Rep. Lori Trahan, D-Mass., said Saturday that she and her family had been targeted by a bomb threat and that local police are working with the U.S. Capitol Police to investigate the incident.

“This morning, I was made aware of a bomb threat targeting my family and me. I am grateful to the excellent officers at the Westford Police Department who responded swiftly to make sure we were safe and who are now working with the United States Capitol Police and Massachusetts State Police regarding this incident,” Trahan said in a statement.

“It’s a good time to say the obvious: threats of violence and intimidation have no place in our country,” Trahan added.

Westford Police Department Capt. Michael Breault said the department was made aware of the threat via email Saturday morning, at which point they responded to Trahan’s home and notified the Capitol Police and the Massachusetts State Police.

We're supposed to accept bomb threats just for existing and not kowtowing to Fuckhead 47 and his murderous cabal? Hell no, I'm not playing their game. They can all go get royally fucked. The US is not a terrorist state.
