Did Trump's Attacks on Judge Trigger Threats?

Former President Donald Trump's Thanksgiving social media tirade against New York Attorney General Letitia James, Judge Arthur Engoron, and his law clerk may have triggered a deluge of threats against the judge and his clerk, according to a court filing. The judge, who has clashed with Trump during the civil fraud trial, has reportedly been the target of credible threats for months. The law clerk has received hundreds of threatening and harassing voicemail messages and has been subjected to daily doxing, along with harassing and antisemitic comments. The threats have been transcribed into over 275 single-spaced pages. The court filing seeks to reinstate the limited gag order against Trump. It is unclear if the threats will have any impact on the ongoing trial, but they highlight the potential consequences of the former president's inflammatory rhetoric.
