Note to all on the argument if congressional members can be 'impeached".
Impeachment: A charge of misconduct made against the holder of a public office.
The United States CONSTITUTION (Article I, Section 5, Clause 2) provides that "Each House may determine the Rules of its proceedings, punish its members for disorderly behavior, and, with the concurrence of two-thirds, expel a member."
Call it it impeachment or whatever you want - Expulsion is congressional impeachment.

Article I, section 5 of the United States Constitution provides that "Each House [of Congress] may determine the Rules of its proceedings, punish its members for disorderly behavior, and, with the concurrence of two-thirds, expel a member." Actually easier than an impeachment. However, Pelosi will NEVER bring anything against what little power support she has left. Mayhaps, if it becomes a GOP majority, something might happen. I doubt it - but it should.
It is a violation of Federal Law, specifically Title 18, Section 1507 of the U.S. Code, which was enacted in 1950. Under this law, it is illegal to picket or parade in front of a courthouse or a judge’s home "with the intent of interfering with, obstructing, or impeding the administration of justice, or with the intent of influencing any judge." But, of course, a judge may disagree with the plain text of the law. <smh/>

As SCOTUS has already ruled on Dobbs, it can be argued that there was NOT an attempt to influence the judges (justices). To my knowledge they currently have no abortion cases under consideration.
While I would disagree with that argument, the burden is on prosecution, not defense. And I think prosecution would have a hard time PROVING intent to influence.

SSgt (Join to see) SFC Casey O'Mally Its also a fact that the Democrats controlled both the House of Representatives and the Senate in 1950. Yessiree - The Democrats passed and enacted USC Title 18, Section 1507 against vigorous Republican objections. It's almost like ... Karma.
