US judges who rule against Trump are being barraged with abuse and threats, experts warn

Verbal attacks by Trump and allies are creating a hostile climate that endangers judges' safety, experts say

US judges who have increasingly rebuked the Trump administration's harsh deportation agenda and other Maga policies are facing intense verbal assaults from the president and his allies, which seem to be spurring other dangerous threats against judges, say legal experts and former judges.

The Trump administration's escalating fight with the courts has come as more than 200 lawsuits have challenged executive orders and policies on multiple issues including immigrant deportations, penalizing law firms with links to political foes, agency spending and workforce cuts, and other matters.
