D-N.Y., faced widespread mockery after launching a tipline to “expose corruption, abuses of power, and threats to public safety.”

On Monday, Schumer shared a link calling on “whistleblowers” to report violations, arguing they “are a vital part of Congressional oversight to hold the administration accountable.” The categories whistleblowers can report include “retaliation,” “wasteful spending,” “fraud,” “criminal activity,” and “other.”

“Today, I’m calling on our brave public servants,” the Senate ********* Leader wrote as he shared the tipline form on X. “I’m launching a new portal for anyone who wants to expose corruption, abuses of power, and threats to public safety with the legal protections of being a whistleblower.”

The new project was shredded by a wide variety of commentators online.

“I want to tell you, Gorsuch. I want to tell you, Kavanaugh. You have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price!”

. “You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.”

Judicial Network president Carrie Severino noted his mention of “’Threats to public safety…’” and wrote, “This is rich coming from Senator Schumer, who stood on the steps of the Supreme Court and threatened Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, saying they would ‘pay the price’ for exercising judicial review.”

The Federalist editor-in-chief Mollie Z. Hemingway responded with a screenshot of a lengthy report she was filing using the tipline to call out Schumer for either “retaliation” or “criminal activity.”

“Wild that you’re recruiting government employees involved in the corruption to target the people exposing the corruption,” market analyst and political commentator Jeff Carlson wrote. “Public Servant is a pretentious term for people who went into government because they knew the graft pays well.”
