    Nominate the six judges to lower court positions

    The constitution only says that being a federal judge is permanent, not necessarily being a justice.

    I think this would absolutely be the play to burn the bridges with the obstruction caucus among the senate dems, just hit them with the full weight of that bully pulpit devil may care.

    These judges have gone rogue and it is absolutely worth making Joe Manchin mad to remind the courts they’re servants of the people.

        “John Marshall has made his decision, now let him enforce it.”

        Marbury v Madison is how the courts gave themselves the right of judicial review, and everyone just kinda agreed. And they just gutted separated powers.

        The Robert’s court has destroyed its legitimacy, both in opinion and ethics. It’s time to clean house, and fix the top court.

        Not really, I’m pretty sure laws about the courts are necessarily part of the exemption clause, because why should the people a rule is being written to correct the behavior of get to just say no to the new rule?
