Threats have poured in, attacking Judge Juan Merchan and his family. Merchan is the presiding judge over former President Donald Trump's case. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has also been inundated with threats in the form of calls, emails, and letters.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Donald Trump Jr, and Eric Trump all posted pictures of Merchan's daughter on social media. It appeared to be an orchestrated effort.

NBC News reports:

The New York police detail assigned to the DA's office is providing extra security to all affected staff members. Court officers, meanwhile, are boosting security for the judge and the court as a whole as a precaution.

Other steps have been taken, as well. Online bios of employees at the Manhattan district attorney's office were recently removed from the DA's website, according to a source familiar with the matter, because of troubling posts on social media, including Trump's Truth Social platform.
Trump and his allies have publicly criticized Merchan and his family, including his adult daughter.

Ahead of his court appearance Tuesday, Trump blasted Merchan on his Truth Social account as a "highly partisan judge" and said the judge and his family are "Trump haters." In the post, Trump said, "HIS DAUGHTER WORKED FOR 'KAMALA' & NOW THE BIDEN-HARRIS CAMPAIGN."

The outlet asked Trump spokesman Steven Cheung whether the one-term President's re-election campaign is concerned that his direct attacks on Bragg and Merchan hurt his legal efforts. He said, "The Constitution guarantees impartial process and free speech. President Trump is laying out all the facts. Facts matter."

None of Trump's attacks on Bragg or the Judge are based on facts. He's an arsonist trying to start a fire and doesn't care who gets hurt. Once the fire ignites, he'll go to his bunker for safety, then come out and blame whoever got burned. We've seen this play out before.
