Marjorie Taylor Greene blasts Trump for 'vicious' attacks amid pipe bomb scare and death threat against her son
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., blasted President Donald Trump on Sunday for his attacks against her in recent weeks, suggesting his rhetoric could be responsible for a recent pipe bomb threat at her construction company
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., blasted President Donald Trump on Sunday for his attacks against her in recent weeks, suggesting his rhetoric could be responsible for a recent pipe bomb threat at her construction company.
Then, hours after her post, the local police said her son had been the target of a death threat.
"President Trump’s unwarranted and vicious attacks against me were a dog whistle to dangerous radicals that could lead to serious attacks on me and my family," Greene wrote Sunday night on X, without providing details about the pipe bomb threat.
On Monday morning, police in Rome, Georgia, where Greene lives, received a pair of emails "in reference to the threat of Assassination to Marjorie Taylor Greene's son," according to an incident report obtained by NBC News.
The two emails targeting her son, Derek Green, were sent from the same address. One said "I am going to assassinate MTG's son" and appeared to name him, though the name was redacted in the police report. The other said: "I already have the plane ticket booked ... MTG's son [redacted] will have his life snuffed out soon ... better watch his back."
