Your country is on the edge of changing forever. And not in a good way/ There are currently bills in each chamber about ADDING FOUR JUDGES to the SUPREME COURT. Or packing the court. And of course the Democrat/liberal president and democrat/liberal congress will pack the court with 4 (The number of judges in both bills) liberal judges.If these bills become law the country is over. DONE=ENDED=FINISHED. I don't care what side you are on. but 1 side in comp[ete control scares the hell out of me. The current democrat ultra left democrat party is planning nothing less than a takeover. A c**p.A legal one perhaps but a c**p just the same. Lets see. Packing the court. making DC a state. putting the federal government in charge of presdential e******n regulations. These 3 changes that the democrats will make will forever make the country unrecognizeable from the one we now inhabit. Be afraid. It just might happen

Well before you freak out on this, remember that originally, the Supreme Court had six justices. Then in 1801 that number was reduced to five justices. Then in 1807, it was increased to seven justices. In 1837 that number was increased to nine. But, it didn't end there. In 1869 it was reduced to six justices, again. However, in 1869, it was increased again to nine justices.
So the moral of the story is, there's nothing sacred about the number of justices on the Supreme Court and the legeslation will pass or fail on its political merits.
This is not a c**p. Not a legal or an illegal one. Remember the McConnell rule of not passing justices in the last year of a President's term, unless that President is a Republican. Well payback's a b***h.
In the words of that 2001 box office disaster, "Get Over It".

Never beforehas the court been changed by 4 judges. Never before has the house tried (HR-1) to end the state legislators method of electing a president and replace it with a centtral government plan. Never befoe has ther been a multi TRILLION dollar bill to socially engineer the population (Green new deal is not infrastructure-health care is not infrastructure. Never before has a multi trillion dollar bill fo c***d relief contain onluy 8 % for c***d relief/ A tunnel for Pelosi, a Bridgre for Cuomo is not c***d relief. Hispanics largely v**e democrat- hence thd border crisis. Catch and release and path to citizenship is nothing more than v**er demographic change from red states to blue. In your words Get Over It. It's nothing more than a democrat plan for CONTROL It has nothing to do with making the country better

I guess it might, but you've never been right in any of your predictions, so I don't know why I should believe you now.
