How about packing the Supreme Court?

Thats four more senators for them.
Its 51 votes needed in the Senate.
It effectively means our 3rd branch of government is subservient to congress.

No checks and balances.
Permanent control of senate.

It changes our whole form of Government. You cannot have a Republic if the Constitution doesn't prevail. With no real Supreme Court, who is the final arbiter of Constitutionality?

If you don't thing this is our immediate greatest threat as a nation, you are insane.

And the idea of setting this treason into motion by handing elections to the irresponsible, treasonous group of communists we call Democrats sickens me.

Give it all up for Israel I guess. Is that the ticket?

Are you laying the groundwork for a claim of “rigged elections” in the fall or just turning the concept of “checks and balances on its head?

You make no sense. Drop the quips and lay out your arguments as to how a packed court doesnt effect checks and balances?

There shouldn't really be permanent residents in D.C. anyway, give all the land that isnt being used by the federal government back to Maryland and Virginia. Washington D.C. was set up to specifically not be a state.

Puerto Rico should be cut off from the US entirely before ever becoming a state. It has no actual advantage to us and is a massive money pit. No reason at all to bring them in as a state. At least Guam has military value, south Florida functions perfectly fine as our military hub in the carribean region.

I probably agree with the point you are making in the OP, but your post is difficult to follow and reads like a stream of conscious thought.

What can you do about it? You could see your country sailing away right under your nose. They are revolutionaries who want to do revolutionary things. I wonder if my Senator Ted Cruz is up to the task?

He can't. VOR is likely a good democrat who is excited about becoming a good Marxist.

I don't know why this is getting downvotes. The short sightedness is incredible.

At some point a third party will rise from the center. It’ll be guys like dick Durban on one side, and tom cornyn on the other. They’ll have piles of money to beat away the radical left or right as independents.

They will do it.

Muslims aren't in favor of killing people, until they have the majority.

His threads are almost always of an unconscious thought. I don't bother with him anymore.

I've seen people say they should only allow a standing filibuster. Who is saying we should remove the filibuster completely?

Until they find a suicide bomber.

Fixed.

He is incapable of a discussion so he makes his usual childlike retort then leaves. Deep down I suspect he knows he is a dumbass but can’t help himself
