Brooke Rollins, Trump's pick to lead the Department of Agriculture, was among the cabinet picks targeted by bomb threats and "swatting attacks," she said Wednesday. Rollins said on X, formerly Twitter, that her family had been targeted as part of a wider series of threats made to cabinet nominees and appointees.

Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds said she looks forward to working with Brooke Rollins, while U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley said he hopes he can vote to confirm her.

A Texas native, Ms. Rollins worked in the first Trump White House and has also led two influential conservative think tanks.
