Don't you think it's time for the liberal members of the SCOTUS to speak out?

I know, for good reason, that Justices don’t normally go around calling press conferences and talking to the press.

But the supposed “dignity” of the Court, which such customs are meant to protect, is dead already anyway.

I want to hear Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson publicly call out and denounce the flagrant corruption of their colleagues.

It is past time to debate about adding members to the Supreme Court. Don't know if we can do it but that is the only answer to the Supreme Court.

Republicans can play dirty but we must keep our heads above water, right up till the moment the Republicans hold our heads under water and kill us.

What a glorious legacy we'll have.

Hopefully Thomas gives us another seat soon. We must ensure tactically that we never let what happened to Ginsberg ever happen again versus trying to change the rules due to it.
