Department of Justice (DOJ) announced Monday it charged a Georgia man with sending violent threats against the head of the Trump administration’s intelligence community.

Aliakbar Mohammad Amin, 24, allegedly sent threats to Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and her family over text and social media posts, the DOJ said in a press release. The announcement comes after a week full of charges related to violent animosity against Republicans and the Trump administration.

“Death to America means death to America literally, Tulsi is living on borrowed time,” Amin said in a text message to an unknown recipient, according to the DOJ.

“The home you two own . . . is a legitimate target and will be hit at a time and place of our choosing,” he allegedly texted regarding Gabbard’s family.

“Prepare to die, you, Tulsi, and everyone you hold dear,” Amin allegedly said in another text. “America will burn.”

Amin’s social media posts included an “image of a firearm pointed at a photograph of DNI Gabbard and her husband,” the DOJ alleged.

Federal agents found a firearm when searching Amin’s home, the press release said. The FBI reportedly arrested Amin Friday night.

The DOJ did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the 🏢Daily Caller News Foundation
