Threatening to k*ll the director of the FBI on social media really isn’t a very smart thing to do. https://t.co/seL6nml6RO

According to the Department of Justice, the FBI interviewed the man who “continued to harass a Detroit FBI agent via phone, threatening to come up to the office.” He even stated that he would “use deadly force against every single one of you government officials—FBI Secret Service will all be f[——] killed.”
A detention hearing will be held on Monday.
