Senate Democrats threaten the Supreme Court with retribution over upcoming Second Amendment ruling

  There is a New York Second Amendment case making its way to the Supreme Court and some Senate Democrats have a message for the highest court in the land: either this decision comes down in their favor, which of course means it comes down against the Second Amendment, or they will remake the court by restructuring it. The idea of packing the court has been gaining momentum on the alt-left but now the Senate Democrats are brazenly threatening the Supreme Court.

  Here is more:

Several high-profile Senate Democrats warned the Supreme Court in pointed terms this week that it could face a fundamental restructuring if justices do not take steps to “heal” the court in the near future.

The ominous and unusual warning was delivered as part of a brief filed Monday in a case related to a New York City gun law. Sens. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, Richard Durbin, D-Ill., and Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., referenced rulings by the court’s conservative majority in claiming it is suffering from some sort of affliction which must be remedied.

“The Supreme Court is not well. And the people know it,” the brief said. “Perhaps the Court can heal itself before the public demands it be ‘restructured in order to reduce the influence of politics.'”

  This is truly remarkable! I cannot recall a party in a lawsuit making a threat like this to any court before. I do remember Debbie Wasserman Schultz threatened the Capitol Police Chief but I think even that pales on comparison to trying to intimidate the court because you know you are standing on shaky Constitutional grounds.

  Ironically these Democrats are accusing the Supreme Court of partisanship and is simply asking for more partisanship in the opposite direction, proving they only disapprove of the perceived partisanship because it is not in their favor–but they intend to change that…
