MSNBC Bites Biden From The Left For Failing To Pack The Supreme Court
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 04/28/2024 4:36:27 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

On Saturday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, hosts and guests alike bemoaned Biden's failure to seek to pack the Supreme Court.

Their comments came in response to oral arguments at the Court this past week on the case regarding Trump's claim of presidential immunity. The panel expressed fears that the Court might expand presidential immunity -- if not to the extent of the right to assassinate political rivals, as Trump's lawyer suggested could be an immune act.

Co-host Alicia Menendez teed up the packing notion, saying that in light of what happened in the Court last week, clearly something "structural"--packing or court "reform" is necessary.Co-anchor Symone Sanders Townsend, mentioning that she had worked for Biden, said that he is someone who believes in "the rule of law." But Sanders suggested that it is "time to do things differently." Again Khadori agreed, flatly saying that in supporting the rule of law, Biden "is holding the wrong view. I hate to say that about the president. He's been wrong about this the whole time."

Wait a second! Isn't the Democrats' big beef against Trump that he refuses to accept the rule of law?

But discarding the rule of law is a good—indeed a necessary—thing if it benefits Democrats?

I prefer MSNBC to CNN. Reason being, MSNBC is entertainment posing as commentary. CNN is commentary posing as news.

I do have a proposition for either network. Host your own version of Fox’s “The Five” but have Coulter, Ingraham, Crowley, Owens and Pirro on the panel.

As long as there are politicians, journalists, etc. making money off of the "Obama/Biden S*#t Show", no one will want to talk about the situation in the US!

Those guys have it all their own way (and I MEAN 'their own way' ... up to and including unchallenged crime) yet they still whine about 'making things better'!

I don’t consider cable news networks to be actual news. I call them daytime opinion shows just like the late night talk shows. If you get real news while watching cable news, congrats, you got lucky. LOL

Not to worry...
By this time next year, the SCOTUS will be stuffed with at least 10-more ardent communists...
