  1. In my opinion, I think the US Supreme Court should always have an equal amount of Justices from both sides of the Isle. And I think that number should be 12 Justices. Six of them Republicans and the pother six Democrats or Independents leaning to one side or the other. When cases come up, Either the Vice President of the Secretary of State should pull the names of 9 Justices at random. Therefore none of the Justices would know if they would preside over a case until their names are called. You could have a majority of Democratic leaning Justices or you could have a majority of Republican leaning Justices, but it would never be the same majority all the time. To me, that’s the only way the Supreme Court could successfully proceed. Just my opinion.

  2. Of course the biggest threat is the proposed expansion just because one party controls Congress but doesn't like the current makeup of SCOTUS. So Dems would add four justices and then the other side could use that as a basis in the future to do the same. But media doesn't like to talk about this.

  3.

  4. I still feel that if we have a 2 & 1/2 term limit (or 10 year maximum) for the Presidency and a majority of Governors have term limits, we should have term limits for all members of the House (I say 10, 2 year terms), Senate (3, 6 year terms), and Judicial Branch (at most 20 years). I feel this is the only way to ensure we prevent complicity in our government by constantly changing it!

  6. I can't find where Justice Sotomayor spoke up about this during the extreme partisanship of the democratic party regarding nominees Neil Gorsuch (54-45 vote), Brett Kavanaugh (50-48 vote), and Amy Coney-Barrett (52-48 vote). And an interesting reference point is that Ruth Bader Ginsberg was confirmed 96-3. What you are seeing here is a Supreme Court Justice being completely political and obviously injecting herself into the political discourse. And THAT is exactly the sort of justice we should not want on the Supreme Court.

  13. The integrity of SCOTUS must be retained and upheld! So we must do what it takes in law passes to insure this. Otherwise, what’s the point in having them as in each state?

  15. I see a threat of the breakdown of the rule of law. Some people are not held accountable to the law, while others are not given equal opportunities under our criminal justice system. Women have been set back by the conservative ruling against Roe v Wade.
    The Republican party unfairly stacked the court with radical right wing Justices. It is time for scholars, lawyers, philosophers,
    Scientists, law makers, and other deep thinking people to come together and refine our laws, so that they can't be so broadly interpreted.
    It has been 245years since the continental congress gathered to declare independence and create a revolutionary Democratic government, By the people, of the people, and for the people.
    We have yet to achieve the vision that they spelled out in the bill of rights.
    The people who wrote our constitution never saw the gun technology that came about due to the industrial revolution, and the wars that were fought in the 19th and 20th century. If they had been able to see into the future, they would have written more detailed instructions about our right to bear arms. They were intelligent enough to realize that they couldn't see into the future, so they wrote laws that could be broadly interpreted, so that people in the future could tweak them as necessary.
    If they could spend a month in present day ,
    They would amazed and dumbfounded at the advancement of technology, and how we have applied the words that they had written in order to address the issues of 1776. Some of these men were slave owners. Most of them were white supremacists. Almost all of them came from a privileged family who had the money to educate them as they were growing up. We are coming to a cross road in time. Our direction has become more uncertain, because our road map needs to be updated so that our laws and understanding of our rights can be applied to our modern day society, and government institutions. We can come up with educated and well thought out ideas, that represent our situation in the 21st century. We don't need to fight another civil war, in order to bring about the changes in our constitution that need to be made. Or to make the laws that need to be made. But we do need some educated men and women who care about people, human rights, civil rights, and the rule of law. We have yet to achieve equality. People believe there right to own a gun trumps other people's rights to life and liberty.
    If people have a right to carry a gun everywhere they go, then I have a right to make a place where they are not allowed to come. I have a right to live and travel to places where guns are not allowed. The revolution of the 1960s is under threat.
    The peaceful Hippie Revolution that gave us more freedom than we ever had before, is being chipped away at by people who are trying to destroy our rights to peacefully assemble and share ideas through music and art. We can't have large gatherings for concerts if people are going to be allowed to take guns into the venues. The laws that Republicans are putting into our society that allow for guns to be carried in this way , are threatening our liberty, and our ability to have large gatherings. We have one mass shooting after another, and we need a law that addresses this issue.
    The 2nd amendment needs to be defined.
    We should think of creative ways to keep guns out of the hands of people who are not responsible enough to own them. We should definitely have a system of licensing, and classification, so that people who want to own assault rifles ,and are responsible enough to own one, have a path that spells out how they can obtain one.
    They should have to pay a license fee, they should have to pass a written test, they should obtain a doctor's note of mental health, and they should have a test that demonstrates their ability to take care of and safely operate the fire arm. Just like owning a car, and getting a driver's license. And people should have to renew their gun licenses after a certain amount of time goes by. People should have to pay a yearly tax fee in order to possess and operate certain firearms. This will require a lot of thought, to create this system. But if we want to preserve our second amendment, then we need to ensure that our gun laws line up with our other constitutional rights. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Putting more guns on the streets has made us less safe. The NRA has become a political campaign tool for radical right wing extremists, who use the NRA to spread deceptive propaganda in order to advance their political agenda. They don't want people to be safe. They want people to be afraid.
    They are able to manipulate people in this way. The federal government has to take up this issue. It is also tied to the first amendment, our freedom of speech.
    We do have freedom of speech. But we don't have freedom to incite violence and insurrection. We also don't have a right to slander someone's name or reputation.
    We need laws that specifically address government leaders, and organizations, who spread deceptive propaganda. It should be against the law to intentionally deceive the public about what they are voting for, or what the organization they are donating to is going to use their money to do. Candidates who lose elections, cannot just claim that the election was rigged, without any evidence to prove this claim. It is an attack on our Democracy. Saying it once is exercising freedom of speech. But continuing to make this claim over and over again, and spreading this deceptive propaganda through the media should be against the law. And people who Break this law should face hard time. It is an attack on our people and our government to do this. The president and other elected officials can't be allowed to deceive people in this way.
    Politicians who are using these tactics are not qualified to hold office. We need a test that people should have to pass in order for them to qualify for office of president. Each government office should have its own test and list of qualifications. We can't allow people who are unqualified to do a job, to enter the election in the first place. Anyone who wishes to be president must first obtain the qualifications, and pass a test. It doesn't help for someone to take an oath to uphold the constitution, if they don't understand the constitution. If a person cannot read, he is not qualified to hold public office. If a person cannot concede when they lose an election, then they are by default, not qualified to hold the office to begin with. If Trump had to pass a test, and obtain qualifications to run for office, he would have never been allowed on the ticket. He has held the Republican party hostage. The Republican party has been using lies to get votes, campaign contributions, and support. We need to update our system.
    This way people can know who and what they are voting for.
    And people won't be easily deceived.

  20. She is a threat to the Supreme Court. Quote…there are 100,000 children in the hospitals with covid, most are on ventilators.

    The truth….at the time she said that, there were less than 3600 children in hospitals with covid. Another lying liberal

  21. Once SCOTUS overstepped their authority to decide a state’s internal issue, in Bush v. Gore, and, for the ONLY time in history, issued a decision that wasn’t to be used as judicial precedent, the naked truth became evident to everyone.

    SCOTUS is partisan and political.

    Since then, anything that helps Republicans and isn’t nakedly against the Constitution is completely okay.

    Racism in drawing districts? Yup.
    Gerrymandering (election fraud)? Yup.
    Unlimited dark money? Yup.
    Foreign money? Yup.
