Well, it was another banner week from the six unelected zealots who apparently make all of America’s public policy decisions.

    This smells like a rightwing double-headfake shit shot. Newsweek is owned by a conservative, and Congress adds seats, not Biden.

    The Constitution does not stipulate the number of Supreme Court Justices; the number is set instead by Congress.

    The intent here is to make you disappointed in Biden. It’s a trick as we head into campaign season.

    Good luck having congress add seats to supreme court while it’s divided.

      Why is this downvoted? Biden can’t do whatever he wants with no checks and balances, he’s not a dictator.

      But unfortunately the supreme court does get to do whatever they want, even ruling on fake cases now.
