I hope republicans don't pack the court even more.

[Groundhawg]

I worry about this.

1. And to think, I got some heat earlier for wanting to put jury nullification on the table

Well, this has to be considered in light of this attack on the impartiality of the courts on top of the corruption of the Supreme Court. So I’m not asking, it should be used whenever you get the chance. It’s cool to nullify conservative laws.

2. and I hope that rain isn't wet

and bears don't shit in the woods.

They will do every underhanded scheme possible to increase and extend their power. That is why they have been packing the courts for decades now. They are playing the Long Game, always have.

3. Don't worry about it, they will.

[SoFlaBro]

4. MAGA is shit and whatever shits on what is left of the good part of this nation, they will fucking shit on.

[megahertz]

5. Of course they will.

[onenote]

6. there are 47 federal court vacancies at the moment. Only 17 have pending nominations.

Small silver lining: only two of the vacancies are for appeals court seats and there are pending nominations for both. However, there are other seats that might become vacant before Biden's term ends, or shortly afterwards.

[ForgedCrank]

7. I'm not

that great at predictions, but were I a betting man, I would bet that at the very least, Thomas will retire under Trumps watch so that seat can be cemented for them for another 3 decades. i wouldn't put it past them at all.

[Tickle]

11. Thomas and Alito

Both planning on retiring so I heard. Don't know how true it is

[bluestarone]

8. Well, I If i was a betting person

I would bet cannon will be a supreme court judge before TFG leaves office.

[kelly1mm]

9. Wait, isn't the idea that there should be 13 Supreme Court Justices, 1 for each federal circuit, still legitimate? nt

[vapor2]

10. Alito will retire but not sure about Thomas

but he will be replaced by another younger extreme conservative. Roberts has already given trump immunity so looking bleak
