A man is accused of threatening to kill President Donald Trump and feed his face to “stray dogs,” according to prosecutors.
Kadrioan Santiago, 23, of Berea, Kentucky, allegedly made the threats while collecting weapons, including rifles and other tactical equipment, authorities said. His threats were not limited to Trump alone, but also included ICE agents, according to a Justice Department press release.
“Under the username ‘kadi_skating’, Santiago was posting a series of politically violent threats and statements on Instagram between January 2026 and the end of March 2026,” the statement said. The statement was included.
“Among other things, Santiago threatened to cut the President Donald TrumpHe cuts his face with a razor, skins him and feeds his skin to stray dogs; threatened to kill the next member of law enforcement who interacted with him; encouraged others to shoot at ICE agents; and threatened to kill ICE agents himself.”
Allegedly “no one was spared”. In January of this year, he shared: “I am filled with political violence.
The complaint alleges that a March 2 post read, “LOAD A GRENADE IN THEIR AHH AND EXPLODE IT.” “I will defend your gay rights with my guns.”

In a separate post, he allegedly targeted Trump, writing: “@potus I better never get my hands on you,” according to court documents.
“I’m actually going to drag a razor blade up your face, slide it under your skin, and skin you, cook you, and feed you to the stray dogs,” Santiago allegedly wrote in a March 27 post. Other alleged threats posted online include “Death to the American nazi regime” and “American people NEED to start shooting into the necks, legs, and arms of ICE agents.”
Santiago allegedly began uploading images of his expanding arsenal of weapons starting in March this year.
“Registered car, unregistered firearms,” Santiago said in a March 23 post that included a photo of what appeared to be an “assault firearm” in someone’s lap, according to court documents.
Police said the man was caught during a traffic stop on April 14.

The sheriff’s office said officers discovered a significant amount of weapons on his person, including “a handgun, an AR-15 style rifle, an additional long gun, multiple magazines, a Kevlar helmet, gas masks, and various survival gear.”
Garrard County Sheriff Willie Skeens issued a statement expressing serious concerns:
“The nature of these federal charges, coupled with the weapons and tactical equipment found, is extremely concerning,” and “Fortunately, no one was injured during this arrest.”
Santiago is expected to appear in court Monday for detention and a preliminary hearing.
