President Donald Trump responded to Democrat Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer’s (D-NY) threat against Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh on Wednesday by saying that “serious” and immediate action needed to be taken against Schumer.
“This is a direct & dangerous threat to the U.S. Supreme Court by Schumer,” Trump tweeted. “If a Republican did this, he or she would be arrested, or impeached. Serious action MUST be taken NOW!”
Trump’s remarks came after Schumer threatened the Supreme Court Justices earlier in the day while speaking at a far-left pro-abortion rally near the Supreme Court.
“Republican legislatures are waging a war on women, all women, and they’re taking away fundamental rights,” Schumer said. “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.”

I’d say. He’s off the rails.
I have only this advice for the entire Democrat Party.....Get rid of and broom both, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer immediately. The reasons why are so multiple and justified...it hurts!!! Dems will not do it...so....the Democrat Party will die politically this year!!!
I suggest they simply take a good hard look at the number of votes cast in support of POTUS, Donald J. Trump on “Super Tuesday” vs. what their Democrat candidates got. It tells the entire story..period!!!
Just wondering, is Wash DC a “Red Flag” area or do they have to wait until Chuck sets foot in New York?
Txt me when all the bloviating is done and anyone is charged.
The Secret Service should have handcuffed this bastard so fast he’d have dislocated shoulders.
I just sent a note to Trump telling him he hired another weak, inept, gutless AG.
Yup, every politician is exempt from the rule of law.
Schumer was NOT on the Senate floor. No protection.
The Capital police should already have picked Schumer up and taken him in for questioning.
Not just a censure.....IMPEACH!!!!!
In partial defense of Barr, there are 115,000 bureaucrats working at the DOJ. That is a massive organization chart.
If you have ever worked in a large organization - its not like a construction crew where a supervisor gives instructions to his team and then does a daily walk through to look over their shoulders. There are way too many people - it is impossible to achieve that direct span of control. So everything is done according to written policies and procedures. The policies are reviewed annually, changes recommended, procedures are tweaked.
Departments report results up through so many layers of bureaucracy and it takes forever for them to percolate up to the top. There is plenty of opportunity to massage the reports and make yourself look good. By the time a problem comes to light (if ever) it’s way too late for corrective measures. So they tweak the policies again. Nobody gets fired because there isn’t enough accountability to even assign blame.
This is the problem with a bloated bureaucracy - zero accountability.
The ONLY solution is cut it down to a hundredth the size. Or whatever size it was under George Washington (if there even was even a DOJ then).
115,000 people? Really? It is simply absurd to think that we need that many people to do anything useful. That number of people didn’t get hired deliberately out of need - it just grows like a fungus and there’s nothing to stop it.
I’ve been in a big organization before - not THAT big - but big - and I’ll tell you, it’s not as easy as it sounds to just get hired by the board as CEO, or appointed by the President as AG, and go over and make 115,000 people do what you want them to do. They know they will still be there when you are long gone, so they can just wait it out.
Just to go around and shake 115,000 peoples’ hands - if you met 50 people a day, five days a week, it would take 10 years. And that’s just shaking peoples’ hands one time - evaluating performance of key personnel and determining who needs to be fired? It’s impossible, which is exactly why it never happens.
When there is a President with enough balls and political clout to just fire EVERYONE in the entire Executive Branch and start from scratch - that is when the swamp will drain - it’s the only way, unfortunately.
LOLOL!!!
It is extremely rare for Democrats to ever suffer any real consequences for their actions. Case in point, Menendez is still in the Senate and Charlie Rangel got a slap on the wrist and was the grand marshall for an African American Parade in 2019. Rangel recently endorsed Biden.

What’s to keep one of these kooks from acting “on Schumer’s behalf” upon hearing his blatent threats?
Do nothing republicans will say it’s naughty and do nothing.
Contacted Cruz , but won’t even bother with do nothing cornyn.
As St. Paul says:
“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. [12] For the things that are done by them in secret, it is a shame even to speak of. we cannot even speak of the things they do. Eph5:11-12
I like your idea.
People go to jail for this, with no bail, for threatening a traffic court judge over parking tickets.
Mark Levin commented on his show that even John Gotti and El Chapo did not threaten their federal judges.
