President Donald Trump had his life threatened by a former Kentucky police officer now facing federal charges, according to an extensive criminal complaint.

Former Bowling Green police officer Andrew Long Ryan, 37, was indicted by a federal grand jury Wednesday on two counts of making threats against the president, according to U.S. Attorney Don Cochran of the Middle District of Tennessee.

Ryan now of Greenbrier, Tenn., was in federal custody Thursday. He was initially charged in a criminal complaint on Monday for posts he made on Facebook and Twitter about Trumpon May 28-29, according to court records.

In a lengthy Facebook post on May 28, Ryan said he had "warned the President of the United States of death if he doesn't comply with a directive I've given him," according to the criminal complaint.

A post made on May 29 read: "This will all make sense soon," according to a Secret Service agent's affidavit filed in court. The post continued, warning those who expressed concern over his Facebook remarks to "say it to my face or shut your mouth." The item ended with three words: "Death is coming."

A stunt. A real assassin never announces their action.

Does anybody read articles?

This guy was a policeman for 1 year only, and that was 12yrs ago in 2006.

His Dad says he nuts and he been off his meds. He was also institutionalized for being insane.

This has nothing to do with his short stint as a policeman.

What is ‘almost a message from God?’”

Could it be ... oh, I don’t know ... SATAN?

“Threatening the president’s life is a serious crime “

It used to be. Now that’s the case only if the President is a Dem. Otherwise, it’s not a problem. If it were true, there’d be hundreds locked up who aren’t.
