Federal authorities say a Brooklyn man threatened to murder a U.S. senator for criticizing President Donald Trump and supporting reproductive rights.

Prosecutors said Wednesday that Michael Brogan, 51, was charged with threatening to kill a federal official.

Authorities did not identify the senator.

Brogan�s defense attorney declined to comment.

Brogan, 51, was released from custody on $50,000 bail with home detention and ordered to wear an ankle monitor as he awaits trial.

A criminal complaint filed in U.S. District Court says Brogan called the senator�s office in Washington, D.C., earlier this month and threatened to �put a bullet in ya.�

The complaint says Capitol Police traced the call to Brogan�s residence on East 31st Street in Marine Park.

Brogan told the NY Daily News he made the call in �the heat of the moment� after watching a clip of the senator online.

�Not to trivialize it, I wish in retrospect I didn�t do it, but I don�t think it�s that big,� Brogan told the paper.

�I�m going to put a bullet in ya. When I�m in D.C. and you�re there, I got your [EXPLETIVE] mark you stupid [EXPLETIVE],� he said, according to a criminal complaint. �You and your constant lambasting of President Trump. Oh, reproductive rights, reproductive rights. You know what? I�m cursing and I�m in sin because of people like you, OK?�

He continued, �If I saw you, I�d snuff your stupid [EXPLETIVE][EXPLETIVE]. I�d put a [EXPLETIVE] bullet in you. You watch your [EXPLETIVE]. If I see you on the streets, I�m gonna [EXPLETIVE] light you up with [EXPLETIVE] bullets.�
