Nominees to Donald Trump’s Cabinet were subjected to bomb threats and swatting attacks this week
The controversies around Donald Trump’s Cabinet picks have spilled outside of the Capitol building and into the daily lives of the nominees.
Trump transition team spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said that several of Trump’s executive appointees were targeted with bomb threats and «swatting» incidents, in which people call in a fake emergency that would require a heavily armed police response.
“Last night and this morning, several of President Trump’s Cabinet nominees and Administration appointees were targeted in violent, unAmerican threats to their lives and those who live with them,” Leavitt shared on Wednesday.
