The climate of political violence has been highlighted by notable events, including an assassination attempt against President-elect Donald Trump in July 2024, which left him injured, as well as another attempted assassination charge in September 2024.

The alarming situation escalated when a suspect was arrested near Moskowitz's home in Florida, equipped with a rifle, body armor, and a manifesto filled with antisemitic rhetoric.

On November 8, 2024, U.S. Congressman Jared Moskowitz disclosed that police had alerted him to a potential assassination plot against him.

Authorities further uncovered a target list in the suspect's possession that contained only Moskowitz's name.

Moskowitz, who recently secured reelection for Florida's 23rd congressional district, voiced his concerns regarding the safety of congressional members during their district visits.

This incident underscores the growing fears surrounding political violence in the United States.
