Congressional Democrats plan to unveil legislation expanding the size of the Supreme Court on Thursday, according to three congressional sources familiar with the closely held measure.
The bill would add four seats to the high court, bringing the total to 13, from the current 9. The number of justices on the Court has fluctuated widely throughout the course of the nation’s history. Republicans currently hold 6 seats, while Democrats hold just 3 after the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg and the quick confirmation of Justice Amy Coney Barrett.
The bill is led by House Judiciary Committee Chair Jerry Nadler, Subcommittee chair Hank Johnson, and freshman Rep. Mondaire Jones.
In the Senate, the bill is being championed by Ed Markey of Massachusetts.

House and Senate Democrats will reportedly announce the plan on Thursday
The plan will see four new justices added to the nine-member Supreme Court
Republicans warned during the election that Democrats would try and change it

Meh, appointing commissions are often a way to make it appear as if they’re doing something when they’re not, actually lol.
When they actually put it up for a vote you can start to worry. I think Biden is throwing the radicals a bone here.
And yes, radicals is the proper term.

looking forward to the shooting war...........a bunch of you fucking statists need to be exterminated
A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.
would be just another legislative body
I like the idea that the Court would swing more slowly if we had more members. Precedent would remain precedent longer and no single fuck up like trump could has as much effect on the Court.
