Several high-profile Senate Democrats warned the Supreme Court in pointed terms this week that it could face a fundamental restructuring if justices do not take steps to "heal" the court in the near future.
The ominous and unusual warning was delivered as part of a brief filed Monday in a case related to a New York City gun law. Sens. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, Richard Durbin, D-Ill., and Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., referenced rulings by the court's conservative majority in claiming it is suffering from some sort of affliction which must be remedied.
"The Supreme Court is not well. And the people know it," the brief said. "Perhaps the Court can heal itself before the public demands it be 'restructured in order to reduce the influence of politics.'"
The last part was quoting language from a Quinnipiac University poll, in which 51 percent favored such restructuring. In the same poll, 55 percent believed the Supreme Court was "motivated by politics" more than by the law.

And the unwise latina has major health issues.
Dear demolib senators. Say what?
“...When they lose elections they demand to still take all the power. The Democrats are becoming more and more authoritarian by the minute...”
They never really “lose” elections. It’s just that the RAT arm of the UniParty gets frustrated with the GOPe arm of the UniParty because they don’t move fast enough for them. It’s all just one big merry party that feasts off the “unwashed masses”. We are nothing but cattle to them...to be milked every April 15th.
They’re gonna keep pushing till one day their bluff is gonna be called...and it ain’t gonna be pretty....for them.
That wasn't so difficult now, was it?
ha ha
the damned commies are getting nervous, are they?
I am sure that as the real Ho, you intend to tell us.
Your sexualization of every topic gets real old.
Having you on Free Republic is like having someone at work play the same George Carlin album from the seventies over the loudspeakers six times a day.
Every day.
For over a decade.
Early on it’s not funny anymore.
As the days, months, and years go by it gets more and more annoying to everyone but the guy who keeps playing it, and thinks it’s the funniest thing ever.
Humblegunner, you are that guy, your humor is that humor, and people react to you the way many do because of it.
So much for checks and balances between the three branches of government.
Sens. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, Richard Durbin, D-Ill., and Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., referenced rulings by the court’s conservative majority in claiming it is suffering from some sort of affliction which must be remedied.
And the Court should immediately order every one of these quislings to Appear before them, Then the Court should hold them in Contempt of Court for at least 90 days
I’m sorry, Ed.
I really am.
I agree. There may be no recourse but civil war. President Trump era will not last forever and the GOP is essentially a useless political party.
It is a fact that conservative judges sometimes join the liberal wing in decisions but liberal justices NEVER join the other side EVER. Which side is about politics.
I submit that the pubbies have never awoken.
BING = Because It’s Not Google
I agree in full with the Dems. President Trump should immediately expand the court to 13 judges and submit four nominations at once to the Senate.
“”Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), who chairs the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property and the Internet, introduced a bill on Tuesday that aims to make the federal courts more transparent.””
Tell us how Issa managed this since he isn’t in the House any longer....The least you could have done was put a “date” in your reply...
Dems (deep state, NWO, cabal) they are in charge of us all - right...now especially since the Epstein secret are pretty much back in the cave with wray and the boys cleaning up on the island and good ole barr in charge...hummmm!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So dammit chief roberts your secrets are safe start getting the supremes in line with leftists ruling again,,,ya know like your under handed illegal changes with nonbama care and all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
reply to: Threatening the Supreme Court is not a good idea, they tend to take that badly.
Hey any thing is OK for the dems...back off they know everything...and they would never be punish anyway cause they own the justice system!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
