A longtime judge appointed to courts by several Republican presidents who memorably said that former Attorney General Bill Barr “distorted” the findings of the Mueller report is now sounding the alarm about the “very troubling” reality that threats against jurists and their families are receiving more threats than ever.

Senior U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton joined CNN’s Kaitlan Collins for an interview on Thursday night and commented on the gag order that Acting New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan issued in former President Donald Trump’s hush-money criminal case.

Just as he did with his civil fraud trial judge and that judge’s clerk, Trump has ramped up Truth Social attacks on both Merchan and the jurist’s daughter to claim his falsification of business records prosecution is a continuation of a political witch hunt that began in 2016.
