The American Bar Association said on Wednesday that it is "deeply troubled" by a comment made by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., outside the Supreme Court that many said was a direct threat to two sitting justices.

"Personal attacks on judges by any elected officials, including the president, are simply inappropriate," the ABA’s statement read. "Such comments challenge the reputation of the third, co-equal branch of our government; the independence of the judiciary; and the personal safety of judicial officers. They are never acceptable."

The ABA is deeply distoybed.

Garbage. It was a threat, not a personal attack.

[redshawk]

What are they going to do?
Make Chuck write 500 times on the blackboard, “Frank Burns Eats Worms”?

Chuck joins Antifa; even the ABA felt obligated to complain.

Exactly right. ABA and Lawrence Tribe.

Schumer has stepped in it... and can’t just easily brush it aside.

I am half expecting Senator Schemer to show up at a Bernie rally with his shirt off and a "Let Dairy Die" poster.

Am expecting Schmucky to appear in front of cameras in the next 24 hours or so looking repentant, trying to walk it back. The heat is too great.

So Chuck Schumer threatens Supreme Court Justices and the ABA criticizes Trump? How amazing! I guess I shouldn't expect an "Emergency Meeting" of the Federal Judges Association!

A very weak statement from the legal arm of the DNC.

[Conserv]

The Schmuck will throw in a few crocodile tears, too.

Ya. “Deeply troubled” and $2 will get you coffee.

[lapsus calami]

 

 

You know it.

Really? Are you that naive? This was started centuries ago when politicians would go into the Forum and make exhortations to the priests of the god Mars. He’s not gonna back off one inch. He can’t.

[Conserv]

They already are backing off.

Using the lame and overly used excuse.... it was misinterpreted.

[SanchoP]

Right,gotta keep the sheeple stupid. That was the town crier’s job.

[Ann Archy]

Schumer is a MEAN ANTI-CHRISTIAN PUNKASS! A NO CLASS, RUDE PUNKASS!

[nikos1121]

No he’ll double down....

[airborne]

I do not believe that President Trump questioning a USSC Justice’s impartiality is a personal attack. It questions their legal position .

[yldstrk]

It was a threat and if Shumer is a lawyer his ticket should be pulled.
