The Daily Fuckup

Federal authorities arrested Robert Herrera, 52, of San Antonio, on July 10, 2025, after what prosecutors described as an alleged Facebook threat involving President Donald Trump. The Justice Department publicly announced the arrest the next day, July 11, 2025, in a release from the U.S. attorney’s office in the Western District of Texas.

According to prosecutors, the post at issue appeared in response to a July 10 Facebook post from a San Antonio news outlet about Trump’s planned visit to the Texas Hill Country. The complaint says Herrera wrote, “I won’t miss,” alongside a photo of Trump after the July 13, 2024 assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. Prosecutors also said another user replied, “you won’t get the chance, I promise,” and that Herrera answered, “I’ll just come for you,” while posting an image of an assault rifle and loaded magazines. Those allegations were part of a criminal complaint and had not been proven in court at the time of the arrest announcement.

The Justice Department later said Herrera pleaded guilty on August 20, 2025, in the same case. That pleading came after the arrest and does not change the basic timeline: an arrest on July 10, a public DOJ announcement on July 11, and a later guilty plea.

The case centers on a federal threat allegation, not on any resolved finding about motive or intent beyond what prosecutors laid out in court filings. For now, the record is limited to the complaint, the arrest, and the later guilty plea announced by the Justice Department.
