    When you don't like court rulings you try to jam through legislation by any means necessary ;like Schmucky is trying to do with HR1 .

    I would have to remind you that Harry Reid was the one who broke the cloture rule for confirming justices. Back then it was called the 'nuclear option' .That came back to bite the Dems just like breaking the filibuster to jam through HR1 would . Once the horse is out of the barn don't expect the opposing party to put it back.

    Slick Mitch is not above throwing his word out the window to get what he wants, with not a peep from his fellow repubs. Same SCOTUS example from above. Doesn't matter to him.

    Why? Was it OK for the dems to do that, but not for repubs? Why OK for one but not the other?

    Which party has the majority of Supremes? What's the breakdown of repubs and dems?

    this is a non-issue.
    The Repubs have the majority but would've had it with or without the decision to block the Garland nomination . AND Kavanaugh and Barrett have hardly been the partisans that the Dems feared . There are 3 hard line partisan progressive living breathers . Threre are 3 hardline originalists . Kavanaugh Barrett and Chief Justice Roberts stick their fingers in the wind before ruling .

    Yeah we know repubs would rob the dems one way or another. More the reason for dems to unite and push the liberal agenda while they have a slim majority.

    update on an oldie

    Early voting is under way in Georgia and it is setting records for turnout that surpass 2020. (I think the Repubs got the message)

    This corrects for good the false narrative that says the Georgia voting laws that were passed to suppress turnout . Over 291,700 people have voted ..... 268,050 in person and 23,690 absentee.Will Clueless Joe retract his inflamatory comments that the Georgia law was "Jim Crow 2.0" ?

    BTW ,this is a trend in all the GOP states that updated their elections laws. As of yesterday over five million people have already voted in the 2022 general election.

    I don't know that even the democrats believed that. It was just a political mantra needed to keep minority voters scared enough to continue to vote democrat. The truth rarely enters into consideration anymore. The media is supposed to be the great arbitrator in that regard, but most of them are now just political advocates for the democrat party.
