    I recall him criticizing Ginsburg and Soromayor but did he threaten them? “Pay the Price” wtf does that imply?

    I want to tell you, Neil Gorusch, and you, Brett Kavanaugh, you have unleashed a whirlwind, and you will pay the price,” Schumer said. “You won’t know what hit you, if you go forward with these awful decisions.”

    This is by Lawrence Tribe a famous Harvard professor and icon of law for the left.


    "These remarks by @SenSchumer were inexcusable. Chief Justice Roberts was right to call him on his comments. I hope the Senator, whom I’ve long admired and consider a friend, apologizes and takes back his implicit threat. It’s beneath him and his office."





    McConnell, Grassley demand Schumer apologize for SCOTUS threat

    Two key Republican senators on Thursday demanded Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer apologize for saying Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch would “pay a price” during a pro-abortion rally.

    Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Mr. Schumer’s comments were “a shameless effort to bully our nation’s independent judiciary.”

    “And yesterday those efforts took a dangerous and disturbing turn,” said Mr. McConnell, Kentucky Republican. “There is nothing to call this but a threat and there is absolutely no question [about] to whom it was directed.”

    A threat like that has to be a matter for the police, right?

    There's nothing wrong with publicly criticizing judicial decisions, but threatening judges based of their decisions is crossing a line. I'm surprised that Schumer would make a mistake that blatant. He's typically more calculated than that.

    It is absolutely asinine to compare the two events.
