Biden Won't Pack the Supreme Court, and It's Killing Democracy
Newsweak ^ | 6/30/23 | David Faris

Posted on 07/03/2023 6:20:54 AM PDT by Sicon

Well, it was another banner week from the six unelected zealots who apparently make all of America's public policy decisions. Yet even after the hard-right supermajority on the Supreme Court torched affirmative action, greenlit all manner of ugly discrimination against LGBTQ Americans and yanked up to $20,000 from millions of indebted borrowers, President Biden and his allies still can't bring themselves to threaten or even contemplate serious reform to the judicial branch. Instead, they seem content to watch our very own Guardian Council wreak total havoc on American society...

“Yanked up to $20,000 dollars from millions of indebted borrowers”. What a stupid statement. Nobody “yanked” anything from anybody. All borrowers are “indebted”. It’s not like that money was some college dimwit’s birthright. Poor indebted college pukes. I feel no sympathy for you. You pay your own damn bills instead of bitching and moaning for someone else to pay them. Then move out of daddy’s basement and take your degree in queer studies and get a job in the Biden administration.

No, and I don’t know why this crap is posted here…. along with non-stop trans/gay/lesbian garbage. I think those posters must be queer.

A lynch mob is a perfect example of democracy in action. Sometimes, they will even pretend to be fair and allow the guy getting lynched to vote first.

As usual: “Well, it was another banner week from the six unelected zealots who apparently make all of America’s public policy decisions. Yet even after the hard-right supermajority on the Supreme Court torched affirmative action, greenlit all manner of ugly discrimination against LGBTQ Americans and yanked up to $20,000 from millions of indebted borrowers, President Biden and his allies still can’t bring themselves to threaten or even contemplate serious reform to the judicial branch.

the extreme hyperbole incendiary langauge of the Dims/Left/Progressives continues.

It is from such incendiary language riots and their so called justifications are born.

They are only unelected zealots when they rule against the leftists.

They don’t exist to rubber stamp federal laws and diktats. Their job is to determine if the law is constitutional or not.

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner. That’s why liberals like democracy.

"Democracy died in ancient Greece when it devolved to mob rule."

Actually, Athens started as a direct democracy, where citizens had a first-hand vote regarding decisions of law and politics. Thus mob rule at the beginning. On the other hand, Rome was a representative democracy, which elected officials that subsequently decided on state matters. But also failed in their representative brand of democracy for various in-fighting amongst the elected officials and their Emperors.

Thank you for describing democracy in such succinct and historical terms. I still like, democracy is two wolves and one sheep voting on what to have for dinner.

Oh! It was just fine when unelected Democrats in Black Robes were issuing rulings we all had to live by in the 60s and 70s but GOD FORBID a later SCOTUS roll any of that back. THAT you see would “destroy democracy”.....even though rule by judicial fiat was not democracy in the first place.
