Trump's nominee for U.N. ambassador, Rep. Elise Stefanik, was among nearly a dozen members of President-elect Trump's incoming cabinet who were recently targeted with bomb threats and swatting.

Stefanik's office posted a statement saying that she was with her son and husband, driving home from Washington, when they were informed of a bomb threat to their home.

Fox News Digital reported that John Ratcliffe and Pete Hegseth were also among those targeted. Incoming White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox in a statement, "In response, law enforcement acted quickly to ensure the safety of those who were targeted. President Trump and the entire Transition team are grateful for their swift action."
