Hey, stay on script. Anything Democrats do is inherently pro-democracy, you see. Only Republicans are capable of being dishonest, partisan, hypocritical hacks.

The court that Republican Senate illegally unconstitutionally packed with Trump appointees, yes.

EXCUSE me, but why do you think the Chief Justice should “chine (sic) in”? Yes he is the “head” of the Judicial Branch as a whole but that is just ceremonial. He can’t “chine (sic) in” on matters that might come before SCOTUS.

Plus, don’t you realize he would AGREE that troublesome courts need to be eliminated? Not to mention other Judicial organizations that cause problems. The Federal Public Defenders constantly undercut the rest of the Judiciary with their demands for more more more. Wouldn’t it make sense for the most wasteful, like the ones who drag out death penalty cases, to get eliminated or go through some things? I’m sure the Chief Justice thinks so, but he’s supposed to “chine in”?

Send it back to your supervisor for review, Boris. USA has rule of law. No, we don't think it makes sense for the dictator to to just kill anyone he doesn't like with without proving a crime.

Facing pressure from his right flank to take on judges who have ruled against President Donald Trump, Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., on Tuesday floated the possibility of Congress eliminating some federal courts.

“We do have the authority over the federal courts, as you know. We can eliminate an entire district court. We have power of funding over the courts and all these other things,” Johnson told reporters on Tuesday. “But desperate times call for desperate measures, and Congress is going to act.”

They pretty much say it all out loud....they tell us they want to destroy America. Their reason....POWER. Now I guess we should all be grateful and say thank you. It all has gone too far and it's only two months.

Or maybe you could not do illegal things.

Tough choices.

He looks like a little leprechaun. I am surprised they picked him to lead.

Did that actually happen? No. We are talking about reality here where the Republicans are corrupting our government.

It's like this is the last thrones to keep power. Knowing that eventually the pendulum will swing back. So this is building walls to keep it from moving.

Apples and oranges. Neither the Democrat president or the speaker of the house EVER suggested doing away with courts or ranted about impeaching any judge they disagreed with.

Johnson is as corrupt as Trump.

When Kevin McCarthy was picked to be Speaker, they picked him because he was dumb enough to agree to do it. When they fired him, they had to find someone even dumber.

Only Scotus is constitutional. Congress can add, delete or modify each district court

Congress can. The Legislature not the Executive

Just appeal and live the results. But they are worried because it is so egregious so go ahead and just eliminate federal courts.

Trump had two appeals courts agree with him yesterday and stayed two district court orders.

Why does he want his kids and grandchildren to live in dictatorship? It’s really mind boggling that he wants to take away their livelihood, their heath, their security, and their freedom. They’ll all be looking over their shoulders. That’s how life is in China and Russia. If he gets on someone’s bad side, he’ll be sent to the gulag. Happens all the time.

He must be sick in the head. It literally makes no sense.

Because he thinks he will still be near the top of the pyramid.
