Chief Justice Roberts

Chief Justice John Roberts condemned Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer in a rare statement on Wednesday after the Senator threatened conservative justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh.

As TGP’s Kristinn Taylor reported, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) threatened two conservative Supreme Court justices as he spoke at a pro-choice rally in front of the Supreme Court Wednesday as the Court heard a Louisiana case on restricting abortion.

Schumer’s threat was a “warning” on how the justices decide on the case.

“I want to tell you Gorsuch! And 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…”

Chief Justice Roberts released a statement calling Schumer’s threats “dangerous” and “inappropriate.”

Full statement:

“This morning, Senator Schumer spoke at a rally in front of the Supreme Court while a case was being argued inside. Senator Schumer referred to two Members of the Court by name and said he wanted to tell that that “You have released a whirlwind, and you will pay the price. You will not know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.” 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. All Members of the Court will continue to do their job, without fear or favor, from whatever quarter.”

Schumer responds:
