A Massachusetts man was arrested for allegedly making threats to kill President Donald Trump and “hang him” from the Statue of Liberty.
The alleged messages from May 2025 to July 2025 were posted to the Facebook account of Andrew D. Emerald of Great Barrington, according to a press release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Massachusetts.
‘We’re gonna hang him from the Statue of Liberty until his pathetic bloated corpse rots off falls in the ocean.’
Emerald was arrested Wednesday morning and is scheduled to appear in court later in the day.
The press release included the eight posts that he allegedly made.
“When I see to it that Trump is put to death. It will be the the day the purpose creation put me here for beyond creating. My daughter is fulfilled. (because what she is destined to do for the world is far greater than mine, taking out the orange menace!)” read an alleged post on May 3.
“Cause and effect. Trump being a monster to humanity caused this family suffering, and they might never choose to have children because of him Affect we’re going to f****** kill Trump on public television so the world sees what we do to f****** monsters and then we’re gonna hang him from the Statue of Liberty until his pathetic bloated corpse rots off falls in the ocean,” read an alleged post from May 15.
In other alleged posts, he threatened to burn down Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence and claimed to have burned down a home previously.
