Trump Cabinet Nominees Face Violent Threats
Numerous bomb threats and swatting incidents targeted President-elect Trump’s Cabinet nominees, prompting swift action from law enforcement. The threats, including a pipe bomb threat to Rep. Lee Zeldin and a similar threat to Pete Hegseth, occurred on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. The FBI and other agencies are actively investigating, and officials expressed gratitude for the rapid response. This surge in threats follows a previously noted increase in swatting incidents targeting election officials and polling places in the lead-up to the 2024 election.
