    Maybe I’m missing something. While Biden might not have publicly said the words “I’m in favor of packing the SCOTUS”, isn’t it reasonable to infer that he’s in favor of it by his creating a panel or commission to study the court, with one of the items examined being the number of seats on the court? He certainly isn’t going to create a panel to look into something he’s firmly against.

    Golf is a relatively simple game, played by reasonably intelligent people, stupidly.

    Yeah, you can't have a reasonable debate with these leftist because their arguments are usually so disingenuous.

    Wait, are you suggesting that appointing, holding hearings, then confirming someone to fill SCOTUS vacancies was "stuffing the court"?

    And yes, there are plenty of Dems (but I don't know Biden specifically) have suggested expanding the SCOTUS by 4 to regain the majority. But the Republicans can then appoint 4, 6, maybe even 100 more justices in 2025. Stupid games.

    First of all I’m not a leftist.

    Second of all, it’s a bipartisan commission.

    Third of all, you can infer all all you want but he never said he wanted it, which is what lou said he did.

    I mean the report is public, so we don't have to guess at what they recommended. It contains such sweeping takes as:

    "As we noted at the outset of this Part, there is profound disagreement amongCommissioners over whether adding Justices to the Supreme Court at this moment in time would be wise. As a Commission we have endeavored to articulate the contours of that debateas best as we understand them, without purporting to judge the weight of any of the argumentsoffered in favor or against calls to increase the size of the Court."

    https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-conten...port-Final.pdf

    I would assume if he wanted to expand the Supreme Court, and had the votes to do it, he would just do it. Retaining a bi-partisan commission to analyze potential reforms to safe guard the court from either party playing politics with it likely would do nothing to help, as it would (and it does) articulate all of the arguments against that position.

    So, you want us here to think you are a middle of the road Blue Dog? Stop the charade or start being pragmatic with common sense and stop with the MSM shell game.

    I already said I wasn’t a “lefty.” Whether you choose to believe it or not is your issue.

    By pragmatic and common sense, do you mean believing everything the rnc and newsmax tells you?

    WTF...Newsmax? Never spent 1 minute there. I am FAR more interested in what the propaganda wing of the Democratic Party (MSM) regurgitates on a 24 hr cycle. The radical left agenda is up front and personal....ZERO attempt to deceive any longer these days.

    That said, can you point to any posts here where you are not FIRMLY on team LIB?

    Happy 4th of July!

    Here's some holiday wishes from the propaganda wing of the Democratic Party (MSM) from the noted and biased LIB writer in the WSJ.

    Happy 246th Fourth of July to the great and fabled nation that is still, this day, the hope of the world.

    Exactly!

    Next he's going to tell us that Andrew Yang ran as a Republican in 2020.
