    I accept your surrender. I would appreciate if you did not lie about me in the future.

    The selection process is.

    Please explain what makes 9 the magic number. Thanks

    I always stand by what I post. I would point out that I never said it should be required, I am just sad that it is no longer that way. Used to be that was common place, heck not going back that far they just did voice votes even.

    Thank you for CONFIRMING that you do NOT comprehend the STARK difference between ANALYSING/EXAMINING and going around giving INSTRUCTIONS as in "telling".

    Sad!

    Is there any topic at all you might have changed your mind on since 1983?

    This commission is clearly meant to show the Democrats displeasure at Republicans giving 3 Supreme Court seats to the T**** admin when in history no other president would have received more than one under the same set of circumstances. Perhaps, had T**** named middle of the road jurists such as Obama offered in Garland for his two supplemental candidates there may have been no repercussions but no, he had to go full boat, young, far right.

    I don't believe they'll change the number of justices but they are raising questions about a process that permitted such actions. The truly best scenario would be for this commission to not change the number of justices but to make a more standardized process of selecting and for goodness sake go back to requiring 60 votes to pass to keep the very, very marginal off the court.

    Breyer and Thomas should retire, 30 years as a justice is too long. That would swing the court to 5-4 Republican appointees but one of them is becoming a swing vote. I can live with that and I truly doubt Biden is planning on naming radicals but still 60 votes to be sure.

    Thanks for avoiding what I posted. So what's the commission going to do then. Have all these meetings and get paid all this money and then all go home? The purpose is to expand the court and have the executive branch tell the SCOTUS how they should conduct their business. Where does Biden get off thinking that is the role of the Executive Branch and President?

    Utterly WRONG again!

    I directly QUOTED what YOU posted in order to PROVE the FALLACY of YOUR bogus allegations.

    They will come up with RECOMMENDATIONS in a REPORT that EVERYONE can read for themselves.

    It was only YOUR biggest *LOSER* who had DO-NOTHING commissions.

    Yet another blatant FALSEHOOD!

    Quote where EXACTLY it says any of that is the PURPOSE of the commission?

    Where do YOU get off ERRONEOUSLY alleging those absurd FALLACIES about the role of the Executive Branch and President?

    If the SCOTUS did not intervene in McConnell’s 13 year reign of blocking nominees followed by cramming the Federal Bench with unqualified right wing hacks, they won’t get involved in this deal.

    You'll find a lot, if not most, of Biden's executive orders are to rescind those of T**** or to study those of T****. Had you objected when T**** was throwing them out like candy, some of which the courts blocked, then you'd have a say now. Since you didn't your best approach would be to simply object to them and why, leave the "dictator in chief" foolishness out.

    and you voted for or at least support and stump for a guy who straight said that they were the actions of a dictator and then he got an office and what did he do became a dictator. Anyways be proud that he's a raging hypocrite

    He was elected for the purpose of "handlers" telling him what to do. He was wrong on sooooo many things when he decides on his own. He just has a "Father knows Best" face he puts on that appeals to so many coming from broken homes......another deeply concerning problem in America.

    Interesting concept, T**** makes a series of many executive orders, several overturned by the courts, and you find it apparently evil for Biden to use the same system to undo those very orders.
    Odd, to say the least.

    No one gave Trump anything he filled seats.. Learn the ****ing difference.

    How the hell is Garland a "moderate" and keep in mind the Obama admin called the Syrian Rebels who kept joining ISIS "moderates"

    Why would you doubt he plans on nominating radicals he has filled his Admin with them.

    You can't find it in yourself to condemn Biden for saying "EO's are the actions of a dictator" and then immediately issuing a slew of them, can you? You just can't do it.


    How Joe Biden's first executive orders compare ... - PolitiFact
    https://www.politifact.com › jan › marco-rubio › how-j...


    Claim: Says Joe Biden “has issued more executive fiats than anyone in such a short period of time, ever, more than Obama, more than Trump, more than anyone.”
    Claimed by: Marco Rubio
    Fact check by PolitiFact: True
