- Sen. Dick Durbin has urged the DOJ and FBI to investigate anonymous pizza deliveries to federal judges' homes, describing them as intimidation tactics targeting the judiciary.

- The targeted individuals reportedly include Supreme Court justices, judges overseeing cases involving the Trump Administration, and judges' family members.
- Durbin has requested a briefing by May 20 on the number of incidents, investigative actions taken, and measures to protect judges and their families.
- Attorney General Pam Bondi acknowledged the reports but stated she is still gathering information and has not yet issued a formal response.
