Former Coast Guard Lieutenant and Sharpshooter Who Identifies as Antifa Arrested For Threatening to Kill Trump

A former Coast Guard Lieutenant and sharpshooter who self-identifies as Antifa was arrested for threatening to kill President Trump, according to CBS News.

CBS News reported:

A former Coast Guard lieutenant and sharpshooter has been arrested for allegedly making threats to kill President Trump.

A 19-page Federal Bureau of Investigation affidavit lists out scores of alleged social media threats by Peter Stinson, who served 33 years in the U.S. Coast Guard through 2021, and also served as a Federal Emergency Management Agency instructor.

The social media posts quoted in charging documents, which span from 2020 to 2025, include online statements that suggested using a gun, a knife and poison against Mr. Trump. In several cases, Stinson allegedly said he didn’t have the skills to kill Mr. Trump himself, but said he’s willing to “serve in a support capacity” or raise money for a “contract hit.”

Federal investigators also allege within 48 hours of the 2024 attempted assassination of Mr. Trump in Butler, Pa., Stinson posted: “Just three inches and today would be a different day,” followed by criticisms of the shooter’s skills.

According to an affidavit, Pete Stinson posted the threats against President Trump to X and BlueSky between 2020 and 2025.

Stinson used a series of code names for Trump including “the orange,” “orange mf,” “orange thug,” “Krasnov,” “tfg,” “one ear,” or an orange emoji.
