Today Robert Hubbell points out that the Democrats could have changed much of what’s happening by expanding the Supreme Court.  They controlled  the House, the Senate, and the Presidency from 2021 to 2023. Expanding the Court required only the passage of the bill by a majority vote in both chambers of Congress (and creating a carve-out in the filibuster, which requires only a majority vote).

They didn’t act and now we deal with these biased rulings. Hubbell gives a partial and devastating list.

Dobbs (overruling Roe v Wade), Trump v. US (fabricating presidential immunity out of whole cloth), Bruen (concealed carry of handguns in public is a universal right), Bremerton (okay for football coach to lead public school athletes in prayer at midfield after games), Cargill (a bump-stock rifle that can fire 13 rounds per second is not a “machine gun”), and Snyder (bribes given as “thank you gifts” are not illegal). 

These days I hear leaves falling.  They make a sound as they swish through the air and land.  We, too, sound and resound.
