It's not "imminent lawless action" if "him" isn't present at the place it's being yelled.

The Brandenburg case was exactly this. Clarence Brandenburg advocated marching on Washington and killing the president, the supreme court, and congress at his KKK rally. The court found that it was protected speech because there was not imminent lawless action.
