HONOLULU --The FBI says authorities are aware that the federal judge in Hawaii who ruled against President Donald Trump’s travel ban has received threatening messages.

FBI spokeswoman Michele Ernst said Thursday the agency is aware of reports of threatening messages against U.S. District Judge Derrick Watson and is prepared to help if necessary.

While the FBI did not provide details on what states the threats are originating, sources told CBS affiliate KGMB that they are coming from the mainland, or the continental U.S.

Former federal agent Tommy Aiu told KGMB that it’s not unusual for additional deputies to be brought in to help the local U.S. Marshals office with protection needs.

1. K&R for broader exposure

[Sculpin Beauregard]

2. Send Dump's secret service, all of them

To help the protect the Judge. Dump can pay privately for his own.

[Tanuki]

12. Or maybe send some of the four agents who accompanied Kellyanne Conway

and two of her kids on their recent shopping outing at their local Target store. Much better use of public resources to protect the judge, who is working for the people of America, than Kremlin Kelly, who is working against us. Let Kellyanne's real boss, the Mercers, pay for her security if they think she needs it.

19. amen to that! This is beyond comprehension, what is happening.

[SHRED]

3. Like Putin does

9. K & R for exposure.

[BlueStater]

10. And we're supposed to empathize with these people?

Fuck them. I want nothing to do with their world.

[mreilly]

13. Exactly.

The crybabies howl and snivel when they don't get their way and immediately run to illegal activities like death threats. They have zero regard for democracy, law, fair play or common decency. Like crying brats, they just want their way 100% of the time or they're being picked on by meanies. 99% is not enough - it's got to be 100% or the tantrums keep carrying on.

Had enough of the snotnosed little shits. There is no reaching across the aisle for me. There is no "listening to their concerns" or "trying to understand their perspective." It is nothing more than containment, smacking them across their teary little cheeks and shoving them in the corner to sit with a dunce cap on their heads. Fuck them.

17. amen
