So? What does that accomplish? SCOTUS will simply overturn every ruling that Trump tells them to. Suing does little more than Schumer’s “strongly worded letters” at this point.
Replies
Suing them now creates a proper record of their atrocities that cannot be conveniently deleted when Trump leaves office. A court record can be a treasure trove of evidence and new leads. We must investigate and prosecute every last one of them for their crimes once they are voted out.

Which is why I am furious that Biden refused to expand the court. It really DOES make it look like everyone was in on it. He wouldn't even consider it. WHO CARES how many Justices we end up with. 13 (one for every district) would hve , at least given us a CHANCE and some balance.

He was sadly too old to see the change in front of him, or too confident Americans wouldn’t elect him again, or both….or maybe tradition blah blah….whatever it was it was the wrong choice not to.

Would’ve needed a super majority which means 60 fucking votes and of course that’s something to definitely consider but there were so many goddamn fires. What the hell? Almost every single institution had to be rebuilt after the mess they made the last time adding $8 trillion to the debt by the way.

Exactly. Which fire to put out first? Biden inherited NO PLAN for vaccine distribution, and saving American lives was top priority. I get it. Then he appoints Garland - a Federalist Society poster boy - to DRAG HIS FEET over 1/6. The game clock was run down, and it was intentional.

I'm afraid it goes back to the Obama Administration. With a year left in his term he did not have the will to make an appointment during the congressional recess. Good guys finish last.

He had the will, the sleazeball Republicans in the Senate wouldn’t move on it and effectively blocked any appointments by Obama in his final year. I will blame RBG for not stepping aside when she should have. By holding on as long as she did, she made certain that she was replaced by a scumbag.

It seems like the last 2 to 3 decades the average American seems to have forgotten or maybe never learned basic civics. We have guard rails, all of this should’ve been prevented. But now we must reinforce the pillars. And we need judges to base their decisions on laws, not their damn faith.

The C-Street Prayer breakfast crowd brought in the fundy Catholics & Evangelical nutjobs to the SCOTUS; a LONG game since FDR's admin. It focuses on ushering in a theocracy. Then we got the 7 Mountains Mandate crowd infiltrating. That's how it all happened. Dems got complacent at midterms, as well.

This is the attitude that really gets me. Complain they aren't doing anything and complain when they actually do something. They are winning in court and if SCOTUS overturns that just moves everybody in the direction of expanding the court which there was little support for before.
