“The Supreme Court is in crisis and bold solutions are necessary to restore the public trust,” Wyden said in a statement. “More transparency, more accountability and more checks on a power hungry Supreme Court are just what the American people are asking for.”

Wyden is safe until '28. 75 years old. He wants to go out with a bang sticking to to his enemies before he steps out. The rats would do this if they can get away with it. Is election season the time to gamble on the base getting riled up? The Scalia death should have taught them not to mess around with the voters.
Communist bastards.
There are 2 ‘bases’ out there.
Where do we fit in all this? I’ll tell you. There were no dissenters on the democrat side when it comes to judges or impeachment. So called ‘moderates’ lose their footing and we don’t do enough to expos their true colors. Tester is one and Mancin helped us once-the only Profile in Courage. Hopefully the 2 will be turned over.
What that means is that we don’t give an inch anywhere. Nebraska is not winner take all electorally. The democrat rino could be forgiven if only we have a majority big enough to carry the Larry Hogan’s out there. Think about it.
It would be hilarious if:
1. We elect a Republican Senate,
2. We elect Trump President,
3. Wyden’s bill becomes law,
4. Trump nominates 6 or 8 more SC justices,
5. Republican senate confirms them,
...
The President gets to nominate. And it's up to the Senate to confirm.
FDR attempted to "pack the court".
The Senate refused.
5. Republican senate confirms them
Technically, that can be done. Although I'll advise against it.
Wyden’s bill only allows a POTUS to nominate a new Supreme Court Justice in the 1st and 3rd year of each term.
They should be charged with treason, brought before a military tribunal, and shot.
In filthy dirty rotten democrat speak that just means that democrats can't get their way every time. They're trying to conquer every single one of our institutions so they can have complete tyrannical power over all of us.
Sickening!
“Trump nominates 6 or 8 more SC justices”
THAT’s my favorite scenario.
SCOTUS seems to be lazy to me.
They need to step it up and get more done. Six “helpers” might not hurt.
If Trump wins and GOP wins Senate, they should reintroduce the bill and see how many Rats support it.
“More transparency, more accountability and more checks on a power hungry Supreme Court are just what the American people are asking for.”
Yup. Thet thar bothers me to no end. How dare they overturn Roe v. Wade. It just ain’t raht, Jethro.
Shore ain’t, Uncle Jed. With RBG just barely grown cold in her grave, they went and done her this mean trick.
Well, tahm to go shoppin’. Crank up granny’s EV and let’s bah a loaf of bread and some butter. Gotta watch our pennies what with all this resolved inflation.
The Constitution sets up three separate and EQUAL branches of government, the Executive, the Legislative and the Judicial.
Not a lawyer, but I don’t think Congress can write any law that changes the way the Supreme court is set up and ran (and is why the Court does not get involved in the internal affairs of the legislative branch).
**If Trump wins and GOP wins Senate, they should reintroduce the bill and see how many Rats support it.**
It would expose them but it wouldn’t change their ways. We’d have to do it. Something bout ‘words mean things’.
Hey Democrats, lets expand it to 13 Justices, Let Trump (after he wins the election) fill the new positions. That would allow for 9 justices to be selected at random, to rule on SCOTUS cases.

Nike Executives Funneled Money To Democrat Who Just Blocked Uyghur Forced Labor Bill

Several top Nike executives funneled more than $60,000 to the re-election campaign of Democratic Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden over the course of just 16 days in September.
On Wednesday evening, Wyden blocked the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act which the House passed unanimously Tuesday and the Senate was expected to overwhelmingly approve. President Joe Biden vowed to sign the bill once passed by both chambers and work with Congress to “ensure global supply chains are free of forced labor,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said in a statement.
Nike, a major benefactor of Wyden, was one of several corporations to lobby against the bill, The New York Times previously reported. A March 2020 report from the bipartisan Congressional-Executive Commission on China (CECC) concluded that the Oregon-based athletic apparel giant was one of several corporations suspected to either directly employ forced labor or source materials from suppliers using forced labor in Xinjiang.
Between Sept. 15-30, 10 Nike executives including CEO John Donahoe and Executive Chairman Mark Parker each made two $2,900 contributions to Wyden, according to federal elections campaign data. Scott Uzzell, the CEO of Nike subsidiary Converse, made a single contribution of $2,900.

I’ll try again
“The CONGRESS is in crisis and bold solutions are necessary to restore the public trust,” Wyden said in a statement. “More transparency, more accountability and more checks on a power hungry CONGRESS MEN AND WOMEN are just what the American people are asking for.”
There, fixed it. It amazes me how often some people always talk about themselves.
