Yes, that's the point, Bill!

    It's journalistic malpractice to write an entire piece on expanding the court quoting Bill Barr without even once mentioning the corruption that got us here.

    Eh, it'd be a good step in the right direction if they did stack the court (though term limits and a code of conduct are laughable half-measures at best), but I have my doubts the dems will do anything. If they sincerely believed that the american right wanted to end democracy and put dem politicians in camps (to be clear, they're fine with other people being in camps), one would assume they'd be using that newfound presidential immunity to start drone striking "threats to the republic".

    Edit: oh and obviously whatever tools the dems use, the republicans will use more ruthlessly as they care far, far less about optics. Might as well play to win.

    I would really like to see our supreme court filled with neutral people. Someone that will side with the law, not religion, not party lines. It's really what we should have but clowns are going to clown.

    That would be funny if all the justices got got by this. Just having the SC have zero justices on the bench for any amount of time would be a funny thing to happen while I'm alive.
