"Colorado Trump Ruling Sparks Controversy and Calls for Biden's Response"

Violent online rhetoric has surged following the Colorado Supreme Court's ruling that former President Donald Trump is ineligible to appear on the state's primary ballot. Far-right platforms are circulating personal information of the justices involved and calling for Trump's supporters to take up arms. Extremism researchers have noted an increase in such rhetoric since Trump left office and faced legal pressure. While no credible or imminent threats have been identified, experts warn that the normalization of threats and vitriolic attacks may erode American democracy and discourage participation in day-to-day democratic processes.
