Chucky Schumer threatened the SCOTUS yesterday.
This from George Parry, former federal prosecutor, as he calls out Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for his threat against Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh:
”Is there any way to interpret these astounding remarks other than as [a criminally unlawful] 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.
The senator’s actions warrant either an arrest or, at the very least, a formal investigation for endeavoring to obstruct justice. They could also warrant similar treatment for threatening to assault the justices, since on its face Schumer’s remark regarding “what hit you” could also be understood as a threat of violence or as an incitement to the crazies who infest our bitterly divided society to take action.
After all, as Schumer should be aware, it wasn’t that long ago that the Republican House of Representatives baseball team was gunned down by a deranged Bernie Sanders supporter.”

That's boldness, action should be taken for sure, but they won't
It should come as no surprise that the left will wave this off as irrelevant and nonconsequential.
