NYC Progressives Call on Schumer to Expand Supreme Court or Be Held ‘Accountable’

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi cited population growth as a justification for the potential court-packing push during a Monday night interview.

Asked on MSNBC whether she is “open to efforts” to add seats to the Supreme Court, known as packing the court, Pelosi left the question open.

Salary Council Chairman Resigns in Protest of Trump Order Politicizing Federal Workforce

The order instructs agencies to identify which positions qualify as policy-making and transfer existing career workers into the new job classification, stripping them of their civil service protections and making them effectively at-will employees. OPM last week told agencies that they would have wide latitude in deciding which jobs would meet the requirements for the new Schedule F, exacerbating fears among federal employee groups and good government experts that the White House plans to sidestep more than a century of civil service laws.








Shit is real folks.

Keep pushing.

For those that missed her swearing in speech, I'll post it. Senator Graham said it was the most articulate statement he had ever heard outlining what a Conservative Justice believes and will bring to the court. This is one very impressive jurist.


Leaving out of the thank you's, this was the meat of the speech.


The confirmation process has made ever clearer to me one of the fundamental differences between the federal judiciary and the United States Senate. And perhaps the most acute is the role of policy preferences. It is the job of a Senator to pursue her policy preferences. In fact, it would be a dereliction of duty for her to put policy goals aside. By contrast, it is the job of a judge to resist her policy preferences. It would be a dereliction of duty for her to give into them. Federal judges don’t stand for election, thus they have no basis for claiming that their preferences reflect those of the people.



This separation of duty from political preference is what makes the judiciary distinct among the three branches of government. A judge declares independence, not only from Congress and the President, but also from the private beliefs that might otherwise move her. The Judicial Oath captures the essence of the judicial duty. The rule of law must always control.




My fellow Americans, even though we judges don’t face elections, we still work for you. It is your Constitution that establishes the rule of law and the judicial independence that is so central to it. The oath that I have solemnly taken tonight means at its core that I will do my job without any fear or favor and that I will do so independently of both the political branches and of my own preferences. I love the Constitution and the Democratic Republic that it establishes, and I will devote myself to preserving it. Thank you.

How Mitch McConnell Delivered Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s Rapid Confirmation


https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/27/u...firmation.html


Mr. McConnell’s reshaping of the courts was the result of a strategic plan by a man who became obsessed with the Senate’s role in filling the federal judiciary during his early days as a staff aide during the Nixon administration. While he could not predict that his blockade of Mr. Obama’s 2016 nominee, Judge Merrick B. Garland, would pay political dividends, the vacancy was credited with solidifying conservative support needed to elect Mr. Trump in 2016.

With Mr. Trump headed to the White House, Mr. McConnell immediately began planning with Donald F. McGahn II, the incoming White House counsel, to set up a confirmation assembly line to fill the dozens of lower federal court seats that Mr. McConnell had held vacant in the last two years of the Obama presidency. Republicans changed longstanding Senate practices to speed their work along by denying Democrats procedural tools to block nominees.








Payback's a bitch.

Poor 9500- the number of foolish memes shows just how upset the DPST's are about barret - and as Schumer vowed 'revenge' - 9500 and ilk are planning to pack the SC if they get the Senate.

Pray they don't - for freedom and representative democracy - all of which 9500 and ilk hate in favor of a Che' totalitarian 'Paradise"!
DPST's are existential threats to the Constitution and Rule of law - they have made that clear.

Vote - and be very afraid of the results if DPST;s take the Senate!

Understanding how the Court’s approach to religious liberty has changed over time is important to understanding the Fulton case — and to understanding why the Fulton plaintiffs’ position is a radical break with nearly all of the Court’s previous precedents interpreting the Constitution’s free exercise protections.

A big reason why the Supreme Court’s religious liberty cases can be confusing is that the Court made an unfortunate choice of words in Sherbert. Sherbert held that the government typically cannot enforce a particular law against someone who objects to that law on religious grounds unless the government’s reasons for doing so are supported by a compelling state interest.
