Now it begins -- bomb threat at DNC HQ determined to be unfounded -- this time
(NewsNation) — A bomb threat at the Democratic National Committee sending workers home for the day comes amid a new caution level for politicians in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination.
Capitol Police responded to the bomb threat and determined the threat was not credible, according to a spokesperson.
“This afternoon, there was a bomb threat to DNC HQ that was determined to not be credible by the U.S. Capitol Police,” a DNC spokesperson told NewsNation. “Out of an abundance of caution, Capitol Police is conducting an interior sweep of the building. As DNC Chair Ken Martin has said, political violence in every form has no place in our country. We are grateful to the U.S. Capitol Police and DNC building security for responding quickly and professionally.”
