Much like a seven year old trying to change the rules of a game they’re losing – Democrats have now decided that any institution that doesn’t serve their purpose must destroyed. After the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh, the popular liberal publication Vox has now called for the abolition of the Supreme Court entirely.
“…the Court is now a blunt political instrument, used repeatedly to undermine outcomes of democratic governance” the Vox article complains. While I can’t prove it, I imagine there’s a 0% chance Vox would be making the same complaint with a liberal court. The article continues, “…it’s perfectly reasonable to ask if we should abolish the Supreme Court, or at the very least strip the Court of its ability to overturn laws that it rules unconstitutional. If the Court is no longer a neutral arbiter of the law, if it’s gradually shape-shifting into a partisan weapon, then maybe it’s time to rethink its role in our constitutional system.”
Plenty of liberals have echoed such calls to abolish the SCOTUS, none of which existed prior to the nomination and eventual confirmation of Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

It’s time for the Democrat Party to be abolished.
To Hell with these people.
Did the authors of Vox just step out of a time machine from 1930? Did they miss FDR trying to pack the court? Did they miss a whole series of bad decisions? Wickard v. Filburn? US v. Miller? Roe v. Wade? The Kelo decision?
VOX is receiving a good thrashing on Twitter over this.
This should not be ignored, and should be manipulated and turned to abolishing some of the lower courts.
Opportunity!
If the Supreme Court is abolished, are Roe v. Wade and Obergefell v. Howard abolished as well. If so, I’m in.
So on one hand they accuse republicans of “damaging the institutions of government” yet on the other hand they want to abolish said institutions of government.
It's the same old communists playbook "whenever they lose, they make a lot of noise and demand to change the rules".
Each time they spout this bilge someone needs to ask them what they want or what alternative they would present. They want to be rid of the Electoral College, they want to abolish the Supreme Court, they don’t want police.
Tell us your form of government liberals so we can study it.
Hmmm.... so these bright lights want to abandon the three-legged stool for the two- or one-legged device.
The three-legged stool is free-standing and self-leveling.
Two- and one-legged stool may work for a short time but require support and will ultimately fall over.
There you have it. Things learned while milking a cow by hand.
And if Kavanaugh doesn’t agree it proves he is [fill in the blank]
Someone should tell the dims they are trying to milk a bull,too.
Actually, what these bright lights want to do is light the three legged stool aflame, smash it with a sledgehammer while it burns, then build a new and better stool from the charred remains.
Probably a gomer bull to boot. /humor
Better to abolish Vox.
Abolition of the Supreme Court. Abolition of the Electoral College. Abolition of the Constitution. Mob leftist rule.
“Vox Calls for Abolishing Supreme Court”
Do it! Then we will set up a “popular tribunal” a la the French Revolution and see how they like them apples!
Judicial activism was a fine thing when it was trending toward liberal insanity, but now that the door has been slammed shut and a return to normalcy is imminent, the whiners have changed their tune.
They have held it close to their heart for sixty years. They don’t win, end the sport.
Well sheeeeeeiittt. If the Vox snowflakes want SCOTUS abolished, we need to get on it right away. ROTFL. Clowns.
