Justice Breyer speaks out against expanding the Supreme Court

FreeAndClear · April 12, 2021, 11:16am

Right. Because voting against someone or voting for a part of the platform is totally not something people do

The court should not be expanded under any circumstances.

Bit different when you vote for the guy who is liable to deliver civil war or a convention of states because he doesn’t understand the precarious state of the nation.

Hmmmm. So the founding fathers did not explicitly state that a hearing should be held for a President’s nomination to the SC. Did the founding fathers explicitly specify the number of SC justices there should be? If they did not, using the same criterion that a hearing is not required then the number of justices can be varied.

No It’s not different. It’s hysteria. We heard all this before.

Oh you guys won an election - ok civil war if you guys act on your agenda.

Just hysteria

Packing the courts so you can do an illegal gun grab is hardly the usual fight over policy.

Yeah, nobody is stupid enough to not understand that is also an illegal gun grab.

It is unconstitutional. That wasn’t my point. “Watch what happens”. Nothing. Nothing will happen

At absolute bare minimum Democrats get the boot for a long while.

Very possible

After trump back room dealing with Kennedy to retire, Biden is right to do this.

AZslim · April 12, 2021, 2:49pm

Did you agree with everything the former guy did?

zantax · April 12, 2021, 2:50pm

Said, or did?

AZslim · April 12, 2021, 2:51pm

Both.

zantax · April 12, 2021, 2:53pm

Did, can’t recall anything egregious, said, clown show.

AZslim · April 12, 2021, 2:55pm

Then you agree with everything done by everybody you have ever voted for, correct?

PAmoderate37 · April 12, 2021, 2:58pm

Not sure why this matters. There is only 2 choices and I already know no matter which one I choose, they are going to end up doing something I don’t agree with. It actually took Biden less time than I thought it would.

zantax · April 12, 2021, 2:59pm

No. Not at all. Can’t say I ever voted for anyone even approaching the radical notions Biden has advanced or openly contemplates though. If Trump had refused to rule out packing the court to get his way he would not have gotten my vote. That’s a deal breaker for any sensible person.

AZslim · April 12, 2021, 3:53pm

The former guy overturning elections to get his way is OK though, gotcha.

He didn’t get my vote the second time.
