Colorado Supreme Court judges receive threats following Trump ballot ruling

FBI investigating threats against Colorado Supreme Court judges.

In a recent turn of events, the FBI has confirmed its collaboration with local law enforcement to investigate the alarming threats made against judges on the Colorado Supreme Court. These threats have arisen following a contentious 4-3 ruling by the court, which determined that former President Donald Trump was constitutionally ineligible to participate in the state's Republican primary ballot. The crux of the ruling lies in the application of the insurrectionist ban outlined in the 14th Amendment.

While thus far no concrete threats have been identified, there is growing concern over the escalating rhetoric levied against the four judges who voted in favor of disqualifying Trump. A detailed analysis has revealed a surge in heated online language directed at these judges. This worrisome pattern has raised apprehensions of potential lone actors or small groups taking action in support of Trump's cause.
