Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer threatened conservative Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh on Wednesday over abortion.
Speaking at a Planned Parenthood rally outside of the Court in Washington D.C., Schumer launched a veiled threat at the two Justices over how they may vote in an upcoming abortion-related case.
I want to tell you Justice Kavanaugh and Justice Gorsuch: You have unleashed a whirlwind, and you will pay the price, Schumer yelled to a cheering audience.

Did Senate Democrat leader Schumer just threaten two conservative justices? Where is the media?

You wont know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions! Schumer added.
This comes as the Supreme Court is set to hear a case Wednesday about a law in Louisiana that requires abortion doctors to have admitting privileges to local hospitals.
Democrat State Senator Katrina Jackson, the sponsor of the bill, argues that it will protect women with emergency medical care in case of abortion complications.
But pro-choice advocates say the bill will restrict womens access to abortions.
What is happening in Louisiana is part of a dangerous national trend, Planned Parenthood said on its website. With these same dangerous restrictions enacted in neighboring states, the United States is becoming a country where a womans ability to make personal medical decisions without interference from politicians will be dependent upon where she lives.
This will be the first abortion-related case heard by the two new Justices chosen by President Trump.
Given Supreme Court Justices serve lifetime appointments and arent faced with elections, its unclear how exactly they would pay the price.
Chief Justice John Roberts issued a response, charging that Schumers threats are not only inappropriate, they are dangerous.
Justices know that criticism comes with the territory, but threatening statements of this sort from the highest levels of government are not only inappropriate, they are dangerous, Robert wrote.
All Members of the Court will continue to do their job, without fear or favor, from whatever quarter.
Schumer is no stranger to veiled threats.
In 2017, Schumer hinted that the intelligence community would come after Trump following his historic election if he didnt play ball with the establishment.
You take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you, so even for a practical supposedly hard-nosed businessman hes being really dumb to do this, Schumer had said on MSNBC.

This demented old man is heaving against the lintels of the state in his waning days. I do believe they will be too weighty for him. Perhaps he may rouse some of his similarly ugly fellows to aid him.
Such a sick old fool has been elected by the people of New York to serve them in the Senate where he commands ghosts he sees that are not there.

Supreme Court justices were threatened in broad daylight! By a leading high-profile US Senator (D), no less!
Most people either haven't even heard Schumer's Twitter threat, dismiss the account, or just plain don't believe it.
This is exactly the kind of threat even the Mafia knew to make ONLY in private company:
"You have unleashed a whirlwind, and you will pay the price. You wont know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions!"
(It was also odd that Schumer chose a Biblical scripture -- "unleashed whirlwind", Hosea 8:7. WHY?)
Was Schumer also speaking as a Deep State, aka "intel communitah" messenger of revenge back in 2017 as well?:
Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you, Schumer told MSNBC's Rachel Maddow.

HUH??
How are Planned Parenthood, Baby Murder Inc, and DEMONCRATS able to twist obvious lies and evil into some kind of inverted virtue?
Oh, that's right:
Isaiah 5:20
"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!"
