SCOTUS thread

[Tony Stark]

bro, you're here talking about dems shifting on court packing if we abastain, c'mon now. This is dreamAct debate all over again.

The first time it only had 3 House sponsors,now it has 56.

So basically progs who ensured 6-3 majority in the SC over 20 years want Dems to undo their bullshit voting patterns by doing extraordinary things or they will continue to make the SC more conservative.

Makes so much sense.

Moderates ensured a 6-3 majority by nominating the likes of Gore and Hillery that progs wont vote for.

Why not blame the failure to drive the message to "get out the vote" over broken promises on the candidates though?

Moderates Dems had all 3 branches last year and let it happen so its not like voting for them will change things.

All I'm saying is that the constitutionality of a recess appointment having been decided could again be challenged as Roe was.

How many times did McCarthy put his speaker nomination up for a vote?

You need 60 votes for this, you couldn't get Barnes elected on the court packing platform and you expecting this thing to pass?
