Pete Hegseth, Donald Trump’s defense secretary pick, and Elise Stefanik, who has been tapped as US’ ambassador to the United Nations, were among several cabinet nominees and appointees of the president-elect’s incoming administration who were targeted with bomb threats and so-called “swatting”. The homes of Howard Lutnick, Trump’s choice for commerce secretary and Lee Zeldin, the Environmental Protection Agency pick, were threatened. A spokesperson for Trump confirmed threats against some of his cabinet picks but did not initially give any names or say how many people had received threats. The FBI then later said it was involved in investigating the incidents. n18oc_world n18oc_crux
