But you're right, we need to get the House moving with a majority under the leadership of Speaker Jeffries.

A real shame we don't have something in place to deal with Judges who prove they will help a certain
political party no matter what they do wrong. We need Judges who know right from wrong and act
accordingly not ones who consider the ballot box of their party before making decisions.

There's almost a 100% chance we'll have all 3 Houses after this next election, I'm betting that's when Biden
will expand the Court.

President Obama was cheated out of a nomination and we've been stuck with those who lied during the nomination process ever since - and that's not even counting Thomas and Alito!

Should individuals who lied to get on the Supreme Court be retired w/o pay?....YES..(...)..NO..(...)
Sure would give President Biden a lot of ammo to do something. They'd lose at least 4 Rs.
