New York woman arrested for alleged threats against President after social media outburst Washington, DC – Monday — A New York woman is in federal custody after allegedly traveling to Washington, D.C., and making online threats against the President of the United States, according to U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeanine Pirro. The woman, identified as Nathalie Rose Jones, is facing two federal charges related to knowingly and willfully threatening the life of the President. Prosecutors say Jones posted threats on Facebook and Instagram, calling the President a terrorist and expressing intent to have him "eliminated." In a video statement released by the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Pirro confirmed that Jones had traveled from New York to the capital, where her threats allegedly intensified. She is now in federal custody and is expected to be prosecuted “to the full extent of the law.” “Threatening the life of the President is one of the most serious crimes,” Pirro said. “Make no mistake—justice will be served.” Officials credited the U.S. Secret Service, with special agents from both New York and Washington, D.C., working together to identify and apprehend the suspect before any violence occurred. Authorities have not disclosed further details about the timing or exact nature of the threats. The arrest marks a rare but serious case of a citizen crossing state lines and allegedly issuing credible threats against the nation’s highest elected office, triggering an immediate response from federal law enforcement. Jones is expected to appear before a federal magistrate judge in Washington, D.C., where she will be formally charged and face detention proceedings.

TRENTON, N.J. – New Jersey Attorney General Matthew J. Platkin, along with 22 other state attorneys general, has filed a motion for a preliminary injunction to prevent the Trump administration from withholding nearly $3 trillion in federal assistance funding, officials announced Friday.

The motion, filed in New York v. Trump, seeks to extend a temporary restraining order issued on January 30 that barred the administration from pausing funding.

Despite the ruling, states argue that critical funds for education, healthcare, infrastructure, and law enforcement remain frozen.

“The lawsuit filed by New Jersey and other states yielded a swift ruling from the Court that the Trump Administration cannot freeze funding for education, basic healthcare, law enforcement, and basic infrastructure,” Platkin said. “We will continue to fight these illegal actions until all funds New Jersey is entitled to are restored.”

The attorneys general argue that without immediate access to federal financial assistance, states could face budget shortfalls affecting Medicaid, Head Start, public safety initiatives, and infrastructure repairs. The filing aims to ensure that the halted funds are promptly disbursed.
