特朗普总统的特别任务特使、前肯尼迪中心主席里克·格勒内尔表示，他在周三一名男子的判决听证会上“心神不宁”，该男子因去年12月向他发送威胁信息而定罪。
格勒内尔在法庭上宣读了受害者影响陈述，随后33岁的弗吉尼亚男子斯科特·艾伦·博尔格被判处15个月监禁及三年监管释放。
圣诞节前两天，格勒内尔接到了博尔格的电话，对方称格勒内尔为“懦夫”。随后博尔格通过谷歌语音账号发送了一条短信，内容为：“走到U街上来，让子弹穿进你的脑袋，你这个忠诚派的猪皮混蛋[.]”
格勒内尔表示，作为博尔格定罪依据的那条短信“并非一次性事件”。他说当晚他接到了多达30个来自匿名号码的电话。但政府律师表示，无法追踪到这些匿名电话与博尔格有关。
博尔格使用的谷歌语音账号是用虚假电子邮件地址注册的，以逃避追踪。格勒内尔曾接到一个显示号码的电话——当时博尔格在电话里骂他“懦夫”——他随后向联邦调查局报了案。
在陈述中，格勒内尔表示，作为一名同性恋保守派人士，他早已习惯来自各方的批评，但博尔格“精神失常”，他的行为越过了底线。
听证会结束后，格勒内尔接受了哥伦比亚广播公司新闻的采访，谈及与博尔格同处一个法庭的经历。
“我很惊讶，你走过去，离那个想要杀你的人只有几步远，”格勒内尔说道。他还表示，他认为15个月的监禁判决是恰当的。
格勒内尔在法庭上表示：“我不希望再有像我的朋友查理·柯克那样的受害者。”他说他原谅了博尔格，但补充道，他“对他出狱的那一天感到担忧”。
博尔格的律师在法庭文件中表示，博尔格热爱肯尼迪中心，在得知由格勒内尔领导的董事会投票决定将该机构更名为“唐纳德·J·特朗普与约翰·F·肯尼迪表演艺术纪念中心”后，他变得“极度愤怒”。（今年5月，一名法官裁定必须移除特朗普的名字，并叫停了翻新期间关闭该中心的计划。）
博尔格也在法庭上发表了声明，向格勒内尔及其家人道歉，并表示他的行为“无论政治和肯尼迪中心对我有多重要，都不可原谅”。
“我不想压制辩论，但我们确实需要认识到，精神不稳定的人会听到我们的言论，并采取你可能并未授意的行动，但他们确实这么做了，”格勒内尔告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻。
格勒内尔指责民主党人和媒体 outlets——包括MS Now、《每日野兽》和《赫芬顿邮报》——助长了政治暴力。
“这个国家的左翼暴力行为正在升级，”他说。“我们必须承认这一点。”
战略与国际研究中心去年12月的一项研究指出，左翼恐怖主义袭击有所增加，但同时也表示，这一增长“起点极低，仍远低于右翼和圣战袭击者制造的历史暴力水平”。该研究发现，2025年是“30多年来左翼恐怖主义袭击数量首次超过暴力极右翼袭击数量”。
Trump special missions envoy Ric Grenell says he was “rattled” by sentencing of man convicted of threatening him

Ric Grenell, President Trump’s special missions envoy and the former president of the Kennedy Center, says he was “rattled” Wednesday at the sentencing hearing of a man convicted of sending a threatening message to him in December.
Grenell gave a victim impact statement in court before Scott Allen Bolger, a 33-year-old Virginia man, was sentenced to 15 months in prison and three years of supervised release.
Two days before Christmas, Grenell answered a phone call from Bolger, who called Grenell a “coward.” Bolger then sent Grenell a text message through a Google Voice account that read, “Step on U Street and get a bullet put between your eyes, loyalist pig skin p****[.]”
Grenell said the text message that was the basis of Bolger’s conviction “was not a one-time thing.” He said he received up to 30 calls that night from an anonymous number. But government lawyers said they were unable to trace the anonymous calls to Bolger.
The Google Voice account used by Bolger was registered using a fake email address to evade detection. Once Grenell received a call that displayed a number — when Bolger called him a “coward” — he reported it to the FBI.
During his statement, Grenell said that he was accustomed to criticism from both sides as a gay conservative, but that Bolger was “unhinged,” and his actions crossed the line.
After the hearing, Grenell talked with CBS News about the experience of being in the same courtroom as Bolger.
“I was surprised that you walk over, and you’re steps away from the guy who wants to kill you,” Grenell said. He also said that he thought the 15-month prison sentence was adequate.
Grenell told the court, “I don’t want there to be a victim like my friend, Charlie Kirk.” He said he forgives Bolger but added that he is “fearful of the day he gets out.”
A lawyer for Bolger said in court documents that he loved the Kennedy Center and became “extremely upset” when he learned the board, led by Grenell, had voted to rename the institution “The Donald J. Trump and the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts.” (In May, a judge ruled that Mr. Trump’s name must be removed from the center and blocked plans to close it during renovations.)
Bolger also gave a statement in court, apologizing to Grenell and his family and saying his actions were not excusable, “no matter how much politics and the Kennedy Center means to me.”
“I don’t want to silence debate, but we do need to recognize that mentally unstable people are hearing what we’re saying and taking action that you may not authorize, but they are taking that action,” Grenell told CBS News.
Grenell blamed Democrats and media outlets — among them, MS Now, the Daily Beast and Huffington Post — for fueling political violence.
“The left violence is growing in this country,” he said. “We have to admit it.”
A study by the Center for Strategic and International Studies in December identified an increase in left-wing terrorism attacks, though it also said that the rise was “from very low levels and remains much lower than historical levels of violence carried out by right-wing and jihadist attackers.” The study found that 2025 marked the “first time in more than 30 years that left-wing terrorist attacks outnumber those from the violent far right.”
