President Trump's Cabinet nominees and Administration appointees have faced a disturbing wave of bomb threats and swatting attacks, prompting an investigation by the FBI. The targeted threats represent an alarming trend in political violence aimed at undermining democracy.
Karoline Leavitt, spokesperson for Trump's transition team, condemned the attacks as violent and un-American, emphasizing the swift actions taken by law enforcement to protect those targeted and the gratitude expressed by Trump and his team.
Among those targeted were key figures such as Elise Stefanik, Matt Gaetz, and Lori Chavez-DeRemer, who are poised to take on significant roles in the Trump administration, highlighting the risks associated with public service in a politically charged climate.
Law enforcement is actively investigating whether additional incoming officials, including Trump's chief of staff Susie Wiles and Pam Bondi, were also targeted, reflecting the extensive nature of these threats and the pervasive concern for the safety of public officials.
