Breaking: House and Senate DEMOCRATS rolling out bill to ADD FOUR JUSTICES to The Supreme court
TG ^ | 4/14/2021 | Evan

Posted on 04/14/2021 5:18:16 PM PDT by wrrock

DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS Intend To Unveil a Bill to Expand The Number of Supreme Court Justices on Thursday, according to three legislative sources familiar with the bill.

The bill would increase the number of justices on the Supreme Court from nine to thirteen.

Republicans currently hold 6 seats, while Democrats hold just 3 after the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg and the confirmation of Justice Amy Coney Barrett.

The bill is sponsored 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.

Ole Pence, gotta love that idiot.

I would’ve thought, that the 4yrs of the Trump presidency would’ve woke people up to what was really going on.

The GOP had the greatest leader they have had in decades, we the people showing support by the millions all over the nation, and all the GOP did was stonewall, block, and other ways try to stop everything Trump was doing for we the people.

And here we are, many right here on a site named “FREE REPUBLIC”, still telling us that we just need to vote for more GOP’s.

Why? So the dems don’t win? The gop and dems are one in the same. They sit in smokey backrooms together, laughing at us, lighting their cigars off the $100 bills of our productivity.

I remember a quote that I heard long ago. That this time we live in is a weird time. “To late to do anything about it, too early to start shooting”. If history has taught us anything, it is that this timeframe always comes to an end, and rarely is it pretty for anyone.

More like 11-2. And that is only as long as Alito and Thomas stay, which won’t be very long. The 13-0

ACB pretty much made Roberts irrelevant. Still don’t understand her and BK not taking up the TX case.:(

But it’s the Supreme Court they are adding justices to.

NP - When the Republicans retake the Senate, pass a bill to add 100 judges to the SC.

And now you know, if you didn’t already, why we have a second amendment...

Ha! Wishful thinking.

Do you honestly think that the Rs will EVER retake the senate, after HR/SB 1 passes?

“We voted. Doesn’t matter.”

I’m glad you voted - others here didn’t care anymore, so I just like to remind them that things can get worse, much worse, and they STILL haven’t given a good reason to explain why they helped the Democrats win (by staying home). But as long as people defend them, I’ll continue to remind them as things get worse, and worse.

Does the right hand know what the left hand is doing?

Oh yeah, it is just that the more radical of the two hands intends to move a lot quicker than Joe.

The hand that is in a rush is the group Pelosi was trying to calm when she talked pre-election about using the 25th A. She wasn't thinking about using it on Trump.

Easy! Tell Hank Johnson that SCOTUS will capsize if too many justices lean to the left.

If this happens the Second Amendment will be on life support.

Maybe it's time to start using the second amendment for its intended purpose? I mean, who's going to stop the left. They stole the election outright, and now want to consolidate their power OVER the people. They MUST be stopped.

Let the bodies hit the floor...

And if this goes through, it will be 7-6 their side majority.

It's already 6-3 against the constitution.

Moving at warp speed. Imagine if the Republicans held both houses...they’d be bickering over what water is served in chambers.
