U.S. Sen. Elissa Slotkin's office said Michigan State Police responded to a bomb threat at her home on Nov. 21, a day after President Donald Trump called her and other Democrats traitors for putting out a video message to members of the military telling them it's their right and duty to disobey illegal orders.
A message posted on social media platform X by a spokesperson for Slotkin, D-Michigan, said the senator wasn't at her home in Holly, Michigan at the time of the threat. State Police searched the premises "and confirmed no one was in danger," the message said.
Slotkin's office didn't provide further details about the threat or Slotkin's whereabouts but referred questions to Michigan State Police, who didn't immediately respond to calls and emails from the Free Press. The social media message added, "U.S. Capitol Police will continue to investigate and hopefully hold accountable those responsible."

Slotkin got round-the-clock protection from Capitol Police on Thursday, Nov. 20, after Trump went on his social media platform Truth Social and blasted Slotkin and five other congressional Democrats for having posted a video in which they urged members of the military to disobey any unlawful orders they might receive.
