#ABCNews #SupremeCourt #CourtPacking #Justices
A bonehead idea 💡 🦴
If they are allowed to pack the courts we are officially a dictatorship.
It goes to 13 under this admin, then the next admin Republican, kicks it up to 19, then the next admin Democrat kicks it up to 25, etc, etc…Why even have a Supreme court then?
Dems are failures. They cannot win except by cheating.
That's how Chavez did it. He put more and look what happened
Better question: Why is ABC news supporting court packing?
Im so sick and tired of liberals. Im sick of liars and the filth that comes with it.
So make it so the court will have all “liberals†in the near future. Man…. I thought the left hated dictators. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Unimaginable how the power grabbing fascists call themselves anti-fascist
They take the courts than take your guns
Quick answer? It means the demise of a free nation delivered into the hands of the "ruling class" scumbags "we" keep "voting" into office.
"We win Georgia and we change Amerika!"
…and the sheep says, "Ba-a-a!"
Biden said Roosevelt was a bonehead for trying to pack the court and now we see that Biden Is just as boneheaded as he was and even more so actually
Well this didn't age well
We do not want to pack courts
The ONLY definition of “court packing†is increasing the number of Justices so it can be filled by the one expanding the court.. All other definitions are purely fictitious.
The jurisprudence in my country is very erratic precisely because of term limits for justices. Absence of term limits of the judiciary ensures judicial independence and stability in the interpretation of the law.
This is how 3rd World countries do politics.
In the future America (2nd beast of Revelation 13 will form an image to the 1st beast(Papacy). Lamb like beast with 2 horns (separation of church and state)that will speak as a dragon (Through its LAWS). No wonder in the future there will be Sunday Law (forced Sunday worship/rest/false Sabbath) will be passed as prophecied which is the Mark of the beast because its the counterfeit of God’s true Bible Saturday sabbath/rest which Satan hates because Sabbath is a memorial of God’s creation and He as A CREATOR of all. This Sunday law, Whoever will not comply will be persecuted, killed, cant buy or sell. However God will save His people and the end will come. FYI: Not to mention 6 out 9 justices currently are Catholics.
I wonder if the voters who voted Biden in would have voted for him if they new all the actions he is taking now…. He really did not tell any of his followers what he planned to do to help the people. Why did they vote him in…. I want to know why I am voting someone into power to run the country and help the people. Everything he is doing is to help him and his party…nothing about making life better for the people. As tax payers, can the people not step in and say “NO†, that’s not what we voted you in for. Especially on the court packing too… all for his own political selfishness to ‘control’ control’ control ‘. Speak up you American lefts before you are just a product and a pawn on the game board of the Elite’s who run him.
Ya that how it works Joe you speak the news listen then the report on it to the people!
This country is fucked we are mindless sheep
If Georgia’s 2 senate seats flip to democrat, causing a 50/50 tie in the senate, democrats will be able to get as many justices in the Supreme Court as they wish. All 50 republicans will vote no, all 50 democrats will vote yes, and the tie would be broken by the VP, who will be Kamala Harris, who will surely vote yes.
As long as Americans own guns, I’m not worried.
why not have
5 justices appointed by Liberal Presidents
5 justices appointed by Conservative Presidents
5 justices appointed by the other justices via a Unanimous 10-0 vote.
Take the politics out of the Supreme Court and Strengthen the Institution's power and prestige
5 peer voted unanimous justices would be the most prestigious b/c they would be voted in on merit by their peers.
They can pack it, and in another 4 years it will get packed again by the Republicans. The 2 parties can play this game until there's more judges than congressmen.
Hahaha they wanted to wait because they knew they were gonna fix the election lol can't have that ..
Clearance Thomas in the back – then Squeeges friend, then everybody else in front 😬
The reason the writers of the Constitution do not set the number of Supreme Court justices is because the concept of judicial review isn't constitutional. Nowhere does it say that the Supreme Court gets to decide what the Constitution means. Why? Because in every situation, the answer is self evident. Anyone who has earned more than five dollars and can read can determine what is constitutional. How? Let the 10th Amendment been your guide. The 1st and 2nd Amendments also are obvious. We need to adopt more of the Roman Republic's Constitution. It lasted longer than ours.
If the Democrats win the POTUS and the senate back (and that's a big if) and they then add 4 seats to the supreme court, the shooting will start. That will be an intentional move to destroy the check and balances of our government and force an ideology on the entire population. It will be met with the physical force that tyrants are always met with, throughout history. It will be violent and it will be quick.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg: On Packing the Court – June 24, 2019 she said 9 was a good number. packing the court is wrong.AOC and Shumer are left wing power mongers looking to rule.
Am I the only person that feel like the justice Supreme Court should not be life time positions and have limited terms just like the president?
who the hell cares about the courts, or bidens son? is that all the trump sides got? its weak.. how bout that health plan to replace obama care? nothing haw, covid response- nothing.. we need action not some cheerleader tweeting all day. do ur job trump!
So his answer is yes cause if it was no he would just say so and it wouldn't make any difference.

Its a power grab we are not as free as we like to believe.
Time to bring some balance.
