Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer revealed Monday that three of his New York offices were targeted with bomb threats, with an email subject line that read “MAGA.”
The chilling messages alleged that the “2020 election was rigged” and were directed at Schumer’s (D-NY) offices in Rochester, Binghamton, and Long Island, according to the minority leader.
“Local and federal law enforcement responded immediately and are conducting full security sweeps,” Schumer said in a statement. “Everyone is safe, and I am grateful for their quick and professional response to ensure these offices remain safe and secure for all New Yorkers.”
“As I have said many times, these kinds of violent threats have absolutely no place in our political system. No one—no public servant, no staff member, no constituent, no citizen—should ever be targeted for simply doing their job.”
