Romanian pleads guilty to swatting calls targeting former US president, lawmakers

A Romanian citizen pleaded guilty on Monday to leading a years-long conspiracy targeting dozens of individuals — including members of Congress, places of worship, and a former United States president — with 'swatting' calls and bomb threats intended to provoke fear and solicit a police response. Thomasz Szabo, 26, pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson in Washington, D.C., to one count of conspiracy and one count of threats and false information regarding explosives. The sentencing is scheduled for Oct. 23. Federal prosecutors say Szabo was the leader of an online community that engaged in bomb threats and 'swatting' — a term that refers to making false reports of an ongoing threat of violence — since late 2020. He was extradited from Romania in November 2024, the DOJ said. 'This defendant led a dangerous swatting criminal conspiracy, deliberately threatening dozens of government officials with violent hoaxes and targeting our nation's security infrastructure from behind a screen overseas,' Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a statement. 'This case reflects our continued focus on protecting the American people and working with international partners to stop these threats at their source,' she continued. Szabo made numerous false reports to law enforcement, including in December 2020, when he threatened to commit a mass shooting at New York City synagogues and, in January 2021, when he threatened to detonate explosives at the U.S. Capitol and to kill then-President-elect Biden, according to a DOJ press release. Members of Szabo's group then engaged in a 'spree of swatting and bomb threats' from Dec. 24, 2023, to early January 2024, the DOJ said. During that time, the group targeted at least 25 members of Congress or their family members; at least six officials who were, either then or previously, serving as a senior Executive Branch official, including multiple Cabinet-level officials; at least 13 senior federal law enforcement officials; and various members of the judiciary, according to the DOJ. The DOJ said the group also targeted at least 27 officials who were serving at the time, or who previously served, as state government officials or their family members; four religious institutions; and multiple members of the media. In recent years, political violence and 'swatting' incidents have been on the rise, in particular targeting members of Congress and other high-profile public figures. Local Georgia news outlets reported that among the officials targeted by Szabo are Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), Georgia Lt. Gov. Burt Jones and Georgia State Sen. Clint Dixon.

DNC taco truck stunt trolling Trump backfires on social media with Vance, GOP: 'Can't fix stupid'

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) parked a custom-wrapped food truck in front of the Republican National Committee headquarters in Washington, D.C., in an effort to troll President Trump over his tariff policies. The stunt received widespread mockery from conservatives. The DNC used the acronym TACO for "Trump Always Chickens Out" to provoke Trump's ire. The phrase was coined by Wall Street analysts when referring to Trump's tariff policies, suggesting Trump will walk back the steep reciprocal tariffs he announced in April. Treasury Secretary Confronts Cbs Host Over Past Tariff Inflation Predictions As Rates Hit 4-Year-low "Trump always chickens out. We're just bringing the tacos to match," DNC Chair Ken Martin told Fox News Digital of the effort. The move did not impress conservatives on social media who highlighted it as an example of Democrats struggling with their messaging during Trump's presidency. Read On The Fox News App "The party that brought you the hugely successful 'Dark Brandon' and 'Republicans are Weird' campaigns are now going all in on 'TACO,'" Washington Free Beacon reporter Chuck Ross posted on X. "We have the lamest opposition in American history," Vice President JD Vance posted on X. "Democrats are doing what they do best: cheap gimmicks, free handouts, and I wouldn't be surprised if they stuck us with the bill," Western Regional & National Hispanic press secretary Christian Martinez posted on X. Trump Warns Court Ruling Against Tariffs Could Lead To 'Economic Ruination' Of Us In a statement to Fox News Digital, NRCC spokesman Mike Marinella mocked the DNC for parking the truck at a church a block away. "Looks like the Democrats took a break from fighting amongst themselves to stage a pathetic stunt," Marinella said. The most embarrassing part? They couldn't even get the location right. You can't fix stupid." "LMFAO," Zach Parkinson, RNC communications director, told Fox News Digital. "A taco truck? Are they going to be giving out free vasectomies again, too? These people are morons. No wonder Democrats' approval rating is at a historic low." Abhi Rahman, the DNC's deputy communications director, took aim at Vance's X post, telling Fox News Digital Democrats know Vance is the "cringiest VP in American history." "We understand that JD Vance, the cringiest VP in American history who cannot order a donut like a normal human being, prefers to take food away from people, including 40 million Americans whose SNAP benefits were just scrapped in the GOP budget," he said. Earlier this week, conservative commentators took aim at a TikTok posted by Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., in which he is filmed eating a taco in an attempt to mock Trump's tariff strategy, and some declared it "cringeworthy."

DOD civilians can now aid DHS with ‘internal immigration enforcement,' per memo

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has authorized Defense Department (DOD) civilian employees to aid Department of Homeland Security (DHS) operations at the southern border and with 'internal immigration enforcement,' in some cases for no pay, according to a new memo released Monday. DOD civilians can now travel to support DHS with the Trump administration's immigration enforcement, though it is unclear whether they would volunteer for such roles or be assigned to DHS activities. The memo did not specify what types of jobs they would be doing. But Hegseth made clear that some individuals might not be paid for their work, noting that assignments 'may be either reimbursable or non-reimbursable.' The document, dated June 1, noted that the under secretary of Defense for personnel and readiness would provide further guidance. 'Protecting our homeland from bad actors and illegal substances has been a focus of the President and of the Secretary of Defense since Day One of this Administration,' chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell said in a statement accompanying the memo. 'Whether on the border or in our communities, allowing qualified DoD civilian employees to support DHS will accelerate the progress already made by Service members in achieving our national security goals.' The Pentagon did not respond to requests for comment from The Hill. The memo comes amid the Trump administration's increasing use of the military to aid in combatting illegal immigration and removing immigrants in the United States without legal status. Last month, DHS requested 20,000 National Guard troops'to help carry out the President's mandate from the American people to arrest and deport criminal illegal aliens,' DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia told The Hill at the time. And just 11 days ago the Pentagon announced it was sending 1,115 additional active-duty troops to the U.S.-Mexico border, bringing the number of service members there close to 10,000. But with Hegseth's latest memo, it appears DOD civilians for the first time would be actively assisting in DHS immigration crackdown efforts, and possibly on their own accord. He notes that in the case of a non-reimbursable detail assignment, it could be authorized 'where the expected benefit of a detail would be comparable to training or development programs that otherwise would be conducted' at the Pentagon's expense. He instructs defense leaders to consider factors 'such as whether the tasks to be carried out by employees during the detail are of a similar nature to the tasks those employees execute in the course of their normal duties; whether the detail would otherwise enhance the skills and further develop the employees professionally;' and the duration of the considered detail, which could impact to Pentagon is the employee is gone too long. DHS reportedly requested DOD civilians be authorized to assist with its immigration enforcement mission. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
