Stop Blaming Kavanaugh For Schumer’s SCOTUS Threats
Some activists in the media and elsewhere tried to downplay the Senate minority leader's remarks by saying they echoed Justice Brett Kavanaugh's words when he expressed concern for the country.

When Democratic leader Sen. Chuck Schumer threatened two sitting Supreme Court justices this week, some reporters and other Democratic politicians attempted to downplay his unprecedented attack by falsely claiming he was echoing what Justice Brett Kavanaugh had said during his contentious confirmation hearing.
Only the completely ignorant or willfully duplicitous person could make such a comparison.
In his hearing, Kavanaugh said he worried about what the partisan attempts to destroy his reputation with horrific and unsubstantiated allegations would mean for the country. Schumer, by contrast, called out Justices Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch by name and said that if they didn’t achieve his preferred pro-abortion outcome in an upcoming ruling, “you will pay the price†and “you won’t know what hit you.â€
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.
