Biden Creating Commission to Study Expanding the Supreme Court (Published 2021)

The commission will also examine other potential changes such as term limits for justices. Progressives are pushing President Biden to add seats to balance the court’s conservative majority.

If they manage to pull this off, it will be a major step towards all things gun-confiscation related.

I think somebody should sue and take this matter to the current supreme court

If they pull this off, it's no-longer going to be "just guns" but rather, "first, just guns"....
.... then it'll be no-warrant searches/property seizures of all types, jailing "dissidents" and opposing politicians,.... and on...and on...etc...etc.

Gun control will be the least of our problems.

It will no longer be the Supreme Court. It will be renamed The Ministry of Progress. All other federal agencies will soon add "The Ministry of..." to their name.

Yep

Let's hope this (latest) salvo galvanizes the resolve of SCOTUS to remain as is, and to push back on the ever-increasing challenges to their legitimacy (such as it is).

And trying to enforce it will be the least of theirs.

 

[ar man]

Yes they are all ready work us towards this. We are soon to be know as the ussr.
United States of Soviet Russia lol

Sleepy Joe should read Matt Bracken's books

 

[TTSX]

We knew he was going to do that before the votes were mailed in. Just like we knew he'd come after ARs. And knew his brain was oatmeal. This president has already shown us everything he's going to do and he's fast tracking all of it.

Harris is experienced in having her court packed.

Yep no surprises here, even those who glorified him and said he wouldn't really try to do this stuff, knew he would. It's funny how they seem to be laying low now, that's not really a surprise either.

 

[BrentN]

I'd hit it then quit it. Not gonna lie. HAHA XD

Absolutely disgusting.

 

[RicInOR]

I actually think this is a good step.

I know you are thinking they'd all be liberal judges.

But, as it stands now, many cases that could/should be heard, cannot, due to the limited number of judges.

Students of history will note that the supreme court hasn't always been 9 members. The Court also hasn't always acted in the place of the legislative branch but with congress the way it is, we're seeing it. Things change.

This is also one of those issues where pretending Biden is a communist instead of a broadly conservative neoliberal corporatist will have you fearmongering over his picks. Since Reagan, we just get one or another side of the same anti-freedom and equality, pro-wall-street/corporate shills. Biden and/or Harris will do the same and for the most part the the courts are solidly pro-2A for the forseeable future.

I get wanting to let off steam online but you'd be better off trying to rope the wind than play make-believe policy.

 

[SonicBlue03]

Biden is appeasing his insane base, but he probably is counting on the political football of repealing the Judiciary Act falling to Congress. And that's going to be a killer for weak Dems in the House as well as the Senate. Plus with Sinema and Manchin pushing back hard on libtard lunacy, it would take a lot for this to get through Legislature.

That said, I sincerely hope Biden retains a shred of mental capacity in the future to realize just how horrible he has been for the nation.

Glad to know there are other sane people on this forum. Holy hell guys, you realize we already do a lot of this things you guys boogeyman "progressives" as going to do. We all are getting bubblegumed seven ways to sunday by both major parties in this country and to act like one side is all good and one side is all bad is frankly childish.

Yeah, pretty much. Forgive me if I don't have faith in whoever might be making those picks. It won't be Biden, it will be whoever is pulling his strings.

He has to fast track.... he is running out of brain cells
