once they control the house and senate in November?

"Presidential Approval Needed: Increasing the number of Supreme Court justices is done via a bill passed by both the House and Senate, which must be signed by the President to become law.Veto Override: If the President vetoes such a bill, Congress would need to override the veto with a two-thirds majority in both the House and the Senate.Appointment Power: Even if Congress passes a law to increase the number of seats, the new seats remain vacant until the President nominates individuals and the Senate confirms them".

I guess we could do it but we need we need 2/3 in the House and Senate and the POTOS still can appoint them. I'm so depressed!

Should they? Probably. Will they? No.

Partially because they can’t and partially because they don’t actually want to.
Because when the Republicans get back in power they’ll just make it 19 or bring it back to 9.
This system is so broken and fuqed the whole thing needs to be trashed.

Come on Roosevelt wanted to ad 15 back in the 30's. I don't know why we are still being so weak on this adding 4 seats just so we can get a tiny 1 majority vote maybe. Stop worrying about trying to appear fair peoples rights are being strip away and we aren't going to be able to depend on restoring them with a 1 vote majority. If we ever get back enough power to add Justices to the Supreme Court then we need to go for the throat and we going to need to get some new States too.

So we don't need to limit it to 13 because there are 13 federal districts

The constitution has no such rule. Again we don't need to try and be fair.

They have weaponized the Supreme Court to take people rights away
1 hr ago
and even the right for people to have representation. What's least controversial should not be a concern for us. We should also weaponize the Supreme Court to restore and protect peoples rights. Neither should we worry about protecting the institution of the Supreme Court, because it's already rotten to the core. Adding just 4 seats only gives us a 1 seat majority and there is no guarantee all 4 of them will vote to restore Roe V Wade, repeal citizen united or vote to stop taking us back to the Jim Crow era and many other things. Adding significantly more seats would give us a cushion to get people their rights back quickly instead of having to possibly have to wait another 100 or even 200 years. People rights are more important then having a neat looking procedure. Besides if the people could have a constitutional amendment limiting the number of Justices then they could get one adding term limits to Supreme Court Justices too.

and there is nothing sacred about the number 9. I'd be happy even with 11, especially if we can impeach Clarence and Slimy Sam.

I want 6 new States too
2 hrs ago
Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam,Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa and Washington D.C. and the 12 new Senators that go with them which would give us some leverage protecting the new majority on the Supreme Court for a while.

Glad to still see you around DB!

Remember, the LAST thing our FOUNDING FATHERS made was a democracy. We have a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC, which the democrats HATE. They started a WAR in 1863, just so they could have their way and KEEP THEIR SLAVES!!

They never can answer when it’s suggested they run better candidates who appeal to voters and could possibly win elections.
When I suggested this to a lib the response was the red area population was voting against their own interest & it was dems job to show them their better way, not to pivot and be more moderate to earn their votes.

They see the voters as flawed & stupid, not their candidates.

That guy in Maine has the right idea: flash some white trash vibes, break with libs, earn votes from the center, get elected.

There should be a straight grid superimposed on populated areas, the way Lewis & Clark documented the US with a grid to organize. Plop a grid over a city, each square is a district, all will be a mix of voters. Not drawing & redrawing ridiculous borders that look like spaghetti to round up votes for one side or the other.

Libs would much rather cheat than run a Bill Clinton-like moderate strong on immigration.

You realize that retribution is coming, right?

Paris (for example) has a geometric system to divide the city into 20 arrondisements, based on a spiral. Spaced out relatively equally, no spaghetti shaped tangled shapes trying to round up their blacks & foreigners.
Unfortunately Paris is infested with Muslims everywhere past the tipping point.
