Black pastors group starts petition urging Congress to censure Schumer

The president and founder of the Coalition of African American Pastors began a petition urging the Senate to censure Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for his threatening remarks aimed at two conservative Supreme Court justices.

“This behavior is an affront to the dignity of the U.S. Senate,” the petition reads. “It perpetuates a sense of division in our nation and encourages radicals to approach political disagreements as a forum for violent action. The Senate should demonstrate that Senator Schumer has gone beyond the bounds of acceptable behavior and take appropriate disciplinary action.”

Schumer, a New York Democrat, was criticized on both sides of the aisle last week for comments directed at Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh that many felt constituted a threat.

Censure is not enough. He threatened 2 Supreme Court Justices. He should be relieved of his leadership.

Once he got criticized he tried to back peddle but he showed everybody what a real hater he really is.

Threatened Two judges by name in front of their court room as they decide a court case. Demanding to decide in his favor or face extreme consequences. He did it at work in front of a crowd his staff organized... remember the phone call? National security, no above the law, politics be damned , quid pro quo.... nothing will happen other then more money in his campaign and that’s why he did
