It has become de rigueur on the Right to openly despise any notion of the Rule of Law as anything other than dead and something to be mocked or mock other over. Indeed, the point is to cause pain “forever”. It’s no surprise, then, that in all irony, those who speak in martial terms of “fighting” now seek to punish their political enemies for “fighting” political rhetoric by launching an investigation the utterance “You have unleashed a whirlwind, and you will pay the price”.
Did Senate Democrat leader Schumer just threaten two conservative justices? Where is the media?

Schumer should not be investigated for making a true threat or creating a þe olde “clear and present danger” anymore than any of Trump’s, or anyone else on the Right, heated rhetoric should lead to a similar investigation. But then, as we are told often enough, “there are not rules” but rather we live in a world with an oppressor/oppressed dynamic.
But irony of ironies, the interim U.S. Attorney who wants to investigate Schumer dismissed 30 prosecutors who prosecuted actual acts undertaken during the Jan. 6th riots.
The hypocrisy continues, as calls to go after House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for saying “we’re gonna fight it in the courts and we’re gonna fight it in the streets” while dismissing the actual rioting from Jan. 6th, even going so far as to call them “a demonstration which did get out of hand” but was “mostly peaceful”.
We still have the Rule of Law, let us not let anyone cut the laws down flat in their desire to destroy the evil they claim besets them.
