MSNBC contributor says Samuel Alito should die like Titanic tourists
An MSNBC commentator has called for conservative Supreme Court justice Samuel Alito to die in the same terrible way as the five tourists who perished on an expedition to see the Titanic.
The unhinged threat from Elie Mystal made reference to the doomed passengers who tragically died aboard the Titan submersible.
"Next time some rich white person wants to take Sam Alito on an expensive trip, please take him to see the Titanic,” Mystal wrote in a tweet.
Alito threatened
After being called out for his "vile" rhetoric, Mystal doubled down and tweeted, "this is vile," with a link to Alito's opinion overturning Roe v. Wade last year.
The end of Roe has fueled a ruthless progressive campaign to delegitimize and "reform" the court.
Mystal was reacting to a report in leftist rag ProPublica about a fishing trip Alito took with a wealthy Republican donor. The report came after Democrats spent months breathlessly shrieking about Clarence Thomas' vacations with another Republican donor.
"For months we've seen leftists hellbent on destroying the integrity of our Supreme Court with incessant attacks, but outwardly wishing death on one of our finest Justices is truly beyond the pale," Senator Ted Cruz (R-Tx.) tweeted.
Ghoulish leftists
Meanwhile, the Titan submersible tragedy has unearthed anew the poisonous class envy brimming in the dark heart of the ghoulish left -- with many online "progressives" saying the poor souls who perished, including a 19-year-old, deserved their fate because of their wealth.
The Coast Guard said Thursday that the five passengers are likely dead after debris from a suspected "implosion" was discovered near the Titanic.
The New Republic published an article about the Republican ties of one of the victims, OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, implying he deserved to die because of his politics.
Just joking?
Although his original tweet made a derisive reference to "rich white people," Mystal denied that he was joking about the Titan tragedy after a user called out the tasteless reference.
It's not a joke about people on the sub. It's a joke about the corrupt Supreme Court justice's desire to take expensive vacations for free.

Mystal is a known bomb-thrower with a history of anti-white rhetoric in particular. He once called the Constitution "trash."
“It was written by slavers and colonists and white people who were willing to make deals with slavers and colonists," he said.
