Trump unleashes on 'psycho' Judge Engoron and Letitia James in 2 AM Thanksgiving rant
Just hours into Thanksgiving, while most Americans were asleep, former President Donald Trump posted an angry screed on his Truth Social account attacking the judge and law enforcement officials overseeing his New York civil fraud trial.
"Happy Thanksgiving to ALL, including the Racist & Incompetent Attorney General of New York State," Trump wrote Thursday morning at 2:03 AM. He also extended his holiday greetings to "the Radical Left Trump Hating Judge, a 'Psycho,' Arthur Engoron, who Criminally Defrauded the State of New York, & ME, by purposely Valuing my Assets at a “tiny” Fraction of what they are really worth." Trump also once again mentioned Engoron law clerk Allison Greenfield by name, describing her as "Politically Biased & Corrupt."
The 45th president of the United States also attacked President Joe Biden in his early morning rant, saying he "WEAPONIZED his Department of Injustice against his Political Opponent, & allowed our Country to go to HELL." He concluded the post mentioning "all of the other Radical Left Lunatics, Communists, Fascists, Marxists, Democrats, & RINOS, who are seriously looking to DESTROY OUR COUNTRY."

Trump's attacks on both Engoron and Greenfield in particular have resulted in a flurry of death threats from his supporters. Just hours after a gag order temporarily restraining the former president from attacking Greenfield was lifted, he took to Truth Social to attack her again, with many of the threats to Greenfield reportedly containing anti-Semitic language. According to court documents published by Reuters, Greenfield's personal information was compromised after Trump linked to her personal Instagram account, which resulted in "daily doxing."
"[Greenfield] has been receiving approximately 20-30 calls per day to her personal cell phone and approximately 30-50 messages per day on combined sites of social media, Linkedln and two (2) personal email addresses," the document read.
The New York Attorney General's office has argued against Trump's motion to stay the gag order, citing the attacks on Engoron and his staff. Senior Assistant Solicitor General Dennis Fan wrote that reinstating the gag order as soon as possible was necessary "to ensure the safety of the Supreme Court's staff" and the "integrity" of the proceedings.
Trump's civil fraud trial will likely conclude by the end of November or early December. The Attorney General's office is seeking $250 million in civil penalties in its lawsuit, alleging the Trump Organization knowingly submitted false valuations of its real estate profile to obtain more favorable insurance rates and tax breaks.
