preview

Most ReadWe have covered extensively Democrat threats to pack the Supreme Court. Perhaps those plans were just idle threats similar to the threats by Sheldon Whitehouse and Chuck Schumer meant to intimidate the Justices.Well, it appears Democrats may be serious in trying. reports:CONGRESSIONAL DEMOCRATS PLAN&nbsp;to unveil legislation expanding the size of the Supreme Court on Thursday, according to three congressional sources familiar with the closely held measure.The bill would add four seats to the high court, bringing the total to 13, from the current 9. The number of justices on the Court has fluctuated widely throughout the course of the nation’s history. Republicans currently hold 6 seats, while Democrats hold just 3 after the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg and the quick confirmation of Justice Amy Coney Barrett.The bill is led by House Judiciary Committee Chair Jerry Nadler, Subcommittee chair Hank Johnson, and freshman Rep. Mondaire Jones.In the Senate, the bill is being championed by Ed Markey of Massachusetts.This story is developing…We will follow the story as it develops.It’s not clear that Democrats would be able to do this as there are bound to be numerous defections in the Senate, maybe even in the House. but the fact that Democrats are seriously considering it is shocking enough.: just reported that is writing legislation to expand the Supreme Court. asked if it was true. The Chairman wouldn’t answer.Sounds like the Democrats are running away from the bill before it’s even introduced!— House Judiciary GOP (@JudiciaryGOP)Who agrees that we should expand the Supreme Court?— Ed Markey (@EdMarkey)Exciting. Dems are done conceding the courts to GOP. Biden commission is a noble idea but we dont need 6 months of studies to know SCOTUS Is broken. We need Court expansion along with HR1, DC statehood and John Lewis Act to restore our democracy. Let's go— Brian Fallon (@brianefallon)Our democracy is under assault, and the Supreme Court has dealt the sharpest blows.To restore power to the people, we must .That's why I'm introducing the Judiciary Act of 2021 with , , and to add four seats to SCOTUS.— Rep. Mondaire Jones (@RepMondaire)This is such a fantastic gift to the NRSC. And making it a bill instead of a Senate rules process means we get to get moderate House D's on the record on it too. Just a fantastic turn of events.— Matt Whitlock (@mattdizwhitlock)Donations tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law.,Tags:,|Nothing short of revolting……. folks, here comes the USSA.|What isn’t there to be disgusted at|This is the d/progressive version of ‘failure theatre’ that was perfected under Paul Ryan.This is not going to pass in the Senate. DOA.|Not shocking enough.|why would one do this unless one plans on putting bias judges on the SCOTUSand our lord and Master John Roberts has told us that bias judges don’t existso what’s the friggin point ??|“It’s not clear that Democrats would be able to do this as there are bound to be numerous defections in the Senate, maybe even in the House…”Don’t bet the farm on that. The chances of even one Communist defecting are practically nil.But even if the Sun rose in the west and a Communist Congresscritter did betray the Glorious Communist Revolution (TM) and vote against court packing, there stands a host of Franz von Papen Republicans eager to virtue-signal in exchange for a corporate golden parachute.Don’t be surprised if court-packing gets 10-20 GOP votes in favor regardless of how the Communists vote. The Biden* administration’s nominees have been sailing through the Senate, often with one or two dozen Republican votes to pad the margin.|What’s to prevent the Republicans, the next time they have power, reducing the court again?Oh. They’re Republicans. Never mind.|They keep this crap up and the cure is going to be awful.|I just reset my American democracy doomsday clock to one minute before mushroom cloud.|One of these days – sooner than later – when there are no more cheeks to turn, the words “Them’s fightin’ words” will be more than just words. I guess we’re not there quite yet.|By the numbers the Communists have razor-thin margins in the House and Senate. Which means every major vote should be a cliff-hanger.But so far whatever the Communists have proposed or nominated has passed easily – sometime with heavy GOP support.So why should court-packing be any different?|Keep this up and they’re going to get more events like the alleged riot at the capitol. And they’ll deserve it.|The change-making difference since 1937 being that now the Dems aren’t afraid of the ballot box consequences like they were then, because now they’ll just steal the ensuing elections.|The day this bill passes is the day the shooting needs to start|Every proposal is a probe to see what resistance there is. The Soviets did that as did all of our adversaries. They will push until there is real pushback. They can taste supreme and uncontested control of the country.|In 10 or 20 years, the building will need to be rebuilt to house all of the justices from court inflation. That just seems so bad for the environment that the Dems are all worried about.|Not surprising. The democrats control two of the constitutional branches of government (executive, legislative), the non-constitutional administrative branch, and are in the process of purging the military of anyone that might have “wrong think” against the current regime. So the democrats have to work at taking over the last branch of government that has the ability (power?) to stop their unconstitutional power grab. The judicial branch. Once the democrats control the judicial then the game’s up. Anything, I repeat, anything the democrats do will be legal. And there will be no stopping them imposing their agenda on the country.|“The number of justices on the Court has fluctuated widely throughout the course of the nation’s history.”It’s been unchanged since 1869.|Nazi’sAmerica is a fascist country now. Has been long in the making with Corporations paying no taxes. Unmasked with Obama and “Public Private Partnership’Stole the election then the 1/6 Reichstag fire.|To those saying it’s DOA upon arrival in the Senate, don’t bet against Schumer shoving it through. Even if it blows up the Senate, the Dems will do it.The next time the Republicans have unitary control of Congress and the White House, they’ll expand it by 8 more seats. And they should.And in less than a decade, SCOTUS will go from 9 to 13 to 21, and it’ll keep on going.|I predict the numbers of democrats in the Senate are reduced suddenly and permanently.|I don’t know why they’d bother. They already have an effective 5-4 court, except on a few minor decisions and Roberts has already proven that he won’t even let Gorsuch or Barrett vote on anything significant.|I keep saying it: we’d better start discussing secession before we’re enslaved.|Dems: No, we’re not going to raise your taxes, Trump is a tyrant who rams things through without the legislature and refuses to compromise, why would we ever want more than nine Supreme Court justices—- Election happens—Fifty new executive orders as fast as Joe can sign, raise taxes to the roof, ram through trillions in spending without a single Republican vote, and stuff the Supreme Court like a pillow…|There can’t be anyone shocked Democrats going more Communist. They told you before the election they were going to do it, why wouldn’t they now do it?Once the hive mind sets a goal, all work to it.|I have a lot of anger toward the court after 2020. Put 100 more on the court and make it a joke. An official rubber stamp. their rulings should be ignored because they have no standing in their own words and deeds.|Before November 2020: The “Transition Integrity Project” and others were working to erect a “color revolution” – they’d learned their lesson in 2016 and weren’t going to make the same mistake twice. Many in the GOPe were probably aware of the plans, and cooperated, though had to maintain plausible deniability.November 3-7 2020: The color revolution was executed, albeit not without some last minute adjustments as Trump’s support was much more massive than anticipated.November 2020 -January 2021: Corrupt and compromised courts and legislators – compromised by both our intelligence agencies and the CCP, which in turn has compromised our intelligence agencies – across the land followed orders. Our Constitutional Republic was displaced, with only a kabuki theater remnant of its structure left in place to maintain “plausible deniability” that we were now under the Biden-Harris Junta.January – April: like all totalitarian regimes, it is moving to consolidate power as quickly as possible, before effective resistance (counterrevolutionaries a/k/a patriots) can get organized.|I keep thinking of the children’s claymation movie (but cartoons and claymation movies were made for adults – if you note the humor) “Chicken Run,” is a kids movie that paralleled the story of “The Great Escape.”In it the chicken farm (prison camp commanders) owners, Mr. Tweedy, a lovable, bumbling , barely successful husband discovers the (prisoners) Chickens are planning an escape. ”He shouts to his wife, the overbearing Mrs. Tweedy, who can’t see what’s happening. “Mrs. Tweedy! Mrs. Tweedy, The chickens are revolting!”And then the punch line. “Finally, something we can agree on….”Our betters believe the citizens/keepers of liberty are revolting. They mistakenly let us know how they felt, when Hillary Clinton called us “deplorables.” They sure seem hell bent to find out if we will revolt.|I agree with TxVet. They have a 5/4 margin now.Besides the court has been destroying the country for 100 years, a little here, a little there. So, whatever. Biden is making us Central America, so what’s a little more banana-republicking?|The Democrats will pass the bill. Even if Manchin objects, they will simply wait for a COVID induced GOP vacancy or two.But there are risks, even for them. Suppose they pass the bill, and then Joe Biden dies. Harris is President and the VP is vacant. Her VP appointment must be confirmed by a 50:50 Senate without a tiebreaker, and McConnell holds the VP slot vacant as long as he can. Suppose COVID cooperates and there are no more GOP vacancies. Then the GOP regains the Congress in the Midterms. Then if Trump comes back in 2024, he makes the 4 new appointments.|I challenge any Dhimmi-crat to contend that their vile Party is not brazenly, gleefully and obnoxiously totalitarian, in its ethos, its agenda, its apparatchiks’ imperially arrogant, caudillo-like behavior and its contempt for the rule of law and the U.S. Constitution.|What I dont quite understand is the prempting of the commission on this very subject?|A functioning GOP would reply by saying they’ll then add six the next time they’re in power.And after that ask the fascists if they really want to play that game.|Democrats are so un-democratic. Besides, they are such babies. They had the Supreme Court from the ’40s through the ’80sy, at which time it became essentially split until now. They just can’t stand to lose power.|“Our democracy is under assault, and the Supreme Court has dealt the sharpest blows.To restore power to the people, we must #ExpandTheCourt.That’s why I’m introducing the Judiciary Act of 2021 with @RepJerryNadler, @RepHankJohnson, and @SenMarkey to add four seats to SCOTUS.— Rep. Mondaire Jones (@RepMondaire) April 15, 2021″Why do even “conservatives” cede the language to leftists? There is no such thing as “our democracy.” Read our founding documents until your brains fall out and you’ll never find the word democracy or any variant. You will find another word for another type of government.“Article 4, Section 4: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened), against domestic Violence.”The founders rejected democracy as perhaps the worst form of government. As we are seeing, they were right. We need to make the word “democrat” synonymous with the words “subversive” and “traitor.” Because that’s what the democrats are. And when elected democrats took their oath of office they lied and swore a false oath to the Constitution when they swore to uphold and defend it from all enemies foreign and domestic.Let them prove us right when they defame and insult the United States founders who wrote it.Like this, uhh, creature:So, if they think “white supremacy” is woven into our founding documents then, one more time, they clearly lied when they took their oaths of office.Donations tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law.OUR LAWYERClose WindowFont ResizeA-A+Keyboard NavigationEnable Readable FontContrast ModeChoose Color ButtonblackwhitegreenblueredorangeyellownaviUnderline LinksHighlight LinksClear Selected OptionsGreyscale ImagesInvert ColorsRemove AnimationsRemove StylesLights Off ModeClose WindowX
