While the media chooses to focus on Roy Moore and other issues, and while Trump desperately tries to distract from the Mueller investigation, the GOP has stolen one SCOTUS seat and is rapidly reshaping the Judicial branch of government.

(15,334 posts)Retrumplicans have shown us that rules and traditions don't matter one fuck.
I want Dems when they control the House to increase the number of federal judges so that whatever the current makeup is, we can create a 3-4 judge majority on every court. Then I want a mass hearing and confirmation vote... maybe 1,000 judges all at once...in a damn football stadium.
Then I want them to reduce the budget for Staff for every Donnie Short Fingers judge to zero.
Then I want them to impose that rule where they can reduce any federal government employee salary to $1, and make that the annual salary for every Donnie Short Fingers judge.
Then I want to gerrymander the fuck out of the country so Cletus from Dumbfuckistan Pennsylvania will vote in the downtown Philly precinct.
The Donnie Short Fingers judges that don't resign willingly will then be impeached by any means necessary.
If you haven't noticed by now... I fucking hate Retrumplicans and believe that they must be punished for what they did to our country
