(CNN) Kathy Griffin is fighting back against the abuse and "death threats" she has received in light of controversial images released earlier this week that showed the comedian holding up a bloody head resembling that of President Donald Trump.
In a news conference on Friday, Griffin's attorney Lisa Bloom accused Trump and his family of "using their power to target her."
"If you don't stand up, you get run over," Griffin said. "What's happening to me has never happened in this great country. A sitting president of the U.S. ... is personally trying to ruin my life forever."
Bloom said the comedian was contacted by the U.S. Secret Service and said she has retained a criminal lawyer.
"As a result of the first family bullying her, she has been vilified, getting death threats, fired from multiple jobs and had multiple events canceled," Bloom said.
Bloom is a victim's rights attorney who is best known for representing high-profile clients, including former Fox News contributor Wendy Walsh, who accused the network's former host Bill O'Reilly of sexual harassment.(snip)
Griffin and Bloom believe the comedian has received harsher backlash because she is female.
"This is a woman thing," Griffin said.
Although Griffin tearfully apologized again during her press conference, she said that she will continue to use Trump as fodder for her comedic material.
"I'm going to make fun of him more now," she said.

Didn’t this filthy animal apologize 24 hours ago? Even Chelsea criticized her. What a fake.
Griffin is one of those Can’t Understand Normal Thinking types.
Doubling down on stupid is no way to promote your career..........such as it was.......
She ruined her own life. Trump and his family, and the American people, are the victims.
Trump has every right to after her if she caused Barron or other family members severe emotional distress which I think wouldn’t be hard to prove because Barron reported thought the head was actually his dad.
This act by Kathy Griffin should be grounds for a lawsuit for Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress to a Third-Party Relative (Barron) which requires
1) intent or reckless disregard of risk of severe emotional distress (SED)
*check*
2) extreme and outrageous conduct that exceeds all tolerated bounds of civil society that was directed at the victim
*check*
3) action caused third-party relative (Barron) severe emotional distress
*check* (if Barron actually thought that was his dad)
I hope the Trump family goes after her HARD. Make an example of her and by doing so, back off these decrepit Leftists.
Good, decent people die every day. Yet this hideous piece of s*** continues to breathe.
Life is not fair.
Cry me a river you useless skank!
Maybe she and Scooter Libby could get together for a few drinks...
Tripling down on stupid. She's just pissed because she's losing what few paying gigs she had, which has nothing to do with whatever made up nonsense about her life being threatened. Try being a critic of Obama during his reign. Secret service, DOJ, IRS, etc. would become you worst nightmare.

Kathy, Trump is not trying to ruin your life.
You did that all on your own.
Now America is telling you that you have ruined your life.
She’s in a deep hole.
She’s trying to get out of it.
But she just can’t stop digging.
Dear Kathy,
If your life is ruined, it’s because of a decision
YOU made.
BIH...unfunny slunt.
OMG. It’s a Democrat pretending to be the victim. That’s what they do.
For sure... and Kathy is living proof (for the conceptually challenged).
She’s the “See Spot run” lesson in what can happen to your brain after swallowing whole, decades of low IQ, wall-to-wall, irrational Liberal propaganda.
“As a result of the first family bullying her, she has been vilified, getting death threats, fired from multiple jobs and had multiple events canceled,”
Um - nope. Try this:
As a result of her extremely poor judgement and hysterical conduct, Ms. Griffin is finding out that she can’t just do stupid, disgusting things and skate. She is being shown that actions have consequences.
There. Fixed it.
Maybe they could meet Ray Donovan.
Now she’s blaming her victim for her crime. Unreal! “He broke me”. No skank you committed careericide.
