U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois has shared ugly hate messages that he’s received over his participation in the Jan. 6 committee that is pressing its probe of the attack on the Capitol.
The GOP lawmaker says disturbing messages targeting him, his family and his staff have escalated in recent days and weeks as the House probe reveals damaging new details about former President Donald Trump’s role in the attempted insurrection.
“Threats of violence over politics has increased heavily in the last few years,” Kinzinger said. “But the darkness has reached new lows.”
