Threatening Judges?

Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-NY) has publicly threatened by name two recent Supreme Court justices - Gorsuch and Kavanaugh - with what sounds like personal injury, if not actual physical violence. He has been censured by Chief Justice Roberts, after which Schumer doubled down, according to Majority Leader McConnell.

Free speech is not an unlimited right. Isn’t there applicable law banning the coercing of judges to rule in particular fashion? I’d like to see a perp walk in Chuckie’s future.

At the least Schumer should lose his leadership position. In a just world he would lose his Senate seat and perhaps his freedom.
