A Florida man has been arrested for making violent threats against former Vice President Kamala Harris and Rep. Ilhan Omar in a series of racist TikTok videos, including claims that he would use a sniper rifle to assassinate Harris.

On February 11 and 12, 2025, 59-year-old Franklin Jarrell allegedly posted multiple threatening messages on TikTok, according to Law and Crime. His posts targeted Harris and Omar with racist slurs and explicit death threats, prompting an FBI and Secret Service investigation.

Jarrell has a history of making inflammatory remarks online and allegedly holds deep-seated animosity toward Harris, as confirmed by his father.

Jarrell's TikTok threats, which included explicit death threats and racial slurs, were flagged by federal agencies, leading the Secret Service to contact him on February 18. During the call, Jarrell confirmed his account but became hostile, threatening the agent and boasting about his arsenal of weapons.

COPS: Florida Man Threatened To Kill Harris And Omar
March 10, 2025

Law & Crime reports:

A Florida man has been arrested for threatening former vice president Kamala Harris and Rep. Ilhan Omar, according to law enforcement. Franklin Jarrell, 59, stands accused of one count each of sending a threatening communication in interstate commerce and making threats against a federal official, according to a federal criminal complaint filed in the Middle District of Florida late last month.

The threats in question were allegedly made on TikTok and reported by the FBI to the Secret Service, the charging document says. The complaint catalogues those comments laundry list-style: “I’m going to blow your brains out you won’t go back home not unless you’re in the box you’ll never see me coming we’re real rednecks not want to be n–––––– or whatever you are we’re going to kill you.”

Jacksonville’s NBC affiliate reports:

A Secret Service agent and JSO officer called Jarrell and requested an interview. Jarrell told them he posted the threats, the report says, and he stated he would beat up the agent. The report states Jarrell became more “verbally aggressive” and threatened to kick the agent’s teeth in. Jarrell told the agent he had a house full of weapons and the agent “would never leave the property” if he showed up. Then, Jarrell hung up.

Jarrell called the agent 23 times and left 19 voicemails in a more than two-and-a-half-hour period, the report states. In the voicemails, he threatened to attack the agent, kill the agent and kill Harris.
