MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — A Miami Beach man is facing two federal charges after U.S. Secret Service agents said he posted videos and messages threatening to kill President Donald Trump, as well as Secretary of State Marco Rubio and former U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi.
It’s not the first time Nathaniel Sanders II has been in the news. In March, the 31-year-old was accused of causing damage to a South Beach smoke shop and was arrested on a criminal mischief charge.
He now faces much more serious allegations: charges of threats against the president and interstate threatening communications.
In a federal criminal complaint, filed on Friday and later made public, investigators said they first began monitoring Sanders on Jan. 28 after he made a post to social media platform X stating, “Imma bomb the f---ing White House you f---ing pedophile.”
Authorities said on Instagram, he posted a serious of videos “complaining and speaking angrily about his hatred” for Trump, Rubio and Bondi.
In an April 10 video, authorities said Sanders posted a video to Instagram saying, “Your fake husband gotta be the biggest pedophile in the f---ing world bro. I don’t know what to do Melania, like, all I got is a gun. It’s the only thing I can use now is a gun.”
Two minutes later, they said he posted a threat against Rubio, mixing English and Spanish.
“One thing about it Marco, b---, yo no tengo miedo de nadie (I’m not scared of anyone) because we all f---ing bleed b----,” agents said he posted. “Like a lot of people be forgetting they bleed just like everybody else. Like when I get my hands on him, I’m gonna hurt him. Simple as that.”
Authorities said a week later, he posted a video calling Trump a “fata-- orange pedophile a-- pervert” and said “imma stomp your f---ing head in imma step on your throat and I’m going to kill you in the worst f---ing way.”
Two days later, on April 19, authorities said Sanders then posted another video making threats against Bondi and the officials in general.
“Pam, when I see you b----, imma put my foot in your f---ing c---, you stupid h--, and imma wear you like a boot,” he said, according to the complaint. “You pedophile a-- b----. Imma kill all y’all pedophiles. I don’t give a f--- y’all. B----, keep playing with me h--. Imma kill you.”
Authorities said he continued to post videos threatening Trump.
Agents said they later went to Sanders’ home, which was listed in a recent local arrest report as an apartment near 15th Terrace and West Avenue on South Beach, to question him about the posts.
Authorities said he called Trump and the other officials “pedophiles” and then “terminated the encounter.”
Records show Sanders was being held in the Federal Detention Center in downtown Miami as of Tuesday.
