LEXINGTON, Ky. – A Fayette County man is facing federal charges after allegedly threatening President Donald Trump on social media.

According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Eastern District of Kentucky, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) received information that 23-year-old Kadrioan Serainity Santiago, of Lexington, was posting politically violent threats on Instagram between January 2026 and March 2026.

The FBI says Santiago threatened to “cut President Donald Trump’s face with a razor blade, pull his skin off and feed the skin to stray dogs.”

Santiago also allegedly threatened to kill the next law enforcement officer he encountered, encouraged people to shoot ICE agents and threatened to kill ICE agents himself.

The FBI says Santiago posted that he is “filled with political violence” in January.

Santiago was arrested in Garrard County following a traffic stop on April 14.

During the Garrard County Sheriff’s Department’s investigation, they located multiple weapons, including a handgun, an AR-15-style rifle, an additional long gun, multiple magazines, a Kevlar helmet, gas masks, and various survival gear.

The investigation is ongoing and is led by the FBI.
