Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) stated to Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett 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.” The reference was to decisions about abortion, the sacred cow of liberals and Leftists, standing as the foundation of modern feminism.
Schumer said, “Now, we stand here today because behind me, inside the walls of this court, the Supreme Court is hearing arguments, as you know, for the first major abortion right cases since [Justice] Kavanaugh and [Justice] Gorsuch came to the bench. We know what’s at stake. Over the last three years, women’s reproductive rights have come under attack in a way we haven’t seen in modern history. From Louisiana, to Missouri, to Texas, Republican legislatures are waging a war on women, all women, and they’re taking away fundamental rights. 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.”
President Trump responded to this threat by saying:
“This is a direct & dangerous threat to the U.S. Supreme Court by Schumer. If a Republican did this, he or she would be arrested, or impeached. Serious action MUST be taken NOW! https://twitter.com/jim_jordan/status/1235306945864663044 …

Today's Left:
First Schumer tells President-elect Trump: "You take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you." Today he threatens 2 Supreme Court justices: "You will pay the price. You won't know what hit you."
As Trump noted if a Republican had said the same, then impeachment would proceed as fast as you could say “Hillary Clinton.” But, with all the legal power that Trump has, he could deliver some heart ache for the first time, to his opponents who use him as a punching bag. All it would take would be for this fast food eater to get the Justice Department to lay criminal charges against Schumer with the weird glasses dangling down his face. It would tie him up for a time. That is what the Trump of all of his tough business man books would do, but, I suppose those books were all ghost written, just like his presidency. Sad, as he would say.
