Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., said that her local police department received an emailed bomb threat targeting her Monday but that she is safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Rome Police Department\u2019s Assistant Chief of Police received an email containing a bomb threat directed towards me. I\u2019m so grateful to every member of the Rome Police Department for your swift and professional response in ensuring my safety,\u201d Greene said on X<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Greene\u2019s office said in a statement<\/a> that Greene\u2019s local police department in Rome, Georgia, dispatched its bomb squad to her home to ensure there was no danger. Greene included a video in her post on X of what appeared to be a member of the bomb squad checking her mailbox for an explosive device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rome police spokesperson Kelly Madden said the department deployed the multiagency Floyd County Bomb Squad to Greene’s home and turned the investigation over to the FBI after it ruled out an immediate danger. The FBI confirmed that it was assisting with the investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “We have no further information at this time, as it is an ongoing investigation,” it said in a statement. “The FBI remains vigilant and continues to work closely with our state and local partners to mitigate threats to the public, including threats to specific persons.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n U.S. Capitol Police did not immediately respond to a request for comment Monday. The threat against Greene follows several ultimately false threats against members of Congress. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A bomb threat<\/a> targeted Rep. Lori Trahan, D-Mass., on Saturday, and at least seven other Democratic lawmakers were notified of threats targeting their homes<\/a> on Thanksgiving Day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Greene\u2019s office\u2019s statement included screenshots revealing the contents of the emailed threat, which said there was a pipe bomb in her mailbox. NBC News has not independently verified the screenshots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Greene has been the target<\/a> of multiple<\/a>\u2002swatting incidents<\/a> since she joined Congress in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
