It’s a shame to see AEI scholar regurgitating left-wing talking points that are demonstrably false. The GOP had both Houses of Congress in 2017. We COULD have tried to pack the Court if we wanted to. But we DIDN’T—nobody even suggested it—because it would destroy the judiciary.https://twitter.com/NormOrnstein/status/1318237412376645638 …
2/x And, as Norm knows well: Filling vacancies is not “packing the Court.” The Senate’s Advice & Consent (confirming or not confirming individual nominees) is not “packing the Court.” What FDR tried & Biden plans to do—expanding the number of Justices—IS “packing the Court.”
It will be fun to watch Mitch as he is stripped of his leadership position, and within 2 years the judiciary (not just SCOTUS, but the appellate system) is restructured and expanded, thus destroying his life's work.
By taking a nomination from a president, with 8 months left in his final year. Only to then put your own judge in that spot, you, in fact. Packed the courts.
It's time for Ted Cruz to go. The Russians were supporting him in 2016 before they switched to Trump. He's a Russian asset who needs to go.
You were willing to keep it at 8 justices for the duration of Hillary's term. That's not from a thought experiment, that's from your lips. If you're gonna push through a justice despite most Americans being against it, just do it and stop trying to pretend it's noble.
You held 200 seats open under Obama so you could literally pack thd courts with Trump appointees. Holding vacancies open for months with the intent to fill them under the next administration is absolutely court packing.
The Senate’s Advice & Consent (confirming or not confirming individual nominees) is not “packing the Court.” The Senate did NOT "not confirm" Garland. The Senate just didn't do the job they got hired to do. There is a difference between voting Garland down, and not voting at all.
So if you choose to refuse confirmation hearings indefinitely, that is not corrupting the intention of the judiciary process? Not refusing to confirm, but refusing to even hear from the candidates? You have no respect for the laws of the land unless they suit your purpose.
