Rep. Greene Safe After Bomb Threat

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) confirmed her safety following a bomb threat that was emailed to the Rome Police Department and subsequently investigated by law enforcement. The threat's email was traced back to Russia, prompting the involvement of the FBI after the Floyd County Bomb Squad ruled out immediate danger at Greene's residence. Tragically, an officer from the bomb squad was involved in a fatal traffic accident en route to the scene, resulting in the death of another driver. Greene expressed gratitude towards the police for their swift response to ensure her safety. This incident adds to a series of threats faced by several of President-elect Trump's nominees, including Rep. Elise Stefanik and former Rep. Matt Gaetz, who have also been targeted by “swatting” incidents. Law enforcement continues to enhance safety measures for those targeted in this wave of threats.
