(AmericanProsperity.com) – On Wednesday, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) threatened two conservative Supreme Court Justices in an attempt to de-legitimize the Court.
The Supreme Court is hearing a case about a Louisana law requiring abortion providers to gain admitting privileges to hospitals before providing services.
Speaking at a pro-abortion event on the steps of the Supreme Court, Schumer said that Trump appointed justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh would pay the price if they uphold the law. He further said, “you won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.”
Care to explain yourself, @SenSchumer?
Will any @SenateDems disavow Chuck Schumer's dangerous statements about sitting Supreme Court justices?? pic.twitter.com/PxRoAQYecx

The threat was so serious that Chief Justice John Roberts publicly rebuked Schumer in a written letter. It’s extraordinarily rare that a Chief Justice would take such measures against an elected official. The American Bar Association also chimed in and rebuked Schumer.
On Thursday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) called out Schumer on the Senate floor. There are also calls by Republican Senators to introduce a resolution of censure.
