The Justice Department arrested and charged a Florida congressional candidate who called for President Donald Trump to be killed, referring to him as the "Antichrist," according to the Washington Examiner.
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Florida announced Thursday it had charged William Upham, 35, of Jacksonville, a former Marine running for a U.S. House seat, with threatening the president, the Washington Examiner reported.
Federal law makes it a crime to knowingly and willfully threaten to kill, kidnap or inflict bodily harm on the president. Upham could face significant prison time if convicted, the Washington Examiner reported.
