 Chuck Schumer, Wise Guy

Yet his threats against Supreme Court justices are no laughing matter.

“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.”
— Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) addressing an abortion rights rally on the steps of the U.S. Supreme Court Wednesday

Many years ago, when I was a Special Attorney assigned to one of the U.S. Justice Department’s Organized Crime Strike Forces, my colleagues and I received a series of complaints from the FBI agents who were conducting “rolling surveillances” of the members of the local Mafia family. According to the agents, every time they ran the license tags of the cars driven by the wise guys, the registrations would come back to an automobile dealership.

This made it difficult to establish who was driving which car and effectively thwarted the purpose of the surveillances.

On further investigation, we learned that the dealership ran a side business doing short term car rentals. So, operating on the proven premise that the guys we were following never paid retail for anything, we decided to investigate the dealership’s possible mob ties.

The first step involved sending an IRS Revenue Agent to audit the dealership’s books. The owner of the dealership provided a secluded back office with a desk and chair where the young agent could do his work.

   You'd think a mobbed up NY Senator would know better than threaten Judges.

Excellent piece.  I think I will contact my Senator Dickie Durbin and demand Chuckie be sanctioned in the severest way possible.

Well, at least not in public...

Nothing will happen to Chuckie, and he'll gloat after he gets off the hook without so much as an apology.

It's the GOP's fault for making "gross distortions".

That's been the playbook, lapped up by the presstitutes slobbering love affair with Rats.  That's going to be the spin by the time Fredo Cuomo takes it to the air.

Further down the article:

All of this came to mind Wednesday when I heard Sen. Schumer’s address to the pro-abortion rally on the steps of the Supreme Court in which he warned Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh that “you will pay the price. You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.” The “awful decisions” was an obvious reference to how the justices are expected to rule in the abortion rights case that had occasioned the rally.

Is there any way to interpret these astounding remarks other than as an endeavor to influence a judicial proceeding?

Schumer may have been threatening Gorsuch and Kavanaugh with impeachment. But for purposes of establishing criminal liability that is irrelevant. Under the statute, a threat of any kind made to influence their decisions in an ongoing case is prima facie proof of obstruction of justice. No threat of violence is required.

If I did what Chuckles did I'd be in jail hoping to make bail. There's been a substantial reluctance on the part of the Justice Department to prosecute scofflaws with the Magic D after their names.
