Reminder that there are five ways to address the current SCOTUS problem.
1. Impeach some justices
2. Impose term limits
3. Expand the courts
4. Pass legislation limiting court prerogatives
5. Keep winning the presidency for the next 16 years or so while periodically also holding the senate.

but again: crisis first
I'm not, like, saying we get 60 seats, or anything.
Mostly yeah I would not like a fascism right now please and thank you.
All that the Dems can get done, when the voters give them a majority in the House, the Senate, & Biden in the WH to sign it!
Only then can we accomplish anything!
This is why I keep posting to
VOTE BLUE ALL DOWN BALLOT!
Let's start with avoiding the immediate disaster, then obviously not stop.
I think also just building a groundswell, which is what the GOP did over decades and is still doing. no seat is too small.
Limiting the court’s jurisdiction is well within grasp. It’s much easier to sneak in than expanding the court.
Yes.
This is the equivalent of Democrats' only response to Republican excesses being to shame them.
Has Mayorkas or Trump modified their behaviors?
2. Amendment to the Constitution needed
3. Sued and struck down
4. Sued and struck down
5. Possible.
I'm sorry, I really am, but "vote and keep voting " is the only option within the current system.
5. Holding the Senate is more important; it allows speedy seating of Dem nominees while blocking GOP ones.
It turns out we need well thought out quality legislation.
Thirteen U.S. Courts of Appeal warrant 13 SCOTUS justices — exactly as the founders intended. And if President Biden gets re-elected, that should be his #1 priority! I'm sick to death of these shady, billionaire-boosted bumblef**ks! 😠
The current GOP should be crushed to nothing.
The Democrats will split and half will become the new Republican party, reshaping their values and morals.
I've not seen even 1 GOP presidency where fiscal, environmental, social and political equity didn't devolve during their term. Not one time.
It *should* be a no-brainer to never give office to the GOP again.
6. Have Alito and Thomas killed after they rule that presidents are immune from prosecution for acts taken while in office
DEFUND SCOTUS SECURITY
SINCE they want a Lord Of The Flies country let's start there💯💯💯
And that is if Biden wins re-election.
If the President then were to load a handgun, walk over there, and shoot two of the conservative Justices, it would become a simple matter to appoint two new Justices.
