Democrats Demand Details of Personal Friend’s Private Conversations in Quest to Take Down SCOTUS Justices
Breitbart ^ | 07/27/2023 | KEN KLUKOWSKI

WASHINGTON, DC – Senate Democrats’ demands for conservative private citizens’ interactions with Supreme Court justices are unconstitutional, violating First Amendment and equal protection rights, according to lawyers representing Leonard Leo, co-chairman of the Federalist Society.

Partisan Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee have been pursuing conservative Supreme Court justices – but only conservative justices – for years. But now Democrats are targeting conservative private citizens, with Chairman Richard Durbin (D-IL) and Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) leading the charge.

In the latest salvo, Durbin and Whitehouse fired off a letter on July 11 to Leo, requesting that he provide the committee with information about his interactions with Supreme Court justices.

Every single accusation that Dems launch at Republicans and their appointees applies equally, if not to multiplied degree, to Democrats. They are the dictionary definition of corrupt influence.

It seems that Ruth Buzzie Ginsberg was extremely buddy-buddy with Planned Barrenhood, but ruled on related cases anyway.

What - don’t they already have recordings of every conversation, text, phone call, bank transaction, grocery list our conservative justices have ever had?

And the democrat traitors are going to do what when they are told to pound sand?

The left keeps pushing and they really aren’t prepared for what will eventually come.

The Senate will find them in contempt of Congress. The D.O.J. will quickly review the charges and charge them with a criminal offense. Since the offense occurred in the District of Columbia, that is where the trial will be held. They will be found guilty, regardless of the evidence.

None of this would be happening if GOP Senators had justifiably beaten criminal Democrats to a pulp while Trump was POTUS. They certainly had the power to do it and in fact did nothing. Instead, the Senate GOP gives the green light to continued Democrat assaults on Republicans.

It is past time for the FBI (Federal Bureau of Inquisition) and the DOaJ (Department of anti-Justice, they're now far beyond mere injustice) to do a pre-dawn raid on the homes/offices of the six offending SCOTUS justices... we all know they've committed a "crime" against the state somewhere, sometime! This must be done to "save our democracy!" #StalinLives!

This is because the democrats have learned to be communists.

Communism disregards law, which is based on truth.

Communism runs on politics, which is based on lies.

"Demand"????

Under what authority?

1st and 5th Amendments provide pretty good protection against such unfounded demands.

Nonsense. Nobody will do jack shit about refusing to cave in to irrational dem demands over this nonsense (IMO). If they are stupid enough to continue to attempt to attack people over their fervent desire to remove SCOTUS judges who won't vote the way the left demands, then let's continue to push this out in the open where everyone can sit back and ridicule the unconstitutional moves of the senate dems.

I say let them try and see where it leads.

I would like to think so as well. But consider; President Trump was impeached over a phone call he made to the President of Ukraine trying to confirm Biden’s claim to have fired a prosecutor investigating Burisma. He was impeached again over what he said/didn’t say on January 6. He has been indicted in NYC for 37 felonies for paying off a woman, he has been found liable for what may or may not have happened many years ago in NYC, he has been told to expect indictments for actions/inactions on January 6, he has been indicted for his handling of documents in Florida, and he has been told to expect indictments for a phone call he made to the Georgia Sec’y of State.

I would humbly suggest that your optimistic view of what democrats are capable of is misplaced.
