Hey liar, since you have been shown to be a fool, and a liar, why not change the topic, right?

Now then, just to address your latest attempt at appearing "intelligent", and failing as usual, you do understand there is more then one way to "pack" a system (you are too stupid to understand this, as usual), and it does not require the increasing of numbers. It only requires setting the majority in your favor. Since most justices are picked from the lower Courts it is the method chosen by McConnell to insure two things:

1. That the lower Courts will rule in a way that advances the Republican agenda of fascism;

2. That SCOTUS will not reverse the rulings of the lower Court.

Thus the Courts are being "packed" with unqualified judges sympathetic to the cause of the right wing.

Total horse mierda.

Win the Senate and the presidency and your party will get to pick a S.C. Justice.

If the roles were reversed, the Democrats would do the exact same thing and you know it, old timer.
 
Dementia Joe...speak up, tell us if you plan to pack the court.

What are you...and Horizontal Harris hiding?

Don't think they would have to. However, how does that justify the lies, and hypocrisy, you support.

Nothing. Now, what is it about my response that has you gurgling your meal up?

And, as usual, you ignore the question simply because you ave no answer:

he phrase court packing hearkens back to President Franklin Roosevelt’s efforts to alter the makeup of the Supreme Court in the face of the court’s repeated decisions striking down his New Deal legislation. Roosevelt’s plan, which would have added up to six justices to the court, engendered significant opposition and was never enacted.

The last four years have seen conservatives—under the leadership of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and aided by organizations such as the Federalist Society and Judicial Crisis Network—embark on a similarly audacious plan to achieve their policy goals by altering the ideological bent of the courts, including the Supreme Court. Their plan, however, is subtler: Instead of adding justices in one fell swoop, they have been packing the federal courts through abuse of the Senate’s advice and consent power.
The conservative effort to pack U.S. courts

Conservatives’ stealth court-packing plan is a two-step approach. Step one: Steal seats by blocking the confirmation of judges until both the White House and the Senate are under conservative control. The most infamous example was the McConnell-led refusal to even hold a hearing for President Barack Obama’s nominee for the Supreme Court, Merrick Garland. But the treatment of Judge Garland was merely the most visible manifestation of a far-reaching scheme to hold judicial seats open until a conservative president could fill them. It was conservative efforts to prevent any appointments to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit—following five years of obstructing Obama’s judicial nominees—that finally led senators supportive of President Barack Obama’s nominees to eliminate the filibuster in 2013 when confirming lower-court judges.

During Obama’s last two years as president, the McConnell-led Senate majority confirmed the fewest judges in more than half a century, including only two appellate court judges. All told, McConnell and his conservative Senate allies held open more than 110 judicial seats by the end the Obama presidency. Conservative senators made clear that had Trump not won, efforts to hold seats open would have continued. John McCain stated in the run-up to the 2016 election that, “I promise you that we will be united against any Supreme Court nominee that Hillary Clinton, if she were president, would put up.”

Step two: After first preventing President Obama from appointing judges, change the nomination and confirmation process rules so that the most partisan conservative judges can be appointed at breakneck speed. First, conservative Senate leaders invoked the so-called nuclear option to allow Supreme Court justices to be confirmed through majority votes. Then they cut home-state senators out of the judicial nominations process, ending a century-old tradition of giving those senators a say in the judges that were confirmed. To further speed the process, they stopped working with the American Bar Association (ABA) to determine whether nominees were qualified to be judges, resulting in Trump nominating six nominees that the ABA deemed “not qualified.” In addition, they broke the Senate committee review process by packing hearings and markups with too many nominees to properly vet, including doing so twice when the Senate was actually in recess.

Since Bd schooled you as to court packing in his post no. 340, this is your only response to him in post no. 343.

"YAWN. And the ignorance just keeps flowing:"

You have responded to me, old timer but not to him.
 
Well, old timer, you appear to have depleted your wealth of disinformation as to “court packing.”

Desayuno beckons, fried pork tenderloin, biscuits and gravy and grits. My favorite.

Mas tarde.

Tell me again, how does the earth spontaneously increase in temperature without additional energy? Clearly, you have never set foot on a high school campus or taken a high school-level physics course.


Wrong. Industry certainly existed, but the Four Year Plan took all businesses out of the control of those who were supposedly the "owners" on paper and made Herman Goering the actual owner, President and CEO.


That's a euphemism for socialism, you moron. There is no such thing as a free market that is completely controlled by the state. Clearly, you have never taken a high school-level economics course.


Why are you trying to force the word "capitalism" to describe NAZI socialism?

I've heard people argue that NAZI socialism was a corruption of textbook Marxist socialism but you are the first I've seen work overtime to delude himself into believing that Hitler somehow wanted to bring capitalism to Deutschland.

First, why did you create this sock puppet?

Next, I recommend you actually take a university level European history class. It is an unequivocal fact that the German left, including the Social Democratic Party, were the only people in Germany offering resistance to Hitler and the Nazis. German conservatives were pretty much going along with Hitler, or keeping their heads down at best.

The fact that Hitler arrested, executed, and imprisoned members of the German political left is a testament to these historical facts. There is no amount of tap dancing that are going to change those facts.

For that matter, it was the French left which led the French resistance to Nazi occupation. The French right and the conservative Vichy were notorious collaborators
