Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-N.Y.) threats against two Supreme Court justices were “astonishingly reckless” and “dangerous,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) charged on the Senate floor on Thursday.
“I want to tell you, Gorsuch, 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,” Schumer said on March 4 in a speech to pro-abortion activists outside the Supreme Court in Washington. Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh sit on the nation’s highest court.
