Threats Against Judges Double as Politics Heat Up

Serious threats toward U.S. federal judges more than doubled from 2021 to 2023, with many aimed at women jurists, reports The 19th. Judges cite social-media attacks and high-profile political criticism as accelerants; a new judiciary task force will assess security gaps. ​

Civic duty tip: think twice before sharing doxxing content, and support courthouse-security funding in your district.
