        Conservatives’ stealth court-packing plan Step 1: Steal seats by blocking confirmation of judges until WH and Senate are under conservative control. Step 2: Change the rules to appoint the most partisan conservative judges at breakneck speed.https://www.americanprogress.org/issues/democracy/news/2019/04/03/468234/conservative-court-packing/ …

        Waiting to see how any of this chart, regardless of Party affiliation is "court packing"...

        Too bad you’re living within your forcefield of alternate reality. If you look, Obama wasn’t able to fill seats. Ask yourself why? There is your answer. McConnell held a crap-ton of seats open until they regained the WH and then they set about filling them w cons. judges. PACKING

        This is nothing more than an attempt to obfuscate what court packing means.
