Gee, where’s the ABA, ACLU, State Bars et al in this?
By the pond listening to crickets.
WHEN, not if, the stupidity of the citizenry elects a DEMOCRAT/Communist to the Presidency, the Supreme Court WILL be changed. At that point, the government will become a non-government. It becomes something that we must “cut the ties that bind us”.
Violates separation of powers. Man the commies are desparate.
It would be interesting to see if a 6-3 conservative Supreme Court would sit back and allow the Dems to pack 6 more liberals to, overnight, become a 9-6 Leftist court.
I don’t think so. I see two options: Declare whatever law they pass to stack the court unconstitutional, as it is only intended for political reasons, not because of caseload. Second, just don’t swear any of them in, or even let them in the building.
...and don’t get me wrong, the Democrats will DEFINITELY try to stack the Supreme Court the moment they achieve even 50 Democrat Senators. First they’ll immediately kill the legislative filibuster, to get that out of the way, then they’ll vote to pack the court. After that, they’ll add PR and DC as states and take a dozen other steps to assure that Republicans NEVER, EVER, again achieve power. It’s over.
So, for you purists who want to ‘teach a lesson’ to your RINO Senator by sitting out his/her election, keep two things in mind:
1) RINOs are almost always wealthy people, they will be JUST FINE if booted from office. They won’t skip a beat.
2) If the Dems do control all of government, particularly due to some RINOs and/or Trump haters in the GOP losing, then this country is PERMANENTLY LOST. And while you can apologize to your kids for helping engineer your RINO Senator’s defeat to a Democrat, your kids should NEVER FORGIVE YOU for doing such a thing to them - essentially being part of the destruction of the country just as it would have been their turn to enjoy the country they were born into.
Imagine a 25 to 4 conservative majority. Or is that not what the Democrats want?
Can’t argue with that.
Heck. Why not one from each state?
Thanks - there are still some people here that are so fed up, that they simply plan to check out. So I will continue to try to reach them. They do mean well, and WE NEED THEM!
True. I’m with you.
Trump should echo this and make their f’ing heads explode
A law is not needed as the U.S. Constitution sets no number for the court
The Senators’ brief said the court is not well, and unless it heals itself they may have to resort to stacking the courts.
FDR’s dream.

“A law is not needed as the U.S. Constitution sets no number for the court”
It also doesn’t outlaw abortion. Anyway, it will certainly be an interesting fight!
So just shut up and eat your crap sandwich, eh Bob?
I’ll pass. If they cannot support the Constitution as written, they won’t get my vote. Simple enough.
Ok, you can answer to your kids who will want to know why you were COMPLICIT in handing over the country to the AOC types. I won’t have that problem. I’ve ‘invested’ thousands to hopefully prevent that outcome.
...of course that assumes you even have kids.
You pretend there are no candidates available who are actually conservative. A falsehood.
It’s always you Chamber of commerce types who spout this garbage. “Real conservatives aren’t electable...”
FWIW, I have three adult kids, and they vote like I do.
