Editorial of The New York Sun | March 6, 2020
What should be done about Senator Schumer’s
threats to two members of the United States Supreme Court? Everyone
agrees that the senator’s words were shocking. Mr. Schumer, while
addressing an abortion rights rally in front of the Court, issued
threats against two justices over a case on abortion. “I want to tell
you, Gorsuch, I want to tell you, Kavanaugh, you have released the
whirlwind, and you will pay the price,” Mr. Schumer boomed..............This is a moment, in our view, for the Supreme Court to clobber the
senator with Title 18 of the United States Code, section 401. Title 18
is the part of our federal law that deals with criminal matters, and
section 401 grants courts the power to punish contempt. The Nine could
move against the senator sua sponte, meaning on the court’s own motion, by issuing a heavy fine, say, or seizing his law license, or worse...............
Which is why it seems to us that this would be an occasion for the Supreme Court to unsheath Section 401. It could start with an order to the Chief United States Marshal to frog march the Senator into the courtroom. The justices could remind him that he is not under the protection of the speech and debate clause, because his threat was issued not inside the Senate but rather from the Court’s own apron. ........To Read More....
My Take - Well, there's only one problem with this. The court is filled with co-conspirators with Schumer and much of the Congress. Leftist traitors.
