Okay, so they’ll get one justice whose influence will be sufficiently diluted by the other twelve.

The dose makes the poison.

Yeah, people make it way too easy for the entrenched powers to manipulate them. At this point if the republicans hold onto a thin senate majority, I won’t have any sympathy for the dumbass voters who fell for such a transparent tactic again.

We won’t be able to fix our broken system until we stop proving that uncorroborated mudslinging works better than actually offering good policy.

Peer review by whom?

If you mean an independent commission, some states already use those for redistricting. There’s no need for a computer program.

Or do you mean by state legislatures, that’s already what the most heavily gerrymandered states already use for redistricting. It would make no difference if they were simply “approving” a computer-generated district map (made with algorithms designed by whom?).

The computer program you suggest is entirely unnecessary and superfluous.

That scenario would involve Congress and his nominated justices going along.

Ah, and as we’ve all seen that could never happen… 🙄

I have that guy tagged as a right-winger

You could save more pennies by defunding ICE and by stopping the use of american taxpayer dollars to support israel’s welfare state.

A computer program can be biased, if the software developers who write it are biased.

Also, a six year term on SC Justices would mean that any time there’s a two-term president, by the end of the second term, literally every single SC Justice would have been selected by the same president. That’s a terrible idea.

A 10-year term at least guarantees that there’s a different president in office when one is up for reappointment, and they can be staggered to avoid appointing all at once. But even that’s not so great of an idea, because it would be too volatile. Every time a new president comes in, he would get rid of all or most of his predecessor’s appointments. That wouldn’t restore non-partisanship to the courts, it would make things worse.

I prefer the idea of one SC Justice for each Federal Circuit, raised directly from the Circuit itself

I think it’s a whole company. They got “private jets” listed as “green transportation.”

Words are fucking meaningless these days.

All I know is that the state of israel has a vested interest in preventing him from getting elected, as do the centrist democrats, and the entire republican party.

And this woman waits till now to bring this up? Smells like a hit job to me. Especially when you consider that this is Politico…

Now that’s thinking with your brain!

I’m not taking you anywhere, weirdo. I want off this train like everyone else. If you’re trying to blame Jack Smith though, you’re going after the wrong guy.

I guess you just want to blame everybody for everything though. Did you even vote?

If it’s this easy to sling allegations around then progressive candidates everywhere are fucked.

Why bother voting when you can just accuse a candidate of rape? It’s super effective, apparently. Unless they’re a republican, at least…

Yeah, smells like a hit job.

“TropicalDingDong sexually assaulted me five years ago and I had texts to prove it but I deleted them all. See, look at these emails I exchanged with my therapist last week about it. If you don’t believe me, just listen to my anonymous friends who I confided in at the time.”

See how credible that is?

That’s not gonna happen. If a time traveler was sent to kill them, it would’ve happened years ago…
