The Justice Department reportedly rebuffed Acting DC US Attorney Ed Martin’s plan to impanel a grand jury to probe Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer’s threat to conservative Supreme Court justices.
.... Snip....
Ed Martin named the investigation “Operation Whirlwind” after Schumer’s threats to conservative Supreme Court justices.
Chuck Schumer previously threatened conservative Supreme Court justices when he shouted, “You have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price.” He continued, “You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.”
On Tuesday, The New York Times reported that the Justice Department rebuffed Ed Martin’s plan to a seek grand jury to investigate Chuck Schumer.
The five-year limit to prosecute Schumer for his threatening remarks expires TODAY.
“Ed Martin, the interim U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, has been quietly pushing to present evidence against Senator Charles Schumer of New York, the Democratic leader, to a federal grand jury over comments he made about Supreme Court justices in 2020, according to people with knowledge of the situation,” The New York Times reported.
“Justice Department officials have thus far rebuffed the unusual request by Mr. Martin, a partisan ally of President Trump with no previous prosecutorial experience, one of those people said,” the NY Times reported.
The Times added, “The five-year time limit for prosecuting Mr. Schumer under the most likely charges that might stem from any inquiry expires on Tuesday.”
Ed Martin did not immediately respond to The Gateway Pundit’s request for comment.

Why is DOJ protecting Schumer? I am thinking Pam Bondi was a very bad pick...
looking forward to Bondi getting confirmed
Bondi so far, is disappointing.
Is Pam Bondi related to Jeff Sessions?
Trump always had issues making good staff picks..
What in blazes tarnation is going on here?

Blondi keeping up with her Democrat buddies - she’s got swell Democrat parties to go to now. Don’t expect too much. Ditsy broad is as ditsy broad does, one of 3. 47 sure can pick legal help.
Because it’s a stupid idea that will just waste time and go nowhere. Just like the impeachment of federal judges which has only happened 16 times in the nation’s history and then only half were convicted. Bondi will pick her battles and this ain’t one of them.
The remedy for Schoomer is to defeat him in an election not through lawfare.
She has been confirmed & sworn in even. Are you being sarcastic perhaps?
Well that sucks. Lawyer Barbie misses one more thing.
Of course they are blocking consequences for politicians. They always do. How about the guy that pulled the fire alarm. Maybe not much is going to change at the DOJ under Trump.
Fire Bondi. Get Ken Paxton.
(How about the guy that pulled the fire alarm.)
I had forgotten about that. Whatever was the outcome of it?
They have something else in store for Chuckie and do not want it distracted by minutia.
“”””Because it’s a stupid idea that will just waste time and go nowhere.”””
Yup. Keep your powder dry for a real situation.
“Conduct lawfare against a powerful Democrat senator and you set an example for Democrats who wage lawfare against Republicans without consequences.”
Agreed.
Btw Martin has been outstanding so far—busted a bunch of DC DOJ attorneys to misdemeanor work.
That may not sound like much but for those attorneys it is a brutal humiliation—excellent retribution for what they did to J6ers.
It is like demoting the President of the company to the mail room.
The entire stinking bunch up there are corrupt. Those people are traitors. Treason trials and executions.
