The comparison came after news broke that Donald Trump supporters posted the names and addresses of Georgia grand jurors online, and that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis received abhorrent racist messages, including one calling her the n-word and a “Jim Crow Democrat whore.”
The Guardian reported:
Calls to violence have proliferated across far-right sites since the charges were made public on Monday night. Several Gab posts reproduced images of nooses and gallows and called for Willis and grand jurors who delivered the charges to be hanged.
Former FBI assistant director Frank Figliuzzi said the Trump indictments have created “an incredibly challenging threat environment.”
