How is threatening judges not a blatant overreach of power? Why is it okay to threaten an entire branch of government for acting on behalf of the citizens of this country? I find it astounding that any member of Congress could support this type of threat to democracy. Impeachments are for inappropriate conduct not differences of opinion. When a judge can no longer challenge any matter coming from the other 2 branches, we no longer have checks and balances of power. In spite of the many claims that there is a citizen’s mandate by the past election, there is still a rule of law. Republicans still only barely won. There was no landslide. Johnson is way out of line in his judicial comments in a way that should scare you, my representative. Do not fail your obligation to protect the constitution. Do not turn our nation into a dictatorship run by billionaires.
