"Michigan State Police responded to Senator Slotkin's home in response to a bomb threat. The Senator wasn't home at the time. MSP searched the property and confirmed no one was in danger. The post continued, Senator Slotkin is deeply grateful for the swift and professional response by Oakland County and Michigan State Police. U.S. Capitol Police will continue to investigate and hopefully hold accountable those responsible."
"Capitol Police came to us and said, We're gonna put you on 24/7 security,' she said. We've got law enforcement out in front of my house. I mean, it changes things immediately. And leadership climate is set from the top. And if the president is saying you should be hanged, then we shouldn't be surprised when folks on the ground are going to follow suit and say even worse."
"Earlier this week, the Democratic lawmakers raised Trump's ire after releasing a video telling the military and intelligence communities they had an obligation to refuse illegal orders. Trump lashed out at the lawmakers in a series of unprecedented Truth Social posts, accusing them of SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, which he reminded them is punishable by DEATH! Although the White House has walked back Trump's threat, saying he did not want to see members of Congress actually executed,"
Sen. Elissa Slotkin's home in Michigan received a bomb threat while she was away; Michigan State Police searched the property and confirmed no one was in danger. Slotkin thanked Oakland County and Michigan State Police and said U.S. Capitol Police will continue investigating. The threat followed a video by six Democratic lawmakers urging military and intelligence personnel to refuse illegal orders, which prompted President Trump to post on Truth Social accusing them of 'seditious behavior' and saying it is 'punishable by death.' Slotkin said hundreds of death threats led her to request 24/7 security and that leadership sets a dangerous climate.
