Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) apologized he made remarks critical of two conservative Supreme Court justices that some interpreted as a threat.
“I should not have used the words I used yesterday. They didn’t come out the way I intended to. My point was that there would be political consequences—political consequences—for President [Donald] Trump and Senate Republicans if the Supreme Court, with the newly confirmed justices, stripped away a woman’s right to choose,” he remarked on the Senate Floor.
