Utah man Craig Deleeuw Robertson is shot dead by the FBI in raid after posting on Facebook 'credible' Joe Biden death threats ahead of president's visit to Salt Lake City

A Utah man has been shot dead by the FBI during a deadly raid following years of sickening death threats against Joe Biden and other politicians.

Craig Robertson, 75, was gunned down on his doorstep by agents in Provo - an hour from Salt Lake City - after they were alerted to his posts about the president.

Messages posted on what is believed to be his Facebook page on Tuesday included bloodthirsty content about how he'd brutally murder the commander in chief.

The page, which posted pro-Trump comments, also had more death threats against Biden's brother, Kamala Harris as well as Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg.

Meanwhile he shared numerous pictures of the heavy duty weapons he had stacked in a huge gun cache in his house, including sniper rifles and AR-15-style guns.

The FBI raided his home in the early hours of Wednesday morning, just hours before Biden was due in the city for a series of speeches and visits.

Special agents attempted to serve arrest and search warrants at Robertson's house in Provo but ended up shooting and killing him at around 6:15 am.

An FBI official said the raid was in connection with an investigation into alleged threats against President Joe Biden and other political figures in previous weeks.

The threats involved plans to take physical action and the FBI deemed them 'credible.'

Court documents show Robertson, who is a self-described 'MAGA TRUMPER,'  threatened to 'inflict bodily harm' on Biden during his visit to Utah.

He was facing charges of interstate threats, threats against the president and influencing, and impeding and retaliating against federal law enforcement officers by threat.

In a social media post he sent on August 7, Robertson allegedly wrote: 'I hear Biden is coming to Utah. Digging out my hold Ghillie suit and cleaning the dust off the M24 sniper rifle.'

'Welcome Baffoon in Chief!,' he concluded the post, which was written in bold black letters on a pink and purple swirly background.

Robertson had a custom woodworking business but did not renew his license after it expired last year, according to state records

Biden is expected to arrive in Salt Lake City on Wednesday afternoon and stay overnight.

Robertson's Facebook is filled with dark messages, mainly threatening violence toward Biden and other prominent democrats - as well as images glorifying guns.

Just two days ago, Robertson posted: 'Hey FBI, you still monitoring my social media? Checking so I can be sure to have a loaded gun handy in case you drop by again.'

In March, Robertson allegedly also threatened to murder New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who was overseeing the criminal investigation into former President Donald Trump.

'I'll be waiting in the courthouse parking garage with my suppressed Smith &Wesson M&P 9mm to smoke a radical fool prosecutor that should never have been elected,' he posted at the time. 'BYE, BYE, TO ANOTHER CORRUPT B______!!!' 

He has also insulted California Governor Gavin Newsom this week, in a bizarre post that reads: 'Gavin Newsom has been drinking toilet water for years especially right after his old lady takes a dump.'

The investigation began in April and the US Secret Services became aware of it in June

The majority of his social media posts revolve around the president or his son Hunter - many include violent and highly specific physical threats.

'In my dream I see Joe Biden's body in a dark corner of a DC parking garage with his head severed and lying in a huge puddle of blood. Hoorah,' he wrote in one disturbing example.

For months, Robertson has posted daily threats on what is believed to be his Facebook page, revealing his obsession with the president and fantasies about hurting him. 

Another reads: 'There is only one creature in this universe I hate more than Joe Biden. It's Lucifer, Biden's brother!'  

While conducting surveillance on Robertson's home on March 19, a special agent attempted to speak with Robertson about his posts, according to Fox13.

Robertson replied, 'I said it was a dream!' and told the agent to come back with a warrant.

The investigation began in April and the US Secret Services became aware of it in June.

'The FBI takes all shooting incidents involving our agents or task force members seriously,' the FBI said in a statement. 

'In accordance with FBI policy, the shooting incident is under review by the FBI's Inspection Division. As this is an ongoing matter, we have no further details to provide.'

Robertson had a custom woodworking business but did not renew his license after it expired last year, according to state records. 

On LinkedIn, Robertson said he worked for 45 years as a structural steel and welding inspector before retiring and starting his business, saying he specialized in 'custom designs.'
