Chuck Schumer can issue statements online and give long-winded speeches in the Senate trying to gas-light the country all he wants, but the fact remains he made a clear threat at Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh (Trump appointees) on the grounds the Supreme Court where the Speech and Debate Clause DOES NOT APPLY, he’s NOT protected.
That said it is also abundantly clear Schumer did not speak off the cuff. He gave a PREPARED speech something he had the time to think about, sit down and write out, revise and edit, and probably type and print out to read from. Watch the video of his full speech, he’s looking down most of the time reading his words, choreographed with drama, energy and rage.
“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.”
If this isn’t a threat then what is??
Even CNN’s John King is calling him out!
Here are 3 4 laws (for now) Chuck Schumer broke…
It’s important to point out under this statute it covers action on the grounds of SCOTUS building. Schumer is used to speaking his mind in the Senate knowing he’s protected by the Speech and Debate Clause. He got careless and didn’t realize that speech he wrote out isn’t protected outside!
Schumer is in clear violation of these laws, but the question is who will enforce these laws?
Mitch McConnell condemned what he said…
Sen Hawley issued a statement that he will “introduce a motion to censure Sen Schumer for inciting violence against U.S. Supreme Court Justices at a pro-abortion rally in front of the Supreme Court.”
Here’s House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy spoke on the severity and what should happen next..
Schumer should be removed as Senate Minority Leader immediately, and forced to resign from office – but he won’t.
So now what?
Normally we would look to the DOJ to take action, enforce the two laws above. But, since cutting disgraced fmr Deputy FBI Dir Andy McCabe loose, and taking no action against any of the coup conspirators who attempted to remove Pres Trump from office, the DOJ has proven itself to be impotent, incompetent and incredibly BIASED.
What do We the People do with a broken justice system where not even a US Senator who broke the law will be held accountable?
This is very bad for the nation and extremely dangerous precedents over the lawlessness taking place in our nations capital are being made almost daily now. It’s another indicator of the COLD civil war we’re in. All it takes now to set things off is for someone STUPID to act on the words coming from the democrat party. We’ve already had unhinged violent Leftists act out as it is against the GOP in 2017, Rand Paul was attacked in his own yard, several Trump admin officials have been harassed and threatened outside of work, countless stories of Trump supporters being attacked. If anything happens to Justice Gorsuch or Kavanaugh will that be the spark to light the HOT civil war?
