JUDGE TARGETED BY TRUMP ONCE FACED DEATH THREATS FROM MEXICAN CARTEL

In the 1990s, Gonzalo Curiel was targeted for assassination when he was a federal prosecutor working to lock up some of the worst of the worst Mexican drug cartel members.

ABC News Nightline's Deborah Amos interviewed Curiel in 2002 when he was an assistant U.S. attorney. Curiel had been trying to keep illicit drugs from coming over the U.S. border with Mexico along the Tijuana corridor by doing battle with the infamous Arellano-Felix cartel. He described the takedown of top cartel leaders as a "huge deal."

Every federal judge who rules against drug cartels faces death threats.

Clarence Thomas faces death threats for being a black conservative.

Is ABC Fake News going to do any stories about that?

Trump has every right to criticize the bias on the bench.

Hey, how many stories has ABC Fake News done about the Obama administration defying a federal judge on immigration?

“He is also a member of La Rasa.”

‘Nuff said. That alone alone merits a guilty verdict for treason. Put his brown, racist and traitorous ass against the wall and shoot him.

“In the 1990s, Gonzalo Curiel was targeted for assassination when he was a federal prosecutor working to lock up some of the worst of the worst Mexican drug cartel members.”

Absolutely, this vile POS was targeted for a hit by a drug cartel. Curiel was on the payroll of a rival drug cartel to take down a competitor.

Next question.
