North Carolina senator faces death threats and harassment

Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina has faced significant harassment and death threats, as revealed in a memo from his office. The threats have increased since Donald Trump's return to office, with voicemails expressing violent discontent towards Tillis and his staff. A handwritten letter received by Tillis' office warned of potential violence, stating that people would come "filled with rage." Protests at his office have escalated, with attempts to break in, prompting law enforcement to advise remote work for staff on protest days. Tillis has a history of threats against him, including a recent arrest of a U.S. citizen abroad for threatening to kill him. In response to safety concerns, many Republicans are now opting for virtual town halls instead of in-person meetings.
