Lawrence Tribe Slams Schumer For Call To Mob Violence
Lawrence Tribe ^ | 3/5/2020

Posted on 03/04/2020 7:52:52 PM PST by Helicondelta

These remarks by @SenSchumer were inexcusable. Chief Justice Roberts was right to call him on his comments. I hope the Senator, whom I’ve long admired and consider a friend, apologizes and takes back his implicit threat. It’s beneath him and his office.

No apologies...this CANNOT be undone. His sycophants CHEERED his remarks and would have no qualms about putting his words into action. Toss him out, strip him of his seat and his license then bring federal charges. He should be made an example of otherwise they will be emboldened to do far more than words resulting in injury or worse.

Good judgment is the result of experience and experience is the result of bad judgment.

When has a demonrat ever apologized for anything. I didn’t think anyone could be nastier than Hairy Read, but Chucky has proved me wrong, C’mon republicans at least censure this outrageous piece of crap.

Imagine yourself in court, talking to the judge like that. Or the jurors. Addressing them personally, by surname only, and saying if they decide unfavorably they won’t know what hit them.
Schumer is in the protected class. Even the reproaches of the President and the Chief Justice of the United States will roll off Schumer’s back.

This is not losing Tribe, my friend. This is Tribe stepping in to protect Schumer. He criticizes his words and then calls for him to “apologize”. Thus, attempting to give Schumer a way out. Tribe realizes his buddy stepped in it and is stepping in to try to help him out.

I thought it was a Federal Crime to threaten a Federal official. Will Schumer get an early morning raid like Stone did?

1. Chuck Schumer’s direct threats today against two Supreme Court justices absolutely does endanger them. The Chief Justice said as much. Schumer also insisted that the justices rule on an active case as he demands.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) March 5, 2020

2. Schumer should be sanctioned by the Bar, admonished by the Senate, investigated by the Senate ethics committee, and even reviewed by the DOJ. No individual, let alone the Senate Democrat leader, who is also a lawyer, should escape accountability for his loathsome conduct.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) March 5, 2020

Quoting Sarah Barracuda:

USC §§6134 & 6137(a) make it a federal crime to utter threatening language on the grounds of the Supreme Court. CHARGE SCHUMER WITH A CRIME!!

Why not tomorrow morning DOJ/FBI show up at his door with 29 Swat members and and Fox News in tow — Worked for Stone’s arrest.

Schmucky Schumer has been threatening the US Supreme Court, President Trump, members of the Republican Party and frankly the American People for decades now.

It's high time he was hauled out of office and shown the contempt he so richly deserves.

“Gee, just used to saying just about anything and not being challenged by my brain dead constituents or the media. Guess I just got carried away a bit. But please, please don’t arrest me! I really didn’t threaten those judges. Well not really. But please don’t arrest me.The other prisoners would be very, very mean.”

Of which none will actually happen.

Schumbag will give a half-assed apology and all will be forgotten as if it never happened.
