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.

Well, that would soon lead to the attempted takeover by judicial folks being brought to a halt. Pride goes...and all of that.

True. Seems they no longer are concerned with the US Constitution. From a Republic to a Democracy. Democracy is, of course, mob rule.

"This wouldn’t even be an issue if it wasn’t for the ignorant Soros sucking troll Lin Wood and his “IZ NADA VOTINZ NO MOARH!” crowd.

The reality though is that this is showboating.

This has zero chance of passing the Senate.
"

Agreed.

When you allow a junta to take over your country, the junta will strain every nerve to secure its power. Duh.

As I said, you trust a few Senate Democrats — I don’t.

Why shouldn't they? From their point of view, the Republicans have been emasculated. The sheep, included Conservatives, stood around with their fingers up their asses while they blatantly and openly stole the 2020 election. In fact, the Republican Party aided and abetted them. Why shouldn't they proceed with their plans. Who will oppose them? No one.

The Democrats damage will be permanent, they must be stopped by any means even if that means voting for a RINO.

"So, I am NOT surprised that this is happening.
Are you??"

No..
Not one bit... In their primary focus on bringing Trump down or, at least, blocking anything he proposed that would improve the Nation, the DS is complicit in this total communist victory...

True examples of communist-supporting apparatchiks whose only goal is living within reach of power, privilege, and luxury...

Tell us your thinking on this. It is hard to see any upside.

You might try learning what my moniker means and you wouldn't ask for my thinking on this. Look it up on DuckDuckGo and see what mene mene tekel upharsin means.

I think he says this on purpose to make the sheeple think they are in discussions when they are not. Next thing you know, they are full steam ahead with their plan(s).

As if it weren't official before, it damn' sure is now: we live in a banana republic.

All bets that our Constitutional Republic survives this assault are off.

This wouldn’t even be an issue if it wasn’t for the ignorant Soros sucking troll Lin Wood and his “IZ NADA VOTINZ NO MOARH!” crowd.

Yeah it was Lin Wood that blew that one cuz the 2 idiots that were running did nothing. Didn’t demand Georgia look into the fraud. Campaigned on nothing, no support for Trump and didnt draw flys for any enthusism to vote on Dominion machines that already stole their votes the first time. Yeah all Lin Woods fault. Wake up, Neither candidate was popular and the democraps were promising free checks.

Post the screenshot of your bet on predicted.

You want me to bet on the destruction of my country?

And if I don't, that means that I think that Manchin and Sinema are really trustworthy.

That's inane.

My comment stands.

If you actually believed what you are posting, it would be a no brainer.

Two max bets in those categories would win you 20K.

But since you don’t actually believe what you are posting, you won’t pony up the money.
