Summary
Hateful emails and phone calls hit a Minnesota school serving Somali families after President Donald Trump shared a video of its kindergartners on Truth Social this week.
The clip clearly showed the children's faces, and replies to Trump's post included anti-Muslim abuse, with one user calling the students “future terrorists.”
Somali community leaders described the episode as an escalation of political and rhetorical attacks during Trump's second term, extending online hostility into direct threats against a school.
