Over the weekend, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer attacked President Trump for “trying to intimidate judges.”
In an appearance on Al Sharpton’s MSNBC show, Schumer repeated the Democrat narrative that President Trump is causing a Constitutional crisis and threatening judges.
Of course, this is incredibly ironic coming from Schumer…
Anyone remember the time Schumer threatened SCOTUS back in 2020?
“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.”
That wasn’t President Trump talking…
No, it was Chuck Schumer talking about two Supreme Court justices!

The hypocrisy is thick here.
Real Clear Politics has a transcript of Schumer’s appearance on Sharpton’s show:
AL SHARPTON: Immigration advocates have been warning we are on the verge of a constitutional crisis. Has that crisis arrived, Senator?
SEN. CHUCK SCHUMER: Yes! It has, unfortunately. Because what? Trump wants to be king. A king doesn’t have a constitution. A king just does whatever he wants and beyond. He just goes along with them.
They’re trying to intimidate judges. This is not the first time or the second. They’ve said they want to impeach judges. They said they’re going to go after judges who don’t agree with them. That is so against the Constitution. The Constitution believes and has been written with the wisdom of the Founding Fathers, that we should have separation of powers. There should be an independent judiciary. When you go before a judge, you think that you hope and believe that that judge is impartial. What Trump, Bondi, and the whole Justice Department are trying to do is push that judge, threaten that judge, so the judge is no longer impartial. It is outrageous in both cases.
During the same interview, Schumer also shot down ideas that he is going to step aside as Democrat Senate leader.
Nope, Schumer is not planning on going anywhere.
Chuck Schumer says he’s not retiring:
“I’m staying put because I’ve been able to unite my caucus in a very strong fight against Trump.”
Imagine thinking your number one job qualification is fighting the man the American people just elected in an electoral landslide. Shameful. pic.twitter.com/bP1aH5Mo7n
