Threatening Supreme Court Justices Is Never OK
2020-03-08
[REALCLEARPOLITICS] Congress must censure Democratic Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer
...Senator-for-life from New York, renowned for his love of standing in front of cameras. Schumer has been a professional politician since 1975, when disco was in flower, which is 44.25409 years. Senate minority leader as of 2017...
 for threatening two Supreme Court justices outside the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday. This should be wholly bipartisan and utterly uncontroversial.

No American, no less a high-ranking member of Congress like Schumer, should be permitted to threaten government officials or judges. This type of thuggish behavior displayed by the senior U.S. senator has no place in a civilized society and must be condemned by all.

#6  Even if he made a real and sincere apology, it's not enough. That's like a murder apologizing to the victim's family. He still has to do time.

Yeah, but it won't be. Democrats will not vote to censure Chuckie. He only said what they all feel.

#1  "Never OK"?

You mean, it's a felony punishable by years in prison.

Schemer deserves a lot worse than the limp-noodle lashing that us Congressional censure. He should be inducted. The man actually stood in the steps of SCOTUS, called out Justices Gorsych and Kavanaugh by name and made a direct threat against them while inviting a howling mob.

This is the same man who suborned perjury by encouraging a professional liar and now convicted felon, Michael Avenatti, to plant absurd smears of then-Judge Kavanaugh in the minds of nutjobs who claimed Kavanaugh was a gang rapist.

Got that?

Our shitty little wannabe-mafioso, Sen. Chuckie Bananas, orchestrated a campaign of lies, smears and criminal abuse of due process to assassinate the character of the same man that he is now issuing direct threats against -- on the steps of the Supreme Court.

Disbar this wretched man. Don't censure him. Indict him.
