Four Connecticut House Democrats reported receiving bomb threats at their homes on Thanksgiving Day. Representatives Jim Himes, Jahana Hayes, Joe Courtney, and John Larson were targeted, but the threats were determined to be unfounded. This incident follows similar warnings issued to nearly a dozen of President-elect Trump's Cabinet nominees and other appointees the night before.
Rep. Himes, who serves as the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, stated that a bomb threat was directed at his home while celebrating Thanksgiving with his family. Fortunately, law enforcement agencies swiftly responded, including the United States Capitol Police, Greenwich Police Department, and Stamford Police Department, and no bomb was found.
