Trump Was Named In 1,200 Threat Reports Prior To 2020 Election - Ring of Fire



The Department of Homeland Security analyzes millions of threats every year, but in the lead-up to the 2020 election, they received roughly 1,200 threat reports that mentioned the name "Trump." In spite of this, the agency didn't believe that the people threatening to commit acts of violence were really that important, so many of these reports were just left to die on the vine, and we all know what happened next. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.
