If the Legislature and Presidency go all Democrat, the very FIRST thing they have to do, is deal with that insane Supreme Court.
Impeach Thomas, Alito and every idiot that fat Cheeto installed on the court. Probably will get Thomas, but not sure about the other 4, but they need a reality check. Thomas needs to go to be tried for his ethic violations afterward. He needs to revisit his life choices in a quiet cell. Also, scrap that stupid fucking RV of his. Seriously, why the fuck do those things exist? Why not just stay in a nice hotel? It would be cheaper.
Increase the court to anywhere between 11 and 15. There are 11 circuits, so 1 SC justice for each makes sense.
Then that court's first order of business is to shut the fuck up and do the job they are there to do.
Wait, why not reverse the previous decisions... Easy, because what has happened this year, can happen again... so...
Congress needs to codify women's reproductive rights, Chevron Deference, and anything else these bunch of fucking morons did this past year. Congress should then take a real close look at any other "business as usual" things that go on in government and see how they could be better protected from the next assault from these assholes.
The Fucking Idiot Six on the Supreme Court put into very sharp relief the weaknesses in our government. It's time to rectify that.
The Supreme Court will change in the next 4 years. At least 2 of those 6 won't be there. Doesn't mean it still shouldn't be fundamentally changed, though. And it doesn't mean that laws shouldn't be written to safeguard rights.
