Chuck Schumer Used Violent Rhetoric To Sic A Mob On Two Supreme Court Justices

One year ago, Schumer incited a mob on the steps of the Supreme Court in order to bully justices to rule in Democrats’ favor.

FTA:When Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., spoke against the constitutionality of the Democrats’ impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump, he reminded his colleagues that Democrat elected officials had recently told their followers to attack Republicans. If Trump was to be impeached for asking followers to “peacefully and patriotically” make their voices heard by members of Congress on Jan. 6, what to do with Democrats’ more incendiary rhetoric and actions, he wondered.

One example Paul left out of his excellent speech is even more relevant to next week’s impeachment. Less than one year ago, Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York led a mob on the steps of the Supreme Court while a case was being heard and tried to thwart the natural deliberation of justices by violently threatening two of them to rule in favor of his and other Democrats’ preferred outcome.

“I want to tell you, Gorsuch, I want to tell you, Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price. You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions,” Schumer threatened the two most recently confirmed justices, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh.

The threat was so alarming that even leftist activists such as Laurence Tribe condemned it. Schumer received a rare, same-day rebuke from Chief Justice John Roberts, who said, “Justices know that criticism comes with the territory, but threatening statements of this sort from the highest levels of government are not only inappropriate, they are dangerous.”

He sure did!!

If nothing else.....I wish the GOP chairs/committes of NY and UT would censure McRomney and Schumer for their absurd and dangerous rhetoric.

I’d forgotten about that. I don’t remember what the case was.

The SCOTUS has no power at the present time. Decisions must be postponed till the military (who is in charge) reestablish the republic.

Yet another indication that the military is currently in charge
