What I care about is being realistic about the fight we are in right now and what's practical. Anybody opening their lips about donors doesn't get how we got here.

Come down off the mountaintop and look around you. Which of these alt-Left grifters sprinkling DSA pixie dust do you think is a modern day MLK? 🤔

There's nothing that can be done to remove any justices & absent a trifecta with at least a 60-seat supermajority, there's no way to add justices.
The GOP didn't break any laws to get their 6-3 SCOTUS.
The voters handed it to them by not voting in 2014 & 2016.

We're stuck with a 6-3 SCOTUS because people didn't vote to keep Democrats in control of the Senate in 2014, then blew our last chance to have a Democratic POTUS fill the vacancy left by Scalia in 2016.
Why is this so hard to understand?

What specific laws should be ignore, and how would that turn out well?
SCOTUS donors? They're appointed for life. Do you even live here or are you some foreign anarchist just trying to stir up 💩?

They controlled the Senate & refused to grant Garland a hearing & rammed Barrett's confirmation through the Senate while early voting was underway.
We begged the electorate to consider the SCOTUS in 2016 & they ignored us, just like in 2024.

We could’ve had a liberal SCOTUS had people voted in the 2014 midterms to keep the Democrats in control of the Senate or if they elected HRC in 2016.
This is what happens when voters don’t use their heads & either refuse to vote or vote 3rd Party.

The conservatives don’t respect stare decicis & have been the only SCOTUS in history to take rights away from Americans.
Soon they’ll rehear Louisiana v. Callais & gut the VRA to legalize racial gerrymandering, giving the GOP 19+ seats & a permanent House majority.

Unless Dems flip Senate seats in ME, the other 4 battleground state seats & 8+ in red states without losing any, we’re stuck with what we have.

Without a trifecta & 67 Senate seats, there isn't a chance in hell that any justice will be convicted if they're impeached, especially if doing so will allow the Democrats to remove a GOP-appointed justice & replace them with a liberal.
Voters blew it in 2016.

Nothing will disrupt their power or prevent them from ruling how the GOP wants in every single case they hear & the only way we'll ever have a normal SCOTUS in our lifetimes is if at least 4 seats are added by a Democratic POTUS.

It may be impossible to reverse the damage Trump caused but we need to flip the House & at least ME & NC in 2026 & win the presidency, keep the House & flip the Senate in 2028.

Even with a slim House majority & a 50-50 Senate, the Democrats were also able to get numerous pieces of bipartisan legislation passed including:
