Democrat Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) continues to face intense backlash for threatening Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch on Wednesday as a member of the U.S. Senate has now announced he will introduce a measure to censure Schumer.
Sen. Josh Hawley’s (R-MO) office released the following statement:
Tonight U.S. Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) announced he will introduce a motion to censure U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) for inciting violence against U.S. Supreme Court Justices. In a pro-abortion rally in front of the Supreme Court today, Senator Schumer threatened Justices by name saying, “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.”
And now things just got even worse for Schumer, as Democrats are even slamming him now, and one even calling for him to step down as Minority Leader:

Which Republipukes are slamming him? Where’s Linda Graham? Mitt Romeney???? Rubio???? Anyone????
This statement from Schmucky should even have the weak ass limp wristed RINOs like Murkowski and Collins calling for his resignation and for him to face serious criminal charges. Where are the rest of the Republican party when things like this occur? Burying their heads in the sand? What are they DOING?
If Pres. Trump said it to RBG and the WL, he’d be impeached all over again. Picture it:
“I want to tell you, Ginsburg. I want to tell you, Sotomayor. 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.”
Now that there's a link to the source blog:
"Jimmy Williams, a former Senate Judiciary Committee staffer and senior adviser to former Democrat candidate Tom Steyer’s presidential campaign, responded to Schumer’s threat by suggesting that he may need to step down."
This is why guys like Humblegunner add value to FR. Take an important news story about an asshole Democrat Minority Leader shooting off his mouth threatening violence against two Supreme Court Justices, and then totally make up and fabricate a dramatic headline that falsely suggests that one of his own caucus members is breaking ranks against him, just to generate clicks.
When the reader goes to the link, it states that the Democrat who has publicly made a critical statement about Chuckie is some former staffarraptchik from the Senate Intel committee who has most recently been seen on Steyer's presidential campaign.
Way to go, actually a pretty nice blog other than that. Well written and timely. The headline was Schumeresque, Schumerian, Schumerlike, Schumerly.
Thanks for clarifying. It’s a rare event when one of the Dems acts like an individual for true reasons of fairness and decorum. So, he USED TO BE in the Senate. Got it. He loses nothing by speaking out now.
Mr. Williams was once a Senate Staffer, not a US Senator.
You’re welcome, BTW.
If I didn’t know better, I’d think his cousin Amy was his speechwriter. He thinks he’s being funny when his comments are bordering on treason.
A comedian (sic) can usually get away with it. The leading Democrat in the Senate, not so much.
Pop! Goes the weasel!
As long as you have a D there you can get away with everything so I doubt it will happen.
He threatened their lives. Period.
Hope ain’t a plan..but hope you are right.
Prolly Cousin Vinney...and this is goin no where.
40 USC §§6134 & 6137(a)
It is unlawful to ...utter loud, threatening, or abusive language in the Supreme Court Building or grounds.
An individual who violates this ... shall be fined under title 18, imprisoned not more than 60 days, or both.
That is when he first crossed my radar and I've never forgotten it. Only the most callous lowlife could have treated those people that way.
btt
Yes, I surely do.....
