Las Vegas man charged after making antisemitic threats to Nevada senator

Zoë Richards is the evening politics reporter for NBC News.

A Nevada man has been charged after allegedly leaving a series of antisemitic, profanity-laced voicemails at the office of a senator in his home state. John Anthony Miller of Las Vegas was arrested Thursday and appeared in federal court a day later in connection with the one count of threatening a federal official, the Justice Department said in a news release. A preliminary hearing in the case is scheduled for Nov. 13, before U.S. Magistrate Judge Elayna J. Youchah.

Jacky Rosen of Nevada is the sole Jewish U.S. senator serving in the state. Her office did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Monday. Rosen has been a prominent voice in the Senate calling for support for Israel amid its brutal war with Hamas. After traveling to Israel earlier this month, she urged the Senate to approve supplemental defense funding to the country and to quickly confirm Jack Lew as U.S. ambassador.
