Attention attendees of the Principles First Summit: We have received a credible bomb threat from an account claiming to be “Enrique T.” “To honor the J6 hostages.” Yesterday, the recently pardoned leader of the Proud Boys who was sentenced to 22 years in prison for seditious conspiracy and the attack of January 6th came to the Summit and harassed the J6 police who were speaking. Hotel security, private security, and MPD have made the decision to evacuate Summit floor so that the area can be secured. We intend to reconvene and continue with the Summit once the area has been secured. Thank you to the police officers and security teams keeping us safe at this time. The safety of our attendees and speakers is our top priority. We will provide updates as we’re able.

To confirm: The email we received containing the credible bomb threat is from “Enrique T.” but we do not have definitive proof of the email’s origin at this time and so cannot say with certainty who sent the email. A full investigation is underway and we are cooperating with those authorities. We continue to take this threat very seriously.
