Well, I should have seen this coming, but I didn’t. Even I underestimate the willingness of the Democrats to use the threat of violence to force compliance with their demands. According to both Senators Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley, 15 Democrats from the Judiciary Committee have sent a letter to the Appropriations Committee asking that funding for the security that defends the lives of the Supreme Court Justices and their families be denied until the Court buckles to the demands of the Democrats.

Well, two can play at that game. Chuck 'You' Schumer, security? gone. How 'bout launching an ethics probe on you? Clean as a whistle? Yeah, sure.

Sure, clear the way for totalitarian rule by removing constitutional law protection.

The Left is very clearly and pointedly conveying a mission statement to the most wreckless and brainwashed of their revolutionaries. They will not stop.

I'm assuming the liberal judges will maintain their protection. Who knows if some crazed MAGA Republican might throw an egg at their house? Conservative justices (and their families) are screwed, however.

This is out of control. The Democrat leaders can put a stop to this, if they have any sense of propriety. These Democrats are such cry babies when they don't get their way. If they don't clean up their act, the roof is going to come crashing down on them, and it won't be pretty. And yes, appropriations come from the House. Let's see the Senate Dems stop that money for the justices.

Once again, the Dems, when they have even a smidgen of power, wield it like there is no tomorrow. Whereas Republicans are in control and oh Senator Graham- where are those hearings you promised on the Kavanaugh spectacle of a confirmation hearing?

Here you have 15 terrorists that should at minimum lose their citizenship and be thrown out of the country.

I think the Communists smell blood in the water.
Today, defunding Supreme Court security. (And helping Pakistani trans “youts “)
Yesterday, flooding our country with illegals, funding Ukraine’s pension funds…..
Tomorrow, implementing the last vestiges of gas for heating and cooking, and gas for cars.
The destruction continues apace.

Name the 15, article author.
Those of us who want to know who are death-dealing traitors will do a search, but it would have been nice to know the names immediately.

Who's the party of violence? I don't see the Conservatives threatening the three left wing hacks in the SCOTUS.

How about removing security for all 535 members of congress, and the 100 senators while you are at it? Live like the rest of us DC.

#1 nails it. Turnabout is fair play. Link security spending for Supreme Court justices to security for Senators.

Hey Merrick, this sounds like a threat to me. How about you take a look at this?

I suspect Senate Democrats are looking for someplace else to send Senator Fetterman.

I agree turnabout is Fair play. Start digging into the lives of those involved in this Witch Hunt. Also, pass a Bill to make it ILLEGAL to parade within 10 Blocks of a Supreme Court Justice's Home! Oh yeah, there already might be something like that on the Books. Ok, ARREST anyone who shows up to do such a thing. Throw the Book at them, fine them and keep them in Jail until the fine is paid! Back to Schumer and His party of Thugs. Start digging for info on ALL of them. And also, if the Justice don't get Security, neither should members of Congress! Lets call it a Standoff!!

Yet we have to keep on paying for security for Hunter Biden and the rest of the Biden Crime Family.

#6 applied when the Left respected the Constitution's division of powers. That came to a screeching halt under Obie, though the seeds of its demise sprouted under either Bubba or Bush 41.

Dems' continue to lust after total control over the USA's Justice Dept.. THAT idea alone exposes their party has jumped the shark into their goal of tyranny, which is the TOTAL opposite of tyranny. Remember, "America is great because America is good. If America ever ceases to be good it will no longer be great."
