Rhode Island Democratic Rep. Seth Magaziner revealed Friday that he was swatted with a fake bomb threat — after similar phony police reports targeted at least five members of Connecticut’s Democratic congressional delegation and at least 10 of President-elect Donald Trump’s high-profile nominees.
“I was recently notified of a bomb threat targeting me and my family at our home. We are safe and there was no evidence of a bomb on the property,” Magaziner tweeted.
“We would like to extend our deepest gratitude to the Providence Police Department for their effective response.”
The threats targeting Connecticut Democrats were “all signed with ‘MAGA’,” the acronym of Trump’s “Make America Great Again” mantra, Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries of New York added in a separate Friday statement.
Trump’s team, including incoming White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, attorney general-designee Pam Bondi and defense secretary-designee Pete Hegseth, were targeted on Wednesday.
Former Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY), Trump’s nominee to lead the Environmental Protection Agency, said that the threat targeting his family included “a pro-Palestinian themed message.”
Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.), who was among the Thanksgiving targets, said the harassment “appears to be part of a coordinated effort involving multiple members of Congress and public figures.”
The FBI is investigating the spate of bogus calls, which thus far have not resulted in injuries to their targets, which can happen during heavily armed police responses.

Odd that the Providence RI PD is handling the matter. Why not the FBI? I would think this one should be a shoe in to track down.
But it’s not just Dems. The excerpt mentions that Lee Zeldin, a Republican, has also been targeted, and he mentioned a “pro-Palestinian” message. The two named victims are both Jewish. Could it be anti-Israel / pro-Palestinian troublemakers targeting Jews / Zionists?
Someone has already died -

They need to go to Gitmo. Even teenagers - they know right from wrong and need to be removed from society.
Oh BS on them. No one believes them anymore.
I am 99% sure this is being done by leftists.
This is the Juicy Smollet of bomb threats
Meanwhile , the FBI “knows nothing “ about the J6 bomber , even when the J6 bomber stops and talks to the USSS and Capitol Police after placing the bomb. LOL
demonicrats as FAKE victims.
Ten to one the “threats” were sent by demonicRAT activists with the full knowledge of the supposed “victims”.
A lot of that going around. Trumps cabinet were supposedly targeted.
It certainly reeks of false flag.
Agreed.
So sad this resulted in someone’s death.
\/
im sure once the fed tracks all these swatters by their cell phones , like they did the j6ers,
we will see arrests and prosecutions, championed by legacy media, soon.
right ?
;-)
False flag. Is Smollet in town?
“Kinda sounds like a FIB operation.”
Nah, Just a Jussee Smollette hoax.
I agree. We won. We have no reason to threaten them.
“The threats targeting Connecticut Democrats were all signed with ‘MAGA’”
And they probably came from the same people who threatened President Trump’s cabinet picks.
Only people trying to discredit MAGA would do this.
my right hand holds the examination of a possible crime.
my left hand holds all the times democrats have been on record stating how they wished death and destruction on MAGA thoughtholders.
“so, how does it feel now?”
