Of course, one judge is an Obama appointee. The other a Biden appointee.
Very unserious people, who probably hope this guy can complete his task.

Very unserious people, who probably hope this guy can complete his task.
A Rhode Island man indicted for allegedly threatening to assassinate President Donald J. Trump, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller remains free on a GPS ankle monitor after two Democrat-affiliated federal judges refused the U.S. Department of Justice’s motions to jail him pending trial.
Carl D. Montague, 37, of Providence, was charged in an August 13 indictment with threats against the president, interstate threats, and threatening to assault, kidnap, or murder a United States official. All are felony charges that carry possible prison terms from five to 20 years.
...
“Montague began confessing to making threats before agents were able to introduce themselves or explained why they were there,” the FBI statement said.
Montague was shown the Truth Social post, and he “confirmed it was the post he submitted,” the FBI said.
...
Montague was arrested by the FBI on July 9 and named in a criminal complaint. He was released on a $10,000 appearance bond by U.S. Magistrate Judge Amy Moses, despite the DOJ’s motion to detain him.
Judge Moses was a law clerk for U.S. District Judge John J. McConnell Jr., an appointee of President Barack Obama, and previously served as deputy counsel for Democrat Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo.
Less than a week after Moses released Montague, the DOJ filed another motion with a district judge to revoke the release and detain Montague pending trial. The DOJ said that “his release endangers the safety of the persons to whom he directed his threats and the community.”
On July 25, U.S. District Judge Melissa R. DuBose denied the motion to detain Montague and instead ordered a GPS ankle monitor and an 8 p.m.-7 a.m. curfew.
Judge DuBose was appointed to the bench in January 2025 by President Biden. She is the first openly lesbian and black female jurist to serve on the federal bench in the Rhode Island district.
According to Assistant U.S. Attorney Dulce Donovan, Montague’s threats “were egregiously violent and unambiguous in his intent to kill all three individuals. His posting on June 27, 2025, left nothing to the imagination.”
Montague has “multiple convictions for violent assaults,” Donovan said, including in 2014, 2015, 2018, and 2022.
