Sen. Chris Murphy and Reps. Jim Himes, Joe Courtney, John Larson, and Jahana Hayes reported bomb threats against their homes, highlighting a disturbing trend of targeted threats against politicians.
Himes expressed gratitude to local law enforcement for their swift response during what should have been a joyous Thanksgiving gathering, underscoring the seriousness of threats against public officials.
The threats against lawmakers appeared to form part of a broader, coordinated campaign aimed at intimidating politicians and public figures following controversial appointments by President-elect Donald Trump.
Law enforcement found no evidence of explosives in any of the incidents, emphasizing that while the threats were real, they were also unfounded in terms of physical danger.
