A 21-year-old man has been charged by Michigan state prosecutors with threatening to kill President Joe Biden, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
He claimed to “be the catalyst” for an American revolution. Sadly, he sounds like he is just a far-right nut job.
The office of Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel charged Joshua Docter with threatening terrorism and using a computer to commit a crime. Both counts can be sentenced up to 20 years in prison.

Reuters reports:
The suspect turned himself in on Monday and faced a judge on Tuesday, Nessel’s office said in a statement.
A lawyer for Docter could not immediately be identified.
The FBI, which initiated the investigation, received a tip that Docter posted threats on the social media site iFunny, and the case was later taken over by Michigan State Police, the statement said.
“Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel has charged a Holland man with crimes for making death threats against President Joe Biden, U.S. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer,” the statement read.
“In those posts, Docter stated he would use a gun to shoot and kill the elected officials and would ‘be the catalyst’ for a new American revolution. Docter also had information on how to make a bomb and where to find the necessary materials on his smart phone,” it continued.
