Eugene Vindman, brother of former National Security Council official Alexander Vindman who testified against President Trump during his first impeachment, has won the Democratic nomination for Virginia’s 7th Congressional District. Vindman, a retired Army lieutenant colonel, raised over $5 million during the primary, far surpassing his competitors. He is now positioned to run against a Republican candidate in the general election.
Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene alleges that Democrats want former President Trump dead, suggesting a plan to murder him in jail. Greene’s claims are based on Congressman Bennie Thompson’s bill to strip Secret Service protection from convicted felons, which she interprets as an attempt to expose Trump to violence. Former Trump lawyer Alan Dershowitz has also expressed concerns about the bill’s potential consequences for Trump’s safety.
