( Post Millennial )

A Georgia man was arrested on federal charges Friday for making threats against President Donald Trump during a live TikTok broadcast. Jauan Rashun Porter faces charges of “knowingly and willfully making a threat against the President of the United States,” according to a press release from the US Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Georgia.

Porter’s comments during the livestream included, “So there’s only one way to make America great and that is putting a bullet in between Trump’s eyes,” “I’m gonna kill Donald Trump. I’m gonna put a 7.62 bullet inside his forehead,” and he later declared, “I’m gonna watch him bleed out and I’m gonna watch him die… I’m gonna do that.”

US Attorney Theodore S. Hertzberg described the allegations as “serious and required a swift, decisive, and collaborative response.” He added, “We do not tolerate threats against public officials or law enforcement officers, and Porter will now face the consequences of his actions.”

It is alleged that on July 26, 2025, Porter allegedly joined a TikTok livestream about Trump captioned “Alligator Alcatraz,” commenting: “So there’s only one way to make America great and that is putting a bullet in between Trump’s eyes.” When asked by the livestream host about federal agents coming to his door, Porter allegedly stated, “I’m gonna kill them too.”

Porter was taken into custody and is currently detained pending further proceedings. During a search of Porter’s apartment, authorities found pistol ammunition, two pipes, and tannerite, an explosive. "Porter has prior convictions for terroristic threats, influencing a witness, mutiny in a penal institution, drug possession, battery, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and domestic violence," the DOJ said, noting that Porter is currently on probation.

Federal authorities are investigating the extent of the threat and whether any additional criminal activity may have been planned.
