“Even if expanding the Court would momentarily shake its authority,” I said in voting for our report, “that risk is worth taking” to prevent the Court from being the “handmaiden” to democracy’s destruction rather than democracy’s guardrail. https://t.co/jfp3mU4UaI — PolitiTweet.org

“This is a uniquely perilous moment that requires a unique response,” Judge Gertner said, adding, “Whatever the costs of expansion in the short term will be more than counterbalanced by the real benefits to judicial independence and to our democracy.” https://t.co/jVu9WmoBNR — PolitiTweet.org

Ruth Marcus shreds Justice Kavanaugh’s phony “neutrality” argument about abortion. But count on him to look the other way and ignore logic. Why? Because he can. https://t.co/cDOU6XAjrx — PolitiTweet.org

This nightmarish scenario can't be ruled out. Trump would be the first Speaker of the House who was never elected to Congress, but he's been lots of "firsts," including the first president to be impeached twice and the first among equals to the title of worst president ever. — PolitiTweet.org

Even delaying Bannon's trial till next July, as the court has done, seems excessive. Delaying it until October as Bannon has requested would be an outrage. The issues are cut and dried, and justice delayed in this case would truly be justice denied. — PolitiTweet.org

That Trump tried to stop Congress from certifying his defeat, by force if necessary, is increasingly clear. Only 2 explanations for Garland’s inaction: 1. He doubts such an effort constitutes a coup attempt; 2. He has decided former presidents are immune. https://t.co/kDnug0YPhg — PolitiTweet.org
