This federal judge ruled against Trump. Then the death threats rolled in | 60 Minutes
Summary
A federal judge who ruled against President Trump has received death threats, highlighting a troubling pattern that legal experts say stems from the president's public criticism of the bench. Trump's statements about judges have intensified concerns among the judiciary about their personal safety and the politicization of the courts. The White House countered that the president "understands the dangers of political violence," but the judge's experience underscores the real consequences when high-profile figures target members of the legal system. Other federal judges have reported similar threats following Trump's remarks about cases involving him.
