I cannot say it better than two members of the liberal bloc on the Court, Justice Ginsberg and Justice Breyer: changing the number of justices on the Court does tremendous damage to the Court itself.
Those pushing this idea are among the most liberal in the entire Congress.
They are trying to dilute the conservative majority of the Court by implementing the radical policy of Court-packing.
If successful, this would inevitably lead to changing the number of Supreme Court Justices every time there is a shift in power.
Over time that would surely make the Supreme Court a political football, destroying its effectiveness and independence.
It’s why I and so many others strongly oppose this most radical, destabilizing idea for the Rule of Law in America.

The @60Minutes story accusing Governor DeSantis of pay to play regarding vaccine distribution was a terrible political hit job.
@60Minutes has a long history of investigating abuse of power. Unfortunately, it is clear to me the segment on Governor DeSantis was about creating a narrative, not reporting the facts.
We now know that the Mayor of Palm Beach county’s statements would’ve changed the entire narrative about pay to play. It is clear to me it was intentionally left out.
@MLB This is an insult to the people of Georgia who are trying to create a robust voting system and maintain integrity at the ballot box.
I promise you this will not go unanswered by legislative bodies and millions of Americans.
@MLB The good people of Georgia, remember President @JoeBiden called your efforts to secure voting ‘Jim Crow’ and supported a boycott of the All-Star game being played in Atlanta.
Georgia voting laws are not Jim Crow, they’re common-sense reforms to ensure robust and legal voting.
You need to go to the southern border and witness in person the biggest super spreader event in the nation – President @JoeBiden's immigration policies.
@JoeBiden Thousands of migrants from Central America are coming into the country with a 10% COVID-positive rate.
They have 900 people staying in a room built for 80 – overcrowded by more 1,000%!
@JoeBiden Migrants in these facilities are intermingled and on top of each other.
After being around COVID-positives, they are dumped off in Texas and taken to other parts of the country furthering the spread.
In 1994, there was an Assault Weapons Ban – the evidence indicates that there was really no change at all in crime, because the crooks are going to get a gun!
Today at @PalmettoArmory I fired one of the weapons they are trying to ban. #2A
@PalmettoArmory Now, why would anybody need to own an AR-15?
If there is a breakdown of law and order, and that can happen -- we've seen it happen in our major cities.
Remember Hugo, where people were isolated for days? Remember Katrina?
@PalmettoArmory It's not impossible to find yourself in the modern world without any police protection, because that's just the way the times are in which we live in.
Very pleased to hear that the Libyan parliament approved the proposed transitional administration. apnews.com/article/north-…
The interim unity government will need to unite a fractured nation to improve the lives of its people, provide essential services, and prepare for national elections in December.
It is imperative that the world community support Libya, because a stable Libya is good for North Africa and the world at large. It is now time for all mercenary forces to withdraw from Libya, give the Libyan people the breathing space to move forward together.
