On Tuesday, Just the News posted an article about a House of Representatives vote on a Constitutional Amendment to cap the U.S. Supreme Court at nine justices.
The article reports:
House Speaker Mike Johnson on Tuesday announced that the House would vote on a constitutional amendment to cap the number of justices on the Supreme Court at nine.
Speaking to reporters, Johnson criticized the Democratic Socialists of America over their calls to pack the Supreme Court and insisted the chamber would force Democrats to go on the record on the issue.
“So we’re going to put that bill on the floor tomorrow on suspension because it requires a 2/3 vote of both chambers of Congress to amend the Constitution,” he said. “And we will have them put their money where their mouth is.”
If the amendment is passed with a 2/3 vote, it will prevent the Democrats from adding four liberal justices to the Supreme Court, something they have said they will do if they gain control of Congress. They have also stated that they want to give Puerto Rico, Guam, and Washington, D.C., statehood (which would probably give them a permanent majority in Congress).
The Democrats have morphed into a political party that wants to be the only political party in America and hold power forever. This is not healthy for the country. The Democrats were depending on illegal alien voters to put them in power and keep them there, but the deportations and tightening of voter registration laws have made that less likely. Now they are threatening to add states to the union and justices to the Supreme Court.
If you value the America you have known, you will not vote for a Democrat this election. There may be local Democrats who love the country and will do a good job if elected, but on a national level, the Democrat has become something Democrats from the 1960’s or 1970’s would not recognize. The party that once represented the working man now only represents its own quest for more power.
