Let's get this straight.
Two leading Senate Judiciary Democrats are sending an ex parte letter to a judge on pending cases before a court.
Then they leak their letter to one of their political allies.
@SenWhitehouse and @SenatorDurbin didn't follow the normal procedures, including filing a public pleading through the court clerk's office that gets posted to the public docket.
They didn't copy the counsel for the parties.
They're demanding the recusal of another judge.
They're even demanding a private meeting with a judge on pending cases.
And these Senate Judiciary Democrats are threatening the court with punitive actions, if the court doesn't do what they demand.
Sheldon Whitehouse has outdone himself with his insane, unethical behavior.
Dick Durbin should be ashamed he went along with this.
And if Whitehouse and Durbin believe Trump shouldn't have presidential immunity from criminal prosecution for his official acts, do they believe the Trump 47 Justice Department should charge them with obstruction of justice for their highly inappropriate letter to the Supreme Court on the pending Fischer and Trump presidential immunity cases?

This is part of a dangerous pattern of obstruction of justice by @SenWhitehouse.
In 2019, Sheldon Whitehouse filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court--as the attorney of record for @maziehirono, @SenBlumenthal, @SenatorDurbin, and @SenGillibrand--threatening to pack the Court if the Court didn't rule his way on a gun case.
Sheldon Whitehouse's brief was so unhinged that he even managed to receive public condemnation from (slightly-less-unhinged) @tribelaw.
Sheldon Whitehouse should have his membership in the Supreme Court bar suspended.
He's a dangerous, unethical demagogue (and lunatic).
He's an embarrassment to the legal profession.
