Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) attacked Chief Justice John Roberts and issued a warning to the Court in a statement released by his spokesman Justin Goodman Wednesday afternoon in response to Roberts rebuking Schumer for threatening Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh at a pro-choice protest rally in front of the Supreme Court building Wednesday morning while inside the justices heard arguments on a Louisiana abortion law case, June Medical Services LLC v. Russo.

Schumer had screamed his threat, “I want to tell you, Gorsuch! And 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 continues to face intense backlash for iresponsible actions. A member of the U.S. Senate has now indicated that he intends to introduce a measure to censure Schumer.

Sen. Josh Hawley’s (R-MO) office released the following statement:

“Now @chuckschumer is threatening Supreme Court Justices personally, to the point of implying their physical safety is endangered. Disgusting, shameful, and frankly, WEAK,” Hawley wrote on Twitter. “I would call on Schumer to apologize, but we all know he has no shame. So tomorrow I will introduce a motion to censure Schumer for his pathetic attempt at intimidation of #SupremeCourt.”

Roberts replied in his remarkable written statement, obtained by Fox News: “This morning, Senator Schumer spoke at a rally in front of the Supreme Court while a case was being argued inside. Senator Schumer referred to two Members of the Court by name and said he wanted to tell them that ‘You have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price. You will not know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.’”

Roberts continued: “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. All Members of the Court will continue to do their job, without fear or favor, from whatever quarter.” [Fox News]

There are also two public Democrats, Jimmy Williams, a senior adviser to Tom Steyer and liberal law professor Lawrence Tribe, who are also slamming Schumer’s threats:

i have seen nothing that explains this..that clip cuts off the reaction from the person behind him.

I can’t think of any plausible excuse for what he was doing it...unless there was something on the chair

[Graing]

Oooooh a censure! That’ll teach him! If not, strongly worded letter to follow!

[sport]

I would not hold my breath waiting on the DOJ to do anything.

[chajin]

The Dem base needs a scapegoat for the failed impeachment.

Schumer has just been Matthewed. Dick Durban will run the Senate Dems just as left-ily as Schumer did.

[dfwgator]

“Very ugly man these days. He should reign.” No worries. That “D” behind his name grants him immunity. He’ll continue to reign for the near future.

[brownsfan]

“Schumer forgot to keep his emotions in check and will pay for his words. “

I don’t for a moment believe emotion is any part of this. I think Schumer is what most leftists are, a calculating, self serving POS. Schumer was playing to his base.

The media will have Schumer’s back, there will be no consequences for this. It’s possible that this will strengthen Schumer’s position.

[windsorknot]

Chuck Schumer already “stepped down”...to gutter level.

[Starboard]

He has a “D” next to his name, that’s immunity.

**************

As we have seen countless times before.

Being a Democrat means never having to say you’re sorry.

Someone with some gravitas or at least someone the Left would listen to (like Lawrence Tribe for instance, but it would be better if it were a non-politician) might be advised to have the equivalent of a 'come to Jesus' talk along the lines of:

You know and I know, even if we won't admit it, we have gotten a lot of joy out of tormenting these people for various reasons,but perhaps we better stop.
Because at some point there is going to be a push back. And while those you or I might view as deplorable smile or try to be civil in the face of all the stunts and scams we pull, they have an anger building that at some point is going to unleash, and cries for mercy will fall on deaf ears.
At that point, appeals for civility won't matter. We what we've done, and maybe it's time to take a hard look at ourselves and ask if this is what we really want.

[Chauncey Gardiner]

This will make a great GOP campaign ad.

[bkopto]

There are also two public Democrats, Jimmy Williams, a senior adviser to Tom Steyer and liberal law professor Lawrence Tribe,

Exactly two (2) democrats, one of whom is a nobody and the other is a has-been professor.

YAWWWNNN....

[gloryblaze]

It really was creepy to watch, him all riled up, feeding off the crowd’s frenzy like an old west mob at a necktie party.

[jjotto]

She’s the head of the NYC Public Library and iI think was head of the NYC DOT. She’s well-known in NYC.

[libstripper]

“He’s sure not going to be any help for the Dem Prez candidate....Do they even have one?”

Even more important, he’s going to be a drag on each DemonShit candidate for the Senate. An excellent tactic for all Pubbie candidates for the Senate would be to run repeated clips of this diatribe and then demand their DemonShit opponents repudiate Schumer and pledge to remove him from their Senate leadership.

[albie]

This will go the same route as Gov Blackface Northam. 2 weeks of fussing, calls for stepping down, chat on The View etc. Then it just goes away.

[gloryblaze]

And don’t forget his referral to Trump’s creation of a hate-filled atmosphere all across the fruited plain.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Hey Senor Schmuckie! The best way to stay away from that “whirlwind” is to stay out of Taco Bell for a while.

[USA Conservative]

I hope that the rule of law prevails. However, after the Hillary felonies, and then NOTHING, I’ve become skeptical, with regard to accountability/consequences for Dems., that any of them will ever be brought up on charges.
