of their home, as do their families who aren’t in public life.
I particularly condemned protesting against Supreme Court justices, specifically to try to change their votes. That undermines the independence of our judicial system and is a danger to the rule of law.
But Democrats like Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) thought it was just great; heck, she encouraged it.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer also threatened the justices, like Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, in the past, because he disagreed with their decisions, saying that they had reaped the “whirlwind” and would “pay the price.”
“You won’t know what hit you!” Schumer proclaimed.
Then, of course, there was an assassination attempt against Kavanaugh, after the Democrats had participated in whipping up all this hatred against the justices.
So, in what has to be considered some supreme irony, the leftist whirlwind that Schumer is frequently whipping up against others showed up at his doorstep on Friday night over the Israel-Hamas war.
Hundreds of protesters arrived at his home last night, demanding an end to the war and calling for a ceasefire. They were organized by “Jewish Voice for Peace” — a leftist anti-Israel group. Schumer is on his way to Israel, and they doubtless were trying to influence his thoughts.
Among the group were two socialist NY Assembly members, Zohran Kwame Mamdani and Marcela Mitaynes.
They were among the 100 who were arrested and piled into two buses. Sources in the report indicated that they would be issued summons for blocking traffic.
But it’s just another example of how the left will eat their own, if they vary from the radical policies.
Many pointed out the disparity in response with how the Democrats and the police dealt with protests against Supreme Court justices, invoking the two-tiered system of justice.
I guess what Schumer said about being cool with protests outside his house was just a bunch of malarkey.
He asked for it and he got it and it’s deserved. Scummy isn’t worth the air he wastes but the children keep electing him so it’s their problem.
