Why is "Threats" in double-quotes? The fact that they are "threats" is not in question - these are not "alleged threats"?

I see that it comes from the article, but that only pushes back my question as to why the article does that. It also puts "hard right" and "all-out" (and "holy war" and "race war" and "dangerous" and "evil" and "demonic" etc.) in quotes too, which should not be, but those at least are all more discretionary, whereas putting "threats" in quotes like that calls into question their validity.

Not anymore...

I wonder where they went?
