Wednesday on MS NOW’s “On the Line,” Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) said he has authored a bill to “expand the Supreme Court by 4 seats, up to 13.”
Host Alicia Menendez said, “I do have to ask you, in light of this week’s rulings from the Supreme Court, about court expansion. I know it’s an idea that you have supported in the past. You still have a lot of Democratic colleagues who are not there. Is this a conversation you’re having inside the caucus?”
Markey said, “Yes, I am the author of the court expansion bill. The Republicans stole two Supreme Court seats in 2016 and 2020. That’s what’s giving them their supermajority. The only way to solve this problem in a very short period of time is to expand the Supreme Court by 4 seats, up to 13. That would then restore the 7-6 majority, which should be in place right now. And we have to fight for that, and we can do that statutorily. It does not require a constitutional amendment. That has to be at the top of the agenda, and that’s what I’m talking to my colleagues about right now.”
Menendez said, “As that conversation continues to unfold, please come back and give us updates.”

Poor John Roberts. He and Comey Barrett thought they could appease the left with the birth right citizenship case and a few others but there’s no appeasing the left.
Gotta hand it to the Democrats.
Even when they lose, they win.
The minute the democrats control the senate, house, and white house, the filibuster will be eliminated and they will pass everything they want with a simple majority.

You know it, I know it, they know it, the republicans know it.
Malarkey
Well then I suggest Trump nominate 4 judges and see how the left reacts😂😂😂
I agree. Let’s expand it by 4 and have Trump put every one of them in right now.
Republican John will be along shortly to tell you he can’t.
Just what we need...MORE unelected judges running the USA. More unelected judges are needed to FURTHER ignore the plain language of the U.S. Constitution.
Forget elections. American elections are all about cheating. They are now too corrupt in America to be relevant.
Mao was right...He said, “Political power comes from the barrel of a gun.”
Let those with the most guns decide their governance and leadership.
Thomas Jefferson said the governed have a right to overthrow tyrants not responsive to the people’s demands.
He assumes the new 4 will be dumblecrat picks...serve him and the rest right if they were not.
I so loathe leftists...they are like dog crap on your shoe...
Democrats are
Destroying America
HERE is MORE PROOF
Wouldn’t they be passed if the Republicans expanded it with 4 solid co servative costitionalists first
Tell ya what. I’ll agree to expanding the SCOTUS by 4 seats so long as its President Trump who gets to nominate the 4 new Justices.
If it’s that important, why not expand it right now? Before the elections.
Senator Malarkey, your terns are acceptable. Pass legislation expanding the SCOTUS to eleven justices immediately, and then Trump appoints four conservatives in the Clarence Thomas mold.
If both sides pad the SC when they’re in power we’ll ALL be justices one day.
This is Markey knowing that Thune and his RINOS will never expand to four more judges now with Trump.
Because John is on vacation.
