Roberts criticizes Schumer for 'dangerous' remarks on Kavanaugh, Gorsuch
By Harper Neidig - 03/04/20 05:15 PM EST

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts responded to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's (D-N.Y.) comments about two conservative justices on Wednesday, calling the remarks "dangerous."

"Justices know that criticism comes with the territory, but threatening statements of this sort from the highest levels of government are not only inappropriate, they are dangerous," Roberts said in a statement. "All Members of the Court will continue to do their job, without fear or favor, from whatever quarter."

As the court was hearing oral arguments in a major abortion case Wednesday morning, Schumer warned of a "whirlwind" for conservative Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch if they moved to roll back abortion rights.


“I want to tell you Justice Kavanaugh and Justice Gorsuch, you have unleashed a whirlwind, and you will pay the price,” Schumer said at a rally outside the court. “You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.

'You will pay the price': Schumer threatens Kavanaugh and Gorsuch as Supreme Court hears abortion case

Sen. Chuck Schumer took aim at Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch, promising to make them "pay" as the pair is set to rule on abortion regulations.

"I want to tell you Gorsuch, I want to tell you Kavanaugh: You have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price," the New York Democrat said Wednesday at a rally for abortion rights. "You won't know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions."

What if you or I were to threaten a Supreme Court Judge, (or two)?

These are the same people, Outraged over Trump trying to interfere in the justice system!

Just imagine Mitch McConnell saying something unhinged like this to justices Sotomayor, Kagan, or Ginsburg?

John Haywood said if that happened, every elected Republican would spend the next two weeks fending off hordes of reporters demanding to know if they support threatening Supreme Court justices who disagree with their political agenda.

But Schumer will get a complete pass from the media, who will ignore his comments and just keep running non-stop election and coronavirus coverage.

At the very least .. This nut should be Red Flagged.

If there was any justice left, the United States Senate would remove Senator Schumer over this but the most WE can hope for is censure and I strongly doubt we will get even that!

Dangerous rhetoric.  Statesmanship and decorum by our leaders is diminished further with each instance such as this.  It feeds the unthinking and fuels moronic behavior.  I dislike Schumer passionately but I would have thought better of him.  Wow.

Schumer spokesman Justin Goodman quickly responded by accusing Roberts of bias

[…] “For Justice Roberts to follow the right wing’s deliberate misinterpretation of what Sen. Schumer said, while remaining silent when President Trump attacked Justices Sotomayor and Ginsberg last week, shows Justice Roberts does not just call balls and strikes.” […]

Schumer has shown exactly how low he will stoop and how dangerous he truly is to this country and the DEM party as a whole has repeatedly demonstrated that they have no problem with intimidation, false accusations and mob rule in order to get their way. Unbelievable that a sitting U.S. senator would threaten a SCOTUS justice; in fact two!

Doesn't surprise me in the least @mrclose as he knows nothing will be done about it in the House of Lords!

We have one Democrat presidential candidate who thinks he should have to power to take over the entire healthcare and energy sector, another who thought it was an appropriate use of executive power to dictate how large a soft drink you could buy, another who covered his son's blatant graft and corruption by threatening a foreign government with the withholding of foreign aid, a Democrat Senate minority leader who thinks it's appropriate to make overt threats against SCOTUS appointees over decisions they have not yet rendered, and a Democrat Speaker of the House who has openly vowed to remove a duly elected president by any means necessary.

Essentially, one half of our two-party system is now effectively a hostile power.

And the divisions deepen...

The more they push the closer things come to open rebellion.

The coastal city dwellers have no clue how weak their position is if push comes to shove.

They have no direct local resources for food, water or power.

Maybe now Chief Justice Roberts has a better idea of what he's up against and will scrutinize the left side of issues before him a bit more critically.

Chuckie is a Jew AND a Dim,so he is immune from criticism by the media as well as anyone in politics that wants to hold his or her office.

@mrclose

NOT going to happen to a Jewish Senator from NYC. MAYBE if he were a gentile from some place like Souix Falls or some other place in "Fly Over Country",but not somebody like Chuckie,who is from the center of the civilized universe.

[bigheadfred]

One day closer.

[240B]

Schumer is obviously goading the many violent and crazy Leftists to do harm to Kavanaugh and Gorsuch if they do not rule the way Schumer wants them to. He is implicitly telling them that he will have their backs if they get charged.

And he will. Look what happened to the guy who tried and failed to kill Rand Paul. All he got was a slap on the hand and a few weeks in jail. Look at the Antifa Brownshirts violently attacking random people on the street and were never even charged.

Crazy violent Leftists take note of these things.

[skeeter]

One day closer.

If Trump said anything like this they’d already have articles of impeachment out of the House.

Maybe decades ago it was like that. But today being Jewish is a liability not a shield. There are members of Congress who are openly, loudly and proudly, antisemitic and they are rewarded, not censured, by the Democrat leadership.

Being a huge Liberal from New York is favorable with the press, being Jewish however, not so much anymore with the New Democrats (fascists).

You do know that NAZI, who were also allied with the Muslims, is a German acronym for National Socialists which is what the Democrat Party has become.

@240B

Of course. The Nazis and the Soviets had a mutual defense contract to come to the aid of either if they were attacked. Stalin even leased up a HUGE tract of Russia for the Nazis to develop their weapons and tactics,out of site of the west because they were forbidden from developing or having offensive weapons.

They even agreed to invade Poland together,and split it between them.

Nazism and Hitler didn't become evil until the day they invaded the USSR.

[txradioguy]

1) Nice to see the Chief Justice remembered where he stashed his spine in the Judges Chambers.

2) Schumer's comments are dangerous inciteful of violence and he should have a visit paid to him by the FBI and/or the Secret Service.

Trump has completely broken the DNC and every Democrat member of Congress.  It's official now.

[240B]

Trump has completely broken the DNC and every Democrat member of Congress.  It's official now.

He has driven them out of the closet and into the light.
They now say publicly what they have historically always tried to hide.
They are vicious, violent, and deeply anti-American.
They no longer run away from this description.
As you said, Trump is driving them insane.
There is no way to tell what they will do (Congress and the Public) when Trump is reelected.
