Half Measure. Might as well go all the way and make it 13% and pack it with every nigger in the USA.
To me, this country is not a land of laws, but a land of thuggery. Waco, the IRS, Randy Weaver, the Federal Reserve, all the illegal "police actions" (wars), etc.
The thin veneer of legality in this country is applied unequally, sometimes with incredible force, and at other times totally ignored or dismissed when convenient for the government. The Supreme Court is, and has been, a farce for my entire life.
It's called anarcho tyranny.
Ah, consolodation of power phase.
This is why conservatives fail, as "it would be wrong!" to do these tactics in their eyes.
Yea, it's called being a moral Christian who loves their country. They are going to force us to become like them just to survive. It will likely become a bloodbath in the end.
Democrats to unveil bill to induct 4 liberal, democrat judges.
Fixed it for you. Welcome to your banana republic and communist totalitarian government.
Doesn’t matter. Make it 1300. It’s all corrupt.
They had to add 4 new left leaning judges because there are currently 6 conservative and 3 left leaning judges already on the SC... by adding 4 they get the 7 to 6 advantage
"6 conservative"
You can't possibly be this retarded
LOL...yes, 6...and im not but you've just proven yourself to be a retard.. congrats nigger
cuz roberts and barret and kavaughna have shown themselves to be SOOO conservative and totally not onboard with the jewish communist agenda.
Rope yourself faggot
This brings the number of justices equal to the number of appellate circuits (plus USFC), which is roughly what was originally intended. It ultimately doesn't really enhance anything about the function of the court, as they still decide whether to hear cases by panel and all justices have to sit on every case.
Edit: Apparently alluding laws from the 1800's isn't conservative enough for , we need to go back to 1789 when it was 6 justices.
You add 4, then we add 4, until it's so large and politically elected and motivated that it's functionally destroyed as an institution.

That happened decades ago. They are politicians who serve for life.
Sorry, but I disagree.
This is because appointments to the supreme court used to require a supermajority of the senate in order to be approved for the position. The democrats changed these rules in 2013 under Obama to only require a simple majority for appointment. They did this because the Democrats wanted to politicize the Supreme Court. You see, in order to obtain a supermajority approval, both the Democrats and Republicans were required to pick moderates in order to get support from the opposing side of the isle. Now that it is no longer the case, and only a simple majority vote, you can pick a highly polarized politically motivated justice instead of someone who's role is to simply uphold the provisions of the constitution.
This is a very recent change.
So then add 2 liberals and let the senate Republicans add 2 conservatives. Arbitrarily adding 4 liberals is some banana republic shit
Ideally there would be 4 justices that are so moderate it wouldn't be possible to classify them one way or the other. The whole reason they want to add 4 supreme court justices is because Trump was able to add 3 conservatives.
That’s marsupial.
Holy shit we are in a quick downfall.
No sensible person would hold the opinion that the current state of that organ is in perfect order and that reform is not needed..
Ruth Bader Ginsberg anybody?!
Nobody should be on SC for life and if it can't be detached completely from political influence, seats ought to split evenly..
