Nassau County police on Thursday have responded to a bomb threat at the home of Judge Arthur Engoron, the judge presiding over former President Donald Trump’s civil fraud case, a source with direct knowledge of the situation told NBC News.
The threat comes hours before closing arguments in the trial are scheduled to begin, with those arguments still expected to proceed.
A bomb squad was called to Engoron’s home and was investigating Thursday morning; it is unclear whether Engoron was home at the time.
Been hearing about threats to the judge for some time now. Can’t wait till we start seeing these people charged and prosecuted.
Cowards do their research and remain mostly anonymous. There has been a rash of online bomb threats lately and very few people have been held accountable.
Perhaps they should hold the original source accountable for stochastic terrorism. If twice is coincidence and three times is a pattern, what is it called when it happens every single time?
The new world order.
This should have been DAY ONE where apparently everyone in the world except the judges recognized this was going to happen. Remember that piss-poor “gag order” that prevented trump from talking about members of the court AFTER he’d already said a bunch of incendiary things and even then he continued to do so; so they fined him like twenty cents? The one that got suspended by a circuit judge who was 100 years old and eventually was persuaded that yeah maybe it should stay?
Fuck. I don’t know if these guys are just right-wing idiots themselves who thought maybe trump was possibly somewhat normal but for the rest of us this is just another in a mountain of “no shit sherlock” trump things.
They won’t do it until after everything settles and likely very quietly. They do not want people to think that making threats can make them a name for themselves.
