A Florida security guard is accused of threatening to kill President Trump in retaliation for a US airstrike that killed Iran’s top military general last Friday.
Chauncy Lump, 26, from the Fort Lauderdale area, faces federal charges of threatening to kill the president and remained jailed Thursday with bond set at $100,000, according to court documents filed Wednesday by the Secret Service.
Agent Lucas White wrote that shortly after Trump announced last week that a US airstrike had killed Qassem Soleimani in Iraq in retaliation for plotting numerous terrorist attacks, Lump, under the name “BlackMan vs. America,” began livestreaming a seven-minute video on Facebook.
During that video, agents say, Lump made several threats against the president — who was staying at his Mar-a-Lago club, less than an hour away — while periodically displaying a loaded AK-47 semi-automatic rifle.
Lump had white cream on his face, a towel wrapped like a turban on his head, an apparent shower curtain over his body and Middle Eastern music playing in the background, White wrote of the video that Facebook reported to the authorities Friday.
Lump made several threats against the president, including: “He killed my leader, please tell me where is Donald Trump?” and “I need to find the Donald because if I don’t find him, I am going to have to blow up Broward County,” White wrote.
The affidavit does not say where Lump works as a security guard, but it says he has a concealed weapons permit.
When confronted early Saturday at his home, Lump said he streamed the video in response to Soleimani’s death, but that it was a joke, White wrote. But nowhere in the video did Lump say he was joking and conceded, “I should not have did it in the first place,” White wrote.

Why haven’t those Hollyweird people who’ve threatened Trump been arrested yet?
Puppet. That dude might have broken his own strings. He’s heavy.
Lump had white cream on his face, a towel wrapped like a turban on his head, an apparent shower curtain over his body and Middle Eastern music playing in the background...
He said it was a joke.
It does sound pretty absurd and he also sounds psychotic, joke or not.
He was wearing white-face?
related to Jussies “attackers”?
This reminds me of when my uncle tried to kill FDR after Yamamoto was shot down. (It’s a joke)
“Lump had white cream on his face, a towel wrapped like a turban on his head, an apparent shower curtain over his body and Middle Eastern music playing in the background,”
hmmm. SO, I take it he lost his security guard job too?
Hell....he should have made sure he got arrested in NYS....We pass out Get out of Jail Free Cards NOW.
Maybe he was still mad at the Germans for bombing Pearl Harbor.
Chauncy Lump is the perfect name for a chump.
Imagine the reverse of a white guy in black face threatening Obama? OMG!!
At the end of his 20 year prison term we should tell him that we were only joking, so he’s free to go.
If so then he has millions coming in settlement of discrimination lawsuit. Lawyers salivating.
They showed him on a news report and he appeared to be a guy with too much time on his hands between Mensa meetings. His genius mind has to occupy itself with something.
AK-47s are not semi-automatic. They are full automatic. Were they referring to an SKS, the semi-automatic pre-cursor?
The old “it was just a joke” defense. That sure is being used a lot these days......I’m surprised the Iranians didn’t use that for the shoot-down.....
For all those freepers who forget to close their post with /S, let this be a warning!
Chauncy Lump? I'm sure his attorney will blame the behavior on childhood bullying.
