Democrats are reportedly gearing up for total war and plan to implement radical changes to the legislative and judiciary branches of the government if the GOP-led Senate confirms a new Supreme Court (SCOTUS) justice before the Nov. 3 election then lose the majority after the election, Axios reported Sunday.
The Democrats options include ending the Senate filibuster rule which requires a 60-vote supermajority to end debate and move to a vote instead of a simple majority expanding the number of Supreme Court justices, granting statehood to the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, and even undertaking a second impeachment effort against the President if he tries to fill the seat vacated by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Jake Gardner taught us all what the Lefties will do if they gain control.
They can't do it if they're not wasting oxygen any more...

A Jewish friend noted that it was suspicious that the planned funeral ceremonies for Ruth Bader Ginsberg are being scheduled to take a considerable amount of time. Ordinarily, if a death occurs during the Jewish High Holidays, it is customary to have the funeral rites and burial expedited. The suggestion is that the funeral is being prolonged for political purposes so Trump can be criticized as insensitive if he acts swiftly.
The Left is totally shameless.

Let ‘em declare total war. We have a warlord that will stomp their legislation into the ground. He’s up for reelection in Nov and it’s gonna be a landslide.

“...granting statehood to the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico...”
Can someone explain to me how they can get around the Constitutional obstacles to granting statehood to D.C.? Not only does the Constitution say the seat of government will be located in a Federal District under the control of the Federal government but the 23rd Amendment says that District will get three Electoral Votes. I don’t think Congress can make all of that go away by passing a law.

Oh no, not Total War!! Anything but that! What are they going to do, lie about a bunch of stuff? Riot? What?
Actually, this could be bad. They have politicians who will fight. We don’t, apart from a very few.

The Democrat party "declared war" on Americans a long time ago, and they have been relentlessly attacking them ever since.
Nothing new here

While we are adding states, let’s add Eastern Washington, Eastern Oregon, New Pennsylvania (without Philadelphia), New Illinois (without Shitcago), and New Minnesota (without Minn/St Paul).

Notice how the Left refuses to alter their policies.
They simply attempt to change the rules.

We'll be needing at least one new cemetery -- markers prohibited, as are found in muzzie states, so the Demagogic Party jihadists will fit right in.

...because those actions would spark a bloody civil war that would spare no one. Really? I don't think so. A civil war would state because the filibuster would effectively be ended? Or there are two new states added?
I can think of other reasons why a civil war might start, but not the reasons mentioned in this article.

If he’s no longer the swing vote, whatever they have on him can’t be used, so he can vote the way he wants.
