Federal officials say an Indiana woman has been arrested after traveling from New York to Washington, D.C., to “sacrificially kill” President Donald Trump.
Nathalie Rose Jones, 50, of Lafayette, Indiana, was taken into custody Saturday after allegedly making disturbing threats against the president on Facebook and Instagram.
“I literally told the FBI in five states today that I am willing to sacrificially kill this POTUS by disemboweling him and cutting out his trachea with Liz Cheney and all The Affirmation present,” Jones is accused of writing in an Aug. 6 Facebook post.
In an Aug. 14 Facebook post, Jones allegedly urged U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to “please arrange the arrest and removal ceremony of POTUS Trump as a terrorist on the American People from 10-2pm at the White House on Saturday, August 16th, 2025.”
The Secret Service reportedly arranged to interview Jones on Aug. 15, during which she indicated if she had the opportunity, she would “carry out her mission of killing” the president at “the compound” with a “bladed object.”
The suspect told agents she was looking to “avenge all the lives lost during the COVID-19 pandemic,” referring to Trump as a “nazi” and a “terrorist.”
U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C, Jeanine Pirro said Jones is “charged with two federal crimes for knowingly and willfully threatening to take the life of the president of the United States.”
“She did come from New York to Washington, D.C., and she has been threatening and calling for the removal of the president and even worse as she got to D.C.”
Threatening the life of the President is one of the most serious crimes and one that will be met with swift and unwavering prosecution. Make no mistake—justice will be served.

“Her threats were on Facebook and Instagram and she continues to call the president a terrorist and was working to have him eliminated. She is now in custody, she will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Make no mistake about that,” Pirro added.
“Threatening the life of the president is one of the most serious crimes and one that will be met with swift and unwavering prosecution.”

In one of her photos online, Jones is shown wearing an image of Bob Avakian, founder and chairman of the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA.
