"When We capture Grandpa Biden We will all severely beat him to the point of death as for Mrs. Harris she will be bent over and Anally raped by my rifle barrel," it reads.
It also threatens Biden and Harris "both will be executed on National Television [sic]."
"We have a list of homes and addresses by your election signs," the letter claims.
"We are the ones with the scary guns, we are the ones your children have nightmares about."
"We will not let Biden/Harris turn are [sic] country into a Communist wasteland," it also says.
"If Biden/Harris Want A War [sic] then they will get one, of course that means Black lives matter and Antifa."
