There’s another quote that I can’t locate right now that he stipulated that the ‘war’ doesn’t even have to be real, just that the people have to believe it exists..............

They can only advance the idea if all 50 Democratic Senators agree. I would doubt that they can muster the 50...to get VP Harris in for the tie-breaking vote.

I believe they have to kill the filibuster before a vote. Or lose

UPDATE: Pelousy says she will not bring this bill to the House floor. She will wait until after the commission study.

True! What is done can be undone. The Rs should threated to undo this horrible assault.
IMHO, this is a threat to the SCOTUS and those who have cause before the court. I’m not in the least concerned.

Wow. This is too much for Nancy P. to contemplate.

But when that commission recommends packing the court, then what?

"UPDATE: Pelousy says she will not bring this bill to the House floor. She will wait until after the commission study."

Which means it will probably come to a House vote. We all know what's going to come out of that "commission". The only chance the "packing" fails is in the Senate. Even then, Romney, Murkowsky, Collins could fail us once the dem/soc/commies get rid of the filibuster. If they don't and Romney, Murkowsky, Collins vote party line, then Kamelho will decide. End game.

*yawn* please stop posting this alarmist BS

We had our fun poking the libs for four years and laughing at their Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Please don’t let them do the same to you.

There is ZERO chance of this passing in congress. ZERO.

So calm the hell down, and go enjoy your life.

It's the only way they can get their vast lists of what they want made into law or passed.....like Reparations and all the rest of Obamas agenda to secure their power indefinitely.

Well all I can say is they successfully pulled off a coup on this country so I wouldn’t be so sure they couldn’t also pull stunts to further get what they want changing the Supreme Court. It’s been done before.

Biden will wait until midterms. Release names of his nominees. All affiliated with various victim groups. The Dems will run on that. The Republicans will not challenge because “muh racism”. Republicans should be doing their homework with undercover video etc of Biden's nominees.

And there was no election fraud either.

These days, normalcy bias can be dangerous.

Mob-ruled, single-party country. Not unlike the state of California.

Welcome to the United Socialist States of America.

Correction. The SCOTUS has 4 leftists, 2 conservatives, 3 cowards and a corrupt Chief Justice who sells himself to the highest bidder. Barrett, Kavanagh and Gorsuch will love being in the minority. They can write scathing dissents and pretend to care about the Constitution, while knowing they were personally responsible for permitting the steal and destroying America. Same as the RINOs in the Senate.

If done, there will be two sets of votes, one before and one after court packing. It’s a beautiful way to divide the country.
